Queen’s funeral made a big impression on comedian Barry Humphries, aka Dame Edna Everage. ‘I told my family not to go to quite so much trouble,’ the 88-year-old Australian says of his own demise. ‘But if they insist, they may.’ Humphries was given a bottle of champagne as a thank-you present by the charity Lord’s Taverners for speaking at a tribute lunch at Lord’s cricket ground yesterday for chat show host Sir Michael Parkinson. ‘A perfect gift for a teetotaller,’ says Humphries, who hasn’t had a drink for nearly 50 years after a battle with the booze.
