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.

Am in personal reverie of favourite F&S sketches - how could I have forgotten the Gone with the Wind ones - god, they were hilarious.

I find "Gosh, that is quite an unpleasant thing to say, I find that rather hurtful" tends to make the other person look really bad.

Dawn, have a grease stained napkin to wipe your chin.

Yep yep! Oggies can go jump in the harbour. Bloody pretenders! Ivor's the best any day.

Dawn - what do you think about clegrron riasing the cap on Uni fees??

DawnFrench · 03/11/2010 20:35

Sorry everyone, I have to go now because there's a hot pasty waiting for me. I have loved this, and I am not a tiny bit relieved that you've all logged on - have to admit to a genuine fear there would only be one person.

Bye and bless you!

I like the sketch where someone in a turban and can't answer the door as her leg doesn't work.

I use that a lot. #kids
