fab news

While surfing for photos for Mr. Boyer's award-winning birthday snark, I discovered some startling news. Maybe y'all knew this, but we did not at our house.

Ab Fab has a 5th season!



How did this happen without our knowing? You can go here to read all about it. The site includes clips and photos. Here is the season's lineup (the episodes ran this fall with the last one on Dec. 5):

Cleanin'
Book Clubbin'
Panickin'
Huntin', Shootin' and Fishin'
Birthin'
Schmoozin'
Exploitin'

A description of Episode One, Cleanin':

Saffy has been away in Iraq as an aid worker and Eddy has had no one to curb her extravagance. A 'lap pool' has been installed in the bathroom and Eddy is receiving regular, expensive, tan treatments. Her approach to business has also become increasingly sloppy. Clients have deserted her in droves.
Eddy is not unduly worried. She continues to take little interest in her remaining client -- Emma Bunton.
On the day of Saffy's return Eddy gets her act together. Everyone is enlisted to clean the house from top to bottom. Even Patsy helps.
When Saffy finally arrives home she has some shocking news in store for Eddy.


Oh, and apparently, last year there was a special called "Gay"! How did we miss it? (This country sucks.) A description:

The one-off episode 'Gay', in which Eddy is reunited with her estranged son Serge, received an audience of almost nine million. According to The Mirror this success has persuaded Jennifer Saunders to pen another six-part series.
