What's with all the critcism of Tammy? - she is the perfect foil here for Sir Les. They make a wonderful couple. LOVE Les.

Dont worry! and threw me some gladys! Brillient!

Humphreys is such a clever comic, lightning fast thought and brilliant delivery. I think he must have despaired over this entirely thick interviewer who is completely out of her depth. But he remains gentle and courteous with her, and gets through it: what a trouper! Met him once at lunch in HK in the late 70's, when he was appearing at the Mandarin Hotel in a cabaret turn. I recall he appeared through the audience at the start of his act as Sir Les, and took the place by storm. Offstage he was as funny and clever as when appearing professionally, it's now almost 50 years ago, but I remember being in constant gales of laughter. A comedy genius.

Bit late with a comment for you old mate, I don't know if a lot of people knew that Sir Les was born with a peculiar defect in the trouser department,a lot of women and men too I suppose,had varied reactions to noticing his massive cock,(sorry, no other words do it justice), from Parkinson's show with Jackie Weaver when she notices,a different time,but she was an Aussie as well,he talks about his defect with shame, hilarious.🇦🇺👍

Michael Parkinson worked very well with Sir Les. As other commentators here have pointed out, this girl is not ideal for the Australian Cultural Attachè. (She is attractive though. Like her slightly raw voice.)
