Joanna Lumley says she's looking forward to promoting the new Absolutely Fabulous movie which gets its UK premier on the 1st of July.

She says she can't wait to take the film to Cannes, New York, LA and even Australia.

The film follows Eddie and Patsy's escape to the French Riviera after they're blamed for an incident at a fashion launch party.

She says making the movie wasn't so different from how the TV series was made. "So much of the filming for it we did was on location, and Jennifer [Saunders} writes long - so all our half hour programmes were edited down from 15 hours".

The film will feature cameos from the likes of Kate Moss, Harry Styles and Kim Kardashian.

The Ab Fab movie was shot in seven weeks in the UK and the South of France last year, during which it's claimed producers had to ask the cast and crew to stop drinking while at work.
