Series Info

A caustic and clever British comedy about two neurotic friends who are dedicated followers of fashion. Edina's in PR, while Patsy's a magazine editor, though work isn't something they do very often. Drinking is, however, as is man-chasing (sometimes literally). Co- star Jennifer Saunders created the series, which debuted on the BBC in November 1992.
