French and Saunders?

[MinnieQuill]

I was just wondering if:

a) Anyone knows who French and Saunders are? (so many people don't so this is a very valid question)

and

b) Is anyone going to any of their shows in Australia?

I'm seeing one in Brisbane and it's costing me an absolute fortune but I figure that I'll never see them if I don't go so the money is worth it.

a) YES. Who hasn't? (Except for pretty much my entire history class - long story)

b) That sounds so cool! I'd love to see them live. Have fun!

Honestly, hardly anyone I know has ever heard of them. I am always forced to say "You know Edina from Absolutely Fabulous and the Vicar of Dibley? Those two women together in a live sketch show."

Urgh, it gets very annoying. I mean they're FRENCH AND SAUNDERS!! Two of the greatest comediennes on the planet. I think Jennifer Saunders is THE great comedienne actually but that's another debate right there that I've had MANY times. The woman wrote 'Absolutely Fabulous'!!! She's a genius. lol.

I love French and Saunders. When explaining them I always talk about 'Coraline' now. So convenient. "Know those crazy old theatre ladies... me in 40 years? That's French and Saunders!"

Nope, not going to Australia, but if they hit up New York, I'm there!
