Special guest star Dame Edna Everage
with Madeleine Orr, Betty Turner, Joyce Windsor and Joan Bakewell
and The Nigel Lythgoe Dancers

'As sweet as a Strawberry Pavlova, as strong as a Holt's Hoist; her voice would charm the kookaburras from the trees.' With this chorus of praise ringing in her ears and recently honoured for her services to Australian culture, Edna Everage returns to what she graciously calls 'this sceptered isle' to make a little pilgrimage to Shakespeare's birthplace and to reveal the secrets of life with her Norm, in a unique TV interview.
