The “people” laughing wasn’t a studio audience - there never is one on those “breakfast programmes” - it’s the camera crew and show runners - Dame Edna knows what will make them giggle and says it! It’s usually along the lines of verbal abuse and humiliation and we, the televisual audience, just love her for it! 🤣🤣 Get better soon Barry …. 🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻

Dame Edna is an Australian Icon - What started as a University Skit with Barry Humphries has become a status of Australia. Dame Edna also appears with Sir Les Patterson in her shows. Adored in the UK she had her own celebrity show in the 90's.

Dame Edna is on a U.K. Breakfast show called Good Morning Britain. The presenter is called Loraine Kelly. There are no audiences on U.K.’s Breakfast shows. Apparently Koalas don’t get high on Eucalyptus leaves.

No... Dame Edna never laughed 'with' anyone. She always laughed 'at' or 'down' on others which is what always made her a legend of comedy. RIP Barry & Dame Edna. Thankfully there are many Dame Edna clips on YT that we can keep laughing many many more times.

No audiences in the studio Squirrel and no doubt those who watch on TV too as they have either left for work, are doing the school run etc. The yellow circle with 9.02 (bottom left) was the breakfast show clock. Eucalyptus oil is used in decongestants, so no wonder I can breathe once I've inhaled the stuff!😃 Wishing our adopted possum Barry/Dame Edna well.

Koalas dont get high. The eucalypt leaves dont have much nutrient therefore koalas dont have much energy. Thats why they sleep up to 20 hours a day.

I'm an Australian. Koala bears can be very vicious if disturbed or cornered koala's have very sharp claws that will rip you to shreds if you get too close to them in the wild they eat the eucalyptus leaves which makes the drunk. but it doesn't make them placid at all it makes the sleeply. but they will still attack you if disturbed. Dane Edna is an Australian icon as well as he altered ego, sir Les Patterson.

There is just “something” about men, dressing up as women - like Barry Humphries and sadly dear departed Paul O’Grady, that just makes us laugh - perhaps it’s just a UK thing?? I dunno - but it’s probably the fact that Dame Edna and Miss Lily Savage say such brutal (truthful?! 😂) things about fellow celebs that make us laugh so much - whereas Barry or Paul would not DARE to be so rude for fear of being sued for deformation etc! 😲😊🤣 A comment Dame Edna once said - about her, at the height of her film fame - “I wouldn’t say Bo Derek was thick but when she was walking through Central Park and saw a bench that said “wet paint”, she peed on the seats…” Bo Derek = not happy 🤣🤣

@beardedchefau Жыл бұрын
Incorrect. It's because the leaves are so low in nutrients that koalas need more sleep than most animals which basically helps them conserve energy so it may seem like they are high but in fact they are just tired

Lorraine is one of those daytime magazine shows. So I've not seen this clip before. It does seem quiet, perhaps it was a covid thing. Edna was in more reflective mood, but still entertaining.laughing at the misfortune of others was a joke. Not to be taken seriously.

“Laughing at other’s misfortunes” can bring so much shared laughter with that person when they absolutely know you’re in their corner. My friend was 90% blind with wet macular degeneration. As she obviously couldn’t drive, I would take her shopping. As she was paying for purchases at a retail counter (needing help), I would casually lean in and ask her if she’d mind driving home as I was tired and didn’t want to deal with the rush-hour traffic. Without missing a beat, she would say sure she would. The horrified look on the faces of the staff was priceless. She and I would walk out trying to contain our howling laughter. We did other variations of these antics. Even with medical help, nothing could change what was happening to her, but she (we) refused to let it eat away at her joyful soul. Shared laughter IS the music of the soul. 🩷🇨🇦🩷
