Absolutely Fabulous
Darling!
Created by Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders
A frenetic, satirical sitcom built on cruel humour and the spectacle of two self-destructive women's refusal to grow up, anchored by deadpan comedy and 90s London fashion-world excess.
Set in the world of fashion and PR, immature fun-loving mother Edina Monsoon and her best friend Patsy drive Eddie's sensible daughter, Saffron, up the wall with their constant drug abuse and outrageous selfishness. Numerous in-jokes and heavy doses of cruel humour have made this series a cult hit in the UK and abroad.
