"I enjoyed having Joan Collins groveling to me" says Jennifer Saunders of her cameo role in A MIDWINTER'S TALE "but in other respects I found the film quite terrifying because it's very much an ensemble piece in which all the rest of the cast knew each other really well and I came in late in the day to do a small part - and in a Texan accent! Fortunately I had met Joan before and we were able to sit being nervous together." Jennifer Saunders is half of one of Britain's most successful comedy duos, French and Saunders, and an original member of the iconoclastic Comic Strip team with whom she has appeared in numerous films and television specials. She is also the creator and star of the international hit television show "Absolutely Fabulous" in which she plays Edina, fashion PR and mother from hell. Three series of the show ran on BBC-TV and its characters, including Joanna Lumley's drink-sodden Patsy, became household names in the UK. The first series won both a BAFTA and an Emmy, a feature film is in the pipeline and Roseanne has acquired the US television re-make rights. With Dawn French, Jennifer wrote and starred in four hugely popular series of "French and Saunders." She also co-wrote and starred in "Girls on Top" with French and Ruby Wax. In the theatre French and Saunders completed a sell-out tour of their show, "An Evening With French and Saunders" and starred together in the drama "Me and Mamie O'Rourke" at London's Strand Theatre. Jennifer has recently completed a role in the new Muppet film, "The Muppet Treasure Island" in which she plays the feisty innkeeper, Mrs. Bluveridge.
