The Fast
Show Returns Online
The cast of hit comedy The Fast Show have reunited to film a
new series.
John Thomson slipped back into character as laid-back Jazz Club host Louis
Balfour when filming started yesterday.
The sketch show, famous for its quickfire catchphrases, made household names
of its stars who played characters including the "suits you" tailors, car
dealer Swiss Toni and overly nostalgic football commentator Ron Manager.
Its creators Paul Whitehouse and Charlie Higson said: "We are delighted to
bring back The Fast Show not only for our old fans but also, we hope, for a
whole generation of new ones.
"We'll be bringing back all our most popular characters from the show and
we've managed to get the majority of the team back together, including
Caroline Aherne."
The new episodes of the show, which was originally a hit on the BBC, will be
available online at
www.fostersfunny.co.uk.

Joanna Lumley - Ab
Fab
Joanna Lumley believes it is a little bit "mad" to reprise
Absolutely Fabulous.
The sitcom is set to return to BBC One after an absence of six years with
the actress and co-star Jennifer Saunders resurrecting their roles as Patsy
and Edina.
She told Woman&Home: "People have such fond memories of it, so we need to
get it right.
"I'm partly thrilled and partly think we're mad to do it, but we thought we
might as well get the old girls out and see what they're up to.
"And we all know that Eddy and Patsy are going to be grotesque and foul,
whatever they're doing."
Joanna, 65, also told the November issue of the magazine that she had a
"love-hate relationship with new technology" and was secretly "a bit of a
Luddite".
"I loathe it in the theatre when, during the interval, people rush to their
pockets and pull out their mobiles to send texts," she said.
"You wonder if there's any point performing to them."

Noel
Gallagher Turns Radio Presenter
Noel Gallagher will become a radio breakfast presenter for
one day next month.
The singer, who releases his debut solo album on October 17, will appear as
a co-presenter on the The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show on Absolute
Radio.
Speaking about Noel, O'Connell said: ''Noel is a legend - plain and simple.
He's been in the business for 20 years and there's nothing he doesn't know
about making records.''
"That said, he knows bugger-all about being a DJ so I'm going to get the
bleeper machine ready and throw him in at the deep end to see what he's made
of."
He added: "Who knows, if it works out I could be his new wingman - I hear
the last guy didn't work out so well."
Gallagher will appear on the breakfast show on October 14.
