I sort of met her back in the day. She was modelling, and I was studio assistant to the photographer... so I did the errands, like getting her coffee, and so on. She was very pleasant and funny, and nice to everybody... but thoroughly professional, too.

She looks like a real life doll! I don’t love celebrities usually but I do love Joanna Lumley! ❤️

What a beautiful classy woman. We all had Purdey haircuts back then, but absolutely NOBODY looked like Joanna Lumley with it !

She never took herself too seriously a good quality I would say.

One of the few celebrities I would ever care to meet. She seems fun and genuine. When i was a kid, I thought she was super cool as Purdey. 😊

I love Jo's voice, it's not too deep not too high with a lovely british accent. I think that's how a real womans voice should sound, a little jealous myself.

I was only one when this program was aired. She is still as gorgeous as ever today. :)

If only such women existed in 2024.

OmG that walk! I love it! Watch patsy wind-up for this walk in Absolutely Fabulous season 2 episode 1! Haha

Love this woman 💕

Yes she's no Jo but a Joanna, pure class and still is. She could own her own school for Finishing ladies of today.

I don't recall that she's ever shamed herself in public, or in the press, like so many famous people today.

My mum and a few of my aunts had that haircut back in the 7-s they said it was called a purdy cut after her character even kids had it

Wow! Beautiful but funny lady!!! ♥

English woman are so elegant

@skibum7986 Thats a Purdy haircut from her character in the New Avengers who no doubt influenced Diana's harstyle

So very beautiful and a wonderful human being

Lumley's wedge hair has some serious volume! I mean it's rolled inside like the cuffs on one of the sweaters I own.

Wow - she really stood up

Immensely classy lady.

@MikeTeaveeJr I am not sure, but those were very much commonplace on BBC during the 60's or 70's.

Beautiful elegant lady.

wow she is so elegant! I always wanted to be like that!

She's got a comedy thing going already...no wonder she excelled as Pats.

love her haircut !!!!!!!

Wow! Most beautiful woman in whole universe, think about from birth till now.…......just wonderful excitement!!!!!!

The only shoes I could ever get like those back in the 70s were for my Barbie dolls

@hattie1978 Is that right? Upper Class. Well thank you for the information. That's nice to know.

Ding, dong!

this was done at the time of The New Avengers

Only JL can pull off a Purdey's haircut!

@TIBBSY it makes her all the more charming

I enjoyed reading her book whereby she interviews herself. But I have to say its not a voice that could be seen to be posh but an accent!

She's a very beautiful lady. But when she said "Do you think my voice is posh? Now what does the word "posh" mean?

@davidpar2 Undoubtedly.

What brand of Mic is that ?

@Enerjee Oh yeah? Well for your information, find someone of aristocracy who's penniless and find someone from London's eastend slums who's a millionaire.

Her Shake n Vac years

She was born to play Patsy.There was always something edgy about her.

hair like Dorothy hamill

god some of the sexual remarks here are disgusting should be removed pitiful

@misterbateman808 you probably should of kept that to yourself Gross
