Dawn and Jen target Winehouse, Spears
Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders are targeting troubled stars Amy Winehouse and Britney Spears in their upcoming BBC One series.

The comic pair have been filming A Bucket of French and Saunders. They have released pictures showing French with a whopping beehive hairdo, in the vein of Winehouse, and her partner with Spears-style blonde locks.

Both are dressed up to parody the singers who have both been going through difficult times this year. Spears has split up with her husband and spent a spell in rehab while Winehouse allegedly has a drug problem.

According to the Daily Mail, sketches will see French, as Winehouse, push a trolley full of empty booze bottles through a supermarket.

The new series, rumoured to be the comediennes' last, will air next month.
