Live webchat with Dawn French

[rebeccamumsnet]

We are thrilled to announce that comedian, writer and actor Dawn French will be joining us here at the Towers on Wednesday 3 November, from 7.30pm to 8.30pm for a live webchat.
Dawn has appeared in some of the country's most long-running, fave shows including French and Saunders, The Comic Strip Presents?, Vicar of Dibley and most recently, Roger and Val Have Just Got In.
On top of her screen achievements, Dawn's memoir, Dear Fatty, topped the best-selling charts and now her first novel, A Tiny Bit Marvellous, is out and it's more than a tiny bit marvellous that she's joining us for a webchat. Hope you can too, but if you're unable to make it on Wednesday, post your questions here.

I am a total arse!!! How could I not know you had released and book AND asked you on here if you were ever planning to do so!!! evidently my question does not need answered....shall buy a copy and redeem myself....will you sign it for me?

Hello Dawn,

I sat behind Adrian and jennifer when the first Harry potter came out in Exeter. everybody who is anybody lives in the west country!

OOOooooh she answered my question!
I think it was Bella or Best. I just saw the cover but I daren't pick it up in case I aged by 20 years. There was a nice picture of you on the front.
If you don't need George anymore, feel free to send him my way...

@OrangeAgate

Did you get Take That tickets? Which one would you?

Not yet but def will. Can't choose between the boys, don't make me.

I love you too

Yes, the old Winston Churchill one LeQueen . Just wondered if I could REALLY get a good sideswipe into the MIL next time

MardyBra Whilst I'm not Dawn French either, along the lines of LeQueens put down 'I can change my weight, but you're stuck with that face.'
(Most often)

< swoon >

I am thrilled tou answered my question

Quite right, as it should be. They will move on to some other person to look up to.

Some of mine are currently on Michael Jackson

Hi Dawn

I love all your work incl Girls on Top yonks ago and French & Saunders.

Your F&S sketches don't seem to be on YouTube? I'd love to get hold of the one you did as two ex-pat ladies across the class divide...

wow - two wagon wheels in at the same time.... I'da managed two wheels and a jammy dodger.

QUICK MNHQ. LOCK THE DOOR.

Can you kidnap Dawn and make her stay forever and ever.

We will spend all night downloading her book and chatting.

Would you come to a come dine with me dinner?
Guaranteed to have a dessert full of chocolate profiteroles!!!!

I got an answer and I didn't even say something good

Dawn, am loving this chat.

My question is really on behalf of dd who insists that she would like to be a 'comehedeen' when she grows up - What is the best piece of advice you have ever been given regarding your career?

I would like to ask what is your best bit of advice about life in general?

ps - dd is only 6, so not any real competition for you

Her joke of the moment is...
"My bottom's not perfect - It's got a crack in it"

Book purchased.

And the sketch you did years ago the stuff and nonsense ladies who legs fell off and they carried on regardless - my sister and I still reference that constantly.

And I loved Raw Sex.

Oh Trinity!

Dawn, I still laugh out loud when I think of the ballet dancing episode of the Vicar of Dibley. You looked far better in a tutu than Darcey

Oh. My. God.

Two responses. Is that a record on webchats? Technically I shouldn't have asked that second question so the fact that you answered it might mean I get blackballed, or Justine's Henchmen might come for me in the night.If I'm not here tomorrow, people, you'll know why.

LeQueen I don't remember any heated badinage, but anyway, I'm SOOO over you, now I have Dawn in my life. You and you FF cups are history. I bet Dawn's are waaay further up the alphabet.
