Caroline Aherne, the soulmate we all wish we had.
17 February 2024
I stumbled across this last night and as I always liked her and had a big soft spot for her I put it on.

Wow! What a wonderful tribute to a remarkable genius (literally). She had an IQ of 156. But a genius comic, writer and a wholly loveable, and well loved northern lass.

This documentary really honours her and has some truly laugh out loud as well as some literal tearjerking moments.

It interviews many of her lifelong friends, colleagues and peers. I ended up feeling like I knew her personally once it was over.

If you can find this on iplayer or wherever you can, I'd urge you to watch it if you enjoyed watching Caroline when she was Mrs Merton or Denise in the Royal Family. I had to burst out laughing when it showed her on the Fast Show doing her bit as a weather presenter and she kept saying "Scorchio" when she was putting the symbols on the map. I still say scorchio to this day. Bless her.

A remarkable documentary, and a fitting tribute to a beautiful soul, who also happened to be comic gold.
