  • I just noticed at 5:50 when everyone's jumping to offer Lynda La Plante a light Jennifer doesn't have a lighter, she's just snapping her fingers together. LOL.

  • I've been an F & S fan for a loooong time. They are the best - on either side of the pond. Great to see all those OTHER wonderful Brit gals as well. Thank God that somewhere in the world every actress of a certain age isn't stitched, stretched, and racked out! A little substance, please.

  • bloody fantastic these 2 never fail to make me laugh birlliant thanx fo4r the upload

  • Dolly was the main character in two of my favourite Lynda La Plante (written) series (Widows, She's Out).

    Of strong older women pulling a Job!

    If Lynda is involved, women are great and have great lines (even in Imagine Me and You as well: producer).

    So it goes from top dog to the next higher Top Dog. It's so funny!

  • "You didn't tell me that two-faced bitch was in on it."

  • ive searched for this clip for ages gr8!

  • is there a series called "The Job", of which this is a parody? I would like to see it, to better understand what it is they're making this parody off... (Is that correct english? haha)

  • No, but the whole style is a parody of the TV dramas of Lynda La Plante,and all the women who appear in this sketch have played major roles in her shows.This is one of F&S's finest moments.

  • Thanks..I watched it over and that hepls :P

  • Loved dolly rawlins , ann mitchell rocks

  • The best!

  • Yes! The "what a bleedin' dump" line is hysterical!

  • A very funny sketch, should be called the bleeding widows sketch, luv it.

  • Love this skit. It's so reflexive, which is what I love about their parodies. I can't get "bleeding" out of my head. So funny.

  • lol i love it but it needs WAY MORE Helen!

  • jajajajajaja OMG! Helen's part is so small here! OHH! what a pity! Lynda la Plante, the writer of the Prime Suspect series... "The'll shoot you down gov, boss, ma'am, Helen!" jajajajaja

  • I understand only maybe half of that skit, but I still think it's funny as hell.

  • omg that's great. but is that all of helen's part in the sketch?! thanx for sharing anyways.
