Jennifer Saunders can never claim to be politically correct. <\/p>\n
It is one of the reasons her show Absolutely Fabulous was so well loved over the years. <\/p>\n
But it is also the reason the comedian has ruled out bringing back the much loved characters, Edina and Patsy. <\/p>\n
The celeb told Press Association, reported by Mirror in the UK, that people are so politically correct now they couldnt get away anything. <\/p>\n
You cant even get away to be a politically incorrect character, because that is seen as being politically incorrect, Jennifer said. <\/p>\n
Everyones down on everyone for everything. <\/p>\n
Joanna Lumley has also said it was best to leave the show where it is, as the world had gone a bit strange. <\/p>\n
Because so much of the world right now is so grim, and hard and fearful, and people so take affront at everything. <\/p>\n
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. <\/p>\n
The Guardian reported Cho had accused the makers of the movie of yellowface, after casting a white person in an Asian role. <\/p>\n
Although they might not be bringing about an Ab Fab revival it hasnt stopped their pair from sharing their humour. <\/p>\n
Its not for all tastes, but they have discussed Donald Trump in this recent interview. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
