  • Dressing in drag is nothing new. Men have been dressing as women for centuries to gain a laugh. But Dick Emery (1915 - 1983) was the first TV icon to become legendary for it. The picture quality is poor as this VHS recording was made when Emery's series was briefly revived around 1995 on Australian television. At that time, TV in Oz was still analog with a square 4:3 picture and our reception of Network Ten was not the best. Even so, Dick's humour shines through and he'd be gratified to think that he is still admired and remembered so many decades later. Especially when so many comic tryhards since his time have sunk without a trace.

    I suppose a lot of people would say 'Good riddance to bad rubbish' but I liked him then and I like him now. Like Benny Hill, he still makes me laugh out loud.

      I love Dick Emery and watched his show when I lived in UK many years ago. That one lady character "OH YOU ARE AWFUL, BUT I LIKE YOU has stayed with me for many years (and still gives me good laughs even today). You never forget a great comedian. Very few good comedians. Thank God for UA-cam and all the good people that post these excellent old comedy shows.

    Dick Emery reminds me of a comedian called Jimmy Young from the seventies who did VERY similar characters based on the people over here in Northern Ireland. Having said that his comedy was the type of comedy that a person had to live in Northern Ireland in that era to understand why it was funny. Did anyone else notice that the husband in the doctor's waiting room was the actor Bill Teacher who played Arthur Fowler in EastEnders?
