Marianne and Anita on the 4th episode (Donkey) of the 4th season of the TV show "Absolutely Fabulous". Marianne plays God and Anita is the Devil. Year: 2001
“They won’t have any use for you and me soon.” “Oh frankly, I’m bored anyway. What’s the point of me if I’m acceptable?” This dialogue is absolutely flawless.
It is a miracle those two women are even alive! At least half their friends are dead from the drugs they injected and swallowed. Two fabulous women who lived life to the absolute fullest, and lived to tell about it. There's no one like them around anymore. Mundus senescit.
When I was a young girl my idol was Marianne and I fashioned my life around her, now I'm alot older, wiser, and more cynical and have become more and more like Anita everyday 😂😂😂
I adore this scene where she is lying on the bed and gets sung to! Beautiful and wish they had done it for longer like it said in the audio commentary on the DVD!
Faithfull is my goodess since I child Ive met both later in my late teens I hung out with ANITA and Johnny THUNDERS smoking reefer and drinking screw drivers from a juice jar once in Keith Richards silver cloud limo Anita passed the bottle to me and John said HEY theres REAL VODKA in there kid! and I said WELL I HOPE SO..he just looked surprised like WHOOP! I looked like a farm girl not a groupie punk John was old fashioned italain. Anita laughed..it was a very cool 4 me evening in NYC!
I love how to Edina Marianne Faithful IS God. She also appeared as God in a 1996 episodeof Ab Fab. "Will & Grace" totally ripped off this idea with Cher appearing in Jack's dream.
The episode is called "Donkey" and the song is played in the middle when Edina is on a diet and trying to lose weight, and it's her dream! From Absolutely Fabulous.
LOVE THIS EPISODE WHEN PAGE IS HAVING AN OUT OF EXPERIENCE O.D. DREAM.AND ANITA AS THE DEVIL AND MARIANNE AS THE ANGEL COME INTO HER DREAM.ABSOSOTY FABULOUS👍😴🍄🌱😲🤪😜🌻🦋🎉🎈🎠🎭🛸🕰🌞💧🔥☮️☯️💯🆒️👍.REST IN PEACE ANITA GODBLESS YOU. YOU WERE ALWAYS A COOL GIRL OF THE 60s.EVEN TODAY YOUR STYLE CARRYS ON.AND ID SAY MARIANNE REMEMBERS YOU EVERY DAY.🙏🕊🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🦋🦋🦉🐬🐬🐬🐬💯🆒️🙏AMEN🌹
They were BFFS in real life many yrs ago. Anita had musical background running in her family so she wasn’t simply a cute “ ornament girl to dangle at parties,Marianne ( here there both came in) were very intelligent women. Never ever say Anita was a groupie,man. Or that Marianne is. Then you’re ignorant you need to read up on The Stones! These lovely ladies gave them lyrical ideas ,they called Anita the last Rolling Stone” the dialogue between Marianne and Anita is like the wizard of Oz,on acid!
@weenyone Anita Pallenberg was Keith Richards' girlfriend for years. She had two of his children and a third one that died shortly after birth. She also was Brian Jones' girlfriend before leaving him for Keith.
Marianne looks beautiful singing Ballad of Lucy Jordan the in comes The Delightfully Evil 😈 Anita Still a beauty) Pallenberg So, sadly I couldn’t watch this where I live but I heard you obviously see one is the good angel character one is the bad.
I would suggest a new recording considering the change to the lyrics. The original version says "At the age of 37" whereas this version says "At the age of 47".
A coup on the part of Jennifer Saunders. It's difficult to quantify Faithfull as a performer. Intelligent for sure, but no actor as can be seen here - Pallenburg is better.
REST IN PEACE DARLING ANITA 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🔮🔮🔮🔮🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
“They won’t have any use for you and me soon.”
“Oh frankly, I’m bored anyway. What’s the point of me if I’m acceptable?”
This dialogue is absolutely flawless.
Anita & Marianne still rock after all these years. Such charisma and beauty!
These ladies were the women behind the success of the Rolling Stones. 👍🏻
🤣😂
I wish I could have met Anita. Regardless of her past she seemed like such a neat lady.
Brilliant choices at every turn...casting, writing, music, costumes, set design. Long live AbFab! ❤☮🌎
This is so brillant. the writing, the acting. It just couldnt of been any better.
A masterstroke in casting!
It is a miracle those two women are even alive! At least half their friends are dead from the drugs they injected and swallowed. Two fabulous women who lived life to the absolute fullest, and lived to tell about it. There's no one like them around anymore. Mundus senescit.
Anita und Marianne....Duo infernal....sie werden die Ewigkeit überdauern!!
Danke fürs hochladen
LG, Elke ❤
Having Marianne sing 'at the age of 47' when it's 37 in the original is a delicious extra level of shade.
In the original what?
@@VikingLad The original lyrics to the song she sings here: The Ballad Of Lucy Jordan.
This was genius. You can tell what era someone is from if you ask them who God is. Some say Morgan Freeman, some say Marianne. 🖤
Marianne Faithfull is amazingly talented.
Shes a very underrated lyricist.
When I was a young girl my idol was Marianne and I fashioned my life around her, now I'm alot older, wiser, and more cynical and have become more and more like Anita everyday 😂😂😂
A fabulous concept.
My peers thought I was odd for loving Marianne.
I like every bit of Marianne.
Inspired idea to have this scene between them.
Two 60s divas in one movie!Great!:)
Just reminding myself how beautiful this song is! I love this scene!
Genius! Can't give you a reasonble explanation why, but Marianne's voice (both speaking and singing) makes me melt!
They both still alive and kickin and probably have interesting stories to tell
Not anymore darlin.
I adore this scene where she is lying on the bed and gets sung to! Beautiful and wish they had done it for longer like it said in the audio commentary on the DVD!
Faithfull is my goodess since I child Ive met both
later in my late teens
I hung out with ANITA and Johnny THUNDERS smoking reefer and drinking screw drivers from a juice jar once in Keith Richards silver cloud limo
Anita passed the bottle to me and John said HEY theres REAL VODKA in there kid! and I said WELL I HOPE SO..he just looked surprised like WHOOP! I looked like a farm girl not a groupie punk John was old fashioned italain. Anita laughed..it was a very cool 4 me evening in NYC!
OMG!!!!!! I love that song! Thats great!
I remember watching this stoned and getting amazed by the colors in the background
and the song is great in the programme! Just shows how Edina feels. Brilliant! My favourite bit after the Book clubbing episode!
AMAZING TWO WOMEN..MY ROLE MODELS FOR FIFTY YEARS❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Song was in Thelma and Louise
I love how to Edina Marianne Faithful IS God. She also appeared as God in a 1996 episodeof Ab Fab. "Will & Grace" totally ripped off this idea with Cher appearing in Jack's dream.

Just brilliant stuff..
Great video; thanks for posting. So glad these two wonderful talented women have survived!
It's also my favourite out of Absoultely Fabulous!!!
It's amazing these women are still alive with their prior massive H addictions.
this song is so weird yet intriguing.
I would never have recognised Anita Pallenberg.
Classy cool ladies
Absolutely Amazing 😻
Awesome! I don't remember seeing this episode
Interesting how after all these years even if you didn't know who they are/were you can tell who was married with which stone easily.
Neither were married to any stone.
@@angelicbeing6346 keith and anita were essentially common law married. Marianne wasnt of course
Wow! The things you learn! Interesting!
anita is very Funny😂😂😂
i hate when this happenes to me in the morning when i am having a fat day.. but no marian or anita .. but sometimes the bed does float xxj
That's great!

Nice that Anita & Marianne acted together.
Marianne did 'Girl on a Motorcycle'..
Perfect.
loooooooooooove it!!!!!1
I remember that episode
Gaaf ze is het dus echt,
heel mooi liedje ook

Marianne - hot!
This is my. Favorite version of lj
Anita Pallenberg was only 54 in this clip
Anita was born in 1942 so she would have been 59 here in 2001. Marianne was 54.
@weenyone
Anita Pallenberg was Keith Richards' girlfriend for years. She had two of his children and a third one that died shortly after birth. She also was Brian Jones' girlfriend before leaving him for Keith.
and she slept with Mick
@seulementmoi Its called 'the ballad of lucy jordan'
Marianne looks beautiful singing Ballad of Lucy Jordan the in comes The Delightfully Evil 😈 Anita Still a beauty) Pallenberg
So, sadly I couldn’t watch this where I live but I heard you obviously see one is the good angel character one is the bad.
time waits for no one
This version of the song seems to have some keyboard effects added, is that a remix or was it just added for the show?
I would suggest a new recording considering the change to the lyrics. The original version says "At the age of 37" whereas this version says "At the age of 47".
frightening visuals, but great dialog
An absolute stitch.pscy.
❤️
Marianne Faithfull "IS" God!!!!
And Edina is Gabriel ...
in "MY" Heaven anyway...... LOL
what song is this?
Shel Silverstien..DR Hook???
what's the name of the song?
The Ballad of Lucy Jordan
Possibly true - but Jennifer Saunders knocks them both out of the water! :D
@mtsn...not married, just living in sin
All down the line.pscy.
Anita Pallenberg has NOT aged well! Faithfull is slightly better. Her voice is crackled from the drug overdoses.
A coup on the part of Jennifer Saunders. It's difficult to quantify Faithfull as a performer. Intelligent for sure, but no actor as can be seen here - Pallenburg is better.
silly
Yep they definitely should have cut this. How cringe. They might be icons but they cannot act.
Are you fcking serious? This is an iconic scene TWAT
@@nickkellerman1638 Sorry for having a different opinion TWAT 🤣
People like you just don't get it & never will.
@@bipbippadotta5953 I guess I'm just not old or gay enough 🤣
Brilliant scene, one of my favourite moments from the entire show and I'm not old enough to remember either of them. Very poignant dialogue.
