Dawn French has cancelled her Croydon show and several others on her tour due to illness.

Bookers who were hoping to see the comedian at the Fairfield Halls on Saturday night have been told they can have a full refund for their tickets.

But they have also been given the option of waiting to see if there will be a rescheduled date for the 30 Million Minutes tour and, if there is, exchange their tickets for the new date.

Anyone wishing to have an immediate refund can do so by calling the box office on 020 8688 9291 or emailing boxoffice@fairfield.co.uk.

French is suffering from labyrinthitis – an inner ear infection – and other shows cancelled include at the Empire in Liverpool and the Wycombe Swan in High Wycombe.
