    A comedy legend and one of the funniest people that ever lived. Like Eric Morecambe, he could have the audience rolling in the aisles with a mere facial expression. RIP Barry Hunphries.

    Comparing these interviews with the ones Michael Parkinson did with both characters shows how inept an interviewer Clive Anderson is. Instead of allowing Humphries' characters to shine like Parkinson, Anderson constantly interrupts, breaks the the flow and dampens the humour. What an irritating little man he is.

God bless the incredible Barry Humphries. Hilarious.

    • @laxeystu8096
      @laxeystu8096 4 года назад +4

      He's a comedy writer and performer. The idea of the format was that rather than giving the guests an easy time as chat shows had previously, he would come back at them with wise cracks. It was good (he's a former barrister), but it got old because it could be a bit OTT, and of course the bee gees walked off, which more or less finished it off.

  • @ah7910
    @ah7910 7 месяцев назад +2

    What annoys me - Clive tried to break the 4th wall and ‘out’ Barry Humphries mid-performance. Who the HELL did he think he was? A very cheap and desperate shot from Clive, clearly frustrated Dame Edna was stealing his thunder and leading. Clive’s dry humour didn’t gelled with me - though he could be reverent to some guests, usually he was snide and a bit too sarcastic for my taste. Bare in mind that Dame Edna had hosted her own shows and interviewed huge A-list celebrities at this point in her career, probably bigger than Clive could attract for his own show... The arrogance of the man, to try and ‘out’ Edna as Barry during mid-performance wasn’t playing fair. Such a petty move, it would of achieved nothing had he succeeded, it wouldn’t have got to the audience on side, it wouldn’t have even tempered Barry and allowed him to host with more control, it was just a mean-spirited move and I LOVE how Barry Humphries just refused to even dignify it and carried on.
