Jennifer Saunders Autograph

Jennifer Saunders, one of our all time favourite tv personalities, was born on 6th July 1958, and became initially best known for her double act with comedy partner, Dawn French, who offered a ground breaking female double act. Jennifer Saunders recently stated of that series "We were watching the first series recently, and it has a charm, a kind of amateur charm. At that point we didn't involve ourselves technically at all - we just messed about and told our jokes - and it looks a bit like that."

More recently she has also become well known for her role of Edina Monsoon in the BBC sitcom Absolutely Fabulous and will no doubt slip into Dame Helen Mirren's shoes when the 'Queen' retires from her film work. Married to Ade Edmondson, she has three daughters.
