Re: Victoria Wood RIP

What a great loss. Genuinely funny, talented and an excellent writer. The cafe sketch posted by Gilly is brilliant, especially the part about prawns gathering round at sewer outlet pipes treading water with their mouths open . I use that myself from time to time. That alone belongs with other comedy greats like Four Candles and Monty Python's Yorkshiremen sketch.

Her comedy writing in shows such as Dinner Ladies was always gentle and sometimes touched with sadness which is the sign of true comedy.

Here's one of her other marvellous creations.

We've lost one of the greats today. RIP Victoria and thanks for all the laughs.

A brilliant actor as well as comedy writer. I only watched that 'Housewife 49 ' again the other day. Her look had the ability to say so much more than her words implied, brilliant. RIP Victoria.

Re: Victoria Wood RIP

How can we ever forget her performance of 'let's do it', with the immortal line ' beat me on the bottom with a woman's weekly'. An eternal classic, up there with 'four candles'.
So much natural talent without any of the modern day Diva illusions.😒😒😒
