Dame Edna putting Boris Johnson to the sword is a fabulously entertaining watch with a devastating payoff
This week it will be the turn of former prime minister Boris Johnson to give evidence to the Covid inquiry, and a very fascinating, troubling, and infuriating two days it promises to be.
The Guardian has helpfully compiled a list of the key questions he is likely to face.
And we mention him because his forthcoming appearance sent this old clip from the Dame Edna Everage chat show viral again and it’s a fabulously entertaining watch with an absolutely devastating payoff.

RIP the great Barry Humphries. And here are just a few of the things people said about it over on Twitter.
Wowser! Edna got his measure… and he looks genuinely mystified at having the piss taken out of him…

Barry H at his total best. I was in the studio for this recording, around 2005. He annihilated Johnson, while also making a very stern prediction. https://t.co/G0dy67UDsB
