According to the AA:
"Generally, UK licences are accepted in other EU countries" unless listed on this list:

Which means you'll probably be pretty safe on your UK Licence.

Assuming your question relates to just driving in France on a full UK licence, yes you can, but check with your insurance company that you are covered over there.
As far as trying to enter France with just a driving licence as your means of ID, non!. Despite promises years ago of a continent without frontiers, it's not possible to leave the UK without a valid passport.

I don't think so, I think you can only travel on Driving licence within the British Isles and Ireland. I have travelled to the Irish Republic on only a full UK driving licence (one of the new pink ones with your picture on it) flying by Ryanair, but to go to the Continent they require you to have a valid UK passport as well.

You cannot enter France on a driving licence; you need a passport.

You can so long as its the pink one with your photo on it. Thats why they were introduced to make them compatible in Europe

as long as you have your passport to cross the border you can drive wherever you like with it.
