It’s ‘The Comic Strip’ take on Psychological thrillers this time around as we follow the story of a middle class woman marrying into aristocricy (becoming the new Mrs. Saunders), and her increasing paranoia due to the mansions housemaid Consuala, who refuses to let her do anything and acts maliciously complient to her every request.

Its a fine enough execution of the psycho drama style of film making, the jokes are pretty fun too, but there wasnt a lot of gut laughs here. Some funny moments…but nothing that truely stood out.

Honestly; It feels almost like this special only really came about because Adrian Edmondson and Jennifer Saunders ACTUALLY DID get married in mid to late 1985…Which does kind of add an extra layer of comedy to proceedings…But also made it feel like this wasnt exactly a stretch for the troupe…

Its fun, but I cant say its a classic…
