[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

I am equally excited!

[clever name]

YAY!

[best12bars]

I want blogs and flogs! My favorite cheese, that sort of thing!

Yes, Twitter it!

LOL

[romantico]

Anyone know when this airs in the USA and on what network?

[strummergirl]

Gran looks great!

[Scripps2]

"Gran looks great!"

Gran in her younger days:

Great photo of June Whitfield! I don't think I've ever seen her that young before. (At least not that I know of.)

EDIT: Wow, I just looked her up, and she's 86 now! Go, June!

[StockardFan]

I think it's going to be on LOGO, but I haven't been able to find out when. If anyone knows, please share?

[best12bars]

^ Yes, please.

[Reginald Tresilian]

Great photo, Scripps!

I love her BBC Miss Marples as well.

[FindingNamo]

Who even knew this existed? I didn't.
NSFW unless you can look at male ass-meat at work

[Reginald Tresilian]

Not me.

It's funny how French Patsy hits everything with her purse. Like a Gallic Ruth Buzzi.

[FindingNamo]

It's weird to see the exact replica scenes. Like Gus van Sant's "Psycho."

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

For the rest of the day I'm going to have "Fabuleux, Absolument Fabuleux" running through my head.

I remember hearing this was being made and I did once try to find it on dvd, but never could.

[Luscious]

The 3 new episodes will air on both LOGO and BBC AMERICA. Both networks are co-producers of the specials. Air dates still TBA.

A morbid curiosity of mine was to find the unaired pilot of Americanized version of Ab Fab (that had Kristen Johnston and Kathryn Hahn). The stills I found make it look like two people in Edie and Patsy costumes for Halloween but after seeing the unaired pilot of Americanized Spaced, I feel like I can take on seeing any doppelgangers of shows I love.

I've never "gotten" this show. It's never made me laugh. I don't think it's bad, and I'm not here to sh!t on anyone else's opinion of it, as most people I know adore it, but I haven't thought about it in forever and this reminded me. It's up there with "The Big Lebowski" in the ranks of media that make me feel in a teeny-tiny minority among people whose opinions I very much trust.

[Mister Matt]

I love the sampling of Planet Claire!

[StockardFan]

Do we still not know air dates?

[EVIE]

This needs to air now!

[FindingNamo]

Sunday January 8, BBCAmerica at 10pm.

[Scripps2]

In brief: better than a lot of the one-off specials but not as good as Ab Fab at its 1990s peak.

The set for Eddie's bedroom looked as if she'd picked up the furniture when Habitat closed down.

A belated Christmas gift. Watch before it gets pulled.
