There was a copyright claim on the song "As Time Goes By". RUclips Studio said that I could either cut the audio for 1 minute, or cut both the audio and video. I chose to just cut the audio.
These are Alexander's last words: But you know Beryl, she didn't mind going back to the facility and the Korean carers. Because she had forgotten about her toiletries and the thirsty hydrangea and the lost slipper. You see she'd been down to St. Kilde. She could hear the music again. I was never much of a dancer. But Beryl used to like to sing when she was dancing, save talking. I never said anything, just "Sorry". "Sorry", I was sorry too. I am sorry.

I’ve never felt so saddened by the passing of a famous person as I am today, learning of the passing of the mighty Barry Humpries. RIP YOU ABSOLUTE LEGEND 🫡
I feel the same 😢
Not since George Harrison died, can't believe we'll never see the genius that was Barry Humphries again!! Thank god for RUclips!!! Rest Easy dear Mr Humphries
What a talented, intelligent, witty and brave comedian. I adore Barry Humphries!
Not only one of the best comedy performers of all time, but articulate incredibly intulectual, so very well educated and well read, i salute you/her lol, you will never fail to make me laugh, absolute one in a million, not just a national treasure, universal !!!!
The man is a genius
Thank you for all the belly laughs Barry, the other side will be the richer for having you there. What a gift to humanity you've been!! You're my hero ❤💐❤💐❤
I have never forgotten the time we went to a theatre just off Piccadily Circus in London in the 1970's. There was a large flashing neon sign amongst the lights at the Circus pointing to the theatre and saying "Lovely Australian Lady This Way". From the moment he stepped onstage to the curtain the whole audience was in fits of laughter. I'll never forget the disgusting bloke holding a drink who appeared from the back just behind us and shambled down to the stage spraying spit all over people on the way. It was, of course, Sir Les
Patterson, a character I had never seen before. Unforgettable and a great loss, though all good things come to an end. Thanks Barry and Rest In Peace.
There is no doubt that Barry is extraordinary. How anyone could create such a wonderfully enticing reflection on ordinary people puts him in a league of his own.
.. came to watch 10 mins of this recording and ended up watching 2 hours and 38 mins whilst being 100% entertained😂❤ What a legend! RIP
Extraordinary. Phew.
Never ever will be another even slightly similar to the inimitable BH!
His audience monologue an hour and a half in is abs FANtasTIC. Barry's true genius lies in the ad-lib element. I don't think there's a celeb/comic in all of Hollywood that can match his ability. Bravo! Simply outstanding.
Yes, he was a genius and part of this comes from him being extremely erudite. He was a scholar of literature and art as well as a brilliant actor, who disdained and critiqued the concept of 'celebrity'.
So much has changed in the last 20 years that much of this would have to be explained to people under 40 today.
I'm under 40 and I luckily understand everything because of how I grew up and I'm so glad I do! I miss this kind of humour and daring. The witless insult and toilet humour of today along with the empty headed worshipped social media idiots of today are disappointing and painful to see.
A national treasure.
Absolutely a comic genius.
OMG😂😂.
What a legend.
There will never be another.
I have laughed with you for most of my life😅
I read yesterday morning that you were in high spirits.
I saw last night you were gone.
RIP Barry Humphries
I have no words.
❤❤😢
What a wonderful treat on a quiet, lonely Saturday evening here in East Coast USA ! A fantastic performance by all. Fun to see a couple characters that I've never met during performances I enjoyed, here in the US. And Dame Edna's closing fur reminded me of pal Liberace's opening coat. Entire show absolutely beautiful and entertaining. Thank you Mr Barry . . . and looking forward to another visit from Dame Edna to the US. ♥️♥️
It's a lonely Sunday here in the UK, I am so warmed by this beautiful and hilarious stage show 🙂
Genius at work!
Just came across this video, what a brilliant way to spend an hour or so, such talent, Mr Humphries is a genius and reads his audience so well, I regret that I have not been able to see him live, he's a real treasure and I feel all the better for watching this, what a gift he is.....😊
What a timeless and extraordinary talent, we are so lucky to have lived to witness.
Barry has enriched so many lives by making us laugh.
Thank you Barry.❤❤❤
Thank you it's amazing to see this show available online.
The stories of the gentle pranks he did on buses and trains were hysterical. Such a delightful man. 🌿💘
Absolutely astonishing! Barry's characters are brassy, brazen, bold and beautiful. The subtle and sophisticated understanding, the intuitive intelligence, the simultaneous reverence and loathing of all things unworthy and banal, all form part of Humphries' extraordinary razor-sharp eye for detail and his deep, thoroughgoing humanity.
Ubsolute genius. RIP Barry HUMPHREY'S. ❤❤😢😢😢
RIP Genius ❤
My god i would have LOVED being in this show...!!!
Brilliance incarnate ⭐️
No one is more political uncorrect than the australian (star) diplomat Sir Les Patterson!
I LOVE IT! ❤
Thanks and thanks again - for laughs during the years - from a true norwegian fan!!
And thanks to carldpatterson, for uploading this masterpiece! 👍
And of course - Dame Edna is also sensational, astonishing, enchanting - and a bit stunning, as well! 😁
Thank you Barry...What a Ledgend !! RIP Mate.
I know that everyone talks about sir Les and dame Edna but the Sandy Stone performance was spectacular. I was privileged to see the show live.
Evening in Paris perfume …and Ponds cream….jiving on a Wednesday and Saturday night. Never heard a swear world and never drank..It was great….you are missing a lot today..I WISH I COULD GO BACK….Ho! How I wish…….Miss you Dame Edna …
Absolutely F🤬 Hilarious thanks for the clip luv Barry n Edna.👍
Thank you so much for posting this. I saw this show in London a long time ago. I never thought I would see the Alexander Horace Stone routine again.
In this day and age. Classic,
Just
A master of his craft!
Rest In Paradise Edna 🙏❤🙏
Rest In Paradise Barry 🙏💙🙏
What a wonderful epitaph for a brilliant comedian
Thankyou for sharing this wonderful show ❤😂😂😂
So funny, so sad though another comedy gem gone.
This man was absolutely BRILLIANT. In both his comedic wit and overall intellect. He was a VERY learned and well read person despite the goofy characters he played. He certainly was one of a kind and i genuinely doubt ANYONE will ever replace his comedic genius. I hope your resting peacefully now Barry. And THANK YOU for all the great memories you left us with. God bless and put a smile on the lord's face up there.
Thank you Edna. A real treat.
I thought I'd dip into a few minutes of this before turning in for the night, but once Sir Les belted his way through "Up Those Foreign Parts," I was a goner. I have to say his two dancers were icing on the cake.
It's now 2022..and if Ian and Samantha got over the last 19 years..they will be fine.
what a Legend. Brilliant, I was "married" on stage on his final tour date. Something I will never forget. Thanks for the laughs Barry.
Brilliant
A real Humphries tour de force, one man on stage for 2 1/2 hours, what a show! I was lucky enough to have seen Dame Edna on stage in 2016, but here are 3 more characters plus the man himself. Edna was bad taste posing as elegance, egotism posing as humility, cruelty posing as compassion, stinginess posing as generosity - all the defining postures of modern society, politics and celebrity - and somehow making it the funniest thing ever. I’ve never laughed so much in all my 80 years. Genius.
Your Eulogy is absolutely spot on, Mr. Stevenson! Thank you!
Excellent, simply excellent..RIP Barry .
Just wonderful: thank you for posting this - I can't stop smiling
Brilliant. LOVE Edna & Co😀
Saw Edna on Broadway in 2005. Hands down the funniest show I ever had the good fortune to witness. Breathtakingly, shockingly funny.
Such a fabulous grasp of Australian kulture. Just love it.
I LOVE dame edna!
Thank you so much for uploading this. I loved it!
Brilliant. Just brilliant.
What a wonderful man he was 😢
The distance of the house from the street is STILL a defining social status marker in the US.
He learnt a great deal watching Melbournites - possums and koalas
It's a loss, all the joy and wisdom of barry humphries. RIP
Such a brilliant talent and a lovely person ! RIP Barry 🙏👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
We all miss you bazza! 💜💜💜💜❤️🧡💜💚💜
A piece of Australia has just died. So, so sad.
Les Patterson's Australian Cheese Board jollity , although told routinely , both in his performances and interviews , invariably cracks me up perhaps more than any other humorous banter in his repertoire . I laugh so exhaustingly that it hurts !
Wonderful
God bless you Barry
Like him or not, he was an extraordinarily talented man. Often very funny and at times quite humane. He will be missed.
Thats the best. Wow! The best.
Unrivalled
RIP
He is the Best Ever
RIP Genius 😢❤
Les Patterson had fabulous legs…….
Classic! Do a ComeBack. Baz, please.
He died yesterday. Aged 89
If only
The most intelligent and funny man ever lived
Regarding his first home, in Scotland the local authority would have crammed three separate homes into this building. The typical approach being to provide a roof over the head of the "cattle".
Thanks for your videos. If you ever get a chance could you reupload the stand up show you had. I know it was taken down but it would be great seeing it again
God Bless 🎉
Has anyone seen this particular incarnation of the wonderful Mr. Humphries, at any time, in the same close physical environs as the piano-playing Jools Holland - concurrently, at the same time etc, as it were for instance?
Well will certainly will miss Les Patterson
Wonderful! Brilliant! Sad to know we now only have these records to enjoy, but grateful we have.
Can anyone say what Alexander Horace Stone’s final lines were. They seem to have cut out of the youtube & were clearly the most poignant in a moving performance! Can anyone help. ?
Look I'm not comparing myself to Jesus....then again , lol
Gerhardt is adorable!
He was in my opinion a genius.
How prophetic was Sandy Stones appearance?🙏
You look as if you’ve slammed into a few things in your time, Sandra, but I mean that in a lovely caring way ..
j ai ri aux larmes
Vale
how is it Edna's victims struggle to recall and relay their own lives?
Did the audio cut out around the 1hr 11min mark?
Yes. See the uploader’s comments in the description.
There was a copyright claim on the song "As Time Goes By". RUclips Studio said that I could either cut the audio for 1 minute, or cut both the audio and video. I chose to just cut the audio.
I understand. Do you think you could re-upload it with the video cut instead? It was a very poignant and sad moment it the monologue. I think it's the culmination of the piece and more important to hear it.
I appreciate the upload nonetheless. Thank you for sharing this.
Australia, the last Anglosphere country with a sense of humour
The audio cuts out at 1:11

@@carldpatterson what are those last bits of dialogue from Sandy as the music starts?
@@carldpatterson and thank you for sharing this with all of us!!!

480p?
No way.
Did Barry Humphries dye his hair?
Who's Thorpey? What's the story there?
Ian Thorpe, famous swimmer.
Beak on one end tail on t'other, bird dead inbetween. Isn't nature wonderful.
even grosser watching him spit on the audience post-lockdown!
Fook, never realised the Les Patterson character sprouted such an amount homophobic stuff. This hasn't aged well. "My characters are supposed to offend". Really ? So why not do a Nazi ? Where do you draw the line ?
Melbourne fashioned and nurtured this man's stupendous talent, which, alas, my own hedonistic city of Sydney could never accomplish.
Yet he made Sydney his Australian home
Other than Dame Joan Sutherland, has there been any other genuinely outstanding, world-class talent like Mr Barry Humphries?
Barry Humphries, a masterclass in comedy. @carldpatterson If you have the old video Back with a Vengeance from 1989, would love to see it again. I used to have it on VHS and would love to watch this show again, best wishes :)
I actually uploaded that video in February 2015 but it was removed due to a takedown request by the copyright holder.
@@carldpatterson Many thanks for your reply, such spoilsports. You can not even buy it on DVD !!
@@carldpatterson No worries!
