Sketch comics Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders are known as the duo French and Saunders, who first hit the BBC airwaves in 1987. The film 300 Hundred Years of French and Saunders (Britbox, 2017) is a mix of old clips from the original show and some created specifically for this reunion of sorts. This duo is totally zany, totally English and for some reason totally funny. Right now the world needs this kind of frivolity. Much of the performance is funny, but it is difficult to say why. Please watch and have fun along with Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders.
