This is the real authentic Jamaican play that we used to entertain ourselves from back in the 80s living in Jamaica and at the same time we had visitors from overseas who understood few or some of our dilect language and those who were living in the rich areas uptown Jamaica, we had a hood laugh those time and even today in the millennium! Now migration have taken place to England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 I'm still watching and enjoying myself watching them.

That lady Annmarie Fuller is a very good actress. She used to appear in a radio drama series in Jamaica back in the 1980's. She was also prominent in the "Oliver at Large" series. I think she is best actress coming out of Jamaica. The roles she plays are believable. She unfortunately no longer in acting as she is now in church.
