Barbara Windsor
Mel & Sue
Documentary about the lives and careers of Britain's favourite female double act, famed for their beautifully pitched, raised-eyebrow humour, cheeky innuendo, and a clear, banter-filled warmth for each other, which audiences can sense comes from years of genuine friendship.
