It’s now 2023, and this is still absolute Comedy Gold, and for me the ‘Market researcher’ with the clipboard is Genius writing and performing. 50 minutes of classic British Comedy, without the need for an expletive every other word!!! The remarkable Victoria Wood, so sadly missed by All 😢😢😢
Her natural comedy timing is just amazing, but, her skill in writing is beyond belief. How she tied different stories into each other . What a genius and so sadly missed
Thirty two years on this still stands up as some of the finest comedy ever televised. It's a tragic loss that Victoria Wood was taken at such a young age.
You are reading my mind, I’m a 60 year old bloke you could say I’m a male chauvinist when it comes to comedians males far funnier than females BOY AM I WRONG just saw this video and I have to say there is no man woman that could ever compete with this lady there is nobody past present or future that can or could hold a light to this woman. Oh and Cassie w. You have just ruined Xmas informing me she has past away. I agree with you CASS W. oh and have a good Xmas and DO STAY SAFE in these tough times Johnuttley
@@Musicienne-DAB1995 I saw this on telly when I was 14. I spent the rest of that year and the next saying "Do you think if she'd lived, Alma Cogan would have become Prime Minister?" at random moments to wind up classmates. Only now do I realise that I was quoting it wrong. Only now do I realise that Victoria Wood was THAT talented that the line stuck in my head everafter, albeit slightly askew. Thank you Victoria Wood, thank you British television in the '80s.
You know it's excellent when it's still funny 32 years later! She's pregnant so this is a beautiful if poignant memory for her children who were privileged to have her as their mother if for a short time. RIP the Pride of Prestwich, Victoria, Queen of British Comedy.
Agreed! All done in one take too!! I’m reading her biography ‘Let’s do it’ at the moment and didn’t realise she was almost 6 months pregnant when she recorded this. Amazing!
Anyone else watching this 2020 and thinking what would she have made of what's going on in the world right now? She'd have made us laugh when we need it most I reckon
I was in the audience at the recording of this performance and still remember it being the funniest show I had ever seen. She was a brilliant comedian and is sadly missed
@@Logick - the joke was that the most unlikely person to ever be in government and involved with politics would be Alma Cogan, who was a big name singer at the time. The combination of Alma Cogan and the government was so ridiculously unlikey that it was comical.
She was hilarious live, my sides actually ached the next day. My mum was worried because I was laughing so hard and I was expecting a baby at the time. X
Saw Victoria live in '93 in Edinburgh: she was dynamite the whole show! Incredible performance from an incredible woman: we all laughed from start to finish. Feel privileged to have been in the presence of such a comedic legend who wore her status as comfortably as a yellow rain mac and a beret. Sorely missed. Her videos are the litmus test to the joy of regular life for regular folk.
Masterclass in performance, writing and music. Why they didn't give her a standing ovation is a mystery to me. One of the greatest comediennes the UK has ever had. Her legend will never be forgotten.
I love when Victoria gets huge laughs without even saying a word. The whole darts thing (and her impression of the inflatable woman losing her air) was an absolute riot. To say nothing of her crown jewel, The Ballad Of Barry & Freda. I miss that woman so much.
The ‘Barry and Freda’ ballard at the end was absolutely spot on! How Victoria Wood remembered all those lyrics I’ll never know. She was the best female comedian ever on tv. No-one else comes close to her amazing talent. Such a sad loss when she died!
If I remember right, with the exception of a few lines that are always there, she changed the lyrics every time she performed it, which if anything, just makes me admire her talent even more.
Living in Bavaria I never got to know of this "remarkable" woman until she appeared on the front of The Oldie. I RUclipsd her and couldn't stop watching. Victoria my dear, I'm so sorry I didn't get to know of you earlier.
1988, the year I got married. Victoria was my favourite then and she still is. Cheeky but no swearing. Even when I saw her live there was nothing you wouldn't let your grandma hear. I laughed so much at her tales of pregnancy when I was pregnant with my second! She was a star. X
I read your Irish national broadcaster RTE used to air a tonne of our British shows, and that your 2nd national channel called RTE 2 was launched in 1978 to show the best from BBC and ITV. Is that right?
@@johnking5174 Hi John. I'm not sure what the setup was at that stage. I was born in 1979. But yes, British vomedybhas always been hugely popular in Ireland. I remember as a kid watching Are you Being Served, the Carry On films, etc...and still love them all to this day!
Her amazing ability to take everyday mundanity and see it’s ridiculous side and incorporate it into intelligent, subtle hilarious and cheeky comedy. She was truly truly gifted .
She was a genius. Not one mistake in the entire performance. She speaks so fast and packs so much into the show. Truly amazing delivery. The audience should have stood at the end.
the female version of Robin Williams easily matched his genius a sad loss at 62... if i had been in that audience i would have stood to give her and ovation & demanded more, because the majority of modern "stand ups" aren't even in the same league.. thank you Victoria!
Miss Victoria Wood was INCREDIBLY talented in a league of her own, she is so still Sorely missed and her legacy still lives on through these wonderful memories, thank you Miss Victoria Wood, may we remember her and her Amazing incredible work, BRAVO.
An amazingly talented lady taken from us far too soon. I was fortunate to see her live in 2004 when she did the "At it again" tour. I left the theatre in physical pain from laughing so much. Thank you for sharing your extraordinary talent Victoria. Rest in peace xx
Absolutely brilliant! Can hardly see for the laughter tears rolling down my face!! Cannot believe this girl was so talented - her observations of life and skills at song writing are beyond belief. I could watch her for hours. What a star - gone FAR too soon.
Been watching this since I was a kid and still makes me laugh so many years later. Still feel that combination of joy and sadness when I watch her stuff these days. Wish we’d gotten to experience more of her magical talent
Dear Victoria, you were my hero at a time I needed one. I'll never be able to tell you❤ Victoria Wood, Ken Dodd and Billy Connolly. The three best 'An Audience with' that were ever produced. This is one that tugs at my heart and gets me in the feels. Taken far too early Victoria ❤ I will miss you forever.
Her fast delivery and superb timing just makes this An Audience With seem so fast and fresh. She never allows you to stop to think, it was simply firing comedy at the audience, which I love.
Loved Victoria Wood hilarious to watch.A great comedienne & I could watch this over & over again & it will always be funny.The ‘Barry & Freda’ ballad at the end was magic.Taken far to soon RIP to a very talented & funny lady.Miss you always ♥️
For 51:47 precious moments.... in the still life that was this morning, there's me; laughing non-stop throughout the entire show, killing myself laughing; but on 'mute' coz nobody else was awake at my place! haha! What a fabulous show and I adored the incredible energy and comic skills of the wonderful Victoria Wood: she was and is, a legend!
Brought back SUCH great but poignant memories for me, especially the Ballad of Barry and Freda. An old schoolfriend and I tried to memorise the song and never even got close but had such fun doing it, over 30 years ago. Sadly he died over 15 years ago, and hearing it again brought all those memories back. RIP and thanks for the many, many memories
Consult the dictionary for a defiition of comedy genius and see this fine lady's name beside it. Much missed, never forgotten. A class act if ever there was one.
Loved that this came up on my suggestions, this programme means a lot to me as this was the last comedy show my mum laughed at of her own understanding before succumbing to alzheimer's and that's because it was truly funny, also one of my favourite sitcoms was dinner ladies, which you can also watch on RUclips
Victoria Wood is so funny she can't even help but smile at her own jokes, doing deadpan seriousness is impossible when you're coming out with such hilarious stuff.
A masterclass, from the most supremely talented comedic genius, Victoria Wood. I rewatch this and many other shows and performances by this absolute icon of British comedy. Mostly with absolute joy and laughter! But tinged with sadness at her loss, far too soon, and wonder at how much more she would have graced us with.
So in 2024 I've watched this yet again for the umpteenth time. Always laugh out loud funny andd still relevant despite being 36 years old. VW was a genius of observation and comedy, saw her many times live and she never disappointed.
I’ve never noticed until now how like Princess Diana she was, some of her mannerism are so similar. Even though I never met her I miss as I would a dear friend. Her comedy is as fresh today as it was then. God rest dear girl.
You hear this word too much and it's given out too easily alot of the time but she was a pure genius. Her comedy was brilliant and timely and she should be in anyone's top five of British comedians.
VICTORIA, stand up ,drama ,sketches all from her pen ,consistently high standard over the years , so sad she's gone like Linda Smith ,Jeremy Hardy they all had so much more to give ,we were lucky to have them.
Cried laughing, again! Watched this so many times since it was first shown 😆 I've subconsciously modelled myself on her over the years. I have ADHD. The more I watch it, the more I'm convinced Victoria was too!
what marked her out as being a great Comedienne was her comic timing and her skill as a pianist and her ear for Dialect and she would not tolerate any actor changing the dialog she wrote for dinnerladies or acorn antiques.
22:38 - I loved the quick drop in the posh accent of the make up woman in the shop, when she said "look" - love that. This is great observation, as yes, people in department stores put on a very posh voice, but it can drop away for a few moments. Loved it.
Magnificent.Totally cracks me up after all this time. Her comical mind ran at a thousand miles an hour. Incredibly hilarious. Thank you so much for uploading this gem of hilarity.
Like all of you, this fabulous talented lady makes me laugh out loud with every line and nuance that she delivers. What an incredible and unique person. X
Emotional to remember how wonderful our entertainers used to be ; how much they understood and loved our national culture. I hated the 1980s living through them, (I was in my 20s) as I felt much more comfortable in the late 60s/ 1970s, but we still had so many entertainers drawing from earlier days and part of a wonderful tradition. What has happened to us?
After a slight pause, the audience understood and then roared! Victoria was such a beautiful woman, and worked very hard on everything she created. Her mastery of words and rhythms is exemplary.
I was lucky enough to see her at the Birmingham Hippodrome. Don’t remember seeing this originally, just seeing it now & trying to remember the celebs in the audience.
21:05 - this marks the best example of comedy performance. Just watch Victoria impersonating this woman who works in the department store, and just listen to her words and watch the body language. A master class in comedy presentation, all done with no props, just the voice and body language. Brilliant.
A very funny lady!! Remember watching this on tv when it aired...such a sad sad loss...she's a National British Treasure ❤❤❤ Great to see Julie Walters in the audience RIP Victoria xxxxxx
I was privileged enough to see Victoria live at the Albert Hall many years ago, I still remember her comparing childbirth to pushing a sofa through a mouse hole. Very funny lady.
Thank you so much for uploading! These Audience With shows were always great but among them all, Victoria Wood and Billy Connolly's were the funniest and best, and the two that still get quoted to this day. Had such a great laugh watching this Media Hussy, thank you!
Im 24 some of her work is before my time and i still adore her got her entire collection brought wood and walters few days ago to complete the collection i really think bbc should make a film about her like theyve done for morecambe and wise and chaplin she deserves it
It’s now 2023, and this is still absolute Comedy Gold, and for me the ‘Market researcher’ with the clipboard is Genius writing and performing.
50 minutes of classic British Comedy, without the need for an expletive every other word!!!
The remarkable Victoria Wood, so sadly missed by All 😢😢😢
Her natural comedy timing is just amazing, but, her skill in writing is beyond belief. How she tied different stories into each other . What a genius and so sadly missed
And she had a good voice for singing... And also plays piano quite briliantly keeping in mind that she's usually singing and jumping on the chair...
Thirty two years on this still stands up as some of the finest comedy ever televised. It's a tragic loss that Victoria Wood was taken at such a young age.
Wow filmed the year I was born and yet she was my comedy hero!

Thinking exactly that!
Definitely 😊
2021 and we still need her to lift our spirits. ❤
i'm watchig this in 2021 thinking what a load of utter crap this is, what are people actually laughing at, she is not funny in the slightest.
@@malbig2344 I agree. Celebrities laugh at anything, all wide mouths just in case the cameras zoom in on them.
Watching in 2024
Still as hilarious as she was in the eighties 😂😂😂
I was in the audience at the recording of this performance and still remember it being the funniest show I had ever seen. She was a brilliant comedian and is sadly missed
I didn't understand the Alma Cogan joke?
How did you get tickets?

@@showmoke Oh I see, thanks for explaining
Where were you then?
Truly the best comedy in history comes from Victoria Wood. I wish I was born sooner so I could have had the chance to see her show live.
She was hilarious live, my sides actually ached the next day. My mum was worried because I was laughing so hard and I was expecting a baby at the time. X

Simon Possibly, but she doesn’t appear to be looking at one.
If I remember right, with the exception of a few lines that are always there, she changed the lyrics every time she performed it, which if anything, just makes me admire her talent even more.
Still funnier than anything today, 100 jokes a minute, pure talent ❤

Simply the best. A national treasure, she was. Rip, Victoria/Bren 😢
