Summary: More Ab Fab, YAY!
Comment: I am so glad that Jennifer Saunders decided to bring another season of Ab Fab out. I love this show so much and Series 4 is just as good as Series 1-3. I enjoyed every minute of it and laughed just as hard when watching this series. Also this series has a lot of dvd extras to enjoy including "Mirrorball", which is the show J. Saunders was going to make a series out of but decided to go ahead with another Ab Fab series. Buy it immediately and enjoy, darlings! Cheers, thanks a lot.

Summary: The Girls are at it Again!
Comment: After a hiatus, the Ab Fab team wanted to do something. What came out of this was an pilot called Mirrorball. But then they decided that they had not finished with their Ab Fab characters. They decided to make six more episodes.
Disc 1:
Parralox - This is their take off on the Botox rage. Patsy has found a more potent version of Botox called Parralox and has had injections. Edina is to appear on AM TV and Patsy thinks that she should get some injections to make her look better on TV. In a drunken state Patsy injects Edina to their usual disastrous results.
Fish Farm - Saffy is having the back garden redone and has hired a young cute landscape architect (Crispan Bonham Carter). It turns out that he is younger brother of an old friend of the girls and he has the hots for Edina. Edina sees marrying him and moving to his family's country estate.
Paris - The gang goes over to Paris for a fashion shoot. Edina and Saffy for a mother daughter piece and Patsy for a former model shoot. But Saffy wants to see Paris forces Edina to see her Paris. But this of course doesn't work out and Saffy gives in to her mother and finds a way to bond with her by seeing Edina's Paris. This is one of the best episodes of the series.
Donkey - Edina goes on a diet to slim herself when at a dinner party, the girls say she uses her fat to be a crutch. This is another great episode with great style and unexpected depth.
Disc 2:
Small Opening - Saffy's play gets produced at a small West End theatre. But everyone is hiding the fact that it is an autobiographical play.
Menopause - This is a another final episode for the series. Patsy is suffering from low bone density because at "42" she has gone through menopause. Therefore, Saffy sets up a Menopause Anonymous meeting at the house. Edina's business is once again going under do to a blunder by Bubble. This episode has another hilarious visit by Mo Gaffney.
DVD EXTRAS -
Episode Commentary by Jennifer Saunders and producer Jon Plowman
Disc 2 -
Who's Who - Cast Bios, Again
Let's Get Celebritied Up - Bios on the guest cast
Absolutely Confused - For those that are impaired on anything British including who the Spice Girls are, this will clarify things like who the Prime Minister of Britain is.
Before Ab Fab - Two French and Saunders sketches. The first is about two editors putting together a frivolous women's magazine. The second is a take off of Silence of the Lambs with Jennifer as Clarisse and Dawn as Hannibal.
Joanna Lumley Talks About Modeling - A two minute interview Joanna did when she was a model in the early sixties.
Mirrorball Special - Well the cast is back together but this time they are struggling actors and singers. Vivienne (Jennifer) has had one role in the last five years and that was for a commercial. Her daughter, Freda (Julia) is currently rehearsing Hedda Gabbler. Jackie (Joanna) is Vivienne's best friend and a faded disco diva looking for a comeback. Vivienne has a chance for the lead in the musical version of Angela's Ashes and let's see how the girls screw it up. Also appearing is Jane Horrocks as a Swedish bar maid who is also auditioning for the show and June Whitfield as Dora Vermouth a faded actress who has been touring with the same show for fifty years going from the star to the star's mother to interesting old lady. This is only mildly funny and you can see why the next year they decided to do Ab Fab 4.
Outtakes - 12 minutes of outtakes that make you realize how complex this show really is for the actors.
