Bubble does Xena

[skittlehappymatt]

WHen I saw the title...I seriously thought it said "Bubble does Xanax"

xD

[ylvira]

Lol! I don't remember this episode.=)

[dilenko84]

[dilenko84]

and she does the lion king sweety

[no1Smallvillefan1]

cud someone please tell me which series and episode of absolutely fabulous this is cos i really want 2 watch da full episode :)

[novembercherry4]

bubble is hilarious

[jnevesdesousa]

This is not Xena. This is from the Lion King. Thus the reference to Elton John because he did part of its soundtrack.

[Amaunator89]

@jnevesdesousa The ululating after "Ah Sebanya" is from Xena. Hence double reference.

[justaguyfriend]

@Amaunator89 - nevermind, it just became completely clear to me.

They do a lot of double-references on this show. Even dating back to French and Saunders, I could never tell what they were trying to satirize / parody because it always seemed like a little of one thing but a little of something else too.

[SoYourLifeSucks]

I love british humor; Thanks for posting...

[Pighood]

[sootsmoker]

confusion...

[septopia]

probably cause your American, get the remake dribble of fine British comedy second hand

[ipje1]

amazing!!!

[CJSinc]

Bubble's impression of the Lion King...priceless!

[badluckshadow13]

It sounded like she was doing the tribal bits from the lion king...

[marchmarch2007]

She was. A reference to Elton's involvement in it.

[mattphat23]

yeah, that's what she was impersonating. but yes, at the end, Xena, Warrior Princess made that exact same sound when she was attacking some poor fool. lol! :)

[XanArt21]

@badluckshadow13

yesss

[kattmagick]

This new show will never work! I am from the U S and I know if American writers are writing it , it will suck! It will never have the same comedy, or style it will be a waste of time and do a huge dishonor the the real show. it won't last on tv for a season!

[wickedfeylady]

OMG Jane is so cute, I love her hat! And only she could channel Elton and Xena at the same time

[mjisback09]

I luv this episode when eddie sings ''I'm just walking down the road...

[MizzCarlisleCullen]

I LOVE Bubble!

She is so cool!!!!!

[rasputin63]

Truly this episode HAS to be seen in its entirety.... "The Beatles Tapes" and "Patsy's Porno"

OMG!

[Probiscuit]

How many Ab. Fab. series are there in total? They seem quite old in this.

[XenaChakram]

There are 5 plus a couple of movies and Fox just ordered some new episodes for new season!

[jella18]

that's not entirely true... jen won't be writing it... or have anything to do with it... so although the rights have been bought.. it hardly will be the 'good ol' abfab... :S

[XenaChakram]

New cast, New show. Kristen Johnston as Patsy, Kathryn Hahn as Eddie, Zosia Mamet as Saffron unless they make cast changes.

[jella18]

yup i know... don't think i'm gonna watch it... i have a feeling it'll ruin it for me... i'll stick to jennifer :)

[XenaChakram]

I'm gonna give it a chance.

[CF1975]

I always thought Roseanne Barr was working on the American remake of Abfab? Absolutely no idea who the actresses mentioned here are.

[XenaChakram]

She was but that fell through.

[CodyKunLvsGackt]

proof that there is a god or something similar in this grand universe...

[kungfoonun]

Edina monsoon = jennifer saunders

patsy stone = joanna lumley

bubble = jane horrocks

US writers wouldnt ever come up with anything as funny as abfab, theyd just create their own sitcom but using vaguely similar characters and use the brit one as an advertising ploy, like with the office.. ya cant get the same quality with a room full of writers

[kayllo15]

@CF1975 yea idk if i will watch it. it will deff ruin it for me. i hate it when ppl have to recreate stuff. jennifer and joanna are the originals and it shld b stay that way cuz u CANT beat the originals no matter wat

[pwei34]

@CF1975 :Xena is British actress Jane Horrocks; the tall blond is Joanna Lumley of "the Avengers"; Brunette is comedienne Jennifer Saunders.

[XenaChakram]

The reason why I posted it was because it was LIKE Xena. Thanks anyway lol.

[justspenny]

i still piss myself laughing at the xena bit

[marchmarch2007]

I used to do this all the time. Glad I'm not the only one. It's beautiful breaking out into Lion King at moments of stress.

[ziggydamaestro]

Didn't get the Xena bit... got the Lion King bit though!

Explain Xena please - I'm blonde!

[oscarshapely]

Xena (as played by Lucy Lawless in the TV series 'Xena Warrior Princess') ululates like Bubble does at the end of that clip. Search youtube for 'Xena's Awesome Scream'. If you don't know Xena, check it out!

[ziggydamaestro]

0'48" to 0'57" is defo "Lion King" - so I'm assuming your Xena reference is from 0'58" onwards!

Haven't seen any Xena, but I'll check it out! Thanks!

[kkellysjc]

I think that's def from the lion king though what with the elton john reference. just coincidentally sounds like xena a bit at the end.

[SK824]

I LOVE YOU BUBBLE!!!!! ROFL

[GoldenEye333]

two words. DEAD ON. 5/5

[paganjihad]

Does anyone have or know the name of the episode where bubble is on the stairs talking to edina a few feet away on the phone?

[XenaChakram]

I'm not sure which ep that is.

[Charmredux]

That has to be Door Handle, series 3.

[dirtypaper]

No, it's from season 5, episode 6 "schmoozin' great episode by the way :-)

[Juku0911911]

no its definetely not series 3 it cant be series 1-4 since ive got and only seen those ones and its not in them

[Charmredux]

Sorry - it isn't, I was slightly confused... :S It's from series 5, episode called Schmoozin'. Sorry!

[IrishEyes1989]

OMFG one of the greatest Bubble moments EVER!!! :D I laugh hysterically every time I see it! I don't know how on earth Jen and Joanna kept straight faces at the end of that scene!! :D

[judgejudyslover]

JH is fecking mental....she's so class haha

[christentze]

sweet jesus, HAHAHAHA.  does rafiki make that sound? love ab fab.

[XenaChakram]

I don't recall that he does, so I'm not sure :)

[christentze]

haha, well, it doesn't matter.  this is so funny! i just borrowed a bunch of abfab discs...11 hours in total. i dont know which season they are, but im excited! i love all these women! thanks a lot for posting this. my mom about burst her side laughing.

[XenaChakram]

Your welcome, they are both great series.

[codymurp]

it's from the Lion King...Elton John...Lion King...get it?

[XenaChakram]

Yeah, I think everyone gets that. I don't know if you know Xena, the part Bubble does at the end is a war cry similar to Xena that I was taking lite on. Thanks for commenting.

[maidenindigo]

Bubble is my favorite character...they're all great though. XD
