Acorn Antiques | Victoria Wood & Julie Walters | DVD | New & Sealed

Step inside Acorn Antiques, Victoria Wood’s affectionate send-up of the British soap opera. Behind the counter, Julie Walters plays Mrs Overall and Celia Imrie plays Miss Babs, while wobbly sets, awkward entrances and dramatic turns make the antique shop a place where almost anything can happen.

Originally seen as part of Victoria Wood as Seen on TV, the sketches reward anyone who enjoys comedy that knows exactly how television can go charmingly wrong. Put the DVD on for a dose of classic BBC humour with a cast that commits to every joke.
