The BBC made a hilarious two-part Downton Abbey parody -- Uptown Downstairs Abbey -- for the annual Red Nose Day charity. Narrated by Michael Gambon, the two-parts feature Absolutely Fabulous’ Jennifer Saunders as a marvelously nasty Dowager Countess, her AbFab co-star Joanna Lumley as a housekeeper who knows that she is meant for a posher state of existence, Harry Enfield, Simon Callow, Victoria Wood, a mermaid, a knitted character, and Sex and the City’s Kim Catrall, who impersonates Elizabeth McGovern brilliantly. Here's part two, too.

This is really funny. Glad that a big corporation like the BBC can mock themselves.
