The Life and Times of Vivienne Vyle - Writing - BBC Two

[SHELBYCHERMAK]

Never had the chance to see this show.. but if Jen's in it, it must be lovely.. :) AB FAB ROCKS-- keep them comin!!!!

[SmellyCatSally]

You know, I would totally put a full-stop at the end of every piece of dialogue even though it doesn't exist in reality, as Jennifer says, because it SOUNDS like it should be there! I'd be soooo anal about the typing lol!! VV was such a fun show :)

[typhanei]

yep. total crush. but i LOVE intelligence, humour and BALLS, so there u have it... :)

[rationyourenthusiasm]

Does anyone know if there will be a second series of Vivienne Vyle, or was it jut the one? Thanks. :)

[myalternative]

At 1:55, Tanya said Jennifer Saunders wrote for Jam! I thought she meant Channel 4's Jam... which I wouldn't have expected from Jennifer at all! Until I realised she's talking about Jam and Jerusalem. That makes much more sense.

[Nadine91273]

Tanya is Jen's secretary.

[Stirlsxo]

uh, Jen's hair! *orgasms* lol

[stottie92]

Haha their rant at the end! I was wetting myself! ^^ But hey, its people like French and Saunders that really make me proud to be a Britt! True comedians!

[fayesy7]

hahha amazing!

[nekomann]

MsaschaM, I'm so lazy and much too lazy to check but in case no one posted this, it's "Islands in the stream" by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton. AND YES, it was written by a Bee Gee...Barry Gibb, I believe!! Good call and EXCELLENT episode opener!! To the others that posted about Jen being their girl-crush...I am there with you. Her and Dawn make me as happy as Bob Odenkirk and David Cross do. LOVE 'EM!!

[pddavis13]

For some reason, don't know why, but I love the way JS says "dialogue." V. crisp and forceful. I know there is a "performing" video of the this, but it's unavailable to me in the U.S. for some reason. Does anyone know how to get it?

[EJTJ04]

Yep, Irish, you said it beautifully. Jen is my #1 girl crush of all time. She is irresistible without even trying.

[IrishEyes1989]

Okay, going back to some comments that were posted a while ago for this vid - it doesn't matter whether you're a gay man, straight woman, or a bloody alien from Mars, it is impossible not to have a crush on Jennifer Saunders. She's brilliant, adorable, hilarious, and SO hott! Believe me, I'm a straight girl and I'm not afraid to admit that I have a crush on Jen. She's an absolute goddess. Her laugh is heaven and that scarf looks SO great on her!! xxx

[Dymphna10]

@IrishEyes1989 LOL! Yes, COMPLETELY straight crushing on Jennifer Saunders ... so relieved I'm not the only one.  :P

[elmleaoriginal]

oh my god, i've adored tanya byron for years and she's just adorable in this! i think jennifer probably brings that out in most people... love viv, fantastic creation - roll on series 2!

[EJTJ04]

These two are cute together. It appears that they enjoy each others company and got on well enough to write a series. Many can't survive the stress, but due to their intelligence and tolerance, they have appeared to work it out. Kudos to them. This is exactly why women should rule the world. There would be no war. Maybe a little pouting and grumpiness at the most, but no mayhem. Peace has always been my message and always will.

[MsaschaM]

at 1 show off life and times of vivian vyle, is vivian with her husband to singing..

A number of the beegees.. does anybody know which number it is? what's the title named?

Thnx !

[victorbrunella]

i love viv.vyle show .hehe

[crazygreendaygroupie]

Yup, I have a huge crush on Jen and I'm straight too. Her voice...mmmmm =)

[gfurslf]

Oh god me too though I'm not straight! Gay or str8 i don't think there are too many women that would kick her out of their bed.

[TaraistTea11]

me too.  i can't believe she just turned 50. there is no way that can be true. i'm thinking 40 at the most... but french and saunders have been around since the 80's so it must be true.

[jadorejenniferjane]

Jennifer is SO adorable.<33

At 00:23-00:31 and at 01:53-02:05 I thought she was falling asleep haha but she was just sitting peacefully. Real cute. :3

'Natural dialogue..where there is no full stop!' Haha.

[Lilopossum]

Aww thanks for pointing that out - she's so sweet in those peaceful moments. Looks like she's just thinking to herself :)

[choccy15]

is it me or does tanya seem a little bit patronising?? anyway, i love jen!! lol

[boguslaav]

well, no surprise...Jen is hot... and her voice (but I'm not straight)

[andrea500]

Wow, Jennifer Saunders looks really beautiful in this interview. I think that hair colour/style really suits her well.

[LunaSeaSane]

Jen looks like a "Suzy" with blonde hair.

[speakeasy365]

The camerawork and sound on this interview are shockingly bad coming from an institution like the BBC who publish books about making programmes correctly. Shows where the BBCs going perhaps, towards the gutter...

[robbimcmillen]

Maybe that's the style they're going for. Yew do know what style is don't yew?

[robbimcmillen]

Ps, that's in reply to

speakeasy365

[kskelt]

I LOVE this show. Jennifer Saunders is a comic genius!!

[pinocchio22]

has anyone put up vivienne vyle on youtube??

[CeCeLeighCMD92]

All the episodes are up! Its a great show! True Genuis

[AllKindsOfEverything]

Why is Jennifer Sauders wearing a tablecloth around her neck. Do Trinny and Susana do emergency call outs?

[iluvjennifersaunders]

its a scarf and its the fashion dickhead christ whay watch this stuff if you hate her

[abfabcaz]

i love this shw it is abfab lol

jennifer saunders is amazing

[MarkTeePee]

This show was very dissapointing. It was very unentertaining. The show's after it were quite good though.

[buggerwitch]

I LOVE Jennifer Saunders!

[findmysecretgarden]

No one's ever spoofed a talk show, Jennifer? C'mon, what about Brass Eye and the whole Gary shandling deal. anyway, it looks great?

[bestboy1986]

she means the personality of the talk show host, and the whole behind the scenes thing.

kinda like anually retentive, but ofc thats a quiz show.

[MarkTeePee]

still been done before though. Most sketch shows have done it.

[nikki2300dk]

just not as well

[iluvjennifersaunders]

brass eye wasn't a talk show it wa like crimwatch you berk! she is on about a day time chat show! DUH!

[prozacthegigglefairy]

Brass Eye wasn't a talk show, it was a spoof of current affairs programming, not the same idea at all.

[ash180587]

jen's hair in the show looks really good, i think she should stick with that style and color. whenever she had darker hair, in my opinion, it made her look younger just as the blond color made her look older. what does everyone else think?

[roushqueenie]

I dunno...I really like her with blonde hair. But I loved Eddie's hair...crazy and wild! Hahaha. I HATE it when it's REALLY short and dark... but she usually only has it like that for some of the older F&S skits.

[filmjoyce]

I definately love Eddie's hair. The longer hair w/the caps and do rags over it. As in the Death and Poor episodes..

[odainath]

Agreed! Her hair in Death and Poor was brilliant. I went as Edina to a fancy dress from those episodes. lol.

But outside of AbFab I like her with blonde hair. Dunno why. Just do.

[gracebrown01]

Loving that scarf....... :-)

[PhilippaRM]

OMG OMG OMG jen is an effing genius!!!!!!

[MinervaAshford]

Jennifer is an effing genius!!

[filmjoyce]

I have a crush on Jennifer and I'm straight!

[MinervaAshford]

you're not the only one :)

[ketmaniac]

I have, but I'm a straight bloke. And gay blokes have a crush on her too. Maybe lesbians are the only ones that haven't.

But straight blokes have a double-crush - or this one has. Dawn for dessert. Yum.

[HannahFoxx]

even lesbians, trust me :P Everyone's turning, or being more the way are because of her! :D

[saratabruyn]

ohhh i loved this show!!! Jennifer Saunders is absolutely the best, love her to bits and she looks absolutely gorrrgeous !!!

[burkezillar]

Tanya Byron is, well, beyond hot she's stunning. And Jennifer Saunders is also not bad looking. The ultimate fantasy has to be, these two alone with yourself, just messing around. God thats a great thought....

[filmjoyce]

Well I like Jen and anything she does. I know who she is. Maybe you should write an original script and submit it to the BBC since you're a fucking expert.

[hj351]

dear me, such a hateful rant, what did she ever do to you??

[ketmaniac]

"She prefers a particular characterisation."

"She'll attend to a kind of disoriented bumbler."

"Hugh Grant would know what I mean I suppose."

Well, if he does, he's the only one. There's barely a comprehensible sentence in that lot, because each of them is striving to be cleverer than the last. The question is, do you even know what you mean yourself?

[gfurslf]

Looks to me like their having fun, I understood every word.

[Sophieandhearts]

spacca

[solution777]

Tanya Byron is sooooo hot!!

[mothercruncher]

Vivienne Vyle / Jeremy Kyle. Coincidence? I think NOT.

[EricGafricAlfie]

That is exactly wot i thought lol
