Private Notes
Documentary about the fantastic 'Acorn Antiques'.
All the sketches from the classic spoof soap! Thrill to the heartwarming exploits of these antique-loving scallywags as they ply their skilled (or perhaps not so skilled) trade, in that tiny (and yet, at times, not so tiny) shop on the outskirts of Manchesterford. All your favourite episodes are here, all the rascally yet therapeutic shenanigans that showered fame, fortune and glittering prizes!
Acorn Antiques: The Musical! is the all-singing all-dancing fully overalled stage version of the beloved TV spoof. This triumphant West End production brought together Julie Walters (Mrs Overall), Celia Imrie (Miss Babs) and Duncan Preston (Mr Clifford) - the original cast of the series. Directed by Sir Trevor Nunn (Les Miserables, Woman in White, Starlight Express), the show was written by Julie Walters' understudy, the award-winning, Victoria Wood!
Filmed during the sell-out run at the beautiful Haymarket Theatre, features an all-star supporting cast of Josie Lawrence, Neil Morrissey & Sally Ann Triplett.
Starring Victoria Wood, Julie Walters, Celia Imrie, Duncan Preston, with the snobby continuity announcer played by Susie Blake, Acorn Antiques was a mini soap opera set in a shop on the outskirts of Manchesterford.
Viewers were gripped with the everyday dramas that beset Miss Babs (Celia Imrie), Berta (Victoria Wood) and the glamorous Mrs Overall (Julie Walters).
