Lananeeneenoonoo was a British female vocal group consisting of comediennes Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders and Kathy Burke. The group, and its name, was a pun on the popular group Bananarama and was introduced during the 1988 Christmas Special of "French & Saunders", in which Kathy Burke was a guest.
In 1989, along with Bananarama, they created a charity single called "Help", to raise money for Comic Relief. It was a cover version of The Beatles song "Help!". It was released on the London Records label, and entered the UK Singles Chart on 25 February 1989, reaching a high of #3. It remained in the chart for nine weeks.[1][2]
