Grumpy Old Women Live [DVD]

Cheap tat to get your grandma for Christmas, which is exactly what I did. It's clearly just a forgotten, decades-old property that nobody watched and has been gathering dust for 20 years since, but it'll provide a few hours' worth of semi-decent comedy suitable for any saccharine family gathering you might choose to subject yourself to (relatively few, hopefully).

This really is an excellent DVD. I'm a big fan of both Jenny Eclair and Dillie Keane anyway and they're joined here by Linda Robson. Combine that with a script by Judith Holder and Jenny Eclair and the result is just hilarious. The show begins essentially with a statement from Keane that to be a Grumpy Old Woman, you don't need to be old or a woman - it's a state of mind - which is very true - I'm a grumpy old woman myself and I'm a bloke.I found myself agreeing with just about every word of the series of rant-based-monologues - particularly the ones about what happens when a Grumpy Old Woman gets drunk! I do that!!!Just about every aspect of Grumpy Old Life is covered, from unwanted presents and "having a fall" through to the hours of pleasure that can be gained from a good catalogue.The show is filmed live in a theatre and the quality of the filming is superb. The camera work is great, the lighting and set are just right - a suitable backdrop but not detracting from the performances. The three performances are just fantastic and all three look like they're really enjoying it.

True to life and great fun.

It's ok but not as amusing as I thought. The second half is smutty

Great live show, very VERY funny, and I'm a man! Lol

Great dvd, really funny and puts a smile on your face. Can relate to lots of the jokes so must be grumpy too!

Having seen all of the (better than grumpier old men) grumpier old women takes that step forward and goes on tour in a show that really works live and is very laugh out loud funny, and the three GOWs give a great performance

What is undoubtedly an enjoyable evening in the Theatre does not dissappoint on DVD. It kept us laughing.
