A documentary which delves into the complex inner world of this national treasure nearly ten years after her passing.
Victoria Wood remains one of Britain’s most cherished entertainers - a northern comic genius whose work reshaped the landscape of British humour. But behind the joyous persona - the singer, the satirist, the sharp-witted writer - lay a young woman navigating insecurity, anger and self-doubt. Told in her own words and through the voices of those who knew her best, the film uncovers the formative experiences and personal battles that powered Victoria’s unmatched ability to make the nation laugh. Actor Jessica Barden brings to life extracts from letters, interviews and Victoria Wood’s own personal archive in specially filmed scenes combining readings with dramatisation in the upcoming feature length documentary.
