Bad Bridesmaid

Comedian Anna Morris hits a party of unsuspecting hens with a bridesmaid from hell in the last of the series. Bride-to-be Zoe has to convince her friends that crystal-loving artist Daisy is a long-lost cousin of the groom's to win a dream honeymoon. "I don't like racism," deadpans Daisy. "Or people who don't recycle." And then off she goes on a rampage to ruin the hen weekend by flirting with Arg from Towie and hogging the limelight. The toe-curling and over-the-top antics are ridiculously amusing.

Bad Bridesmaid, TV review

There was some amusement to be had in watching the other hens progress from nervous giggles to outright hostility, but the behaviour of Francesca (aka comedian Anna Morris) was never outrageous enough to really entertain.

This new six-part comedy gameshow has much in common with E4's Meet The Parents: while that format saw unsuspecting folk meet their partners' phoney families, this one follows hen parties infiltrated by a "pal" of the bride. The first of these fictitious friends is plummy PR/singer-songwriter Francesca (comic Anna Morris), who makes a big impression at Becky's celebrations. The claws are soon out, but in order for the bride to bag a luxury honeymoon, her real mates mustn't twig the ruse. Ridiculous and highly watchable.

Eventually, there will surely be a reality TV show in which commissioning executives have to guess which of the reality TV shows being pitched to them is actually a satirical send-up of the genre. Meanwhile, we have this second-tier ITV offering in which a hen weekend or wedding party has been infiltrated by an actor playing an "over the top" character who the bride insists is a long lost-friend or family member. Only the bride and the imposter know what is going on until the end, when the mayhem is explained, although, writing this, it seems increasingly probable that ITV has slipped in a fake press release to test us.
