THE FUNNY, OPINIONATED, UTTERLY BRILLIANT MAUREEN LIPMAN
In the kitchen of her basement flat in west London, Maureen Lipman is preparing a cafetière of coffee while sporting a pair of magnificent oversized sunglasses. ‘Sorry,’ she says, gliding around, filling the kettle and rooting out a tub of Coffee-mate. ‘I’ve lost my glasses so, until I find them, I’m wearing these rather pretentious shades.’ There’s not a whiff of pretentiousness about Maureen. The very fact that she’s invited us into her home for an interview
says it all: open, welcoming and trusting, the Hull-born actress and author is also a woman completely in charge. The actress and writer has been making us
laugh and think for fifty years. Gemma Calvert finds that she's as funny and provocative as ever.
