Monday were something to look forward too. Sitting on the luxurious sofa, with big bags of crisps and over-sized bottles of wines, I truly looked forward to a Monday evening. Then a programme came on. A programme which touched me with its emotion, humour and passion. Real Women. A story of five friends who were born and brought up in London, each going to their ways. Marriage and work separated them, but when news of Susie's (Michelle Collins) wedding gets out, the 'mates' are rejoined to catch up from the past and look towards the future. Mandy (Pauline Quirke), the mother, Anna (Frances Barber), the one who apparently has it all, Janet (Gwyneth Strong) the struggling wife, Karen (Lesley Manville), the listener and Susie, the wife-to-be.
Truly amazing. Its a three-part soap which will make any family want to watch it, over and over again!
With an all-star cast and superb direction, Real Women is a programme which is quite simply...excellent!
