  • The finale from 2005, which has Saffron revealing that she is the true owner of the house and kicks her evil mother and Patsy out on their asses after Edina strikes Saffron's daughter. The look on Edina's face as she realizes that she's completely fucked due to her impulsive action is a great final moment for the series.
    • Not to mention Saffy physically throwing Patsy out of the house.
  • Edina deserves the award for World's Most Neglectful Parent, but when she learns that the professor trying to con her daughter out of her virginity is married with kids, Eddy doesn't even miss a beat before giving him one hell of a punch. This is the same Eddy who has begged Saffron to get laid in the past. Even Evil Has Standards.
  • Edina bonding with Saffron on the trip to Paris. Saffron gives in and tells her mother to do what she would normally do with Patsy. She's astonished that Saffy can speak French, who replies essentially, "Er, what did you think would happen when you sent me off to learn French?!" Edina even convinces Saffy to bare her breasts at the top of the Eiffel Tower (and through some hilarious circumstances appears bare-breasted in a top magazine. Edina approves.)
  • How Edina and what's left of her PR company solve the problem of having a successful performance with Jeanne Durand in "Job". Not only is it pleasantly surprising that they actually solved one of their insane professional disasters without a disaster, but the solution itself is a last-minute burst of brilliance - they have Bubble secretly dub over Jeanne as she performs and it works. It makes you wonder which of the morons running finally realized Bubble has some incredible vocal capacities and came up with it.
  • Saffron's school friend Emma Bunton (from the Spice Girls no less) taking no crap from Eddie or Patsy and forces them to help clean the house before she arrives back from a humanitarian mission in Africa.
    Emma: If you think... I'm gonna take that kind of shit... off a sweaty overeater... the colour of an old man's scrotum! Then you have got another thing coming!
