Dawn French and Jackie Chan reveal their Royal secrets to Graham Norton
Tonight on The Graham Norton Show on 成人论坛 Two, guests Dawn French and Jackie Chan entertain their host with a few anecdotes about meeting Her Majesty The Queen.
听
Dawn says: "She moves as if she's on rollerblades... I decided beforehand 'no curtseying' but then immediately you do... The Queen must think she's a great comedian because all she sees is people fawning, laughing at everything she says - I was!"
听
Meanwhile, Jackie admits that when he met the Queen, his English wasn't very good. "I remember I bowed, she kept talking, but I didn't know what she was talking about. I thought 'go away'... I was happy standing there, but I kept thinking 'don't ask me any more!'"
听
Dawn reveals that she's extending her farewell French & Saunders tour.

She says: "We hadn't intended to come to London but halfway through we were enjoying it so much, we're coming to London in October."

She tells Graham that she's enjoying writing her memoirs.

She says: "I'm loving writing. I didn't want to write an autobiography as such, I've written in the form of letters... My granny is 100 years old and we've written to each other since I was 12, I'm used to writing letters."
