Ab Fab: not before the watershed, sweetie

Absolutely Fabulous creator Jennifer Saunders is absolutely clear about her views of a BBC suit who rang her over where to schedule the comedy, reports the Daily Mail. "Someone rang up and asked me if we could put Ab Fab on pre-watershed, and I was like, 'Have you ever seen the show? Could we put Ab Fab on pre-watershed? Are you an idiot? Yes you are, you're an idiot.' Why are there so many idiots? They don't understand how television works, that's what I can't bear. It's that kind of management theory that if you can manage a chain of shops then you can manage a television company, and you want to go, 'No you can't actually.' They are just idiots." That's another commission secured then.
