46:14Now PlayingBarry Humphries was a legend of the screen and stage, but throughout his career, he remained astonished at the success of Dame Edna and her enduring appeal.
Barry, the sharp-eyed observer of the strangeness of Australian suburbia, wrote his own memoirs during his life.
And in 2009, he finally decided to tackle the (unauthorised) biography of Dame Edna, called simply Handling Edna. That's when this conversation with Richard Fidler was first published.
Barry died peacefully in Sydney in April 2023, aged 89.
