Dawn French does Sonia!

[GainsboroughClaire]

Hilarious!



[Yoofaloof]

Emmm...

[Sewcoolwash]

are you worth the money you earn?

"emmmm liverpool hehe"

LOL

[silentbob82]

Yes! I've not seen this sketch in nearly 20 years! Me and my sister still talk to each other like this sometimes lol

[asa1973100]

Just what she wos like .. To funny !!

[Lyco499499]

Does anyone have the Star Search sketch where Jennifer burts into a random song along the line of "Me, me, me, me and me"?! Always got me that one.

[Lyco499499]

@Lyco499499 Nevermind, found it, it's of Wendy from Transvision Vamp. "I think I like drink anything so long as it's like brilliant" pure awesome.

[WolfieMcMuffin]

That sounds like a good song - "I'm gonna close my eyes and count to ten...." XD

[scalboykyle]

I love being from Liverpool lol

[MyAndrew2009]

YEAH VERY FUNNY HOPE SONIA IS NOT LIKE THAT IN REAL LIFE !

[brightonking69]

I love how Sonia was offended by this parody, (she came round eventually tho) LOL !

[Ulalafanboy]

Funny but I don't get her answers. Was Sonia exactly like this? I just remember her from her "Can Stop Me ..." video.

[MrSinghaha]

@Ulalafanboy Sonia is a bubbly Liverpudlian - obviously this parody has taken it to extremes, but she was always lively & fun!

[Mavrakakis]

I'm related to Sonia... eeerrrmmm....

[apmmac]

LOLZ ITS SO FUNNY

[summertimeloveful]

whats your favorite drink erm the mersey lol

[MrTonyInchpractice]

MISLEADING TITLE! (thankfully)

[SandrineSoprano]

Great great actress

[jpom72]

I like this song a lot. It's a shame Sonia never sang this song truly

[Suedeheadlover]

Dawn's little "Hello" at the start is just classic to say the least.

[Suedeheadlover]

Best part: from 0:06 to the end.

[tadge72]

@TheMscrp no!!! i loved star test and this is great!

[fitzmauritz]

THIS IS THE UKTIMATE FRENCH AND SAUNDERS SKETCH LOL

[mischief13]

I really like the song lol I wish it was real lmfao

[TheRealQuetzy]

what care do you drive? .... ummmm, brookside! lol

[charliefarley1000]

The song was made up for the sketch. It doesn't exist. I think it was meant to resemble 'you'll never stop me from from loving you' by sonya.

[ohnoitisnathan16]

@charliefarley1000 I'm pretty sure the song/video is meant to parody Sonia's performance of 'Listen To Your Heart' on Top of the Pops.

[MrSinghaha]

@ohnoitisnathan16 Yeah it does sound like they based it on "Listen to your Heart" - hilarious parody!!!

[MrSinghaha]

@charliefarley1000 It sounds more like the chorus of "Listen To Your Heart" - you can actually sing this tune right over the top of it & it fits!

[cherylboland]

I wish Dawn was Sonia she's dead cute.

[sidthesquid74]

What's your favourite drink?

THE MERSEY - MINT :D

[krazy4luvingu]

I almost wish that the song Dawn was singing was a real one. It's super catchy! :P

[PaulMichaels78]

Brookside HA HA HA HA

[Gingersnaptastic]

Brilliant! The Bros one is fab as well. I remember them doing Wendy James on Star Test as well, as a right moody cow! Can't find it on Youtube though...

[labelfree904]

i can't understand a word she's saying. Catchy song though

[louis1phoenix2]

lmfao i love dawn french she does it so well

[Dreadblonde]

I love Dawn

[FuckJesusFuck]

Dawn French is SO. FUCKING. CUTE. here

[sussexking]

the merseeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyy.......­... heheheheheheheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[cantforgetyou]

Funny.

[SuperClaire1981]

It is so funny, how Dawn French plays bubbly Sonia from Liverpool, Great!!!!

[lozfryer87]

brookeside, hahahahahahahahaa

[Paadzer]

eeeeeeeeeeeeerm

[KiittyCupcake]

eh....

[houtakiboy]

ROFL. Absolutely excellent.

[wizzwamf]

eeeerrrrmmmm great, errm the mersey eeeeeeeeh,

great snippet , love dawn being daffy ,and doing aah soniaaaa great

[J3NiiC]

she reminds me LOADS of Julia Sawahla in Pride and Prejudice

[JannyPanny59]

Simon Brint is a genius.

He pops up now and again in all the series as 'father' to 'son' Rowland Rivron.

That was the joke.

But our Simon was very clever.

[jiggy12able]

Brillant!!

[Mosschopslikesmoss]

Whats your favourite drink?....er...the Mersey...lol!!!!

[Forestamtul]

is there a Mersey spring water yet?

[disremembrance]

Lol! I don't know, but if not... there should be!!! :-)

[10of9]

I was just watching Sonia's TOTP performance on "You'll Never Stop Me Loving You" - and this sketch captures the energy of Sonia "Live" on stage so well. Masterfully done, and I (sadly) would LOVE to have a full version of "I'm going to close my eyes & count to 10". This just makes me laugh SOOO hard!

[PeggyCHEWtube]

what is that song? sonia didnt sing it did she? :S lmao

[cantforgetyousonia]

I just loved it when F&S did a Bananarama spoof as, as everyone will know, Lananenenoonoo. Well at least I think that's how you spell it!!!!

[JannyPanny59]

What's the greatest surprise you've ever had? Erm, No!!

This did Sonia in and she never recovered until Paul O'Grady 'adopted' her as his/her daughter (in the guise of Lily Savage).

But Sonia was a factor of SAW and Dawn did her down and that's why we admire these satirists so much!

Shame they gave up.

[GRAHAM2109]

The Bros one was the best

[bundyanna]

where is it??

[evoloosh1]

I agreed with an earlier comment, not the one below. shealways clearly has no taste.

[shealways]

jokes on dawn now...she weighs 5 tomme

[mockybokka1]

you just put the joke on you

as you cant spell

retard

[Rug13y]

I actually like the SAW music satire track in this, anyone know much about it? It does even sound like a SAW production!

[Licorece]

LOL!!!!!!!

[dougiewhite778]

that was top

[thirtymphs]

"What's your favorite drink?"

"Yeh...em...no...em...the Mersey!" *giggle*

[AnsellsBrewery]

Dawn, if you point one finger three will point back at you.

[Rug13y]

Superb!

[debsdelightwow]

really funny - obviously a twin - separated at birth, no doubt !!!!

[sansomdela]

The S/A/W parody is spot on! "I'm gonna cross my heart and count to ten...." lol!!

[Rug13y]

Anywhere to get it?

[NEELAELISABET]

@sansomdela

Where do I find the original to that song "Im gonna close my eyes and count to ten (?)"

[kidderguy]

"What car do you drive?" "mmmmmmmmmm Brookside",lol

[RetroRuler1972]

HAHAHAHA...uncanny

[haych83]

Loving the dance moves!

God, that's so funny - love it!

[freddygotme]

Lol!

[IrishEyes1989]

LMFAO Dawnie sounds like a Teletubby in this sketch!! :D Hilarious!

[musicorganman]

hehe... that is fab! I can't stop laughing! What a genius!

[jbgiant2003]

yaaa! really looks like Sonia!

[emilyanne1979]

[ivanofna]

[fandsfan]

lol legends

[jameshighton97]

series 3 episode 1 ive got it on the video of series 3

[fancypantsuk]

such a good copy of a sonia song.

so funny.

[c6482]

Kingmcd: "that song" is a spoof of Sonia's Top 10 hit, "Listen To Your Heart". It is here on Youtube. It is actually a very cool track!

[JackWilkins]

I LOVE,LOVE,LOVE this!!! Thankyou so,so much for posting this up!!! (Sorry for shouting)

[mrsbeauchampspa]

If you watch the real Sonia's video's...this is so uncanny it's scary...hahahaha love it

[jazika1]

well funny !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[nexypointy]

oh gawd i love Dawn French. She's gotta be on my top comedian list ever.

[SugarRock]

Deffo!

[evoloosh1]

AGREED!

[TomKay]

This is hilarious, but does anyone have any real Star Test? I remember the show, it was equally bizzarre...

[Summerskill]

I remember the real Star Test although I was about 8 or 9 or so when it was on, like when this episode aired in 1990 with Dawn's Sonia spoof in it.

[Forestamtul]

Dawn is soooo funny isnt she as Sonia

[Milo1965]

What's your favourite drink - "The Mersey"

Still pissing myself laughing!

[LaGianna]

I don't even know Sonia and still nearly wetmy pants hehe!!

[nortofacto]

Just look for one of Sonia's videos or TV appearances on here - it's uncanny!

[KoshoPollo]

HILARIOUS!

..her laughter infects to me, i like her xddddd

hahahhaha.. so funny

[PINKKELLYLOURAN]

Absoulutley Hilarious the old Fench and Saunders are the best then the new ones when all they had was guest stars on it

[discotits]

"Sophizdichated..." LOL

[GoldCoffee]

Lmao, the last bit was the funniest i thought lmao.

'Ermmmmmmm sophisticated, singer, liverpool, scouse' Lmao

[porter201095]

so so so fuuny dawn has got sonia down 2 a T!!

is it me but in sonia's video "youll neva stop me from loving you" she looks like a really really small person lol :P LOVE YA DAWN

[Saggaroth]

That was funny although I have no idea who that Sonia person is

[edwinwilde85]

Hahahaha. This is hysterical!!!

[NEELAELISABET]

Who sang this song originally and where can i find it?

[Crease2000]

She's singing "I'm gonna close my eyes and count to ten, before I fall in love again". It is definately Dawn singing and not Kirsty MacColl.

I remember Sonia being interviewed and asked if she'd seen this sketch? She said that she had and that she attended some award ceremony or something like that where Dawn French was also present. Apparently, Dawn stayed in her dressing room cos she was really worried that Sonia was going to punch her? LOL.

[mrkick20000]

What is the song's name she sings at this show ? Sonia's ?

I doesn't sound like Kirsty MacColl's....

[Obsidian34]

rofl..Me and a mate was talking about f n s only yesterday "Sonia Spoof" just had to check it out on you tube and it's here lol ..Fantastic

[shell8625]

omg how hilarious is this i abs love f and s the best comedy duo ever!!!

[Grime1982]

This is fucking hilarious.

[JackWilkins]

Thankyou!!! Though that doesn't quite seem enough for posting this..first time I've laughed for too long. Especially her favourite drink being the mersey!!

[Summerskill]

That's definitely Dawn's voice as I have heard her singing voice before on tv and in an advert as well. It is the same voice as I have always heard. Funny woman Dawn as Sonia. Hehehe! :)

[doyoufartalot]

How funny is this? Not seen this in years!!! Dawn French does Sonia spot on!!! Dawn French should've released "I'm Gonna Cross My Heart And Count Ten" as a single as a spoof christmas song.

[only1moore]

Actually French was lip syncing "I'm Gonna Cross My Heart And Count Ten." That was Kristy MacColl who was singing the song.

[doyoufartalot]

That sounds fuck all like Kirsty MacColl.

[enrikessa]

this is just fantastic!!!especially when she sings that song "count to ten"!!

[terryveen]

V. funny indeed - not seen this in ages - made me chuckle! :o)

[ardrey06]

!! HAHA !!
