The first half of the book is about those early days, when Saunders was scrounging about for something to do with her life and Dawn French fell into her lap. Was that before, during or after they met in the '80s? Did they meet in the '80s or was there prior history? These are all inconsequential questions that only a fan would give a shit about, and that's the target of Bonkers: My Life in Laughs and it hits the mark. I'd heard through the grapevine that Saunders and Young Ones star Adrian Edmondson were married. Later I would discover the show Girls On Top and wonder where that fit in, it being so very much like The Young Ones, and how was it Tracy Ullman was a part of that project. and when I realized both women had appeared in episodes of that show I wanted to know how that came about. and the myriad of satellite projects revolving about her, especially the work she did with her comedy partner Dawn French:īefore that I was a fan of the '80s British tv series The Young Ones. This was like taking a moneyshot facial of closure for me and I loved it! Perhaps I should explain?įor years, nay, decades now I've been a fan of Jennifer Saunders, her hit show Absolutely Fabulous.
