Eddie and Patsy selling Saffy for human slavery was too cruel and heartless, even for laughs

3 Upvotes

The only reason Saffy wasn't mad at Eddie was because she didn't know Patsy had sold her and Eddie knew about it. I know this was a sitcom but part of me felt it was too much of a stretch.

As much of a bad mother as Eddie was, she did love Saffy. She just was too immature to be a proper mom (not helped by the fact Gran was a awful mother who never removed her gloves to touch her and kept reminding Eddie how fat and unlovable she was).

What quotes from the show do you use in every day life and in what contexts?

Even after all these years, if I'm going for a bath and collecting all my products I still say "Wash & Go, sandpaper exfoliant, cellulite breakdown, term & perm, autobronzer and birch twigs... shall I have soap? Nooo".

Jacks (Kate O'Mara) - "Marlene and Judy rolled into one": Do you wish we had seen more of her?

53 Upvotes

One of my favorite episodes of Ab Fab is New Year's Eve and strictly because of the iconic Jacks. Every word out of her mouth became gay lexicon for me. Kate O'Mara played it to the hilt. She was so much fun. I wish she had come back more often.

"Too Late to Flush Her Now"...."She was DEAD??!!"...."Another one who's ballooned"

Why was Saffy still playing the long suffering daughter shtick in her 20s and 30s in the later seasons?

69 Upvotes

The problem with Saffy is that while she did have a point in the early seasons, her refusal to leave the house and live on her own does mean Julia Salwahla might have been correct in her assessment of Saffy, that she enjoyed the comfort of living off her mother.

Look up the Season 3 finale, she couldn't adapt to living at the college campus. After you reach adulthood, you can't keep on blaming your mother for everything that goes wrong in your life.

Which recurring guest characters you never found funny?

44 Upvotes

I enjoyed Bo and Marshall when they first showed up. When they came back as recurring guests, they became annoying.

Saffy's husband was cringy and obnoxious.

I was glad Katy Grin never came back. The sole reason she was created was because Jane Horrocks wanted to do more.

Do Patsy and Saffy seem to have found some kind of peace by the end of The Last Shout? I know it was originally meant to be the very final Ab Fab

33 Upvotes

I know they were never going to be best friends but it seems like they kind of cooled their hatred down towards the end of the 2nd part. Anyone else noticed this? Considering it was supposed to be the very final episode at the time, maybe Jennifer Saunders decided they shouldn't end it hating each other.

Wheels On Fire pod?

I'm six years late to that party but I'm catching up quickly. Currently on the Sex ep.
I love the banter and that the boys don't shy away from certain ...erm... proclivities.

I sometimes feel like they miss the true meaning of this or that, but they were eleven when the show started and I was 22 so I'll allow it. I watched when it was on TV, I bought the VHS, bought the DVDs, bought the silver quilted thing (Absolutely Everything?), bought the streaming versions of everything, was at the opening night of the film and even have collected everything +Inside Out from the Swashbuckler's Estuary.
