3. The Ghost And Mrs Ragnarrok
Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders star as respected novelist Florence and movie star Selina, in a sparkling comedy series about two sisters at war, by Veep writer David Quantick.
Selina鈥檚 close personal ex-husband Andrew has died and 鈥� much to Florence鈥檚 rage and fury - left her a small Picasso. Meanwhile the murky waters of daughter Lucy鈥檚 parentage are stirred as Florence鈥檚 PA Mrs Ragnarrok has a mysterious meeting with Jonathan, who happens to be Lucy鈥檚 father. Unaware of any of this, Lucy continues to plan the round-the-world yacht voyage that everyone has completely forgotten she is about to undertake.
鈥淭he leads鈥� natural chemistry, plus David Quantick鈥檚 witty script鈥� make for an enjoyable comedy with series potential鈥� The Observer
鈥淚t鈥檚 as slick, dark and funny as one would expect 鈥� but surely this cannot be a one-off? The ending alone leaves us begging for a series鈥� Radio Times
鈥淔rench and Saunders sparkle with a magic that is so rarely heard in new radio comedies that I鈥檇 almost forgotten it was possible鈥� Daily Telegraph
