According to the actress who played Patsy Stone in the hit sit-com, she and Ab Fab creator Jennifer Saunders are in talks to revive the show.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, Lumley, who is currently starring in La Bête on Broadway, said:
“Jen wrote to me and said, ‘Let’s talk through it. What do you think?’ And I said, ‘Bring it on. Because we’re all still here.
“Mother’s still alive – the wonderful June Whitfield. Julia Sawalha, Jane Horrocks, the basic five Js. We’re all still alive and available-ish to do it and I think we just have to do it.”
However, a spokesman for Jennifer Saunders said that Saunders would not be releasing any statements about the show’s return at this time.
The last episode of Absolutely Fabulous was screened on Christmas Day in 2004, after seven successful seasons.
