Absolutely Fabulous - Series 1 - Complete

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS, quite possibly the best British comedy series since MONTY PYTHON or, at least, THE YOUNG ONES, centers on the exploits of Edina (Jennifer Saunders) and Patsy (Joanna Lumley), two middle-aged women trying to relive the glory of their youth. The catch here is that these two women unabashedly drink (Patsy's had a stomach bypass and consumes only alcohol), take drugs, and generally walk around in a stupor while abusing Edina's earnest daughter, Saffron (Julia Sawalha), and her assistant Bubble (Jane Horrocks). Probably the best sitcom of the 1990s, AB FAB's only fault is that it lasted a mere 18 episodes. This DVD set contains the six episodes that comprised the show's first season: "Fashion," "Fat," "France," "Iso Tank," "Birthday," and "Magazine."

  Absolutely Fabby!!
  
  Classic BBC comedy that stands up to the test of time. Of course some things were 'of the moment' but now we can look back and see how silly we were.

  Not in the mood
  
  Now I know why I didn't watch the series when it was on TV! Very tiresome, repetitive humour. After a while the joke wore very thin so I didn't watch it... read more »
