Compare this with the best humour the US influence can produce being Trumps utterances and dodging. One is pretty sick and doesn't bring much joy to any but the deluded suckers and lawyers. & Guliani can attest to where that sort of joy can go by getting too close. Associating with the poufia inside. get it?
I’m a proud lefty, feminist 74 year old who grew up in Tasmania (that bushy island state) and also grew up with the incomparable Barry Humphries. I adored him and all his alters, including the hilariously revolting Sir Les, our greatest ever representative at the Court of St James. I am so grateful for the treasure trove of videos such as this to be found online. We need Barry and his capacity to make us laugh to the point of tears more than ever in these ghastly times. RIP Barry Humphries 🩷🙏
I love/respect comedians like bill burr, bill cosby (comedically speaking), robin williams, Jim carrey, who, except for hill burr cause I’m 37 now) were huge influences on me and my humour from a younger age Barry is an enigma and so unique in his apparent almost freestyle, off the cuff and intellinltent humour that makes him one of my favourite
I am in the embarrassing usa and am not familiar with mr Humphreys. Seeing this clip, he kept me laughing. I see why he is being memorized. He is hilarious !! R.I.5P. Sir
Just astounding. Turns a regular TV interview program into an old time music hall show, by way of the absurd, but always with wit, adding the macabre, basically entertaining, clever but never high-brow. A one-man wonder
I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve watch this clip and others with Barry Humphries and every time I end up with tears of laughter. Genuinely a comic genius.👍👍
