KATHY BURKE ..MONEY MONEY

Oh yes Sarnia She was great as Waynetta too. I'm not sure which channel was repeating Gimme Gimme Gimme recently.
Unfortunately it has finished now

I watched it. I applaud her ethos regarding money. I’ve also wondered why there is this perpetual want for more and more money. After all......you can’t take it with you, it creates jealousy in others, you can only drive one car at a time..... the more possessions one has the more room needed for them, the more they need looking after. Money won’t create security, in fact it can create greater feelings of insecurity. It is my belief that the search for happiness, peace, and so forth is the better route.

Agree with everyone else. Shes great, and as
someone who drops the occasional F-bomb myself, I didnt find it offensive ( although I do in some programmes?). She seems to fit in everywhere with anyone. And totally happy in her own skin. Look forward to next week and hope we see more of her in this capacity.

3nanny6 - I also hate the "C" word and also laughed at her use of it!!
I enjoyed the programme & like I Kathy, she does have an amazing ability to connect with all sorts of people. She is clearly very contented with her life, which is an example to us all.
I like her definition of "rich"- being able to pay your bills, have food on the table, clothes to wear and something in the bank. This was pretty much the attitude of my father when I was growing up in the 60s and 70s.
I was bemused by the young people making lots of money by posting tic-toc videos on-line, not really sure what that is all about. I am fully aware that I have made myself sound very old but I cannot comprehend this habit of posting videos and selfies to share with the world!

We watched this and her previous one about the beauty industry , I have a laugh every time I hear the record " sexual healing " which was Wayne and Waynette song. I always liked her in her previous work but even more so now as she is straight with people and you feel if you met her you would get on .

Oh I loved Gimme Gimme Gimme. I'll have to watch this new programme as I think she's great and just says it how it is.

On 4

Having a bit of money created security for me, I was a single parent and sometimes couldn’t afford to replace a light bulb, I suppose we are all different.

SueSocks : I did laugh when she used the C word she sounded so funny. It is a sort of forbidden word for me probably because I had a mother that never swore that is nice but it didn't give me any foundation of how swearing went on in the world. Of course now I have been on occasions let out a few F words although life is quite peaceful so mainly I don't.
I liked the meeting she had with the young ones that were doing the tic-toc videos and her insistence she needed a cup of tea was just her classic down to earth personality.
I too am not a follower of these tic-toc videos and so do not know much about them, but it seems they were very lucrative to those young people involved with them.

3nanny6, I loved it when she said no wonder they couldn't make a cup of tea, all the milk had been poured in the bloody bath

I feel that Kathy has great empathy for people as she had a difficult childhood herself.

JaneJudge, she asked for tea a few times and mentioned she didn't want that bloody Earl Grey stuff it had to be proper tea, a woman after my own heart.

mine too

Are not tik tok videos just the follow on from story tellers, actors on stage, talkies, films …. The whole of history there have been people who want to be in the spotlight

did you see where they were living TizLiz, apparently the guy started out as a youtuber (according to my teenage son)

I love Kathy too, my ex taught me a lot about swearing, he never swore but would say, 'you lazy, selfish whore...' etc. it was so offensive, yet you listen to billy connolly or Kathy B & they swear all the time yet its not offensive. I love hearing the F word etc more often cos it really doesn't matter. I loved it when she said she calls boris a c**t and her followers go up!!! The more people that recognise the damage done to society by the Tories the better

I love Kathy Burke, she made me laugh in the programme, she can get away with saying things that others cant. Id love to watch repeats of Gimme Gimme Gimme, where are these on please, can anybody tell me.

Battersea It was on BBC2. I believe all episodes/series are on the iplayer.

Can’t stand the woman, and her language is appalling.

Love Kath Burke she tells it how it is the programme informative she shows a lot of empathy towards people

Love Kathy Burke - was a big fan of Gimme Gimme Gimme. I’ve recorded the programme but haven’t got round to watching it yet. Looking forward to it.

I find her repulsive to be honest, so don’t watch anything with her in ( ditto Miriam Margolyes)
As for Gimme Gimme !
Why are those who f and blind thought to be ‘real’? She’s an actress.

I hare the f word even though it is becoming common usage.
However I agree with Kathy Burke’s philosophy about money,
Why crave more than you need or can spend.
I have enough to live a decent life, I don’t need to stay in 5 star hotels several times a year, I actually don’t have one holiday a year but I am content.
I have a roof, a good roof , over my head, I am warm enough and enjoy good food.
Many are far worse off than me.
Why would I need more?
Kathy Burke is a realist, we need more of her sort.

I loved it when the Tik Tok lad said "Am I allowed to swear?" and she said "You're talking to ME!"

I think she is embarrassed to be as rich as she is (actor, theatre producer etc) She uses bad language to try to bring herself down to the people she mixes with. Harry Enfield appeared to be uncomfortable about talking about money. I think she is funny though,but wish she just accepted her money and enjoyed it.
