[@95jujo]

I miss him so much. You are spot on. RIP

[@kevinmckenzie1312]

I never tire of Lily savage. Barbara does a beautiful job and the running joke through the performance is phenomenal.

[@christine8394]

what a voice Barbara Dickson has and right on point even in a comedy sketch.

[@danfrost3043]

Barbara Dickson is one of those singers you just feel "Safe" with knowing that if anything goes wrong she'll just carry on and save the day.

[@keithwebb658]

A true professional not totally ad lib but I loved every minute ❤

[@annehudson3210]

Barbara is a lovely singer.

[@MEDSEC20]

"PLAY ANYTHING - I'LL FLATTEN IT." BARBARA SINGS LIKE AN ANGEL.

[@neilyboy8568]

One of the first things I came to after I heard the news of his passing today. Such a great double act and Lily/Paul will be so missed. RIP legend.

[@planemanship1216]

To pretend to make something a disaster and stop-start and then make it a triumph is a huge skill. Well done both!

[@ADWOFF]

This is absolutely hysterical! And Barbara Dickson is an absolutely wonderful sport to do this!

[@lynneharper3233]

I remember this audience with Lily savage, it was one of my faves 😂

[@alastairrutherford3847]

Rest In Peace Paul. Thank you for all the fun and memories. You will be missed so much ❤

[@francenjensen608]

Barbara Dickson looks younger now than 10 years ago. What a beautiful crystal clear voice.

RIP Paul! You've entertained us, showed your compassion, and have campaigned for all! Fly high! Xxxxx

[@adriftinaboat3452]

Round of applause for the orchestra -who always seem to be forgotten and without their contribution the whole thing would fall flat.

[@politicalprincess1]

Jesus

[@petersyme7083]

It was rehearsed over and over

[@keithwebb658]

It was rehearsed but still brilliant.

[@carollebasse7605]

[@patriciahosnay8794]

Legend, sadly missed but never forgotten ❤, R.I.P

[@rufusmccoy4508]

That's what experts call a "perfect timing". What a pleasure to see.

[@RR-qv8uz]

Beautiful Barbara Dickson! Stunning voice....must have been So difficult to harmonise with a non vocalist but she’s amazing enough to have seamlessly pulled off even Elaines harmonies -bravo

[@CandyHaleLinton]

The sweetest of voices..

[@jamesdevine4489]

Amazing to hear she adjusts her diction depending on the song - always gets it spot-on

[@karenthomas4575]

Barbara Dickson has a beautiful voice

[@weet1978able]

In a textbook case of not knowing what you've got until it's gone, I was surprised how hard it hit me when Paul passed away. He really was one of life's good guys, and brought so much joy & laughter to so many. I'm glad we have things like KZbin to look back on all the wonderful entertainment he gave us, and this performance with the lovely Barbara Dickson is right up there.

[@stevejeffery4951]

Actually brought a tear to my eye. A comic genius who is sadly missed 😕

[@ivyhope660]

The gift of being able to make people laugh is indeed a great gift. Take that and then add compassion for animals and you realise Paul was doubley blessed. RIP Paul. Hope you're making them laugh up there and hope Buster is with you. ❤

[@gillianhill3196]

Buster's with him for sure. Miss Paul so much, he went far too soon.

[@nickyobrien5741]

Lilly's brilliant, a comic genius and Barbara has such a beautiful singing voice. Nx 😊🌹

[@nikserof2183]

3:27 The voice, the hair, and the looks that could kill at ten paces. Sorely missed! R.I.P.

[@johnboys4697]

😝

[@annabellaharvey-lawrence4306]

With tears in my eyes making this difficult to write, a huge knot in my throat making it difficult to speak and a sadness in my heart as I remember the one & only Paul/Lilly. God rest you wonderful wonderful duo xxx

[@MoodyMike007]

Wonderful, RIP Paul, the dogs around the world will miss you as much as we will

[@belindasmith7096]

[@Wheelstar72]

RIP Paul a true British legend and a kind and compassionate man he will be missed by loads

[@shellechad5553]

Absolutely brilliant. Will miss Lily/Paul so much. RIP . They should re run The Lily Savage show xx

[@MsFanmail]

This is great Barbara is such a underrated vocalist who we don't hear much off she has a great live voice.

[@BeasleyStreet]

A legend, and that's not an understatement...

[@marywhite4857]

Her voice is fantastic.

[@Jonne_Burden]

I was so fortunate to see her in Blood Brothers in the mid 90s. She's a great actress, too.

[@zanzibar6698]

Paul O'Grady's comic timing exquisite as ever,

[@aaronjairo5456]

InstaBlaster.

[@tommoclement]

Love Barbara's voice. Lily is funny.

[@christinedavis5158]

Barbara Dickson is class---from the time I saw her complete with duffel coat and guitar on her back at the Station Hotel in South Shields in the late 60's early 70's I always knew that was the voice to go well into the 2000's and beyond---She has given Elaine Page a new career by carrying her on songs and no matter what she does--she is a living legend !!!!!

[@roxbrolady]

Given Elaine Paige a new career and carried her? Barbara is terrific, but Barbara did not contribute to Elaines's career. She was a top West End star when she sang this duet with Barbara, and continued as the leading lady in several more shows in the West End and on Broadway. She still tours to this day, to packed out audiences. Elaine's career never died!

[@kathygilbert1970]

Elaine Paige NEVER needed carrying!!

[@Gayalert69]

@@roxbrolady Fine - but Dickson is a truly great singer. She has a unique gift. Her glorious soaring vocals are a joy. Superb tone and pitch. Along with two Olivier awards she is also a fine musician - guitar and piano - and songwriter. Elaine is great but she is simply not in the same class as Barbara Dickson.

[@stephaniestj5237]

If anything it was Elaine carrying Barbara. Barbara has a pretty voice, but nowhere near the range Elaine has, and certainly not as emotive either.

[@lenagreen4031]

​@@stephaniestj5237 they were both great singers, but Elaine Page was by far the more prolific of the two. Sadly in recent years Barbaras voice has not retained its clarity unlike Elaine's. Both great singers though.

[@cikimac5207]

Lily Savage....Queen of the 90’s 😂 massive part of my childhood....

[@emw2766]

Pure brilliance, loved it 👌😀

[@janehurst3499]

He was amazing. Such a genuine authentic human who never forgot his roots, but made the world he inhabited his own.

[@Cechai]

I remember this when first shown on tv I loved it, Barbara was a good sport lovely woman. RIP Lily/Paul ❤

[@BTVAmerica]

Rest in peace our beloved Paul O’Grady ❤

[@DesHouston]

Fabulous....remember watching this at the time on television!! Barbara was such a good sport to join Lilly Savage on stage!!

[@Kaz741]

Classic. Barbara is fantastic and Paul is brilliant

[@stevecallum7933]

God I miss Lilly Savage. Pure drag genius. Babs wasn't bad either 😋😂🤣

[@CJ-hg9cs]

Same here. Lilly was just comedy gold before there were a zillion wannabes on tv. The talk shows she used to go on in the early 90's made the shows watchable. Good times.

[@johnalbert5187]

Lily popped prince Harry's cherry 🍒

[@djmuffy8934]

GOD bless you Paul, dogs worldwide have howled at your loss! (And you can bet for DAMN sure he knew EVERY single word of the lyrics)

[@healgrowlovecommunity8397]

This had me in tears. I've just finished reading the third and final part of Paul's autobiography - I read the first two years ago and saw the third in our library last week. He was such a lovely man - success came to him quite late in life and his journey to the top is so interesting, eye opening and hilarious. He was such a hard worker and writes so well too. I miss him even more now. RIP Paul xxx

[@kenmacdougall]

Comedy genius … Barbara played along so well.

[@janicemclelland1070]

Darling Lil, a legend, you are so missed xxxx

[@lyndamorris3066]

I love this 💗.Lily Savage at her best. We will all miss you Paul. X

[@barrycoomer8137]

What a great sport ! Paul was such a great entertainer. Will be very sadly missed.

[@krakatoa1200]

Great Fun,, I think Barbara looks like Agent Scully here.

[@herrhallmackenreuter4140]

krakatoa1200 ...but where is Mulder

[@DistantCousin]

Well, it was the mid 90's! LOL

[@lucyllewellyn2850]

Yeah it's the hair.

[@williamcruzdeleon3814]

Yes that came first in my mind she looked like Dana Scully of the X files pretty

[@moow950]

She is in disguise!! 😆

[@DMDBOTH]

Love Lily and love Barbara Dixon❤️❤️

[@justintai8725]

I wonder how spontaneous th8s really was. It's a brilliantly executed comedy song and Barbara was sensational too❤ rest in peace Lily ❤❤❤
