There is no more perfect person to “get behind the giggle and the wiggle” of beloved Dame Barbara Windsor (centre) than former EastEnders writer Tony Jordan.
Babs: We begin in 1993 and a 55-year-old Barbara is down on her luck, with her past casting a shadow over her relationships
In this inventive 90-minute drama, he delivers us several Barbaras – Jaime Winstone (right), Samantha Spiro (left) and the Dame herself – in a funny, deeply moving tale about the possibilities in later life when true love comes knocking on your door.
We begin in 1993 and a 55-year-old Barbara is down on her luck, with her past casting a shadow over her relationships.
It’s an unflinching portrait that doesn’t shy away from her tough childhood and mistakes made along the way.
But it’s one delivered with warmth and understanding, with career-defining performances from both Spiro and Winstone. As great as the Dame herself.
