Further details
Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, is shopping for cut price animal print leggings - or Jodhpurs as she prefers to call them.
It's movie night in the Murdoch household; Germaine Greer is ranting at a student as she waits at the bus stop; long-suffering OAP Kay is at home with her stubborn elderly mother during a storm... there's a foot of water in the lounge - but mum is staying put.
Meanwhile Dame Maggie has a new job as a vlogger and the planners have their sights on a run-down housing estate - but is gentrification good for everyone? The scene is set for a rap challenge.

Press
Although sketch shows are naturally dilettantish, Ullman's skims too many surfaces. The impersonations - Maggie Smith, Germaine Greer - are on the money and skits such as the one about greetings cards all being rude nowadays are solid, but it's all a punchline or idea short. Observations on gentrification and posh actors lack a fresh point, and a playlet about a woman thwarted by her elderly mother hasn't time to develop its pathos.
