Following its stylish redesign, the UK’s best-selling monthly subscription magazine, has appointed actress, writer, comedian and presenter Dawn French as its new agony aunt as of the October 2019 issue.

French’s introduction to the monthly problem page will bring a charming combination of her renowned humour and sound advice with to its readers. Describing her suitability for her new role, Dawn French commented: “Not to boast, but I am perfectly qualified for my role as Saga’s new agony aunt because A) I AM an actual aunt B) I’m often in agony (and if I’m not I ensure those around me are!)”

Louise Robinson, Editor at Saga Magazine said “We are delighted to welcome Dawn French to the Saga Magazine at a time of huge exciting change for the brand. Dawn has a wealth of life experience which perfectly positions her in advising our Saga readers.”
