Thread Name: French/ Saunders TV folk festval.
Subject: RE: French/ Saunders TV folk festval.
Those who criticise French & Saunders ought to know that both performed as folk singers before finding fame and fortune as comediennes.
Like Jasper Carrot and Billy Connolly before them some of our best comics started life as folk singers.
Both Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders have been seen with their families at folk festivals in the south of England in recent years and Dawn French is known to particularly like the singing of June Tabor and The Copper Family.
