| BSG Review: |
Rude, crude and full of celebrity guests, Ab-Fab, has become
a cult hit both in the UK and abroad. Ab-Fab's comedy is an
acquired taste which you will either love or hate. Since series
three the laughs have started to disappear and we feel Saunders needs to stop now as this sitcom is rapidly outstaying its welcome. |
