Victoria Wood (Commander Of The British Empire) is one of Britain's best loved comediennes.

I've been a big fan of Victoria ever since the mid eighties when her BAFTA award winning sketch show, Victoria Wood As Soon On TV was first broadcast.
This was a show that featured Victoria along with a cast which consisted of many of her friends (including Julie Walters), that all became caricature's of people often from the North of England, performing short comedic sketches. Arguably the most popular being Acorn Antiques.

In the late 80s Victoria appeared on TV with some hugely successful stand-up shows, where, she again, impersonates many people from the North of England.
My favourite sketch being where she walks on stage wearing a long mack with a beret on back to front, all wide eyed, asking the audience, "Has anyone seen Kimmm-ber-ley?" in a broad Northern accent (pictured below).

In the late 90s she went on to write and star in the successful situation comedy series, Dinner Ladies.

Her more recent work have been dramas.

I sent her a 4 page A5 LOR, 2 A4 photos, SASE.

I'm very pleased with this success as Victoria is an extremely private person and she also took the time to add a short note on the back of my photo. :D

I don't want to upset anybody or cause any negativity here but that is not Victoria woods handwritten note or her signature. I have many items signed by Victoria in person from her live shows and TTM (dinnerlady's) etc etc and none of them resemble that signature anywhere near...
If you check her authentics on eBay you will see that she never signs Victoria that way. It is really very strange for me to see this fake. All I can think is her agent or somebody else has signed it for her. The reason why i don't know.?? Weird..But if you don't believe me and what to believe it is real then that's ok with me. {up}

Possible she's changed it?

She does generally sign with a V and a line instead of a full Victoria.
