Characters
Annette Bening is so cynical that it’s humorous and Jennifer Saunders adds just enough sarcastic bite to remind us ever so slightly of Absolutely Fabulous .
As a fan of Absolutely Fabulous and The Vicar of Dibley , naturally I enjoy seeing the lovely comedy duo Jennifer Saunders and Dawn French.
Intriguingly, there’s also Linnet’s godmother ( Absolutely Fabulous veteran Jennifer Saunders), who happens to be a communist.
Along with Bouc and his mother, wealthy artist Euphemia (Annette Bening), the Doyles are (for some reason) spending their honeymoon with a group that consists of Linnet’s ex, Linus Windlesham (Russell Brand, “Forgetting Sarah Marshall”), an aristocratic doctor; Louise Bourget (Rose Leslie, “Game of Thrones”), Linnet’s lady’s maid; Linnet’s cousin and Oxford-educated lawyer, Andrew Katchadourian (Ali Fazal, “Victoria & Abdul”); her godmother, Marie Van Schuyler (Jennifer Saunders, “Absolutely Fabulous”), who has denounced her wealth since becoming a Communist; Marie’s nurse and companion, Mrs. Bowers (Dawn French, “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban”); the aforementioned Salome, hired to sing at the couple’s wedding; and Salome’s business-savvy manager and niece, Rosalie (Letitia Wright, “Black Panther”).
