Vale Barry Humphries

An Australian icon and satirical genius who held a mirror up to our small-minded parochialism for decades.

His drag persona - Dame Edna Everage - had a minor role in Ally McBeal back at the time but I'm not sure if Barry resonated with Americans outside of that. Spill the tea if there's any.

Australia has lost a Star but Melbourne has lost it's own self-made Royalty. I'm hoping King Charles will make a statement since the BRF all loved Dame Edna.

You are so late to the party. Do a search - there have been multiple threads on his death this morning.

R2, she's much too busy doing her reenactment of The Night We Burnt My Mother's Things.

OP is worse than H for not only a repeat thread, but also not announcing an important death in the correct manner.

Wasn't he in Strictly Ballrom?
