Dame Edna with a Hint of Chrome?

You little darlings!

We all know that Dame Edna Everage is giver. She's a humanitarian. She's a healer. After all, theatre ushers the world over have found countless sticks and zimmer frames left behind after her legendary shows. She has a gift, it has to be said.

And so it is no surprise that the little non-entities in Cambridge were thrilled by the recent appearance of Edna at an open day at one of their hospitals!


Dame Edna graced the proceedings as the good people of Cambridge joined her in a look behind the scenes at the workings of the city's hospital facilities. There might have even been a little probing...

No doubt there were a few laughs along the way. As Edna always says, she stays healthy thanks to a large dose of Vitamin L - laughter. Yes, she's always been able to laugh at the misfortune of others, and it keeps her going every day!

So it's no great surprise that it was with a joyous heart that she bestowed a little of the Gigastar glamour on the folks of Cambridge. How thrilled those little institutionalised non-entities must have been to be blessed by a visit from Edna! The very memory of her caring and sharing will unquestionably have a miraculous healing effect in the days and months to come!!

We wonder if this hospital visit brought back any painful memories of her dearly departed Norm? Norm was, of course, the world's first internationally known prostate sufferer...and always had a hint of chrome about him. In tribute to his memory, Dame Edna is now Chairwoman of the Friends of the Prostate, and is always happy to give them a hand....to further their cause of course (don't twist my words!).
