Roll up! Roll up! Fear not, the wait is over, for French and Saunders are back with more Titting About!
Once again, the legendary comedy duo unearth six vitally important subjects... and then tit about about them. From surviving on a desert island to being eaten by a cardboard crocodile, Dawn and Jennifer will entertain, inform and thoroughly tit about for your pleasure. (Batteries not included.)
Ep 1: What’s Up!
From starring in Peter Pan to getting a new knee, Dawn and Jennifer catch up on everything they’ve been up to since the last series. Jen shares the difficulties of being eaten alive on stage, whilst Dawn enjoys touring and watching lots of telly. There’s also an important update on ‘the bet’ Dawn and Jen had in series 4... is it time for Jen to cough up?
Ep 2: Jobs
Dawn and Jen consider the subject of proper jobs. Real jobs that don’t just involve titting about. They role-play various different being a farmer, being a politician (Jen is alarmingly convincing), and both consider life as a surgeon. Could any of these careers be a good fit? ( no.)
Ep 3: Survival
If you’re looking for a definitive practical guide to survival in difficult situations, this episode absolutely isn’t for you. But if you want to hear Dawn and Jennifer’s ‘unique’ approach to thriving on a desert island, this episode is an absolute must.
Ep 4: Arty Farty
In this episode Dawn and Jen explore ‘art’. From bumping into Gilbert and George in Paris, to negotiating for a naked self-portrait, this is a joyous celebration of all things ‘arty farty’. contains multiple references to Dawn visiting New York when she was in her early 20s (did she ever mention she went to New York in her early 20s?).
Ep 5: Bad Things
In this quite frankly naughty revelatory episode, Dawn and Jen share all the ‘bad things’ they regularly do and reveal some they’d love to... There’s cheating at boardgames, telling fibs, peeing in the garden and – drum roll – being click-baited into buying really smelly pheromones on the internet. Something for everyone!
Ep 6: Lucky B*tches
In the final episode of the series, Dawn and Jen share an array of anecdotes from their lives as a pair of (self-identified) ‘Lucky B*tches’. From singing with the Spice Girls to performing at the Royal Opera House, via meeting Dolly Parton, David Beckham and King Charles along the way (usually whilst involuntarily enacting fairly major breaches of social etiquette).

We wanted to love this audio book more than eventuated. Yes, we had belly laughs, and yes, we kept going. But far too often we missed a bit, when the two lasses spoke or chuckled over each other, as happens when people have known each other for ages and share so much history. Still great fans, but my husband and I won't be listening to more titting about.
