Twenty four years after Patsy and Edina first hit our TV sets in Absolutely Fabulous, the fashionable comedy duo are about to return on the silver screen in their first feature film, Ab Fab: The Movie. Here's everything you need to know about the film...

Who will be at the premiere?
Well obviously Jennifer Saunders, Joanna Lumley and the other core characters will be making an appearence with rumours abounding that there will be a spectacular stunt of some kind. We are also hoping that some of the film's fabulous cameo characters will make an appearence- think Kate Moss, Jerry Hall, Joan Collins, Jourdan Dunn and Suki Waterhouse all posing up a storm.
What is the plot of Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie?
The official synopsis reveals: "Blamed for a major incident at an uber fashionable launch party, Patsy and Edina become entangled in a media storm and are relentlessly pursued by the paparazzi. Fleeing penniless to the glamorous playground of the super-rich, the French Riviera, they hatch a plan to make their escape permanent and live the high life forevermore!" Thanks to the trailer, we know that the 'major incident' happens at a glamorous fashion event when Patsy and Edina make a beeline for Kate Moss and accidentally push her into the Thames.
So is Kate Moss killed off?
Pictures of a sequin-clad Moss emerging from the Thames with a glass of bubbly and a 'ciggie' broke last November, and judging by the trailer it seems like Patsy and Edina kill off Mossy. We see a police search party scouring the Thames for the supermodel's body and news reports showing pictures of the wanted terrible twosome. Stella McCartney then throws a brick through Edina's window - "the only thing she has ever received from the designer."The extended trailer then shows Patsy and Edina escaping to the South of France.
Joanna Lumley has said about filming with Kate Moss: “Yes, she kills Kate. Kate was such a sport. She was genuinely excited to be part of it. She had to get drenched wading through the Thames but that’s the sort of thing you do as a model. She never complained, she knew all her lines. She was warm and funny.”
