    It’s now 2023, and this is still absolute Comedy Gold, and for me the ‘Market researcher’ with the clipboard is Genius writing and performing.
    50 minutes of classic British Comedy, without the need for an expletive every other word!!!

    A masterclass, from the most supremely talented comedic genius, Victoria Wood. I rewatch this and many other shows and performances by this absolute icon of British comedy. Mostly with absolute joy and laughter! But tinged with sadness at her loss, far too soon, and wonder at how much more she would have graced us with.

    I was privileged enough to see Victoria live at the Albert Hall many years ago, I still remember her comparing childbirth to pushing a sofa through a mouse hole. Very funny lady.

    For 51:47 precious moments.... in the still life that was this morning, there's me; laughing non-stop throughout the entire show, killing myself laughing; but on 'mute' coz nobody else was awake at my place! haha! What a fabulous show and I adored the incredible energy and comic skills of the wonderful Victoria Wood: she was and is, a legend!

    I’ve never noticed until now how like Princess Diana she was, some of her mannerism are so similar. Even though I never met her I miss as I would a dear friend. Her comedy is as fresh today as it was then. God rest dear girl.

    She was a one off. A brilliant comic and actress taken far too soon. I'm laughing here even though I know this off by heart lol. Her work never gets old. My absolute favourite.
