"They found me a better seat" I literally laughed out loud.

Same. Also gets funnier the more you think about it.

I am also laughing at the simplicity of it. The Kings face was a picture and great Fun had by all. I have sent this clip to all my friends and family as I know it will put a smile on their faces.

Rip Barry. I got to see Dame Edna live once. Was very very happy. And sore from laughing so hard. You brought so much joy to us possums. You have gone to make heaven a cheerier place and you mean that in the best possible way. God could use a good ribbing.

@Icandoitifiwant Год назад

That is EXACTLY correct. I saw Dame Edna live in Chicago once and my rib cage and lungs were actually sore from laughing so hard! NOBODY could make me laugh like Barry. SUCH A LOSS!! What a gifted comic genius! Very sad when I heard this news.

@takata98 Год назад

I never saw Dame Edna live, but! I think of all the iconic moments I always recall was the "They found me a better seat!". It showed a totally relatable and more humorous side to Charles and Camilla to enjoy spur of the moment unexpected humour, not unlike that we witness with HM QE2 when she did the Paddington Bear clip. I always related to Barry Humpries "Dame Edna" clips far more than any of his other characters. A huge talent lost, RIP!.

@margaretoconnor3687 Год назад

In the late 1970s I was living in Hong Kong. Dame Edna opened a Christmas fete and her beady eyes spotted me holding a rather peculiar pair of ornaments I had bought. "Oh Possum" she trilled " For me? How kind of you, just what I need for Madge's Christmas present......she has no taste either" . After that I rather lost track of the one sided conversation because I was almost helpless with laughter. Wonderful man , he will be sorely missed.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

One of the great comedic minds of all time. Dame Edna is the diva of all divas. What’s great about this moment? Charles is laughing so hard, that Edna almost cracks up. “I’m so sorry. They’ve found me a better seat.” With that; she just leaves. I can’t. I wish Barry Humphries could have lived forever. This comedy line, will live in my head forever.
