Victoria Wood

I dont think it will all be dinner ladies,I bet there though in Victoria wood as seen on tv. Another series that never seems to get a repeat is this Victoria Wood - 1989 : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_Wood_(1989_TV_series)

This could also get repeat, since he shoved off her acting.

GOLD have the rights to dinnerladies though.

One of this countries biggest entertainers and a true talent.

R.I.P Victoria and THANK YOU for the laughter.

One of my all time favourite memories of her was when she appeared on I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue, and sung Roxanne to the tune of the Neighbours theme. Had me in stitches.

In another episode, she sung the Bob the Builder theme to the tune of "I Dreamed A Dream"...



A sad loss to the world of entertainment.

I was at this recording, it was a joy to hear this live.

Utterly devastated.

One of the few entertainers who could really take the mikey out of politicians.

Her Ann Widdecombe sketch was fantastic.

Always like a person that took the mick out of politics, A running joke now.

A fantastic comedian, writer and actress. Such a loss. Her work will entertain me for many years to come.

When we see the likes of current 'talent' Sarah Millican and Catherine Tate, my god, Victoria Wood shone like a beacon of excellence with never an ill thought or a bad (or swear) word.

I don't scold comedians who swear, only when it's blatant they're substituting proper material for doing so, but I do commend a comedian who can withhold a career nowadays and still be pre-watershed friendly.

It should also be noted Tate appeared on the BBC's questionable Hall of Fame, paying tribute to Wood by performing The Ballad of Barry and Freda.

I think one of Victoria Wood's secrets to success was quality over quantity. She didn't really do appearances on panel shows just Clue and QI, I think, and took her time writing and making her sitcoms and drama series. Most years we would be lucky if we got a new Christmas Special, but the comedy was some of the best.
