Indeed! One of my absolute favourites is when Patsy had a flashback to her mom in the pram and her mom told her that her body had aborted her after nine months so she better get used to being alone. I have never laughed so hard as I can imagine my mom saying the same lol
A business friend once couldn't believe me when I said "you need to watch this show called Absolutely Fabulous." Her eyes widened and couldn't believe a guy liked the show and especially one from the Brits. I told her it's one of the best shows that the Brits ever produced and these two women make me laugh over and over again. Wish they would do maybe 5 or 6 more shows when they're at the senior age and get them out there. We need so much better entertainment than what's out there today. My friend passed away and every time I watch the show I think of her. Here's to you Nance!
Here's to you and your great friend, Nance, who left the Earth. Thank you for that. SO sorry for your loss-aren't we fortunate to have shared these ladies and the other great characters on the AB FAB Show, with our wonderful friends! Here's to you, Airily, with all my love, from Terri-after all these years... xo
@@ts-eu6mp Thanks for your thoughts on my comment and my friend Nance. I like smart women who these 3 are and got one heck of a sense of humor, great combination that can't be beaten! Thank you!
Oh how we treasure these two in America! Seriously one of funniest shows of all time, and we really have nothing to compare it to from American TV. Re-watching the series the past week has seen me through a nasty case of covid. 25+ years later still laughing till I cry.
From a "Yank" on the other side of the pond: these two immensely talented women are the Laurel & Hardy's of British comedy. Brilliant writing. Genius comedic timing. Superb BBC production quality. They have made me laugh harder than even Del Boy in OFAH and are the best of Great Britain. Thank you for so damn many belly laughs.
Even from a distance, as an American, I can see old clips and be stunned at what a well-constructed show it is. It's no wonder it's such a phenomenon in the UK, the chemistry is amazing!
Ms. Saunders made "lady band" sound like a product to prevent "sneeze pees!" "Strengthen your kegels with the new Always(TM) Lady Bands, and soon you won't be worrying about sneeze pees, either! Sold in the feminine hygiene aisle. Get yours today!" 😂
Two brilliant performers and Saunders also wrote the stuff!! Just the best - who can compete with those Absolutely Fab episodes? Hard to beat the brilliance of those shows!!!
Joanna Lumley is such an interesting woman! She can talk about anything but is also a wonderful listener, she's intrigued by people and their stories. I'm going to See her in Dublin tomorrow and I can't wait. I hope I meet her 😊 I only wish Jennifer Saunders was with her! 😍
jennifer saunders notorious with bare bones scripts, she would have an idea and let everyone do their own thing. and then got ideas off other peoples interpretations. it always worked out brilliantly, of course she was always surrounded by great talent.
BBC comedy is a force in and of itself! I snuck in to the living room late at night to view Benny Hill, adored Are You Being Served and when I found Absolutely Fabulous, I was in love forever! (South of Boston, MA-USA)
I remember when she was featured in the “Falling for Figaro,” movie. Her character really scared the living daylights out of me. Joanna, that in itself is a compliment which shows what an amazing actress you are and you were born for it. 🙏🏽 what a lovely and humble woman she is!
I’m just sad that I didn’t discover this show sooner 😭 it’s 2022 and I just got through all the seasons. Never knew this show existed until a couple months ago. Now added to the list of my top favorites
Never forget the first time I saw this show in the mid 90s....was on comedy central...never laughed so loud...made sure was home on thurs 7:30pm ....no DVR at that time...lol
Those of you who watched AbFab already know this, but what Jennifer Saunders left out was how her character fell out ass-first from a cab in the present, then it went to a flashback in which she as a young woman doing the same thing. It was hilarious! Didn't know that was based upon what she saw Bananarama doing in the '80s.
LOL the show came out when I was in Jr. High me and mom started watching it together, in our own way we are alot like Saph and Eddie which made it more hysterical.
OMW this show was so amazingly hilarious with these two beautiful ladies. The cast all round just fitted in. Thanks I have watch it over many times. Keep on smiling 😍🤩
Absolutely Fabulous is my life. I’ve spent time around people just like Patsy and Eddie. I think it’s the one series I can quote word for word. Every single part. Every character. I love it so much. It’s Absolutely Fabulously Iconic. One of the funniest scenes that always has me laughing is when Patsy is sat next to Eddie who is giving birth and she’s dressed as Purdy. It was full circle.
Wow, the takeaway I get here is that Joanna is still just as sexy as she was 1,2,3 and 4 decades ago. Wow. All that and a first class intellect AND actress.
i have the series of ABFAB and French and Saunders: the first series was on VHS cassette !!!!! i watched it so many time it became un-usable and then of course i got ALL the ABFAB series on DVD:-) sooooooo awesome these girls :-) I looooooooove AbFab.-) Thankyou Pats and Edina!
I'm lucky enough to have the complete set of Ab Fab on DVD and I watch them regularly when I'm need of a lift. It never gets old. (The American version stunk - they ruined Ab Fab just like they did with The Office).
Joanna voice is like velvet I could listen to it all day
Absolutely.
She does travel documentaries too.... they fantastic, and her personality shines!
❤
Amazing
Yes I need her on my calm app
these two have gotten me thru two decades of horrific times with laughter. I am forever grateful.
And COVID...
Bless you, sending hugs 🙏🏻
Couldn't agree more.
They’re hilarious! Love you both ❤️
I watched them in the 90s while I was married to an abusive piece of crap. They made me laugh so much, and I loved them ❤️
I love how they include Rebel into their conversation, makes it feel so much warmer and laid back
I completely agree! I think it’s a true mark of class in an age where the art of conversation has been lost.
She was in the movie after all…
graham norton is brilliant this would not happen anywhere else
I wish she would shut up.
That's real British class. Disappearing sadly
Patsy's entrances and one liners are some of the funniest comedy ever created
Indeed! One of my absolute favourites is when Patsy had a flashback to her mom in the pram and her mom told her that her body had aborted her after nine months so she better get used to being alone. I have never laughed so hard as I can imagine my mom saying the same lol
Two of the funniest performers I've ever seen. We know AbFab was great because of how well the comedy holds up after 30 years.
Jennifer’s reaction to the lady band comment is priceless
This is the most British interview ever in every single way

One of the best all time comedies that will endure throughout the 21st century.

This show was my guide in the 90s. The influence it had in me was hysterical!
Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley are 2 ICONS 👑

It was massive in America as well. If you knew…you knew. And when you knew so did everyone you know.
Are you saying you haven't seen whole shows? They're so amazing.
AbFab is one of the most powerful laugh-inducers I've ever found.
“Have you got your lady bands in? Because I’m wearing mine tonight.” 😂😂😂
Ms. Saunders made "lady band" sound like a product to prevent "sneeze pees!"
"Strengthen your kegels with the new Always(TM) Lady Bands, and soon you won't be worrying about sneeze pees, either! Sold in the feminine hygiene aisle. Get yours today!" 😂

These two just play off each other with great timing. There out takes are great.
I'm so glad Jennifer and Joanna met each other... together they are comedy gold! The Made me laugh so much....my ribs still hurt, Love them both!!! X
Absolutely Fabulous and the Golden Girls, 2 shows I can watch on repeat daily and not get tired of
Facts
Joanna Lumley is such an interesting woman! She can talk about anything but is also a wonderful listener, she's intrigued by people and their stories. I'm going to See her in Dublin tomorrow and I can't wait. I hope I meet her 😊 I only wish Jennifer Saunders was with her! 😍
I think they hate eachother xD
They can't even help themselves they are so funny together - it just happens!!!
Still love watching their shows over and over.
Jennifer and Joanna - absolutely best ever darlings! Can't wait for the movie!
Yasss! Love them!
I just love Jennifer Saunders. What a fabulous sense of humor and beautiful, too. I hope she has a partner that treats her really well.
Her husband is Ade Edmondson! Another British comedy legend. Look up "Bottom"...
I like Rebel. I LOVE Jennifer and Joanna and I love how Joanna spoke to Rebel...Joanna is such a cool lady!
That was a perfectly executed double take with feigned affront follow through, Miss Lumley 🤣
jennifer saunders notorious with bare bones scripts, she would have an idea and let everyone do their own thing. and then got ideas off other peoples interpretations. it always worked out brilliantly, of course she was always surrounded by great talent.
Joanna Lumley to me will always be Aunt Spiker from James and the Giant Peach. She terrified me as a kid 🤣
Well I'll be blowed.
To me she's Purdey from The New Avengers! 🤷🏻♀️
@@mabo4165 yeah well I wasn't born then soooooo.... 🤷
That would have been excellent casting…my fifth grade teacher Mrs. Stauffer was the most excellent Auntie Sponge. The original illustrations.
I love these two women! They've gotten me through some horrific times in my life with laughter and the comedy.
"Have you got your ladybands in? I'm wearing mine." Hahahahha
BBC comedy is a force in and of itself! I snuck in to the living room late at night to view Benny Hill, adored Are You Being Served and when I found Absolutely Fabulous, I was in love forever! (South of Boston, MA-USA)
Shame you never found "The Young Ones" w/ Rik Mayall and I believe Adrian Edmondson..?
I remember when she was featured in the “Falling for Figaro,” movie. Her character really scared the living daylights out of me. Joanna, that in itself is a compliment which shows what an amazing actress you are and you were born for it. 🙏🏽 what a lovely and humble woman she is!
these two legends are amongst the best in comedy along with the late victoria wood, totally high caliber talent , very enjoyable story!
Such beautiful women. Joanna is a gem.
She's a national treasure.
I’m just sad that I didn’t discover this show sooner 😭 it’s 2022 and I just got through all the seasons. Never knew this show existed until a couple months ago. Now added to the list of my top favorites
They look like 3 Golden Retrieveres 😁 - A huge fan of Absolutely Fabelous
Never forget the first time I saw this show in the mid 90s....was on comedy central...never laughed so loud...made sure was home on thurs 7:30pm
....no DVR at that time...lol
Love these ladies !! The good old days
I cant not say it enough...I LOVE THESE LADIES!!!
I'm from Arkansas, and I'm a huge fan of these actresses!
These ladies and Betty white are the 3 people I wanna meet one day before I die. Absolutely the funniest people on this planet in my eyes!!!
Sadly, Betty White (from Golden Girls) died last year.
Two of the funniest ladies ever!!!!!
Jennifer still makes the cutest faces
Absolutely Fabulous continues to be one of my favorite show!
and i love the bloopers even more
When Graham said 'former lady band' the first thing I thought was 'oh they're not ladies anymore?'
They will ALWAYS be Absolutely Fabulous!!!
Joanna Lumley was in two episodes of AYBS and was excellent in both of them.
I remember those episodes. Ms. Lumley was married to one of the show's creators, wasn't she?
i've never seen them interviewed together before... what a marvelous chemistry still exists between these comedy legends!! so happy to see this
I loved that show,it's one of the all time greats!
The funniest thing ever, thank you so much for all those hours of laughing ❤️🌹
Favourite comedy of all time...how I miss it argghhh 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

Absolute geniuses! I love these too. Will be so sad when they leave.
i ADORE these ladies!!! Rebel too!

OMW this show was so amazingly hilarious with these two beautiful ladies. The cast all round just fitted in. Thanks I have watch it over many times. Keep on smiling 😍🤩
I first learned about Stoli from AbFab. It's been a wonderful love affair since.
Favorite TV show of all time!!!!!!
Three of the funniest women in the world on one couch!
Jennifer and Joanna? Who is the third ?
@@logiclanguagelearningFrench Rebel Wilson

Watched this interview hundreds of times still 😂😂😂😂
It only takes one person in a room of a million that believes in you and it makes a difference
Wow, the takeaway I get here is that Joanna is still just as sexy as she was 1,2,3 and 4 decades ago. Wow. All that and a first class intellect AND actress.
caribman10 Yep. Even on this side of the pond I saw her on the Avengers. Hottttt!
I absolutely love British humor. And this show was one of my favorites. So freaking funny. 🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽
I ❤️ that the end of Graham’s AbFab day was just a ride home on the DLR!

Thankyou Pats and Edina!
I wish rebel wilson would stop interupting the brilliant recollections of two wonderful actors
True industry professionals❤️
Wow Joanna’s voice is incredible. I think she is the voice on the Southern Rail train line.
26 felt weird to hear but now it's 32 years old damn.
"That's Jennifer, I didn't know anything about drinking" my God it's one of the best line of the show!!!
The most creative, hilarious show
Absolutely Fabsolutely, great comedy.
Ab Fab is Iconic. Those ladies are comedic geniuses!
I never clicked a video so fast....
LOVE LOVE LOVE AB FAB GREAT SHOW
I don't know who Jennifer and Joanna are, but you can tell that they have become very close and dear friends.
The Ladyband...! Have you got your Ladybands on? I've got mine on xxx
No matter how, no matter who, no matter good, no matter bad.................always dignity to the end . Bless her.
Thanks for posting
My AbFab dvds are in a big glass case labeled Antidepressant. I love them ❤
I watched an item on tv called Absolutely Champers with these 2 and it was hilarious. I recorded it so I can watch it again.
My favorite show EVER!
Made Joanna Lumley scary awesome in James and The Giant Peach!! ❤
Best show ever !
I'm lucky enough to have the complete set of Ab Fab on DVD and I watch them regularly when I'm need of a lift. It never gets old. (The American version stunk - they ruined Ab Fab just like they did with The Office).
There was an American version????
@@tankgirl6446 I am as surprised as you are.
Same deal with "Kath & Kim". The US remake was awful.
I haven't found a person who agrees with me on the UK Office in FOREVER! There is no use with speaking those those people AT ALL.
Gerkins or ghurkas respect to you both you are an inspiration h n crew
Where did Jennifer Saunders get the fabulous brooch from would love one
