Joanna Lumley has said an Absolutely Fabulous reunion is highly unlikely as Jennifer Saunders remains unwilling to take part.
The 74-year-old actress said the decision over whether to revive the comedy series was up to her co-star and Saunders had "decided not to do it".
However, she did give a glimmer of hope to fans as she urged them to "wait and see".
She also said the death of June Whitfield, who played the sarcastic mother, further reduced the chances
Speaking on The Jonathan Ross Show Lumley said: "I don't think so. I think Jennifer's decided not to do it. And also we've lost June Whitfield. We're now all older. We'll wait and see. But it's up to Jennifer, it's not up to any of us."
Absolutely Fabulous originally ran between 1992 and 1996 but was revived from 2001 to 2004.
The cast celebrated its 20th anniversary with a series of specials before reuniting for Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie in 2016.
She also addressed how Patsy Stone, her character in the comedy series, would have coped during lockdown.
She said: "As long as she had half a room filled with cigarettes, the other filled with bolly and vodka, I don't think she would have noticed. The odd man sent through. She's got no interest in the outside world at all."
