Dragged up all the way from the ocean bed, national treasures Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders are back together this festive season with a special 30th anniversary clip show that's bursting with brand new material, greatest hits, hilarious rarities, and even some never-before-seen footage.

TV's phenomenally talented funny girls return for a new Christmas special with a host of hilarious send-ups and sketches that we all know and love - and woe betide any guest stars who have been foolish enough to accept their invitation. Vera Drake, Chicago and The Graduate all get the typical French & Saunders treatment - you'll never be able to watch the originals again without laughing.

Tells the comedic story of aging partners Freddie and Stuart, two men who have lived together in their Covent Garden flat for nearly 50 years. Freddie was a budding actor and Stuart worked in a bar when they first met, but their careers are pretty much over and their lives now consist of entertaining their frequent guests, making sure that their aged dog Balthazar is still breathing, and hurling caustic insults at each other.
