Hey, Smurph (and all), Willy the Shake mentioned this in a post of a couple of days ago:
<<Dunno if you have this documented Mr Murphy Cop, Joni is refered to in an episode of Absolutely Fabulous. Maybe that should be "reefered" to, considering the nature of the story line. I posted the sighting several months back. Which particular show escapes me the noo, but Patsy and/or Edina convolutedly mentions The Hissing of Summer Lawns.>> I remember this episode -- they were actually having a rather shattering fight, which also included Saffy, during which Patsy does mutter "Hissing of Summer Lawns, darling", I forget in what context. Saffy leaves first, Patsy storms out, and Eddy slumps to the floor of the bathroom. Very unfunny, really. In the next episode, they've each gone their own ways -- Patsy has gone off to NYC for a new job (and doesn't fit in there -- she's mistaken by a bunch of leather-clad genderf**k drag queens as one of their own), and we find Edina at a silly New Age resort where she also doesn't fit in. But their fight, in Edina's bathroom, was well-acted and, honest to god, upsetting. Don't know if this helps you find it, Bob -- it was near the end of the orginal run of the series, I think, but that's what I remember of the episode. cheers, sweetiedarling, walt
