ABSOLUTLEY FABULOUS - THE TITLE SAY'S IT ALL!
|
| The beginning of series two (recorded in late 1993 and origanally transmitted in Britain in early 1994) got off to a great kick start with the classic episode, Hospital, where Patsy (played by delectable actress, Joanna Lumley) wishes to have cosmetic surgery but all goes horribly wrong. It was clear the series was back and was better than ever. Jennifer Saunders is even more flamboyant in the second series and is even more hilarious in doing so. It was quite obvious that the cast had become accustomed to their roles and it really shines through, with the series being in full swing. Both Saunders and Lumley sparkle together through these episodes as does the highly talented, Jane Horrocks in the role of the dizzy and totally incompetent, Bubbles. Horrocks is given more screen time than in the first series and her effective contribution is essential as are Joanna Sawahala as Edina's downtrodden daughter, Saffy and also June Whitfield in the amusing role of Edina's completley batty mother. All performances compliment the razor sharp script that bubbles with continually witty repartee. Totally superb. Other episodes on this video are classics (but then every episode of it's entire run was a classic) with Death, steering comfortably and gently into black comedy and the ultimate best on the video, Morrocco, where Eddy, Pats and Saffy go over there to promote Edina's new business venture, Pop Specs (the "in" sunglasses to wear, according to her). It's totally hilarious from beginning to end it's unique quality never falters. There has not been a funnier programme in Britain since this classic. Excellent and highly recommended! |
