Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie

Well, Britain’s bombastic booze-loving fashion figureheads are back for some familiar naughty fun and frolicking for committed _AbFab_ fans to rejoice. So brace yourself “sweetie darlings” as TV-based drunken divas Patsy and Edna make their boisterous and cheeky return to the big screen in the off-kilter and shrewdly amusing **Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie**. Clearly, ardent followers of the _AbFab_ dipsy duo will embrace the further hazy-minded exploits of Edna Monsoon (Jennifer Saunders) and Edna Stone (Joanna Lumley) as they are given permission at the box office to create more large scale chaos that laid the feisty foundation for their high-wire antics on the boob tube from the early 1990’s.

They go to one event run by "Magda" (Kathy Burke) and somehow Kate Moss ends up in the Thames. Accusations fly and soon our dynamic duo are on the run to the Cöte d'Azur to avoid charges of murder! Once there we enjoy the usual drug/drink fuelled party and casino humour with some guest appearances from the likes of Barry Humphries, Lulu and finally Ma
