About The Catherine Tate Show
Friday at 10pm
Margaret screams as she opens her birthday cards. An Estate Agent turns up drunk for a viewing and manages to offend both the owner and prospective buyers before passing out.
About the show
With an extraordinary ear for mimicry and a sure sense of character
and comic timing, Catherine Tate presents a stable of unique and
quirky characters.
They include:
Margaret, a woman frightened of her own shadow
Bunty Carmichael, the Doncaster Spinners' best majorette but, at 31, the oldest by about 20 years
Elaine, the Death Row wife who has found love with a convicted murderer awaiting execution
New parents Ben and Karen, determined not to let their first baby dictate how they live their lives
Bernie the Irish nurse, for whom caring for people has always been a passion, just as long as it doesn't interfere with her love of good food and, more importantly, men.
Characters from everyday life are parodied to the extreme as the talented actress morphs through accents and wigs.
