First Broadcast:

A one-hour special showcasing the comic talents of Jane Horrocks in a series of sketches written by, among others, Victoria Wood and Andy Hamilton.

Jane impersonates a sultry singing sensation and a prissy 1950s children's TV presenter with agonising accuracy. She also stars in a wicked spoof of a Jane Austen costume drama, and some hilarious send-ups of those grimly dedicated police and hospital shows.
