September 20, 2017

Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders are set for a holiday special 30th anniversary episode of their award-winning sketch show "French and Saunders".

BBC One will air the BBC Studios Comedy production which marks the first time in 10 years that the talents behind "The Vicar of Dibley" and "Absolutely Fabulous" will reunite on screen.

Saunders says, “We have almost deliberately stayed alive this long just to force the British Broadcorping Castration to put us on television one last time.”

French adds, “We’ve got our lucky pants on and we’re ready to get funny.”

Jon Plowman will exec produce the show that will be a mix of greatest hits and new material.
