- TriviaDespite achieving huge popularity in the U.K., the show only ran for two seasons, from 1998 to 2000, as Victoria Wood did not want a third series. A second series was unexpected from the writer who said she doesn't like to do anything twice, but Wood felt like she should write a second series as the first had "felt like an experiment".

Featured review
Dinnerladies ranks as one of the best comedies of all all time, it's as witty, hilarious and all out lovely as it was when it first aired.
It's consistent from beginning to end, the humour remains sharp and witty throughout, the characters are incredible, and such is the writing, and the acting, that you care for them. You will see this particularly so in the episode Christine.
Wood's writing was so brilliant, and so selfless, she could have saved the best lines for herself, but she didn't. The lines were generously spread around, however, Walters always seemed to steal the show, Petula Gordino became more and more extreme, and more funny.
Favourite episodes include Fog and the glorious finale Toast.
This was a wonderful, clever, funny comedy, I loved it 9/10.
