French & Saunders Sketch

[reveriehill1614]

This reminds me of my mom and her friend; how they used to go on about neighborhood gossip and such about people they knew :) It's like listening to them all over again!

One of their most under-rated sketches

wat r knickers???

[amegriffin3]

@Jaksken Knickers are girls underwear, panties if you will, in Britain. Hence the saying 'don't get your knickers in a twist' (roughly translated to 'don't get yourself worked up').

@Jaksken underwear

[ThePearlofeire]

What accents are they putting on here?Welsh?Irish?

[stephenrankin]

@ThePearlofeire The accent is West Country (Bristol area). The sketch was called "West Country" in the scripts

maybe 3 or 4

late 80's early 90's i guess

[malejdraha]

I don't know why but this sketch makes me feel comfortable. And it's funny as hell also.

[ZacharyDBrooks]

I don't get it. Who are they talking about?

[MBHD153]

@ZacharyDBrooks They're using a device in British comedy where one of the characters isn't shown, leaving the viewer to visualise it. I can imagine that the person lives in London (probably Notting Hill), works in PR/media, is somewhat self-obsessed, tries to be very right-on and impress her friends, has bought a property in the country for weekend visits and tries too hard to get in with the locals. Probably not far off Edina in Absolutey Fabulous!

@MBHD153 Bang on! That's what I pictured ;) ..thank you for uploading! xx

[myalternative]

@MBHD153 I would LOVE it if they did a sketch where it turns out it was Edina... how perfect would that be.

[Jems17]

@MBHD153 lol. I was reading that thinking... "eddie?"

"Her Majesty comes down here Saturday nights and sticks half a ton of coke up her nose, that's alright, but don't have any sugar in your tea!"

Many of Jen and Dawn's characters and sketches take you into their world and make you feel comfy and cosy and enjoying them and wanting more. :)
