      Exactly what I was thinking. RIP all of them. Olivia Newton John was so sweet. Her grandfather was Max Born a very very clever man.

      Rue McClanahan of the golden girls was born on February 21, 1934 - 4 days younger but passed away in June 2010.

    I remember vividly watching this at the time (my first experience of watching Dame Edna and my whole family screamed with laughter). Can’t believe so much time has gone by, I was 16 then and now you can flip those digits. R.I.P. to all you wonderful voices from the past.

    Gloria and Olivia fangirling over each other... (Love how Olivia calls her "Ms Swanson' - Gloria smiling at the respect) in the most polite way... they're both so delightful and gorgeous. Livvy singing live. And Parky, Livvy and Ms Swanson cracking up over Dame Edna. Just fabulous.

    I'm very pleased that someone still has this episode, but why oh why did you cut Dame Edna’s entrance where she threw gladioli to the audience. The look on Gloria Swanson's face was what made it!

    RIP to "Parky"....but i always think of my dad, as we used to watch "Parkinson" religiously, but im sure it was so my dad could see how many times he touched or scratched his nose..."go on touch your nose" my dad would cry...then when he did my dad would go "wahhhhey" followed by the number, in order, of times he touched it during the episode

    Go back and listen to those three big hits now. You know Peter Allen opened a lot of doors for Olivia. And when she teamed up with Jeff Lyne it went ballistic. She was lucky but she used her luck
