she is not. She has an ego the size of texas, she steals most of her ideas from her staff and makes them her own and NEVER promotes anyone working for her. She is a monster to be around and actually nobody likes her in this business.
Dawn can't stand her, Saunders tries to avoid her as much as possible, Lumley borderline hates her, Julia Sawalha doesn't even want to share a time zone with her.
I haven't seen this show since it originally aired. I'd completely forgotten about Lumley as Purdey and how funny it was. Seeing this classic sketch again has brightened my day
Ah. Shame the ending was lost but really grateful you posted this. Thank you. Never seen this before. This was funny seeing Ms Lumley not being her humble self in such a fashion.
@germanamericanable - Glad you enjoyed it - Ruby goes back much further, I think you'll really like this, it's not a great picture but you can see it, search for 'Girls On Top Series' and go for series 1 ep 1 first. The earliest I ever saw her was on an episode of 'The Professionals' which was probably 1979/80 ;-)
@abrazamemoscow - As I've said in the video details, I was very surprised to find that I'd lost the end of this episode, I'm hoping I've got another version somewhere else, and I'll upload when I find it ;-)
will someone pls post the episode with joanna making 'eggs florentine' it was on here a while back but i can't find it?? anyone have the 'Eggs' ep? pls??
loved this show, ruby was fearless, and joanna going along with it brilliantly. even the jamie lee curtis interview was fun, ruby always trying to get a scoop. kind of turned on her a bit.
What a treat seeing Lumley looking like absolute shit. (14:29) Amazing comedy chops; how does she do it? No one else can make a formal ball gown and tiara seem funny.
+Thomas Farmer this is from 94... the cooking segment clip on youtube is from 93... the first break in clip is from 91 and the second break in clip is from 92 - hope this helps ;)
I absolutely love the appearances Joanna did on this show she’s just so perfect.
Ruby is pretty underrated she’s hilarious and she’s such a great writer

There's NOTHING like British humor, especially with someone as fearless and talented as Joanna Lumley!
And yet written by an American, ruby wax
This reinvented her as a comedy actress
@@zeddeka Americans who get the British humor tend to over do it. Sometimes brutally successful
The talent levels in this episode are scary. Ruby, Joanna and Jamie Lee Curtis
Ruby Wax always said Joanna Lumley was incredible.
To find someone so beautiful and be so funny is extremely rare!
Joanna is amazing...a natural comedic actress, she is funnier than most comics i have seen
I haven't seen this show since it originally aired. I'd completely forgotten about Lumley as Purdey and how funny it was. Seeing this classic sketch again has brightened my day
The birth of Patsy how fabulous..! Thanks Ruby
Ah. Shame the ending was lost but really grateful you posted this. Thank you. Never seen this before. This was funny seeing Ms Lumley not being her humble self in such a fashion.
I love that Jamie Lee did this shows she has a sense of humour I’ve always loved her
Joanna Lumley was hilarious in this as is Jamie Lee Curtis. There should be a one off special where we find out how Joanna's doing now.
The Jamie Lee Curtis bit is hilarious!
"That's how you chose your husband- like a lobster in a restaurant..."
If I were cast away on a desert island the one thing I would hope for would be Joanna.
'Looking at THE Joanna Lumley'
chillmax thankyou for making the internet prosper with your VHS recording skills!

Jamie Lee is a good sport. You'd not get many who'd go along with this sort of stuff.
Impeccable taste in clips.
@UtterlyHeleno - Didn't get an email about this post, so only just seeing this today! That's fine, I'm glad it's available somewhere else ;-)
Splendid! As always! ;)
she is a genius!
Joanna came to Pretoria South Africa to promote Purdy in the 70s she is so beautiful and classy!! 😇🙏🎉🎊💕❤️💖
@rokk1 - I have got that episode somewhere (or did have) as soon as I come across it, and have time to upload, it will be here ;-)
@abrazamemoscow - As I've said in the video details, I was very surprised to find that I'd lost the end of this episode, I'm hoping I've got another version somewhere else, and I'll upload when I find it ;-)
oh my, how criminal those legs were covered by that gone with the wind dress.
Aw, I really hope you find the rest of this, Joanna is truly hilarious here!
Do you know the year? 1993?
will someone pls post the episode with joanna making 'eggs florentine' it was on here a while back but i can't find it?? anyone have the 'Eggs' ep? pls??

Beth Dewoody!!
Ruby is magnificent.
ruby wax was on FOX in the mid to late 80's
@chillmax thank you!
"Jamie Lee Curtis".... I mean what TV SHOWS has SHE done? Hahahaa.
What a treat seeing Lumley looking like absolute shit. (14:29) Amazing comedy chops; how does she do it? No one else can make a formal ball gown and tiara seem funny.
your English is perfect! :)
Love it......
ruby is soooo funny and joanna is awesome and gorgeous
@germanamericanable - Look for 'The Girls On Top' episodes from 'Zombiefacedgirl' as they're better quality ;-)
When was this filmed? It's hillarious :)
this is so so funny
Haha love joanna
wow Jamie lee Curtis was stunning so beautiful and amazing legs!! love her
Which year is this from? I am guessing 1992?
Are you gay just asking don't feel ashamed
+Thomas Farmer True Lies came out in 1994, and with Jamie Lee holding the True Lies poster and with that hair cut, probably 93 or 94.
***** Except that it has Jamie Lee Curtis PRing for True Lies, so the earliest it could be would have to be 1993 when True Lies was filmed.
+Thomas Farmer this is from 94... the cooking segment clip on youtube is from 93... the first break in clip is from 91 and the second break in clip is from 92 - hope this helps ;)
is there a second part?
