Noggin will be rolling about on the livingroom floor, of course.

I saw that on your blog az, absolutely hilarious! I've linked it to a few friends who also enjoyed it.

Do you know who the actress doing the Maggie Smith role is? None of us have been able to place her.

az

alison steadman.

Oh, thank you anhaga!

I would never have recognised her! Well, clearly, cos I didn't. But she is one of my favourite Brit actresses.

Remember Abigail's Party? Fabulous.

Did you enjoy the video?

az

Excellent. I thought Jeremy Irons was too good at playing Jeremy Irons to actually be Jeremy Irons, but there he is, Jeremy Irons!

I did enjoy the video.

I have every AB FAB released on DVD not to mention most of French and Saunders and some Two Ronnies, so most of the cast was familiar (get it?).

Oh, wasn't AB FAB, um, fab??? Just hysterical, all of it. Particularly loved Marian Faithfull as God.

az

And yes, Jeremy Irons taking the piss out of being ... Jeremy Irons. That was also very good.

Why do the Brits do this sort of humour so much better than anybody else?

az

And then there's Welcome Back Potter (something vaguely familiar about it ...)

Excellent, they even managed to tape it *70s Style*.
