French and Saunders

What about US dates guys!?! Come to NYC! (You can crash at my house if you want. I have a futon and one of those air mattresses that a tiger and climb on. I've never tried it out with an actual tiger, but it looked pretty authentic in the commercial...)

COME TO THE US!!!

Saw your opening night show on Friday in Blackpool - yet again thought you were both fantastic. Travelled from Leeds and every mile was worth it. Saw you first time around at Leeds Grand Theatre and was sad that you missed us out this time, still really glad I made the trip to your opening night - could easily come and see you again and again. I'm sorry it's the end of the road for live shows, but look forward to all new ventures! Thank you!!

..."and one date in New York City"...

Pretty pretty please. If you book it, they will come.

Saw the show in Blackpool, Winter Gardens Theatre. It was absolutely fabulous (no pun intended). I was completely star struck when they walked on stage. I'm very sad that this is their final tour.
Praise the comedy goddesses!

As an anniversary treat i took my partner Mandy accross to Blackpool from Leeds for the opening night of the tour, I have to say we were both left
very dissapointed, The laughs were in short supply in fact at times we thought the whole thing was embarrasing. We went there to see a LIVE show displaying the onstage talents of 2 very fine actors/performers, instead we were treated to huge chunks of video!!!...total waste of money in our opinion. On our way out we could hear other people saying just what we were thinking, we were not alone then.

I have heard random snippets that you might play in Belfast at some point, is this true? Please add some sort of date for any location on the island of Ireland! please!

Together with a friend and my brother I went friday 29th feb for the weekend from the Netherlands via Liverpool to Blackpool to go to the show on saturday (we combined it with some beatles related things in Liverpool for my brother).
My friend liked the show a lot but for me and my brother most sketches were not new since we saw almost everything of their work so that was a little disappointing. The funniest part was when a lady in the audience was laughing hysterical and the audience responded to that and Jennifer and Dawn too. I can't repeat what they said because it was funnier than I can tell, although it was not so funny for this hysterical laughing lady...
The show was a bit short and the break for us unnecessary (but maybe required for F&S) and I was a little depressed afterwards because it was probably the last time I saw them live together on stage.
My friend and brother didn't want to wait to see if we could meet F&S afterwards at the theatre (stage door or theatre bar). That was a pity, because I had some very nice meetings in the past with actrice Kristin Scott Thomas at theaters so I hoped for something like that with F&S. But maybe they don't do those things...anyway I will never know...
But I was happy that there was some merchandise for sale and even more surprised that this guy (who sold the merchandise to me) knew many places in the Netherlands (not many english people would know that).
Greetings from the Netherlands,
Ruth

Would love to see you both in London so hope you can get dates and venue.

Huuuuuuuuuge fan but got shunned at thorton services for a picture not happy!!!!!!!!!!!

If you both fancy joing myself and my friends after the party (If your not shattered) then please do. Were doing the big gay night out around Canal Street a stone throw away from the Palace Theatre. My partner and I live in the village so if you wanna pop round for a bottle of champers in are new referbished pad please feel free. Anyway girls, i hope you have a great show and cant wait to see the queens of comedy take the stage. Lots of Love Ben x x x P.S Your new DvD is on order with HVM just awaiting release x x x By the way my number is 07777629689 if you fancy that drink x It will be fun !

P.S I need an extra 2 tickets for the show on Sat. Ticketmaster says your booked out, I dont mind 2 tickets for the Stage Wings, lol. If in anyway you could arrange I would be most pleased. Send a email or Call if you can, Love you both Ben x

I came to see the show last night at the palace and thought it was brilliant. I was a bit apprehensive after having read some of these comments, but I thought it was brilliant. What a way to go! Good luck F&S!

Really enjoyed the show last night. Its a shame its your last tour. For anyone who is going and not been yet make sure you stay right to the end it is hilarious. Excellent!!

Just saw your Manchester show and it was amazing, thank you for a great night : ) x

Aloha! Come to Hawaii! Perform on Oahu at the beautiful Hawaii Theatre! There are a lot of fans here! You can take a vacation! We're a island people just like England!

Mahalo nui loa,

You guys know you have huge fan base here and since no one can afford to fly to the UK right now, I would LOVE for you guys to come here. I have never seen you live, only everyhting you have done on TV and movies. Please concider coming to the US and most importantly ORLANDO, FLORIDA.
Don't make me beg cause i will LOL
Thanks,
Frank

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE come to NYC!!! People WILL come to see you two. :) You ladies have a huge following in the States, so filling a venue like Radio City would be SOOOO EASY. PLEASE consider coming over.

Hey, i saw you at the palace theatre in manchester on March 5th. The show was amazing!! Really enjoyed it. I met you afterwards outside and you were kind enough to let me take my picture with you, couldnt have had a better night! Thankyou for being so lovely.
Kat Leeds xxxxx

I'm really excited as me and my mate Kim are coming to the City Hall Newcastle to see you tonite! I'm not gonna let any of these comments put me off as we've been huge fans of yours for the past 20 years and it's gonna be a privilege to see you perform live one last time!! Dawn we are up in the balcony but there's a huge toblerone in it for you if you come up for a photo lol xx

Hey Dawn & Jennifer,

Saw your Newcastle show last night, and we're still laughing today. We disagree with some of the previous comments about the video - we thought they were great and the perfect fill in between your sketches. We came to see you in the late eighties and you were just as funny last night - worth every penny. Sad to hear you won't be performing live again, but we'll always be huge fans! Thanks for a great night. Jim & Den Taylor

Coming to LA, pretty please? Oh how we love you. You are del-l-l-l-l-icious.

Went to the opening night in Edinburgh at the Edinburgh Playhouse. My stomach is still sore from laughing!!! Especially the Madonna scene and the homage to AB FAB LOL

Even got the programme signed and a pic with Dawn - they seemed so lovely and down to earth

Hope everyone else going to see it enjoys it!!!

I went to see the show in Edinburgh and laughed my cocking ass off!!!!! ha ha They were fantastic, loved the ab fab part and all the old sketches. Comedy legends, gutted that this was the last tour. Long live French and Saunders !!!!

PLEASE come to the states!!! :)

Saw you both on Thursday night at the Newcastle City Hall and you were absolutely fabulous (pardon the pun!). My friend almost did a wee on her seat when Jen informed the judge that "I got worms from dog s##t!!". Personally I loved every second of it and Catherine Zeta Jones Spartacus will never seem the same again! Im so glad we got to see one last time. Long live French and Saunders!!

London London London!! (or at least Fairfield Halls...?!)

Come to Canada!

Seeing you tomorrow night in glasgow, cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw you both in Edinburgh on Saturday night and you were feckin hilarious!! I didn't stop laughing out loud from start to finish, and my sides and head were sore by the time we came out.

I was there in a party of 8 and we all thought it was hysterical. The banter about who was most successful was a right laugh.

I nearly wet my pants at the Madonna sketch and the 2 dirty old men at the end were the icing on the cake (quite literally)!

What a hoot, it's a pity it's the last tour - BRILLIANT!

200 quid return flight from East Midlands Airport to Edinburgh on 14th March 2008.

240 quid for two nights in Hotel in Edinburgh.

57 quid for Taxi to and from Playhouse Theatre.

40 quid for ticket in stalls.

8 quid for Tour Programme.

That French & Saunders Live Experience . . . Priceless!!!

I can't remember the last time I went to see a show and laughed from start to finish like I did last Friday. I left the show aching from laughter. The best money I have ever spent. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Ladys Dawn & Jennifer give your public what we want . . . more French & Saunders.

I have been a massive fan for nearly 20 years and have seen you live a few times. This had to be the best live show yet. I laughed (hard) and had a little tear at the end.
I was at the Newcastle show on the 12th, if i had the money i'd be at every show.
"Thank you for the music" and all the laughs.
Good luck to you both, love ya's x x x

please please please come to london! me and my best friend (hey lynz) absolutely adore you guys and have even started writing skethches! we're at uni and so we havent been able to get to the other shows becasue of work :( please come to lodnon!!!!xxx

please please come to leeds doing so many dates in other areas and just a few in yorkshire,WHY??? saw you in blackpool and you were fantastic!!!! but saw you many years ago (with raw sex) at leeds grand theatre please come back sue

We are really looking forward to the show on the 2nd in Plymouth - though reading the man from Boston's budget made me nervous. If I knew how much a quid was we would probably need to cancel...
Take care until the 2nd. We can't wait!
Trisha & Stephanie St Paul, MN
PS the animal cops sketch is your best I think!

I speak for French and Saunders fans across America...

BRING FRENCH AND SAUNDERS TO NEW YORK!

18th March Glasgow
What a show! You where brilliant. I've waited a long, long time to see you both and it was well worth the wait. To see the Original Ab Fab sketch live was just amazing. And the final sketch had the WHOLE of the venue is hysterics, genius! Thank you Jennifer & Dawn.

I went to your Live show on Glasgow last night and I have to say that I have never been sooooo disapppointed!! Too much video to fill the change of costume gaps, not original enough and just not funny. As previously commented, it was simply embarrassing to watch..slighly embarrassing to think of the money I have spent to take my mum with me for the night!!!
Enjoy your retirement

Glasgow 19th March.
Hi Girls,
Just returned from your show tonight. Even the technical difficulties couldn't ruin it! I took my friend Virginia to your show as a treat for her 55th birthday - so it had to be special. It was!!!! We laughed out loud and loved all the different sketches. The "rivalry" between the big 2 shows was hysterical.
Thank you for coming to Glasgow (and staying for a marvellous second night!) And thank you for making us laugh all through the years!!
Slainte!
Karina Fitzgerald and Virginia Robertson.

I will post another plea for shows in the US- you are both so fantastic. I was lucky enough to see Dawn in A Midsummer's NIght Dream in London years ago- would love to see Jennifer on stage as well. I loved abfab- can't get your other shows here- but thank goodness for home video.
Please come. I live in Chicago- which is a great city, especially in the summer . . . but will travel if I must
Yazoo is coming here in July- make my summer complete- come to america, too!!!

hiii

I saw you guys 6/03 in Manchester!! we drove all the way from brussels to see you and it was defenitely worth the roadtrip!!!!
Even the strike from Seafrance couldn't get us out of the jolly good!! (BIG BASTARDS!!!) :-D

ANNYYYYWAAY we sat front row and I barely escaped from Dawns camera heading for my clevage ;-)

but I really laughed my eye out (dutch saying)!!!

and I even did my famous 'hail to the comedy godess bow' at the end... and I don't do that very often -lol

so thank you for a memorable night !!!

Don't know what show the guy above me went to, but I went to see F&S last night and I was in hysterics all the way through. And so was EVERYBODY sitting around me.

Thank you for the laughter F&S!!

Went to see show last night in Sunderland, absolutely FANTASTIC!!!!!!! Been huge fans since the beginning have waited so long to see live show, brilliant soooooooo funny! our cheeks were achin with laughter, thank you so much for a brilliant night, and autographs, in awe!!! Worth every penny, please come back!! Excellent!!!
Love Tracy & Gillian

Glasgow audiences used to destroy second rate performances at the Glasgow Empire.

You destroyed this one with poor technical support, weak gags and taking the p*** with so much video.

What a disappointment. Where was the standup comedy?

Canada, USA you really want these "pastits" to stay in England.

HI F & S
just back from aberdeen show thought you were great .laugh a minute . so sad to see it finish .
good luck in all you do .
susan and graeme x x x x

Thought you were both absolutely amazing!!!!!! went to the palace theatre in manchester on the 6th march! there werent any posters for sale though but i did manage to craftily steal one off the wall from the foyer! am going to see your show again in cardiff next month and i cant wait! il be the one in the front row holding as much chocolate as i can carry! gutted this is your last tour but fingers crossed you'll change your mind in the future!! good luck in all future projects - im sure they'll all be fantastic! x

oh and as for that comment above by Nicky Souter - he/she obviously doesnt appreciate your work or probably even understand it. theres always one isnt there. x

^ Laura (assuming the anon comment is by you too) you sound like a nutjob. F&S must be scared of that kind of lunatic fan. Not that they'd be reading your message anyway...

Just watched your show in Aberdeen last night and it was probably good but couldn't hear a lot because of my teeth chattering!!!!! Here's why:

We attended the French & Saunders show expecting a comfortable, warm and welcoming environment. This just did not happen. The suitability of the venue for this kind of show was terrible. We endured 3 and a half hours in freezing temperatures with no sign of any type of heating in the building. Draughts from both sides of the arena made spectators extremely cold. We had to keep our jackets and gloves on throughout the show. With teeth chattering it was hard to enjoy the show and in fact we couldn't wait to go to get warm. The only reason we stayed is because it was an Easter treat for our son who is a big fan of French & Saunders. The only warm part of the building was the hot water taps in the ladies toilets. I was disappointed that people were taking photographs throughout the show with no intervention from staff to prevent this. This was annoying to those people sitting behind the picture takers as it obscured ther view. Surely some sort of photo opportunity could have been arranged to prevent this happening? People should be forewarned about the building when booking tickets so they can prepare themselves for the show. For the price of the tickets surely some heating would not have gone amiss? We will certainly think twice about going back to this particular venue, highly regarded or not!

Take your fans into consideration when choosing venues!

Firstly, Pete Smith and Nicky Souter - a prerequisite for the ability to appreciate good comedy is to ACTUALLY HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOUR. You were both obviously a waste of good seats!
The show was very funny indeed - infact, as well as programme and merchandise stalls, a Tena Lady stand would have been in order (now there's a merchandising opening - 'French & Saunders' maximum absorbtion pads).
Good comedy never dies - so, whilst French and Saunders may be quiet for a while, I along with countless others await a 'very loud cocking noise' heralding their return ;-)

I went to see the show in Aberdeen on Friday and thought it was fantastic!! As a previous person has said, it was freezing in the venue but once F&S were on the stage I was laughing too much to care.

I was pleased to see many old favourites - Cassie Broadway was an unexpected gem, and Dot and May were as great as always. Also, Dawn's Catherine Zeta-Jones was fabulous and I thought that Jennifer's Madonna was very clever.

I especially enjoyed the scene with the 'showdown' between the Comedy Goddess in the box and the huge Geraldine. The banter between Dawn and Jennifer was great all evening - I just wish there had been more of them just being themselves.

I was very sad to see the show end and had a tear in my eye at the end. A great send-off to the best female comics ever. x

Hi there. Firstly I wanna say I think that you's are both great (real idols). I went to see your show in Newcastle and thought it was fannnnnnnnnntassssticcccc. My friend had been on a previous occision and managed to get a photograph with you's as you's were leaving, so because we were big fans and new you were coming back for 1 last nite on the sat, we decided to wait to try to get a photograph with you's, so me my cousin and my niece waited outside for a few hours hopeing for a photo, we had been there 1 hour when a man came up to us and told us just to go home because you's were leaving straight after the show, we were just deciding on what to do when you's both come out and in to your cars and began to drive off. I know that you's were proberbly tired after the show but it wouldnt of took that long as we were the only 3 people waiting there, we were quite dissapointed as we new it would be the last chance to see you's, as this was set to be your last tour. We have been fans of both your work since the start, however we left a little happier as we got a wave as you's drove off. sorry to moan, still think you's are great and hope that you's will continue to make us laugh in the future. luv kel x

I know it has been said previously - but you have to come to NYC. I promise to buy two tickets for each night you have a show. I worship the ground you both walk on so please puddle jump and come to NYC. Please...pretty please...pretty pretty please...

I will make yet another plea for French and Saunders fans in the US...PLEASE COME TO NYC!!! Alot of us admire you and would LOVE for you to come on over. I will personally go to all NYC dates that you schedule. XX

Hi!!!
I was treated to tickets to your show for my birthday yesterday and was driven down to Brighton from Bromley to see you! it was the best birthday ever! i can honestly say i have never laughed so much in all my life!! Thank you so much for making my birthday such a fab one!!
Bryony x

I just want to add another plea for you to cross the pond.
A NYC show would be incredible. We get up there all the time to see shows....
Please...!

Drove down to Brighton in pissing rain last night full of excitement and huge expectations. I had been so looking forward to seeing F&S. However, the show was awful and I found myself constantly looking at my watch, counting down the minutes to leave the Brighton Centre. It just seemed no thought had been put into this farewell tour, as if they'd rushed it at the very last minute. It wasn't funny and I just felt sorry for them for ending their joint career like this, and for me, for wasting my evening. London dates? I seriously wouldn't bother. On top of this, half the audience couldn't see the whole stage, let alone the screen at the back of it - too many seats with very little visibility had been sold - a total rip off, really. Anyay, all in all, a very disappointing night. Had I known, I would've rather stayed in and watched 'The Apprentice'. What a shame.

Please, please think about touring further north. When you are appearing in Harrogate in April I am unfortunately away camping with the Scouts (yes - I'm sure there's a joke there somewhere!). North could be anywhere eg Newcastle, Sunderland, Hull, York, Pocklington (we get Midge Ure there so why not French and Saunders who have been the thinking women's mainstay since the '80's - yes - I was there). Hey girls - your farewell tour could last longer than JFK's presidency (another joke?)

Thanks for everything over the years - loved it all - better than marriage - sometimes!!

Saw your show in Brighton and laughed all night. Thought it was a really good mix using video and live. My highlights were Madonna and Dawn's amazing graphic monologue at the bus stop. Well done to you both and congratulations on your work together for the past twenty years.

Me, my mum and sisters seen the Glasgow show on the 18th march, we each had our own fav sketch, and we were not let down! Superb performance! Dawn and Jennifer... what can i say... ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!! Cheers! thanks alot!!!

As much as I would love you to come to AUSTRALIA I know you can't, and I don't blame you, as they tend to snaffle up superstars like yourselves and make them do cameos in either Neighbours or Home and Away, poor Michael Palin is still recovering from that one!

So I will await eagerly for the show to be released on DVD and I will watch it in the honorable, respectful manner it deserves by wrapping my couch in bubblewrap,and donning a character turban.

A Huge Thanks for all the joy your work has given me over the years! And a special thanks for not ever murdering the Australian accent, I swear you two are about the only ones in show biz who can do a proper one!

I have just got home from seeing you in Ipswich, you were just fab, there were times when I just couldn't stop laughing, I went with my husband and best mate and we all thought you were just fantastic!
Lots of love and luck x

The standing ovation from the audience at the Ipswich Regent last night said it all. It was a brilliant and hysterical show. Would pay to see it again, and will do if it goes to London. I don't understand why people are saying that there was too much video?! It was all in context, very funny, and can't have been more than 1/5th of the total time on stage!! It's still F & S! Loved Thank you for the music at the end, though Dawn's voice was obviously feeling the strains of a month on tour!

Hilarious.

going on the 11th of april in wales mellenium centre and i cant wait
i love you both but im a massive & i mean MASSIVE fan of dawn i love you u i would love 2 meet u one day,, soon :)
ur amazin and i love the vicar of dibley ;) and french & saunders
i cant wait to see u both :D

:D:D

Hello Lovely Ladies,
My Aunt and I are making our first trip to the UK in May; the major draw, your show of course! We can't wait to see you in Oxford on the fifth; I'm sure that the experience will be well worth the trip from New York.
As a representative of the U.S., I'd like to thank you for making a mockery of our completely pretentious and shallow society. I love to see your take on American pop-culture, as you have a knack for expressing exactly those thoughts which many of us, on this side of the pond, feel. We have to be able to laugh at ourselves and you make it easy. Your jokes make life in these stressful and uncertain times a bit easier to stomach.
I know that you're not particularly comfortable with "thank you's" (Dawn) but I had to say it.
You Rock!!!!

hi please please please come to london so i can see you both.xx

2 April 2008
Dear Dawn and Jennifer,
Saw your show at the Pavillions-Py last evening with my daughter, what a great evening,(laughed so much- think I've reached the Tena stage!!)
It's good to see home grown talent back in Plymouth and with references to local places and accents.
All the very best to you both for the future, (I can think of worst places to hang out n die!!)

Dear Jennifer & Dawn,
Thanks for so many amazing years of great comedy that has kept me laughing for hours & hours, not to mention years, you really are both incredibly talented women!!
I just wish you'd both come to Australia for a show or two, you could have an awesome holiday too, I'm sure you & your families would all love it.
I'd so love to see you do this show in Australia, is there a way to get you down here soon?
Hope life is as good as you want it to be !
Lots of love & laughter,
Matt - Sydney, Australia

Just seen the show tonight at the Plymouth Pavilions and my cheeks are aching from laughing. The show was fantastic and just proves why French and Saunders are so popular. It was extremely funny and the duo related very well to the audience. It was everything and more than I expected, just really sad that you guys are stopping French and Saunders. Well done and thank you for the brilliant show it was simply absolutely fabulous!

I took my partner to see F&S at Brighton and we both had a terrific time. I did notice that some peoples' view was obstructed but is that really Dawn and Jennifers fault?? I'm not sure where that person was who clock watched all night, but I think if they would have preferred to watch the Apprentice, all I can say is that they should be FIRED! Maybe you should get tickets for another show (I'm off to see them again in Oxford).
Jennifer and Dawn were great, Jennifer as Madonna made me laugh so much and when Dawn searched for chocolate well! We both had a great time, as did those who sat around us, Thankyou for the laughter...I'll be in the queue to by the dvd xxx

Please, please think about touring further west.
(Much further west, i.e. San Francisco, where I now live as an ex-pat).
I saw you live at Sheffield Poly in 1981(ish?)with The Young Ones and you were the funniest live (or recorded) performance I have ever seen. Ever. I almost fell out of my seat laughing. You know you have a big following here (SF).
Now I live in Amurca, but I can still rent the dvds, dammit.
Not many people realise how hard it is to become the character you are playing and make it look natural. It's fuck**g hard! I love Jennifer's "Barbara" character who is moving to Indonesia (I just watched a 2004 dvd), and Dawn's Catherine Zeta Jones. Your acting is brilliant.
I know you'll sell out if you come here! Er, what I mean is, all the tickets would be sold and everyone would love you.

Saw F&S in Sheffield last week. Thought show was well written and clever, making fun of their success. Enjoyed some old favourite sketches, loved the mobility scooters. It was hard to sit through and not join in with the lines at times. I think the others around me would have been glad about that. Bought the 6 DVD set straight after and am loving returning to the beginning. Oh Madonna, why did you never join them!!!!
F&S are an acquired taste in comedy I think, however real fans who appreciate them will enjoy this tour as a farewell to great british comedy.
Thanks ladies and I will look out for you in the future.

Please, please , please come to San Francisco too!! We love, love , love you both so much..

Liz

Shibalvr in Santa Clara

Saw F&S in Nottingham last night and really enjoyed it - the Royal Concert Hall was packed and seemed liked everyone had a good time - I haven't had a good laugh like that in ages.

The Chocolate Hunt was great and Jennifer as Madonna, Dawn as CZJ, all a triumph.
Thanks for a fab night.

just wanted to say goodluck for tonight i cant wait to see u both performing i think i might book to go again in may anyways break a leg as they say !!! :)

Thank you for a wonderful show in Plymouth. We loved seeing you in person. It was also wonderful to be with so many others who appreciate your work as a pair. In the US it is not difficult to find a gay man who knows Absolutely Fabulous or an intellectual who knows the Vicar (The show plays on our educational programming station) but not many know of your work together. We also loved seeing the countryside which we may not have done if you had scheduled dates for London...We left Minnesota in a snowstorm and found spring abloom, complete with little lambs and bunnies on the hillsides, on our journey to Plymouth. Thank you for your work. As a woman who had formerly known British comedy only in the likes of Benny Hill, I don't think it an exageration to declare that you two have redeemed a nation!
Sincerely, Trisha St.Paul MN

I flew up to Nottingham from Palma de Mallorca to see my life -savers, and it was worth every penny and minute spent! These girls are the best, together as French and Saunders, or in separate shows. I hope to see them soon again. If they do a London show, I might actually go again. Thank you ever so much Dawn and Jennifer for beeing there through Ab Fab, Wild West, The Vicar for me when I need it the most. From a Norwegian living in Spain!

OK - you haven't decided to come to the US yet so I guess I am going to you. I may be crazy spending a fortune to see you both but I am soooooo excited. Can't wait to see you in Oxford. I'll be the one with the crazy accent screaming in the balcony.

Just wanted to say haven't laughed so much in a long, long time. Absolutely fabulous show last night in Bournemouth. Thank you so much for all the laughter, what a gift! Only got to come to see you as someone missed out by being in hospital, sad for them but hey I had a great time.
P.S. They have made a full recovery and are coming to the extra show at the BIC in May.

Please come to London??????

saw you in Bournemouth last night...absolutely hilarious. Dawn, sorry i didn't have any chocolate, but please can i have my packet of chewing gum back? ha! Great show, you are both brilliant!!

wow that show last nite was fab i saw it in bournemouth and was not dissappointed i was awe of both of you such stage presence the people sat next to me were literally crying their eyes out laughin it was just fantastic im am glad to have booked tickets to go again may 3rd in bournemouth again the merchandsie was fab and bought one of everything the t shirt looks brilliant
i was dissappointed however because i was one of few that wait for nearly an hour in the cold for an autograph but you drove by and didnt do one but im not givin up yet theres always may goodluck wiv ur other dates look forward to may
jodie xxx :)

People, people, when will you realise when you pay to go to a show, you pay to go to a show. Not to be given a personal one-to-one experience with the show's participants once they've done their job and are attempting to get home to their families.

Genuine entertainers are about the experience they provide ON stage, etc. They didn't sign up to pander to your approval OFF stage every moment of every day. Would you succumb to every photo and autograph request every cocking day of your life? Do you like the idea of having camera phones wedgied in your face as a complete stranger grabs you by the arm? Not.

Besides Dawn and Jen said they'll only stop and sign autographs if I'm there. And I wasn't, see?

Geddoverit.

(D/J: was that OK? If so, please send the signed photos to my home address. That'd be grand, thanks.)

You must come to NYC! I would hate to miss my last opportunity to see the two of you performing live due to a massive body of water standing in my way. That would be a shame.

My partner and I have LOVED watching your show since it first came on in America, and now this year our 9 year old son discovered your comedy and he thinks you're hilarious. We live in Kentucky and would love to see you come here (it's very picturesque), I work for a caterer (we could set you up with some good food), but if Kentucky is too far, we would pack up the kids and drive the 15 hours to see you in New York! Thank You both for the non stop laughs and the presentation of REAL WOMEN on the telly!

Hello,

I came to see you Nottingham show on Friday 4th April 2008, I was in a group of 5 of which my sister who was celebreating her 30th, and my aunty had never stepped foot in a theatre before so it was quite a momentus occasion for us all... IT WAS FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you so much we all had an absolute hoot, really think there should be warnign printed on the tickets to advise to wear 'Tenar lady'!!!!!!!! I had no idea that I let out an embarressing squeak when I laugh out loud!!!!
IGNORE THESE BORES WITH NO SENSE OF HUMOUR THAT HAVE SLATED YOU ON HERE, EVERYONE NEAR US SEEMED TO ENJOY IT, CAN PEOPLE NOT SEE THAT THE SCREEN BITS WERE WHEN YOU GOT CHANGED?!?!? MAYBE YOU COULD CHANGE THE SHOW TO A PART MAGIC ACT WHERE YOU GET CHANGED IN A SPLIT SECOND IN FRONT OF THE AUDIENCE!!!!!!!
Love your work and just think it's a shame that the first time I see you is your last tour.
Best Regards xxxxxxxxxx

seen u live for the first time ever,for a birthday present,im always acting u guys out to my mates from the no leg bones scetch to the geography school trip....and where walking in the air...lol knee capped myself with the no leg bones time and time again,best birthday present ever,u are both a massive part of my life and always has been,the only dissapoinment,was knowing i would never see u live again,god bless u both.....xxxx

i love you two in everything that you do... and that rhymes. yeah!

i live in the forgotten city of omaha, nebraska in the states, so i'd never expect you to actually come here, but you should definitely have a show or two over here... new york, l.a, or even chicago. that would rock.

will be watching for more of both of you in the future.

I absolutely love jennifer and Dawn. If there are 2 funnier woman than these two id like to know!!

As soon as i found out tickets were on sale for there still alive tour, i got two (for me and my friend) for Edinburgh Playhouse on 14th March. we've both been MASSIVE french and saunders fans for years and couldnt believe we had the oppertunity to see them live for what is regretably there last tour.

I was so excited when we arrived and could hardly believe it when they both walked out on stage! i was clapping so hard my hands were raw by the end of the show, but i didnt care.

I laughed constantly throughout (along with the whole audience) and wished that it could have went on all night. i couldnt believe they were right there in front of me on the stage, doing what they do best, making me cry with laughter.

We waited outside the Playhouse hoping we mite see them as they left but no such luck. even though i didnt get to meet them it was still the best night of my life!

You girls rock. and even though ur not going to be doing anymore french and saunders, i'm sure i'l love the work u do seperately just as much. and there's always jam and jerusalem still, which also rocks!!

xx

Laughed from start to finish, you both had Cardiff roaring with delight, especially with the appearance of 'Zeta Jones', lucky for me I was seated near the rear of the audience and therefore my chocolates remained safe!
Long live F&S!

PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE COME TO THE U.S. WE LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!

Made the trip from London to Cardiff on Saturday night and WOW what a show... It was just amazing....

I laughed from start to finish... The Ab Fab sketch was a personal highlight but to be honest it was all awsome!

Please please please come to London, I so want to see the show again

Thanks Dawn and Jen - you guys are the best!

Lisa

hi

cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Dawn and Jennifer

I am planning to come along to your performance on the 5th May at Oxford New Theatre. I have seen you perform twice 'live' before at Oxford, the first time we had front row seats and you, Dawn came and sat next to my friend Sara. I also threw a bag on Choc Eclair toffees on stage. The second time I came to see you I threw Crunchie bars on stage and met you back stage for a signed photo. Hopefully my friend Joanne and I will meet you again backstage and purchase any merchandise on sale, you will be greatly missed for your 'live' performances.

See you on the 5th May.

Michele Gawler

PLEASE release a DVD of the tour!!! You guys are the best!!! Seriously! You are awesome! I have all your DVDs and watch them all the time. :-)

Thank you for everything - you always make me laugh when I'm down.

Stu :-)

Fantastic show in Southampton, I loved it so much last night I bought 2 more standing tickets for tonight and took my daughter. You were both fantastic, take no notice of the miserable gits who obviously have no sense of humour (there were a couple like that next to me last night. Why do they bother going!!!!!!!!

The whole show was brilliant, the sketches, videos and costumes were all so well done. I have watched all your stuff for the past 20 years and will watch for the next 20 years - you will never give up because this is what you do. Kelly, my daughter is now a firm follower -Ab Fab and Vicar of Dibley have been her favourites as well as Shrek - fairy godmother!!!!!!! Jen.

We love you and please dont give up the day job. Ruth.

please will you bring out a dvd of your live tour it woulb be gr8 to see this awe inspiring show again and again and it will go with all the other great merchandise of the tour i boughtone of everything its was so fab anyways take care girls see ya may 3rd jodie x

Went to see the show in Liverpool last night (17th). Absolutely fantastic. I haven't laughed so much in a long time. The Madonna sketch was my favourite. I'm a man and I nearly needed a tena lady laughing so much at it. It was great to see the Ab Fab sketch and the stand off at the end between two comedy legends was amazing.

Please let me see this released on DVD.

Long live French and Saunders!!!

(I will miss you two a lot! Farewell and good luck with your futures!)

xxxx

What a fantastic show!!! Laughed from start to finish at the performance in Llandudno. Every sketch was amazing, espcially Absolutely Fabulous v Vicar of Dibley.

All the best to you two in the future,

Best wishes,

Lucy xxx

Hi ladies, we had a wonderful time last night at the show in Llandudno. We've never seen the theatre so packed and you were both brilliant. We thought the new material on screen really added to the show. What really made the night unforgettable for us was meeting you both after the show, we weren't rushed through and you both took the time to sign and have photos.

Thanks a million.

Martin & Martyn xx

Please come to London - I can't make any of these dates outside. What, do you expect me to go to Aber-bloody-deen, darling?! (I would if I could get the time off). I didn't have the cash to buy anything from the gift shop the last time I saw you live(Hammersmith Apollo)and have always regretted not being able to buy Jennifer's comedy turban... Gimme a chance to make it right!! xxx

Hiya,

Was at your show last night in the Birmingham Hippodrome and absolutely loved it!!!!!!
Dawn I hope you enjoy the large dairy milk bar u had off me! :)
I am so glad I got to see you both live as I have been a fan since i was young.
I loved the Madonna sketch and the two old fat blokes at the end, giving the audience a good flash!!! The Ab Fab sketch was brill too!!
Please bring out the still alive tour on DVD!!!

Love your work and really admire the both of you, i just wish I had gone to see you live earlier!

You are both fantastic!!

xxxxxxxxxxxx

Came to see you at Birmingham last night. HUGE fans of you both as a team and individually on your own projects and I have never laughed so much. The Madonna sketch, your contraceptive talks and the large Vicar were excellent!!! Thanks so much for your writing over the years, very sad that it's your last tour ;-(( but i have so many happy memories (from your basket...when you find it!)
With love
Becki x

Oh my god! The most hilarious thing I have ever witnessed! Went to see the show on Tuesday in Birmingham and it was so unbelievable that I booked to go again last night!
I knew it would be fantastic but it exceeded all my expectations, and they were pretty high!
After reading some of the comments about the clips I have to say that these just added to the show and were as brillantly received by the audience as the live sketches.
I wish this wasnt the last live show but look forward to the new projects!
I am in no doubt they will be as fab as everything else!
Thanks for the fab shows and for forever making me laugh until it hurts!!

Montreal. Montreal. Montreal. Boo hoo hoo. Please come to Montreal. There is a huge fan base here. Or even Toronto for that matter. Montreal. Montreal. Montreal.

Hello,

Can i just say that i went to see your show in Brighton in March and it was the best show ive seen for ages- you were both soo funny and had me and my mate laughing for days after! I thought that the Madonna gag was fantastic as was the Vicar of Dibley. You were just as good and as funny as i had hoped that you would be, and you made my 21st Birthday! I have nothing bad to say of your show at all... much love, keep up the good work! x

Came all the way from "Americar" land of the really huge everything just to see French and Saunders Saturday in Birmingham. Words cannot express our utter joy. When we got to customs we were asked reason for visit and I said "to see French and Saunders" to which the reply was "I love them but no really what is the reason?" We had the time of our lives and just wanted to say thanks for sharing your talents with us all these years. Looking forward to another well penned series of Jam and Jerusalem. God Bless you both.Cheers!

Saw your show last night and loved every minute of it! Good luck with your future projects!

Saw you last night in Bristol .............you were both hilarious as usual, great show and superb 'buggy driving'.

saw the show in bristol last night brilliant.You were both so nice signing autographs after the show not rushing anyone.
30/04/08.

i'll never forget that night!!
love you dawn and jennifer!!
samantha baily

I went to see your show in Birmingham on April 24th and would like to say it was the best night of my life! Me and my mum went and we both enjoyed it so much! I only wish id found out about you sooner, I've only really known about the French and Saunders sketch show for about two months, but I have become a massive fan! Im 15 and am now trying to introduce it to all my friends! (: I can't say anything negative about the whole show apart from I didint want it to end (: I'd seen some of the sketches before but still found them hillarious. I loved the boarding school sketch and the soctor sketch. But my favourite was when Jennifer was in the box and Dawn bought out the massive Geraldine Granger.
I really wanted to stay at the end to see if you came out but we had to leave because I had school in the morning.. Four Hours away :P! so i was pretty Gutted about that!

The show was Brilliant and i think your Both ACE!

Thanks for a brilliant night !

XxX

Loved The show ! Really want to see it again (: !

Please Come To London :D!

Much Love

xx

Please come to the US! At least do some major cities: you have so many fans over here. Consider: New York, Atlanta (near me), Chicago, Los Angeles, and a few other major cities at minimum. Thanks!!

Hello French and Saunders !
We came all the way from Paris to attend your show and it was so GREAT ! Thank you for being so funny. We probably got 50 % of the jokes but still it was so funny. Maybe I will be English in a next life and will be able to understand more of your jokes !
Merci and a special "hi" to that HUGE Vicar of Dibley...
Elisabeth, Paris

By the way I only have one reproach: my face muscles were hurting so much from laughing ! Honestly, it hurts !!! You should have special medicine to distribute at the end of the show for all those tired facial muscles ! xxx

Hello Ladies!

I would like to say that I am a huge fan and would love for you to come to New York. Please, please, PLEASE come on over. There are many fans stateside that would love to see your final F&S show. Please consider coming to New York.

Hi french and saunders. Went to see you last night at Oxford and thought you were FANTASTIC!!!! Loved every minute of it well done and thank you!!
Also saw you outside the stage door. Jennifer was swammped lol and as she opened the car window I got pushed and nearly fell in sorry about that!
Love the willies guys lol

Thank you again if your doing London definately getting tickets for that!!!!!

Hi Jen and Dawn

Im a massive fan and came to see you both in Edinburgh on 14th of March. we waited to see if we could get autographes for nearly 2 hours but we obviously missed you =(

Had the best night ever and i so badly want to see you both again.

Please do some London Dates, or even better, come back to Scotland!! =D

keep being funny and writing comedy gold

Your biggest fan x Vicki x

Hey French and Saunders! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! Back in the US from seeing your last show in Oxford and had such a GREAT time. Laughed my happy ass off! You are both so brilliant, please consider a US date. We are a third world country comedy wise. It would be a mission trip of sorts. Charity work.
Also wanted to thank you for your graciousness before the show. Had the unbelievable opportunity to meet you before the show and you were so nice. Didn't actually think I'd see you in person and I hope you didn't feel ambushed. But thanks again, it was an absolute thrill for me. -Still laughing, Mary C.

Hello! My husband and I made a special trip over to the U.K. from the U.S. just to see the show. We caught the show in Bristol and could not have been more entertained! The night was full of belly laughs all around and was well worth the trip across the pond! The show exceeded our expectations. Thank you for doing what you do!

I love u dawn french and jennifer saudners, My favorite comedians, Such ashame your finished french and saunder, EVEN more upseting I couldnt make it to the live show.
I tried searching the net for one of your fan mail adresses so i could mail you my french and saunders script, my dream is to be a comedy sketch writer, (if yu'd like to read it, email me lazza_100@hotmail.com) Never know it might work.. If your nice comedians :)

i wish i saw the show:(

even though im young,

Thankyou to both of you for making me laugh.

By the way, its my birthday on the 29th of may, and a great birthday present would be for you to email me to ask to read my script :D

Thankyou

Laurence Page

Would love to know if there were dates for London! It's been my life goal to see Jennifer Saunders and Dawn French preforming live!
You've helped me through my leaving cert with a smile on my face!

You didn't come to Texas so I brought Texas to you. Great show in Birmingham. Thanks for the laughs, you two are a hot mess. Thanks for the pic Jen. Baby girl you turned out so lovely in that photo! Luvin' you in Cowtown.

BTW Jen, in case you "surf" by this site give me a holler at www.myspace.com/filmjoyce

I used our pic as my profile pic. Don't worry, it's a great pic of you. I wouldn't put the pic on blast like that if it wasn't. I told you I came from Dallas to see you, but actually, I'm from Fort Worth. (I guess I was in Dallas at the D/FW airport when I left Texas and that's where I said I came from, lol). Put the pic on this message board too. I have no shame;)

Fort Worth is more "Texas" then Dallas anyway. Only relation to that show is JR Ewing, Larry Hagman is a distant cousin from Weathorford, lol.

Still hoping for some US tour dates...

Hello :]
I went to see your show and thought it was AMAZING! Cant believe how much i laughed in two hours :] I bought a t-shirt at the end hoping for a signature but we had to go so i didnt get a chance to meet you. Oh the book/programme thing was good ;]
I wish it wasnt the end of French and Saunders because I only really found out about the double act a few months ago ! I only knew about it because my mums such a big fan!
But id like you to know how much you have inspired me. I would really love to be able to do what you do. I had a go at doing some sketches and have written a few but they have all turned out abit ... well crappy! So then i thought about standup because i think i make people laugh more when telling stories than anything else [or maybe they just pitty me so laugh along anyway!] but havnt really had the time because of all my stupid test revision !
Quite a big comment so you might have fallen asleep by this time, but if you ever have time you might be able to e-mail me and maybe give some advice on how I could try and get into Comedy,
My e-mail is: hannah4567@hotmail.co.uk

Thankyo for a great DVD box set :D and good luck in the future !

I hope you email me asking to read my script, I didnt write it for no reason, i really would like to be a comedy writer when im older.
:D

From laurence page:)

Please have some London dates!!!!!

Will be in the uk from the 1st of july on holiday
if you guys are touring at all there please would love to know. I live in australia and would make my holiday if i could see one of your shows
Thanks Girls

Going To Get Tickets For London !

Was A Brilliant Show And Cant Wait To See It Again !

:]

Please come to Australia!! We have the best senses of humour - collective and individual... honest we do. Most of us. Well, I do. So you're welcome to come to my house or perhaps just meet at a public place if that's a little creepy and i'd happily give you at least a hearty lunch and warm handshakes and oodles of respect! Now that's an offer too good to refuse...

ALSO it makes far more economic sense for you to come over here quite frankly. Cos you have everything to gain and you can split the costs between the two of you whereas no one is going to pay for me to come over there. Unless of course you're offering in which case count me in.

You ladies are inspirations - good on you.

hi im maddy im 13 i luv your work, ive been inspired by you both ever since i can remember. you are both great and i am proud to call you my role models my mum loved you aswell, she promised me she would take me to see one of your shows but sadly she died before she could i really want to see your show but there proberbly sold out,luv u both maddy scott
xxxxxxxxx

25TH OCTOBER IM SEEING FRENCH AND SAUNDERS STILL ALIVE!

Please come to New York. There are so many dedicated fans here in the States. PLEASE consider it. We love French & Saunders!!!!

WHY CANT YOU COME TO AMERI-KER!!!! LOL.... WAY MORE FANS HERE IN CHICAGO AREA...WE LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!I WOULD PAY ANYTHING TO SEE YOU LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!

just wanna say that even though i never saw the tours because im to young, that im still so saddened by the fact that you to comedy geniuses
will no longer be a duo as such, but i still think you will both do very well alone as you are both seperatly talented

your still so funny!!!!

Obviously begging is not working, but absolutely love you. Oddest thing is you are quite the topic at my church, my pastor loves the DIbley series so it made breaking the ice at church so easy! You'd pack the house here!

GLASGOW SHOW WAS AMAZING!!!

saw the live tour in bristol is it going to be released on dvd?

well we bought tickets early in the summer for October in London... and now we get an email from the place we bought the tickets saying tickets are on sale at 1/3rd the price!?

what gives with that? do the keen fans get penalised by paying three times as much or get a refund?

Went to see your show last night at the Theatre Royal. It was fantastic, hilarious, superb! I could go on. Please let it not be a farewell. The joy and laughter you both give, is priceless. Thanks for a great night.

Went to London from Massachusetts and was so lucky to see the show Friday night--they were AMAZING! Got to meet them both afterwards, too. An absolute dream come true. Has to be the highlight of my life! I do hope they get back together at some point. Fair enough to take a break, but they just can't leave us bereft like this :-( Separately, they are brilliant, wonderful, talented, of course; together, they are on another plane entirely.

Love, love, LOVE them!

Seeing you on Saturday, afternoon performance - I am so so so so excited!!! I am really hoping I could get your autographs as it would make my day even more perfect. Can't wait!

I watched the show last night in London and I just am disappointed, granted: some bits of it were funny, but most was a bore, the break was unnecessary and by normal standards the show was rather short, though by the end of it, I was so bored and disappointed that I just wanted to get out... honestly we deserved better from you and you let us down

Cant wait to see you both tonight!!

Hey, been to the show last night and after all these years as a dutch fan i was finally rewarded!!!! it was great!!! i really enjoyed it, a shame i had to wait till the farewell tour to finally see you guys.... but at least i did.... and i am a happy camper!!!! now the task will be to get it all on dvd....

karly xx

Hi Guys,

Please come to Australia it will be an absolute SELL OUT!!!

Love your work

Cheers
Paul

Saw you last night, what can I say...it was absolutely Fabulous! I haven't laughed so much for so long and its a sad time for comedy that we will no longer see "French & Saunders".

P.s. Dawn...did you eat the chocolates from the audience?!!!

Just got back from seeing you guys... it was AMAZING! got a little choked at the end (sad, i know!) great night! what an act!

The show was amazing!! I didnt think it could be better than i expected but it was far better. I wish i could see it again. I could not stop laughing. The "small" Geraldine was fantastic!!

Amazing! Thank you.

Sue

YAY! Not only did I get to see the show live, and have my signed program here which I can't stop leafing through, remembering each hilarious bit, I just found that the DVD of the live show is coming out this month! Those of us in the U.S. (or otherwise outside the U.K.), get your region-free players ready...

http://www.amazon.co.uk/French-Saunders-Still-Alive/dp/B001DXBUDY/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1225649586&sr=1-12

I was SOOO hoping they'd put this on DVD. Priceless.

You have been making 3 generations of my family laugh so it seemed only right that we should all go and see you when you came to Ipswich earlier this year! My mum, My 12 yr old daughter and I thought you were fantastic. I grew up with F & S and Girls on Top, when anyone asks us 'how big is it' we always say 'you say how many hands is it please'. Sad but true.

Hi guys,
Have just tried to buy some tickets to see the show in Sydney, Australia and am really disappointed as am a HUGE fan.
Showbiz won't commit to a seat number despite wanting nearly $400 for 2 tickets, while Ticketmaster wants people to sign up for a Mastercard credit card just to get a chance to buy a ticket! In these credit-strapped times that is not a good message...
Anyway Dawn - just read your book and pointed out to my husband that you were almost next-door neighbours in Cyprus during the war!
wish you all the best for the tour - would have loved to see you.
cheers
Erica

Hey Jennifer / Dawn,
So very excited you guys are touring Australia for the first time ever & I have second row tickets!!! Thanks for making so many of your long term fans so incredibly happy, we really appreciate you finally deciding to tour down under. I'm sure you'll have the best time ever, now if I could only meet you as well, wow, would make my year!!!
Lots of love,
Matt

bought tickets to one of the sydney shows. it was horribly expensive and the show was so disappointing. Alot of video footage interspersed with some very lack lustre sketches. laughs were in short supply. funniest skit of the evening was the encore. waste of money and time. so sad.
