@@paulleeny82 No, she was looking for the tell-tale scars from a face lift. 😂 In truth, Kate O'Mara was a joy and a very kind, supportive mentor to so many actresses - belying her trademark hard-nosed bitch persona. A role at which she excelled, obvs.
Kate O’Mara was not only one of the most stunning women I’ve ever seen she was one of the most under-rated actresses too. Her comedic timing was pure perfection. Sadly missed.
This is one of the greatest episodes.! So effortlessly paced and hilarious. The sibling rivalry was really flipped there at the end, a classic episode! 🐈🐾👓😁
i envy you. this was everything in the the 90's. here in the states we'd go to clubs and then get home and fall asleep to reruns of this at 3am. It's such a ridiculous, fun show.
Directly after this clip, I think Saffy's line (directed at Patsy) perfectly sums up Jackie: "She makes you look decent! You're a very pale imitation!"
I gotta say, I love it when I see so many comments that appear to be from fairly young people, so many don't even care about anything that isn't brand new stuff. If they only knew! They're missing out on that good stuff! Pass the gems to the next generations!!
I also sometimes feel bad for Saffy because her mom and best friend Patsy are often cruel to her. At the same time, though, I can't stop laughing as this show's total French and Saunders fictional comedy. It's never meant taken seriously or offensive. Total fiction. No reality. British shows, unlike American lack censorship. Through their fictional characters, Jennifer Saunders, Dawn French, Joanna Lumley, and all other great actors they work with spoof on everyone's personality extremities. Even theirs. In real life, they're nothing like their characters. They never were nor will be superficial, narcissistic addicts, smokers, or overgrown adolescents. Nor have they ever or will strive influencing that behavior. Thus I never actually have nor will be offended by their wittily funnily fun comedy. No way. Uh-uh. Lol. It's just for comedy. Nothing else.
RIP Kate, anyone remember the series Triangle and Howards Way in the 80's and 90's. Kate also starred in Dynasty as the scheming sister Caress Morell of Joan Collins character Alexis Colby.
Thanks! One of my favourite episodes of this brilliantly funny show. Great writing by Jennifer, brilliant performance by Joanna and others. Patsy Stone for PM!
Kate O'Mara was fantastic. I saw her in Dynasty, she was brilliant there too, but regrettably underused. They should've make her charakter more important.
She was brought in to dynasty because Joan Collins was asking for much more money per episode. If the negotiations failed, then the plan was that Kate's character would replace Alexis.
She was indeed . She is flawless in this show , every line is sharp as a razor blade , perfect timing, perfect facial expression and mannerism . If i come back a s a woman i want to be exactly like her . Bitchy and fearless .
@@morganolfursson2560 And looking back at old episodes of Dynasty, as I've been doing recently, it's clear that Kate completely outstrips Joan Collins in the acting department.
Kate O'Mara lived in my neighbourhood in England, I kid you not. I often saw her shopping in the local Tesco store. You couldn't miss her with her eyes. One would think she would get someone else to shop for her, but not the case.
Gosh Jackie is EXACTLY like my grand mother . Same vicious personality, sharp wit and equally beautiful . I used to be terrified of her as a kid, but today she is my hero .
Same here!! My grandmother had a tongue like sulphuric acid, and nobody, but nobody ever annoyed her and got away with it. She was very regal, immaculately chic, and didnlt give a damn whom she offended.
Apparently being rude and hurtful to people who don't deserve it but getting away with it because of your looks, is something to be admired these days.
Jackie: "....there's nothing more I hate than being in 'all female' company..." Edina looks at the two Gay Men : "....little does SHE know...." I use that line on almost EVERYTHING in my life! : )
@@capcom23 ...weellll.... - Cute straight girl walks down street with Hot Boyfriend, he gives ME the 'eye'....'little does she know..." - Kardasshian lookalike, wearing TOO much makeup, on the morning Bus.....'little does she know..." - Heavy Girl wearing cutoffs, with flabby thighs showing...'little does she know..." - Gay queen wearing mascara / blush, acting as if he's 'all natural'....'little does she know..." - Loud person talking on cell phone on public transportation, I hold up my 'invisible' cell, and say, 'little does she / he know...." ....try it! >; )
"Oh how sweet of you to admit to a thing like that!" Love Kate O'Mara. She was great as Alexis' sister on Dynasty. Wow that was one hell of a shit slinging, barb induced conversations.
Kate O'Mara was a fantastic actress. Whilst this performance is memorable, for me she will always be the Doctor's nemesis The Rani in Dr Who from when I was a kid.
I didn't see many episodes of the other big show she was in, but wasn't she opposite Colin Baker in "The Brothers" for a while? The two of them have great onscreen chemistry and it showed. He was an underrated Doctor too...
I really liked this episode. They didn't show the part where Jackie starts to eat the potpourri or whatever was in the bowl. Ha ha The one thing I never understood was Patsy helping Jackie steal things from Eddie. I guess Patsy was still intimidated by her own sister.
It doesn't make a whole lot of sense, they just had to wrap up the episode. Jackie told Patsy she was having some money problems. Patsy realised Jackie was no longer the woman she idolized. Eddie told Patsy "You have no morals, darling." this gives Patsy the idea to steal from Eddie to get rid of Jackie. Eddie is so rich she probably never noticed the stuff was missing.
Richard Phillips yeah the whole show was based on the dysfunctional families where the child has to act like the parent because the parent is acting like the child
Yes. Young Saffy's considered the oversensibly dorky mom while her mom Eddy and her best friend Patsy are overgrown adolescents without common sense. Lol.
@@privategirl4716 Saffy was a latchkey kid, which was common among GenX kids like her, plus she was basically raised by her grandparents while her mother and Patsy were doing their own thing. It was more of a parody of the generation gap, if you look at it in context.
So many brilliant lines one after another. Oh yes I remember you. Another one who’s ballooned. Severe! I balled my ass of on this episode so bad I almost peed. Maybe I did a little.
“Pats...I didn’t recognize you, you put on weight”lol and the checking for surgery scars behind patsy’s ear kills me every time.
Ohhhh! I thought she was going for the roots! 😂

She is checking for face lift scars behind each ear! Haha
I want that zebra coat so badly!

I was going to write that Joanna Lumley is a national treasure, but she is, in reality, a global treasure.
And she is FINALLY a Dame.
She brightens my day. 😁
I'm French and I confirm!
(We wouldn't claim any other Brit though.)
(So please keep your Bojo and your Andrew.)
you should've stuck with national
@@Pogouldangeliwitz "Keep your Bojo and your Andrew"?
Do we have to?
“Too late to flush her now…” 🤣🤣🤣 Brutal and brilliant!
Did she answer with „ I know…“? 🤣
That had me crying too😂😂😂
I love it at 1:12 where she stepped back in slight disgust at seeing Saffy
"she WAS dead wasn't she?" "yes" "then it was great!" - i love that line!
"how sweet of you to admit to a thing like that" great episode and one of the funniest lines
“Never mind .. too late to flush her now “
“Oh I know “
SAVAGE 🤣
Best line. And later Saffy says "I Can't believe what that woman said to me" and Eddie says "well she is witty, I'll give her that!"
She looks behind Patsy's ear, to see the facelift scar🤣
I was wondering what she was looking for.
Ah,I thought she was pricing her earnings,lol makes more sense!
😂 savage
Ohhh!🤭
I had no idea!!!
I so loved when Jackie returns and she's become a cat lady with a weak bladder. Brilliant.
It's the same episode. Eddie wants to go to a. club, and Patsy's sister prevents it.
Hilarious! 😂😊
RIP Kate O'Mara. Casting her as Jackie was brilliant.
she was awesome as Caress on Dynasty, too.
Agree 💯
@@latinguy67 kate was also great as The Rani.
@@colinb5504 Leave the girl, it's the man I want.
Kate O'Meara is a legend with her flashing eyes, sharp wit, and immaculate comic timing.
The e entire serie is a goldmine of comedy, but this episode...masterpiece.
This is one of the greatest episodes.! So effortlessly paced and hilarious. The sibling rivalry was really flipped there at the end, a classic episode! 🐈🐾👓😁
Eddy laughing at the "bag over her own daughter" joke is epic! LOL
Agree!!!
So funny!
Much better was her saying "I know" to "never mind, too late to flush her now"
I think that part was not scripted. Eddie looks like she was genuinely laughing. 😂😂
Love love this show! I’m American and first discovered this show about 6 months ago. How did I go my whole life not knowing about this show!
i envy you. this was everything in the the 90's. here in the states we'd go to clubs and then get home and fall asleep to reruns of this at 3am. It's such a ridiculous, fun show.
Another one who’s ballooned 😂
🤣🤣🤣😍 too funny!
Kate O'Mara pretty much steals any show she's in and up the ante in AbFab takes a LOT of talent!
Well said and very accurate.
She really should have been a Dr Who at some point
@@Fatima502 didn't she play The Rani?
@@Fatima502 She was, notably!
@@thegreenmanofnorwich yes a Time Lord
Directly after this clip, I think Saffy's line (directed at Patsy) perfectly sums up Jackie: "She makes you look decent! You're a very pale imitation!"
She puts you in the shade your a very poor reproduction - but that’s a great response you have put also!
Ive had a crush on Patsy since the 90s. Thanks for the laughs ladies,thank you so much!
EPIC!!! I watched this every New Years Eve! Kate O'Mara is beyond amazing!
I gotta say, I love it when I see so many comments that appear to be from fairly young people, so many don't even care about anything that isn't brand new stuff. If they only knew! They're missing out on that good stuff! Pass the gems to the next generations!!
One of the very best episodes of the entire series
Agreed! 100!
Justin: I'm Saffy's father. Jackie: Oh how sweet of you to admit to a thing like that! Lol.
Kate O'Mara: tough life, down-to-earth person. RIP .
One of the best episodes. "I didn't recognise you, you've put on weight." 😁😁
They treated Saffy so horribly. Poor child
Yeah. I never liked that part of the show at all.
That was part of the magic just like Meg on Family Guy.
@@BH-zd2px I never liked the way they treated Meg either. That's not 'magic'...that's just cruelty.
Saffy deserved every bit of her mistreatment. She was really so insufferable.

Imagine Jax vs Alexis
Love how Eddy stumbles in just to correct Jacks:
- Hol- Holland Park!
Thanks! One of my favourite episodes of this brilliantly funny show. Great writing by Jennifer, brilliant performance by Joanna and others. Patsy Stone for PM!
Knowing Pats she'd shag all the world leaders or piss them off 🤣🤣
"Another one who's ballooned ." I mean, really, how absolutely savage. I must commit this one to memory. 🤣
''Ohhh, how sweet of you to admit to a *thing* like that'' LOL
"Is this Shepherds Bush"
'HOLLAND PARK!'
I felt that🤣
I love how Eddie cracks up in the end lmao
Loved her as Caress on Dynasty ❤❤❤❤
Is it bright in here, or am I badly lit? LOLOL
This line is sheer genius !
@@morganolfursson2560 I don't get it :(
Lol love the audience’s reaction when we first see Jackie. They already knew she was trouble but funny.
It’s because it’s Kate O’ Mara. Very famous actress so they were reacting to her presence
"funny"
"Aww, how sweet of you to admit to a thing like that" LOL.
They don't show her burn Patsy's face with her cigarette to make her say she's the older sister. Was already on the floor but that one killed me.
This is my favorite episode!
Kate O'Mara was fantastic. I saw her in Dynasty, she was brilliant there too, but regrettably underused. They should've make her charakter more important.
R.I.P
She was brilliant in the Doctor Who series Time and the Rani, with Sylvester McCoy.
Imagine if they had bought Joan Collins in as another sibling.
She was brought in to dynasty because Joan Collins was asking for much more money per episode. If the negotiations failed, then the plan was that Kate's character would replace Alexis.
Does anyone remember her in “The Brothers”?
LOL it just never gets old... LOL
I liked Seinfeld, but this show is on another level. I literally get tears when I watch.
Omg she played Caress in dynasty. She is hilarious!
Kate O'Mara was a fantastic actress,,,,,,,2019 Aquitaine France

This still is my fave Ab Fab episode ever 😆😆😆😆
I love the moments when Eddie gets sassy like that hahaha
'Patsy...I'm 72' 🤣
"Nevermind. Too late to flush her now." Brutal.
I watched this with my mom once and when Jackie checks behind Patsy's ear for facelift scars my mom laughed and shouted "Oooooo! What a bitch!"
My favourite part though is when Justin says "I'm not English, I'm Canadian" and Edie says "Are you?" and Jacks "My God, you'll admit to that too?"
Such a funny and well written show 🤣, I have watched it so many times
Kate O'Mara was such a stunning lady !
I always thought so too.
Is darling is...
They should have put her Dynasty, she would be good I'm there too
@@SACHKIGAL she was in dynasty
@@SACHKIGAL she was Alexis’s sister
Love, this show. Funny, as hell.
Joanna Lumley played the 13th Doctor in that Rowan Atkinson Doctor Who special. Makes sense that there is a rivalry between the Doctor and the Rani.
Absolutely fabulous darling!
