Sad news,saw him at a London theatre around 79. Really good night
Sad to hear, although he has been poorly. He was a rare beast - a genuine polymath it seems.
Some lovely clips & tributes on twitter. He’ll be sorely missed for his wit and for having punctured a few egos over the years.

That makes me properly sad. He was a great character.
His Sir Les Patterson is the stuff of legend

The Les Patterson Joan Collins joke is worth looking up!

I saw him live in the eighties and remember thinking he was way sharper, darker, more subversive and downright funnier than the so called alternative comedians of the time. A legend for sure.

There was much criticism of this character in his home country of Australia which, for a time, banned the sale of a book of the strips. Humphries would receive similar criticism for his character of the lecherous, hard drinking Sir Les Patterson.
He was happy to return the compliment. “Australia is an outdoor country,” he once said. “People only go inside to use the toilet. And that’s a recent development.”
