Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders as Amy Winehouse and Britney Spears

Dawn French, complete with the Back to Black singer's towering barnet, channelled the troubled singer in a skit that sees her pushing a shopping trolley full of with empty bottles of alcohol.

Her cohort Jennifer Saunders wore one of the former pop star Spears's typically dishevelled outfits, sporting fake blonde extensions and spotty skin.

The scenes are from their latest BBC1 series, A Bucket of French and Saunders

According to new reports, Spears is being investigated for possible child abuse while Winehouse's friends and family continue to show concern for her addictions.

The mother of Winehouse's husband Blake Civil-Fielder and her husband Giles have even urged fans to stop buying her records, and the record company to cancel her contract - until she seeks help for her drug and alcohol addictions.

French and Saunders' series, which is expected to be the pair's swan song, airs on BBC1 on September
