Haha yes, Erin's right there. That's what proofs to me that series 6 was definitely filmed in their actual office: the pictures on the walls are priceless. (might take more screencaps of that later...)

That totally captures my attention every time -- like I just recently noticed that a B&W 80s pic of Dawn and Jen on-stage (someone said it was the first pic of them performing together) is on a desk. Love it!

YouTube has a bunch of the "work" scenes in pretty good quality -- if you search for French and Saunders, they should pop up and there are some great views of the office.

Another one I only recently noticed is a funny scene from the Last Shout: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgiTwQ3yKlI

Look how she's arranging her quilt and pillow: it's exactly like cats do, haha. Again: I've seen this episode a dozen of times, but it wasn't until I read the comments on Youtube that I noticed this. I don't even doubt who came up with this, haha.

I was watching the Paris ep' today and noticed the flashback to Patsy's modeling days. The scene where she's in 60s mode and saying 'Thursday' over and over to the photographer is actually a comment from Stare back and smile- Joanna wrote that the photographers got the models to say 'Thursday' because it gave them a nice pout.

The episode Poor has got to be one of my favorite episodes, and yet I never noticed this earlier:

It's a Youtube cap so the quality is pretty poor, but you can still see she's flicks her ciggie ash into mother's handbag! :lmao:

Neither did I, until someone on Youtube pointed it out in a comment. I keep discovering new things every time!

I've only just noticed that, at the end of the pilot Fashion, Pats is wearing no shoes and her underwear over her actual suit. Edina's fall from the back of that taxi is epic, but this makes that scene actually even funnier... :lmao:
