Truly love this film and so glad that I was finally able to get hold of a copy. Victoria Wood is a genius. All her favourite actors are cast and they do full credit to her writing skills. Thora Hird in a small role almost steals the show. "They didn't have dyslexia then, you were sat at the back with raffia". Brilliant piece of comedy delivery. Julie Walters' versatility as an actress is breath-taking. If you haven't seen it, buy it.
Pat Bedford (Julie Walters) is the top US soap star arriving in her native Britain to promote her latest book on the chat show 'Magic Moments'. Little does she know that the producers have their very own 'magic moment' lined up for her - a surprise (shock!) reunion with the sister she has not seen for nearly 30 years - Margaret Mottesham (Victoria Woods) is in the audience with her pals from the motorway service station. Pat's horror at being confronted, live, with a frumpy, lower class sister with a bad perm, continues as she is co-erced by dippy (and pregnant) PA Clare (Celia Imrie) into moving her sister into her hotel to do photo spreads for magazines and interviews.
Margaret, meanwhile, is unable to get a message to her work mates - who think she has abandoned them for the high life - or her boyfriend, dyslexic Jim who lives with his tyrant of a Mother (Thora Hird).
When a nosey columnist begins to look for Vera, the mother of the girls, Pat and Margaret join forces to find her first and prevent more revelations hitting the front pages. A warm, witty and sentimental story, packed with Victoria Wood's cracking one liners, this is a must for all her fans. Thora Hird gives one of her best performances as Jim's blunt Mother.
"They did not have dyslexia when he was at school. You were just sat at back of class with raffia". Classic.
I knocked off one star in my review because the sound is not great in some parts of the dvd - the background music drowns out the speech in the opening shots - but this is a small quibble and should not prevent those wanting a good film for a night in from treating themselves to a BBC gem.
Why so long to release it, BBC? 1994 it was made - shame on you!
This is why I love Victoria Wood's work! She manages to take us on a journey through all the major emotions in this type of production,and even though Pat and....is laced with her cutting wit,we are also treated to moments of tenderness.
Julie Walters is,as usual,outstanding,as is every actor represented. One favourite moment is when the gap between Margaret (Victoria Wood) and Pat (Julie Walters) is blindingly obvious in Margaret's bedsit/flat. Pat is telling her that she knows a really "simple" recipe using fresh pasta,basil,etc,but all Margaret can produce is tinned spaghetti!
