Based on the season 5 finale, we know that fellow crime podcaster Cinda Canning (Tina Fey) was attacked after returning to the US to hide a woman accused of a royal murder.<\/p>\n

How this links to season 6 we’re yet to know, but an iconic comedy connection is already sitting right under our noses\u2026 and the series would be silly not to utilize it.<\/p>\n

Opinion: Absolutely Fabulous stars joining Only Murders in the Building season 6 is exactly the comedy-camp the show needs<\/p>\n

As soon as I heard that Jennifer Saunders was joining the Only Murders in the Building cast, I knew that the creative team had made their best decision yet. If you’ve seen her in comedy shows like Amandaland <\/a>and French & Saunders, you’ll know how much of a legendary character actress she is.<\/p>\n

Nowhere was this more apparent than in her unhinged sitcom creation Absolutely Fabulous, where she plays deluded fashionista Eddie. Her assistant Bubble (played by Jane Horrocks) was equally oblivious to everything in the entirely opposite way, making the pair a chaotically beautiful chalk and cheese double act.<\/p>\n

Luckily for us, Horrocks also joins the cast of Only Murders in the Building season 6, meaning we could have a seriously ingenious comedy reunion on our hands. It’s currently unclear if the two guest stars will be at all connected, but not doing so would be a huge missed opportunity.<\/p>\n

Even if it doesn’t happen, we won’t be short of comedy gold. Bad Sisters’ Sharon Horgan is easily one of the best comedic talents to come out of Ireland or the UK in recent years, while thespian actor Sir Derek Jacobi can deliver big laughs with a completely straight face.<\/p>\n

To top it all, we’ve got a literal Spice Girl in the mix\u2026 and I’ve only ever seen Geri act once. What more could we possibly ask for?<\/p>\n
