The comedian is still haunted by an embarrassing faux pas she made following an invite to a 007 premiere.
On the famous red sofa, Dawn opened up about one particular mistake that haunts her to this day, after she accidentally sent an explicit and disparaging email about a“It was a big deal,” Dawn recalled, “but red carpets are not my thing. So, I thought it would be funny to send my PA a response that would make her laugh, and then she could send a polite ‘no’ on my behalf.”
She continued: “I wrote, with lots of swearing, ‘This will be another wanky red carpet events be full of the usual twats and I would rather have my eyes pecked out by diseased pigeons and my breasts gnawed off by rabid wild dogs’.”Dawn concluded: “I was a bit surprised a couple of minutes later to get an email from the PR department that had sent the invite, saying, ‘Thank you for your speedy response – we totally understand’.
Dawn explained: “We carry a lot of shame, humiliation, and guilt about our mistakes, and I thought, ‘These mistakes are where I have learnt the most and where the fun is.’ “So, if you can wrangle back some of that shame and shine a light on it, it dissipates. If you own your mistakes, it’s very empowering.”Dawn French Explains Why She 'Didn't Really Like' Comedy Partner Jennifer Saunders When They MetRealness delivered to your inbox
