  • A spoof on "Vanessa" written by La Wood, starring Dawn and featuring Wood faves such as Celia Imrie, Duncan Preston, Anne Reid, Lill Roughley and Jim Broadbent. Plus Lynda Bellingham!

      Dawn talked about this in Victoria Wood's authorised biography, "Let's do it". She echoed what a lot of others who worked with Victoria said - that victoria could be very difficult to work with (and sometimes socially too). She also said that she felt like an imposter in this sketch and that she was somehow stealing the role from someone like Julie Walters.

    First there was Oprah, then Trisha, and Vanessa Feltz - now there's 'Dawn'.
    Hilarious! And rather accurately true to life.
    Loved all the famous actors, oops contributers, too.

      +Koala Cat I think virtually everyone featured in this sketch has been in either Dinner Ladies or in VW's As Seen on TV (1 or 2) - in some cases both - except French.

    Wonderful spoof of UK daytime TV. I wonder who the original subject of this was? I thought Trisha but it couldn't have been her, as her show started a few years after this was broadcast. Perhaps Dawn was her inspiration?

      Well agree with you then, Trisha must have used this as her inspiration. Lol 🤣😂🤣

    This should have been amazing, but for some reason it just wasn't funny, shame!! It must have been Victoria's gig, as it includes all of her troupe of actors; also it's a lot of people's dream to have Dawn or Jen & Vic together, I'm wondering if Dawn's just not right for Vic's material. Thanks for the upload xx

      You're talking rubbish, VW was a comic genius and this sketch has all her trademarks. Maybe you just have no taste.

    • @MrDannyDetail
      @MrDannyDetail Před 4 lety +7

      I know what you mean. For a Victoria Wood sketch something is a little off here, and I love pretty much everything else that she has even written, performed or directed. My suspicion is that it was written as 'Julie' with Julie Walters playing the host, but that Julie wasn't able to do it due to other commitments or somesuch.

    • @diane4488
      @diane4488 Před 2 lety +1

      I thought it was hilarious, just as it was.
      Dawn really reminded me of Oprah, Trisha, and Vanessa Feltz, all rolled into one.
