''Kevin & Perry Go Large'' is a 2000 British comedy film directed by [[Series/RedDwarf Ed Bye]], starring Harry Enfield and Kathy Burke.

Essentially, it is a coming-of-age story concerning the exploits of (as the title indicates) self-proclaimed 'superstar [=DJs=]' 'Kev P.' (Enfield) and 'Perr. E.' (Burke), as they holiday in Ibiza with Kevin's reluctant parents, Mr and Mrs Patterson (James Fleet and Louisa Rix). It should be noted that the characters of Kevin and Perry originated from Harry Enfield's sketch show, imaginatively titled ''Series/HarryEnfieldAndChums''.

Kevin and Perry are both approximately 16 years old, and behave as teenage boys typically would. During their time in Ibiza, they aim to lose their virginity to two equally hormone-addled and awkward girls, Candice and Gemma (Creator/LauraFraser and Tabitha Wady), and gain the friendship of the real superstar DJ du jour, Eyeball Paul (Rhys Ifans). HilarityEnsues.
