Libby Purves, Daily Mail, 30th June 2016'Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie': Review
"All I ever wanted was not to be fat and old!" cries PR guru and bad gran Edina Monsoon, bewailing the time when "the zeitgeist used to run right through me". As her best friend Patsy injects herself with Botox, flips through Tinder and quaffs Chanel No 5 because they've run out of Bolly, it's clear that writer/star Jennifer Saunders hasn't lost her touch over the quarter century since these characters were first conceived for TV.

Jamie Tabberer, Gay Star News, 30th June 2016Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie - wearing its yeas well

Donald Clarke, The Irish Times, 29th June 2016Phoebe Waller-Bridge's sitcom rewarded those who made it past a challenging premise (the protagonists live in a condemned hospital as property guardians) with dark LOLs as middle-class jobs met sub-student lifestyles, and Kathy Burke as you've never seen her before. The whole series is available to watch now on All4.
