The multiple personalities of Barry Humphries AO CBE, and other characters devised by him.
Wikipedia: Dame Edna Everage.
- Originally conceived as a dowdy Moonee Ponds housewife who caricatured Australian suburban complacency and insularity, Dame Edna Everage has evolved over four decades to become a satire of stardom – a gaudily dressed, acid-tongued, egomaniacal, internationally fêted Housewife "Gigastar".
Wikipedia : Sir Les Patterson.
- Obese, lecherous and offensive, Patterson is Dame Edna Everage's exact opposite: she is female, refined, Protestant and from Melbourne; he is male, uncouth, Roman Catholic and from Sydney.
Wikipedia: Sandy Stone.
- Humphries describes Sandy, originally called Dusty, as an "elderly, childless man" living in the suburbs of Melbourne.
- Described by John Betjeman as "this decent man from the suburbs", Stone is one of Humphries' more enduring characters.
While not a character played by Humphries, the character "Barrington Bradman Bing McKenzie" was a product of his fertile and often outrageous imagination. Originating as a comic strip character in the British satirical magazine Private Eye, Barry "Bazza" McKenzie was brought to the large screen by singer, television personality, character actor, and variety entertainer Barry Crocker.
