News this week, Possums, that Dame Edna is staying faithful to her Australian roots in the choice of her new theme music for "The Dame Edna Treatment", ITV's new series set for this spring.
While steering away from a Rolf Harris didgeridoo tune (that would have been a little bit yucky!), she has asked Gibb brothers Robin and Barry Gibb to write the new theme music! This will mark the first time the brothers Gibb have made a foray into television music, so we can't wait to hear the result. Will we be lucky enough to hear Dame Edna singing the theme tune herself? She is, of course, known around the world for her voice (among a never-ending list of glittering talents). It's said that she taught little Kylie everything she knows.
We'd also like to send congratulations this week to Dame Helen Mirren on her recent Oscar win. She'll be thanking her lucky stars, won't she... After all, they begged Dame Edna to take the role of her good friend Lillibet, but she turned them down, of course, and said "Give it to Helen Mirren - she needs the work". Dame Edna's selfless devotion to those less fortunate than herself is to be admired, isn't it? It's also rumoured, Possums, that the gown Dame Helen wore for the big event was, in fact, not a Christian Lacroix, but a Kenny Everage original. What do you think?
