"Iconic Absolutely Fabulous character Patsy Stone is transgender, according to Joanna Lumley.
The actress made the tongue-in-cheek revelation while discussing the show's rich history of LGBTI characters and references ahead of the release of the upcoming movie."
I watched all of old Ab Fab not that long ago and I liked the way patsy's gender-fluidity (or transition and detransition depending on your interpretation) was just kinda thrown in there... it was a joke, but it didn't feel mean like most trans jokes. However i hope they don't make too much of it in the movie, given how much of a 'hot topic' we are...
