Wood has written and starred in sketches, plays, films and sitcoms, and her live comedy act is interspersed with her own compositions, which she accompanies on piano. Wood also composed and performed the theme music for her award winning BBC sitcom ''Dinnerladies''.〔 〕 Much of her humour is grounded in everyday life, and includes references to popular British media and brand names of quintessentially British products. She is noted for her skills in observing culture, and in satirising social classes.〔〔 〕 She started her career in 1974 by winning the ATV talent show ''New Faces''. It wasn't until the 1980s that she began to establish herself as a comedy star, with the award-winning television series ''Victoria Wood As Seen on TV'' and became one of Britain's most popular stand-up comics.〔 In 1998, she wrote and starred in the (again, award-winning) sitcom ''Dinnerladies''. In 2006, she won two BAFTA awards for her one-off drama for ITV1, ''Housewife, 49''.〔〔 Wood frequently works with long-term collaborators Julie Walters, Duncan Preston and Celia Imrie.〔 ==Early years== Wood is the youngest daughter of Stanley Wood and Nellie Mape. She has three siblings: a brother, Chris, and two sisters, Penny and Rosalind. Wood was educated at Bury Grammar School for Girls and the University of Birmingham, where she studied drama. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Victoria Wood」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
