I'm watching it on YouTube at the moment. So many laughs and yet so many lump in throat moments. Superb acting.
Anyone else watched it?

Housewife, 49, is wonderful too. Not sure if its on any streaming service at the moment.

Not forgetting Kim-BER-ley's friend.

Way too soon.

There's the bit in the hotel, when Margaret is trying to make the best of it and talking about pillows and her voice just breaks and falters. Brought tears to my eyes.

Thora Herd is fantastic too. "There was no such thing as dyslexia in those days. You were sat at the back, with raffia."

I love Victoria Wood. Love dinnerladies. Very funny. That show was the breakthrough show for Maxine Peake.

Yes! Several times and it still makes me smile.

Every time anyone mentions Victoria Wood, I just think

"beat me on the bottom with a Women's Weekly".

I loved Dinner Ladies.

She went too soon.

Yes! Loved it. I wasn't expecting it to be so sad at points. She was a wonderful writer.
