In 2017 Slapstick Festival announced that the latest recipient of the Aardman Slapstick Comedy Legend Award would be Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders. Understandably, tickets for the Colston Hall event to honour Dawn and Jennifer sold out in under 3 hours - a record for any Slapstick event.
So it gives us great pleasure to be able to bring the event to KZfaq and share it with the many fans who failed to get tickets for the event.
Hosted by Mel Giedroyc and with a surprise visit from the inimitable Dame June Whitfield, the show features an in-depth exploration of French and Saunders career as well as clips* and personal messages from the likes of Richard Curtis, Miranda Hart, Ruth Jones (as Nessa from Gavin and Stacey) Matt Lucas, Joanne Lumley, Griff Rhys Jones, French and Saunders’ house band member Rowland Rivron and Ruby Wax.
