JohnfromUK Posted April 22, 2023 Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 (edited) I'm not normally a fan of 'drag' but I did find Barry Humphries very funny as Dame Edna and also as Sir Les Patterson. A sharp sense of humour and used with great skill. It looked so easy, but no doubt a LOT of hard work and thought went into those scripts. He will be missed.

Scully Posted April 22, 2023 Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 Great shame. It was just the other day he was saying he didn’t plan on going anywhere after receiving fan mail regarding his recovery from a stint in hospital. I found him hilarious, especially as Dame Edna, and his ‘An Audience with….’ show was one of the funniest in that series in my opinion. He will be missed.

Diver One Posted April 22, 2023 Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 RIP SIr Les Patterson Cultural attaché to the court of St James. Makes me laugh just looking at him. Have you seen his story on YouTube about an in flight sick bag and some Sandwich Spread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
