Is it me or does Dawn French look a lot like the the man who played Dennis is Jurassic Park in this - Wayne Knight. Especially here 4.20 I love this Parody - better than the film for me. Everyone else I know loved this film I just couldn't bring myself to like it.
God, this is brilliantly funny! I'm in tears, lmao. I love it. I was a bit saddened during the first part when I realized it wasn't really the actors making fun of themselves, but this is loads better! Fantastic!
I really love this :) . Jennifers impersonations of Meryl Streep are fabulous, she sounds and looks like her loads. On Comic Strip The Strike, she does another impression of Meryl Streep and its as if it was actually Meryl, its really weird but amazing. Jen has Meryls characteristics spot on. Love it. :) .x.
'The winner takes it all' and 'Bur bur bur' had me clapping my hands to my mouth, desperately trying not to wake up my neighbourhood xD These women are amazing.
@Minty210 same i think they were the two things that got me crying with laughter, along with Joanna Lumley's dancing in "Does your mother know" and Matt Lucas' dancing instructions
I love it when Joanna says "I dont know what we're supposed to be doing.". Dawn "No neither do i, just do Patsy that's all you can do". Its hilarious. Jennifer, Dawn and Joanna are amazing love them all. .x.
I love it when Joanna says "I dont know what we're supposed to be doing.". Dawn "No neither do i, just do Patsy that's all you can do". Its hilarious. Jennifer, Dawn and Joanna are amazing love them all. .x.
I really think Meryl Streep and Julie Walters are brilliant, but the parody on their mannerisms, are spot on. Is the guy with the 'buh wuh' part that starts around 4:58 supposed to be Pierce Brosnan or Colin Firth (I saw the movie, but do not remember that).
"WORDS IN BETWEEN." "KEPT IT TO SUMMERTIME SPECIAL 1978". Just two of the brilliant quotes. Joanna Lumley parodying Tanya....love the clueless director also. Jennifer and Philip Glenister....could go on forever. This was brilliant. And I love the movie.
This is probably a stupid question because it's meant to be funny but if anyone can actually understand / hear what she's saying in "French" what does Sienna Miller actually say?
I know it was probably nonsense but if it wasn't I'm curious. I can speak some French but she was speaking too fast for me.
I just LOVE British humor. This had me in stitches...I can't believe I am crying...Love these women...I LOVE Dawn French, she is a wonderful actress...The movie Mama Mia sucked so bad...this was a vast improvement.
Everything is great but Joanna Lumley just knocks it out of the park. (And I remember her as Purdey in 'The Avengers'). And - who's the guy as Brosnan, singing at the wedding? He's sensational.
@jjarndyce Philip Glenister, known for his role as Gene Hunt in British television series Life On Mars and its sequel Ashes To Ashes. hes the best one in both. First time seeing him in comedy though, thats half the joke.
I love the irony when Sienna says to them they were too old for the role...and their reply "cut her out", love the crotch grabbing - they got the moves so right it is hilarious.
"how dare you assume i'm straight!!" hahahaahaahah love it :DD love the movie and i love this!!! one of the best of french and saunders :D they're hilarious!!!
I absolutely LOVE Joanna Lumley in this! I just burst out laughing when she sings "Well I can dance with you honey...". They're all so brilliant but Joanna Lumley is stunning in this and shows how phenomenal she really is!
I loved that "Winner Takes It All" scene in the original movie — Meryl was genuinely good in it — but boy does Jennifer do a good impression of it! Haha.
Awesome!!! Mamma Mia is one of my favourite movies and I love the part with Pierce Brosnan,he can't sing and they do it hilarious here!!! Jennifer is awesome as Donna,Joanna is perfect as Tania(she's like Patsy Stone!)and Dawn's style is like Rosie's!!! Fantastic parody,great!!!
Great fun. I've watched this a few times but have only just realised that Dawn's elderly waitress bit is possibly a parody of Julie Walter's waitress in Victoria Wood's "Two Soups" sketch.
Jennifer looks exactly like Meryl did in the movie!!
