Product Description
Box set containing all 31 episodes of the spoof chat show, including the pilot and the Christmas Specials. Starring BAFTA-winning comedienne, Caroline Aherne ('The Royle Family'), this highly successful and multiple award-winning show saw a host of celebrities queuing up to be interviewed by Aherne (in extensive makeup) as the barbed, octogenarian pensioner chat-show host with a penchant for double-entendres and rude questions delivered in a seemingly innocent tone. Amongst Mrs Merton's brave guests are Steve Coogan, Ant and Dec, Rolf Harris, Michael Parkinson, Peter Stringfellow, Vinnie Jones and even Hollywood legend, Tony Curtis, along with many others. Co-writer and fellow Royle Family actor, Craig Cash, appears as Mrs Merton's son, Malcolm.

I just love Caroline Aherne... this is an exchanting show, and i just grew to love the characters in the audience as much as her.
Taking her audience to Las Vegas for 2 shows there, was simply the most heartwarming thing the BBC could do. Such a treat for these wonderful old people.. It broke my heart when Jim said, before leaving Las Vagas,
"back to the reality of loneliness"
Never once boring, and with loads of laughs, I watched the series back to back...

Absolutely brilliant, I watched most of the 5 series within a few days of getting this.
The best bit is "Perfect Day" on the X'mas 1997 Special, but also it features all the best guests Dale Winton, Russell Grant, Debbie McGee, Rolf Harris & Max Bygraves.
Well worth it.

Well,when first broadcast I only watched a couple of episodes of this award winning show.
Thanks to network it can all be enjoyed once more,in good quality of sound & vision.
Basically it's a chat show that doesn't conform to the conventions of programmes in this genre,which makes it all the more appealing!.
Mrs Merton,played by Caroline Aherene,employs an unorthedox interviewing style that amuses & sometimes embarrasses her unsuspecting guests.She uniquely combines comedy & audacity when delivering her questions.
You'll be laughing out loud at this,I guarentee!.
If you don't find this funny,I doubt you'll find anything funny!!.
I'm glad I bought it!!.

Still as funny as I remember it.
I think Caroline Aherne is a comedic genius. I remember watching this show when it was on tv, and I'd be disappointed whenever I missed an episode. Read more
