The Dame Edna Experience

Following two hit 'Audiences with Dame Edna', LWT persuaded Australia's housewife megastar to front this hilarious chat show. Aided by her downtrodden bridesmaid Madge Allsopp, Edna took great delight in teasing and even humiliating her guests, who included Jeffrey Archer, Larry Hagman, Charlton Heston and Jason Donovan. There were two series, one in 1987 and another two years later. This is the opening of the first show (12/09/87) which guested Mary Whitehouse, Cliff Richard and Sean Connery. Edna's theme, The Niceness Song was performed by Laurie Holloway and his band, while Robin Houston was on voice-over duty again.
