Dame Edna Everage 9 February 1985 Aspel & Company 1985

once or twice in every century a personality is thrown up whose strength magnetism and sheer style as a lasting effect on society our age has thrown up my next guest ladies and gentlemen Dame Edna Everage the woman say the same time I'm absolutely stunned I look a bit like a living pest pattern binder is is this the new Dame Edna it is my little spunky punky lovers I can get away with it before you do Michael nothing it's extraordinary what one is it renders not and yet it's got a certain style I mentioned style when I introduced you and people have copied you for years do you think this will and people cuffing me slavishly but I've got a very young following I have a lot of young people returning over from the match of the day to watch me yeah because I do I've got it like you a lot of young people who adore me I'm a bit of a roll marble you know what that is ain't it wouldn't won't worry you as I copied you because I mean I'm not okay well clear we could run something up for you living it father you're the reply to sort of drop their British Caledonian Hester I'm talking about transvestites isn't it sad about them what sort of homes are those for something you're born with it it's like weather if you know it's just the luck of the draw I mean some chaps are born with beautiful legs and some women are born not to be beautiful it's just the Letham are supposed I think it's a very word that isn't a transversal bit like stalactite isn't transverse mites as well good ones that there is there more of the average leg on show that we have seen for some I'm not surprised I mean they are quite well I'm told I've got lovely legs and I think I have I didn't look down for years I don't think I ever looked down I was about 30 and what I saw I liked when I do I mean do you have any off the cuff or off the wrist do you have any advice as far as barometers concern for the young women who are watching us now you have a young following well I do I have a young following I think just wear what you feel comfortable and I think you're an object lesson in that article okay it's more less a traveling rag laughing little Claire Einar is a good news a good news type of person you've got a big fan here mind you I was a wee bit disappointed forgive me disappointed to see you too but I have a research assistant mal bridesmaid Madge Allsop as a matter of fact she told me that a princess Reina was going to be on the show the past before Magi mean you do need any professional help at all in your work or in your style I don't really I might have a have manager Barry Humphries but you know what managers are live pretty useless yeah they are now I'm very much a free agent Michael what about for your appearance is that in time well no I hairdresser well I do it all more or less in the family keep it in a family you can't trust hairdressers these days cause the Lord depends what you're wanting to do of course have to be very careful who fumbles with your follicles of success dye will confirm they talked and I don't ever you know except on nationwide television I'll never tell intimate things about myself that Marty Princess Diana's very very well she feels she can trust me and I'm not certainly going to divulge any confidences on this share except by now when she's going to have another little baby she's told me this hair so tell us no I couldn't and she's also tell me who the father is game couldn't I give a lot of advice to people clear a lot of people but I never charged with like you know cuz I get a lot of letters from ladies that you have the unfollowing I know but ladies knew your age who are dying to know how it is you're looking so well when you're obviously going through the menopause love I mean how do you cook I could have cast to it and not married clear I think I did that something will never affect you it'll die a little gypsy that you are wearing I'm not wearing real jewelry I heard I was going to be sitting next to a gypsy you never know what I get up there I'm going to come back we hope this cuz I do want to no no no I I think that sometimes we fix some women a lot more than the fix out us their little time of life and I think it's a lot to do with your attitude of mind Angie ladies watching either I'm very clear the question mulling it over yes but I'll be very very pleased and data now that you've made the decision to do your show anyone sorry my darling because the opposition I believe are going three times a week and it's too much I think once a week is quite enough most women will agree with me you'll be keeping yourself off that particular round of shows well it once I've been on one show they all want of course so you imagine David and to some extent you to music I'm not plugging anything I don't spaz you are either but here I am on the Sham of selling a book or a hit record I'm just here I'm just giving of myself I can't understand that sometimes my tax lawyers they ring me up as a Dickens here during the Asheville sheriff or now say I'm sorry I just got so much to give some to share outside what it's gratefully received believe me can I talk again about beauty because I'm surrounded by it tonight and David is the only David is the only one here who certainly has not approached the menopause and that's it prettiest Matt and yes he is also a devilish handsome no no but without any help you see without any help at all a little help would you ever Damon the resort - what's it called an surgery of the cosmetic kind no I wouldn't I believe in cosmetic surgery and I've recommended it to a lot of people clearly translated a soft landscape he did all I do a little bit of a few little nips and tucks with a high neckline like that the problem is sometimes and reveling in the bath what about the rest of the family I mean how are the children getting on you were rather worried about what was I'm worried I'm a caring and concerned mother sorry but I'm I'm terribly sorry Michael but I am I've had my problems and the children David these are Jim James I love the neo sixties lapentti my son Heaney designed this for me he does Mahiro holiday my son Kinney ah and he designed it enough you know I think it's very good as like really it's me now it's the acceptable face of Pat I was a bit worried about kitty because now he's been very very slow in finding miss right mm but he's taking his time bless his heart then my daughter Velma of course is a real wearing with the glue sniffing anything now I have to win we went out we had to hide the do sometimes for this half an hour two hours just hiding it I can never find it again that was the problem I put some of it in a cistern once I remember and years later we found a skeleton sitting on the lavatory no Matheson you know he's jogging now he's gone to mystique to a creep recuperate a bit he's down if it's a slab it'll probably seem when she's there you jumps along he's very conspicuous there's a man follow him with a drip there my business magnet must be used to see anything it'll destroy their work norm being for so much of his life incapacitated and now jogging and love should wake la noise is jogging in the steek I mean y'all you've had a lonely life you trod a lonely path have you been tempted elsewhere I have I'm human I've got drives clear of a juices naturally i i've sublimated it clear I have I have because just marriage is too important for me norms of darling he really is he's being a bit naughty getting better but is it that I have my bridesmaid module sup she's very demanding you know she's a naughty elf thing really some people signing her behind every successful woman is a sniveling failure and she's one of them she can't help it you know she supports me in many many ways little Fanning the way she's looking back there I'd like you to meet her you can help her such a lot clearer you think so huh but surely you must have had other offers from men are you persisting in this you looking so brother's piecing on television what you said to me the other day mark less what I wanna be mrs. ask for number four I'm teasing viewers I am mocking are very very platonic I wouldn't be on the show I take it all with a bit of a grain of salt because a lot of people find that I think to myself isn't it nice they think I'm approachable you see why haven't I got a chat show like this this is incredible amazing I wish such a megastar so popular for uses marijuana thought the name link I wouldn't have celebrity guests I have not any Diaz David David just said a word I was only gonna say they're probably to friend to ask they probably are David Akashi intimidated exactly it's an untouchable figurehead of society that they would not approach did you know you had an untouchable figure what I didn't tell them darling but that's the only explanation I can think of because think how many people in tuned I like course I love you and I would be sort of the other side of the coin in a way wouldn't I I'm just playing I'm saying this deliberately and I hope that I will get office or some other major networks so LWT I'm it would be nice and I think I've got so much to sort of communicate I don't need a man either of course yes or no and as you don't need the money has it always been the case then to be a megastar was a calling for you with sense of vocation or what it sort of happened you know when I saw you first David Essex and though he's not saying much I'm referring to her quite a bit I first saw you in that Godspell production that you were talking about goodness I adored it little gods for someone's really musical about me by the way about some of my miracles did you know that perform miracles Island I'm not talk or did spill the show I came to before his spell it's experimental it'll probably be man additional pump theaters you know one of those about offbeat things to read about in time out after it's too late then pig's nostril on Sunday night and it's about my miracles and the miracles I've performed a special making making all sorts of different people all shapes and sizes laughs to me that's not a miracle it's just something that I can do it's matters what a gift it is what a lucky lucky woman I am and I see - I think when I'm a little bit lonely and thinking Here I am so famous in your I can this heartache I think I'm here to give I'm on the claret I'm on the planet to give as much as I can what a feedback I get don't wait it's not just a letters you get those letters s well you get these girls fainting and you clear goodness knows what you get it is because we all wear people salad they lucky this squid in ears and I think sunglasses are said good I could do a musical about you put like a spell couldn't think I just thought of their little yes what do you think you might have been and if you'd not be the megastar money means nothing just to give a device to other people help them yes I do I mean as you know I do help as much as I can I think people will be ringing in the switchboards will be Jam tonight and I'll be saying you know I was just a Richard and happy sort of introverted sort of a person crawling around and then I saw that show and the wonderful guests whose names you know I can't remember de mierda now and they said where I saw there I just felt different just put a new Gavin little new dimension to living and that's the sort of thing that she does all episode when we hear that well one thing I am sure of Dame Edna the phone will have been bringing by that course a switch but I've been told as a man over there making little miming that they jammed that's me was sir and it's a difficult thing to mine when you come I don't know how I can bring that round to a song but seem fresh make obvious no but I do have David this is the song is called falling angels riding that's an interesting title does it have any significance yes it does it's about two boys trying to escape their environment and taking the wrong road but human interest song listen something you think when the show's over David could sing us for us we need time hello chick can I move the news good I'd love to heal I thought I heard a little bit of it on rehearsals in rehearsal chuckling and I think it's going to be another biggie for little babies you have yourself down in a chemist or store that my uncle did this so uncle leave like Nicky user with a coconut no was it sterilized darling your uncle Levi this did you just put your lab on the kitchen sink in you have to have a little sleeper in it yeah sleeper just on the stud either a sleeper we women have had experience of one a little spooky out feeling I interrupted something you can sing that little dickie of yours yeah it smell of production ideas I should have consulted with you I see yourself as a bit of a song producer and I had a whisper backstage and don't be put off a few funny old things happen during your life lovely dinners production ideas ladies and gentlemen without any further ado my butt and my star tonight yes it is that survival time a gorgeous well-preserved David Essex and he's going to sing his new hit single the biggie really the big one for you I think attended what's called angels ride you
