Jennifer Saunders can never claim to be politically correct.

It is one of the reasons her show Absolutely Fabulous was so well loved over the years.

But it is also the reason the comedian has ruled out bringing back the much loved characters, Edina and Patsy.

The celeb told Press Association, reported by Mirror in the UK, that people are so politically correct now they couldnt get away anything.

You cant even get away to be a politically incorrect character, because that is seen as being politically incorrect, Jennifer said.

Everyones down on everyone for everything.

Joanna Lumley has also said it was best to leave the show where it is, as the world had gone a bit strange.

Because so much of the world right now is so grim, and hard and fearful, and people so take affront at everything.

The Ab Fab movie released in 2016 had its share of critics; in particular actress Margaret Cho who took offence at a character named Huku Muki, accusing the pair of racism.

The Guardian reported Cho had accused the makers of the movie of yellowface, after casting a white person in an Asian role.

Although they might not be bringing about an Ab Fab revival it hasnt stopped their pair from sharing their humour.

Its not for all tastes, but they have discussed Donald Trump in this recent interview.
