“About ten minutes into the first episode I realized that I KNEW I knew the voice behind Grandma Guignol - and it was the second time she said the name “Brenda” that it hit me: it was Anne Reid from Victoria Wood’s classic British BBC comedy series “Dinnerladies”. (Wood’s character is named Brenda.)
Reid has such a lovely and distinctive voice that she made it so easy for me to become completely absorbed in the story, and I have so many happy memories getting TV shows sent from the UK back in the 90’s that I’m filled with pleasant feelings of nostalgia even while hearing THIS story for the first time.
I’m so happy I found this program, completely by chance!”
