R.I.P Paul O’Grady. Thanks for all the laughter over the years and for your compassion towards animals,you will be truly missed. Definitely gone way too soon😢😢😢
Paul was the funniest, most caring person this planet could have ever been blessed with. Thanks for all the charity work and laughs over the years, you will be missed x
So many gems from him during that performance! I loved his joke about how he'd be "worrying sheep" by showing his latest electricity bill to them and they'd be like, "Ohhh, how you gonna pay that, Lil?!" 🤣The delivery is quality. Daft, but so funny! 🤣
It makes me want to cry for some weird reason, when they sung i know him so well like it made me think how good he was gonna be in panto this year in annie
Sheer genius! Quick witted, talented and with an exquisite delivery. RIP Lily - you were & will always be a true one off & you will forever shine brightly 🌟💔
I grew up watching paul, but since he denied to come on Uk drag race I have become interested in lily, because ru paul is awful for the queer community and I am glad to see someone stood up to the transphobe.
I used to foster dogs for Battersea and will never forget Paul coming to my house to name some puppies I was looking after, watched this when I was younger never knowing lily would be in my lounge years later
Thank you soooo much for posting this. I've never forgotten that final song ' A Lamp Post Attached to My Mac'..and never found it till now. What a genius he was back then. And we were still yet to find out what a truly kind hearted and beautiful human being he was. The world is a much sadder place without Paul now. You will be missed more than you'll ever know because you were loved more than you ever knew. Rest easy now Paul xxx
Paul, thank you for sharing your craft, all your charity work, the wonderful memories and laughs. You were one of a kind and will never be forgotten, RIP
The character is so well formed and believable you can almost forget it's Paul O'Grady underneath all the makeup, still just as funny after all these years as well
OMG...the duet with Barbara Dixon...I had tears running down my face. What an amazing performer Lily was .....lots of the younger American Queens in Drag Race could learn a lot from her.
How? Lily Savage is not a drag queen. Its a character a fully created character that at no points refers to being a man a neither do guests because Lily Savage is a woman
@@tarync6539 you mean like all drag performers ever never references they’re a cock in a frock. Lily Savage is a dick in a dress, it’s a man playing a female character, Paul O’Grady doesn’t need to acknowledge that in every performance cos everyone knows when a man cosplays as a woman ? 🤔
Love Paul O’Grady - such a kind man who does so much charity work for dogs. I live on the Isle of Skye too - born here, lives here all my 43 years and have raised my 3 kids here. They’ve all left home now and one is down in middle England. It’s true that it’s always pissing down but I love it. It’d be amazing if I ever saw Paul up here - I’d give him a massive hug to thank him for all he does for charity and his kindness. He’s a truly wonderful person 👍🏻❤️🏴
I met Paul in the 80s, he came to a club I worked in and did his Lily savage act, great guy(did you know he used to be a social worker back in the day)
I’d forgotten just how funny he was . Such a talent , I’ve been in tears watching these old shows .,he was wonderful as Lily and as himself ❤ he’ll be so missed
So sad about Paul's passing. I was lucky to see Lily live many times before he became famous. He's left a great legacy of comedy, there won't be another like him.
With oyt ANY tv adds 😮I only hope In the weeks to coms we can have at least a 3 hour show with lily + Paul Ogrady without.the adds sheer BLISS RIP our very own Paul o Grady ❤❤❤
Absolutely adored Paul/Lily if you have never read her books 📚 please do they are the funniest I have read, and all about her life, so true and heartwarming. Fly high with the Angels Paul, keep them laughing in heaven. Xx
Frightening to see how young people are! I remember Paul in about 1993 in a pub and forget how many years ago it is! Just feel very thrilled about how much he has achieved since then. Really superb performer as "Lily" but a genuinely clever and decent chap.
Amazing. I had forgotten how good Lilly was. I loved the last song about being attached to a lamp post!!!! All the celebs looked so young (especially Robbie) but then looking at the date it was 27yrs ago.
First time I have seen this performer. I am from the other side of the pond - American and I have enjoyed this immensely. It’s wonderful seeing all the stars in the audience. We were all younger back then.
Remember seeing Lily when he still played the bars in the early 90s and appeared at some of those great Pride events. Suddenly his career took off with some live shows, TV appears and his career really took off. A real talent
I'm very sad I never went back and appreciated Lily after I grew to love drag. 10 minutes in and I'm crying laughing what a truly great comic and advocate of animal rights you will be missed
Lily Savage you could serious watch this artist at work all day never get tired, you would never be fed up all it will lead to is a constant stream of tears from all the laughing you do. The talents of Paul O’Grady will never be seen again and I hope wherever you are now Paul/Lily you are enjoying yourself, you’re gone but definitely not forgotten. Rock it up there with Cilla and Barbara
This has made my night! The best thing I've watched tonight (and I've watched a lot!). Plus, so many celebrities appreciating Paul's Lily :) Was especially pleased to spot Brian May in the audience! :D
O'grady, a man who totally gets the lower working class life. honestly, Lily could have been any one of around 3 or 4 aunt's on my mother's side, growing up in the east midlands. Just how she talks, what she says and how she says it, the things she knows about life in council estate kind of stuff, it's just spot on.
Unfortunately these days working class comedians and entertainers struggle to get a look in on British TV (reality "stars" don't count). Genuine talent doesn't have a chance to shine through unless you come from a priviliged background and Mummy and Daddy can support your rise to fame.
I know this comment is a year on..but Paul grew up down the road from me, his Auntie was well known as a clippie on the buses round Birkenhead and that's who he based the lilly character on, apparently she was very blonde and glam. He's got the natural Merseyside wit.
@@DistantCousin Exactly!Jack Whitehall springs to mind.The closest we have to working class is mickey flannigan and up here in Scotland we have Kevin Bridges and Frankie boyle.Apart from that i cant really think of any1.No1 decent anyway
I used to watch Lily Savage as a child and cackle with laughter, I didn't get most of the jokes back then but he's just so funny naturally, he could read a menu and it'd have made me laugh. It's a treat to go back and watch Lily. RIP Paul, I'm shocked and saddened by his death 😥💖
Absolute comedy gold! Remember watching this on the telly but I understand 80% more of the gags now 😂 Probably couldn't air it on mainstream nowadays. Spot on lilly x
went to school with paul , and we both went to live in london about the same time . i remember him starting the lili act in the vauxhall tavern , and elephant and castle pub .
Skippy the Bush Kangaroo as Norma Desmond is genius. Also, that last song. The surreal stuff was just as brilliant as the ‘anecdotes’. I missed Lily Savage when she was retired, and we’ll miss Paul O’Grady even more. Such a loss. Rest easy Paul.
Never met him, but felt this one. I remember watching this when it was first televised. Sitting here now, watching it again, laughing out loud. So sad that we will never see him again. Cheered when he did the duet with Barbara Dickson.I really think it was a surprise to her (what a trouper). RIP ❤
Being in Australia l had never seen Lily Savage but did see Paul in the love of dogs this last year. Yes he was a great performer. I love watching all his skits. RIP and my condolences to his family and friends.
Fabulous. I'm sure Paul/Lily could tour and do very well. His comedic timing and delivery are razor sharp. And there's little Buster at the end - now on the other side of the rainbow bridge, with Olga 😢
I’m here in 2024, watching a legend. Someone who shaped my life. Who influenced my drag and helped me laugh at life. Paul, however, taught me to love, be empathetic and realise the sheer joy dogs can give. I miss you my friend. RIP, your light shines brighter than most x ❤
R.I.P Paul O' Grady i was lucky enough to see you twice in the pantomime (Cinderella and Goldilocks) at the London Palladium! You and Julian Clary were absolutely hysterical and you both had me and my mum in stitches! I feel so lucky that i saw you and i adored you and Malcolm on your radio 2 show (with you shouting at your beloved dogs to behave!) and i will miss you so much. I was in tears when i heard the news at 4 in the morning. You deserved to live until 100 and you should have been knighted. Thanks for all you did for the animals too.
R.I.P Paul O’Grady. Thanks for all the laughter over the years and for your compassion towards animals,you will be truly missed. Definitely gone way too soon😢😢😢
Paul o’grady the only celebrity i was genuinely tearing over 😢
Devastated much love rip sue
There will never be anyone like him he was amazing
Totally agree 👏👏👏👏
Not my cup of tea but god bless anyway
Not even 10 minutes in and just looking at the people that have turned up for Paul. You realise that this guy was a legend among legends. RIP Paul.
and Diana as well wow, it hasnt sunk in yet and i dont think it will for a long time if ever, tbh
Even the "guest who didn't want to be recognised" lmao x probably why she ended in a car in France as lily would tell us the story! 😂😂❤️
Eat your heart out RuPaul et al. Lily still is the funniest queen ever.
Agree totally
Sexier too 🤣🤣
None have ever come close, Lily was my first and last!
@@wunaladreaming5472 RuPaul isn't a comedy queen lol
The kindest and sincere person,too
Paul was the funniest, most caring person this planet could have ever been blessed with. Thanks for all the charity work and laughs over the years, you will be missed x
Beautifully put 😢
Very well said

Just like her nylons!😂
RIP Paul O'Grady.....entertainer, animal lover and campaigner.......what a legacy.
Lily Savage, just genius. Thanks Paul for the laughs, may you rest in peace xx
I listened to Paul on a Sunday evening and found it such a good distraction from life's nonsense.x
RIP 🌺
Paul O'Grady is a genius. To be able to create such a character as Lily Savage. Pure genius
Named after his mum
@@SGuy889 ?
Watching this just a few days after he died… his talent knew no bounds! So sad he couldn’t stay with us all longer. Fabulous man! Xx
Who is watching during the pandemic 2020??? I am having a blast !!! Good times always Lili Savage..
Me
... me too. Love’re

RIP Paul. Always loved and always hysterical - reunited now with your beloved Buster. A heartbreaking loss.
It's been about 10 years since I last saw this and I remember almost every line. He was so sharp and quick . God rest you Paul. X

Spontaneous hilarity! Brilliant! This performance is the best tribute imaginable. Already much missed. ❤x
Rest in peace Paul, thank you for all the laughs and the work for animals
From the cold, hard acerbic Lily to the genuine warmth that is Paul O'Grady. This guy is a legend
curlyjim2550 I agree he’s Lily’s awsome
I agree !!!!! There is no denying him a place with the other Royals of Comedy !!!!!!!! Such a Great Entertainer and Performer !!!!!!
Paul had his sharp moments too.
Amazing. I had forgotten how good Lilly was. I loved the last song about being attached to a lamp post!!!! All the celebs looked so young (especially Robbie) but then looking at the date it was 27yrs ago.
Lily is hilarious and Barbara Dickson has a very beautiful voice with perfect pitch.
Barbara is an incredible vocalist. Effortless
Tearsfor the laughter, tears for the loss. Thank you Paul for everything you were.
Had tears in my eyes watching this tonight. What a fantastically funny man & such a beautiful soul. Paul you will be missed by millions ❤
Rest in Peace, our Lily. You were the best and a national treasure and will be sorely missed.
So well respected and loved. Dear Paul, may you rest in peace x
Comedy was waaaaaaay better back then! Loved this, thanks for uploading.... :)

RIP Paul. A handsome man, a beautiful Lily Savage, devoted to animals and so quick witted. You’ll be greatly missed xxxx
'Lamp post attached to my Mac' is just genius. RIP Paul/Lily - such an unbelievable talent.
First time I have seen this performer. I am from the other side of the pond - American and I have enjoyed this immensely. It’s wonderful seeing all the stars in the audience. We were all younger back then.
Hi Aidan, Have a look for Lily Savage and Michael Parkinson interview, you're in for a treat.
Aidah, bloody autocorrect 😂
You can't beat a bit of Lily savage Aidah she was one of the best , and you're right 24 years ago we were ALL a lot younger 🤣🤣 . Take care XX

Such an amazing man, we lost a good one, when he passed. RIP Paul. ❤️🙏🏽😔
i found Lily on YT by accident, and I am so glad I did! I have not laughed so much for a very long time.

I think its fabulous that Gabby Roslin has maintained the same hairstyle for 20 years. Credit to her.
Fckin hell Gaby you look rough..hilarious

The way Lily had her wetting herself laughing, though. xD
I fancied her then and I fancy her today !
Lily is head and shoulders above the acts on Drag Race
2021, all stars and remembered. Couldn't name hardly any new stars today! Everything seemed so much better back then...
Discovered her only yesterday, bingewatching now. She's great! 😂🤣😅
Came to spend some time with Lily. A sad day today RIP Paul, , you’ll be missed. Lovely man. xxxxxx
Absolute comedy gold!
Remember watching this on the telly but I understand 80% more of the gags now 😂
Probably couldn't air it on mainstream nowadays. Spot on lilly x
They do repeat some of them.. saw a Bob Monkhouse earlier in the year..
went to school with paul , and we both went to live in london about the same time . i remember him starting the lili act in the vauxhall tavern , and elephant and castle pub .
What was he like at school?
Skippy the Bush Kangaroo as Norma Desmond is genius. Also, that last song. The surreal stuff was just as brilliant as the ‘anecdotes’. I missed Lily Savage when she was retired, and we’ll miss Paul O’Grady even more. Such a loss. Rest easy Paul.
I needed a good laugh. Looks like I had to back 23 years to have it this time.
wow didn't realize this just watching this show now an amazing person
Devastated to have to say RIP Paul :( I had this on VHS before I was 10 even, used to play it on repeat. :(
Wonderful, I laughed til tears ran down my legs, thank you for showing this.
I have used that line too lol

A genuinely nice person. His kindness to animals will always be remembered. ❤️ 🕊️ 🙏
Out of all those celebrities the one you just love to see and miss. Nana from The Royale Family, the Queen of Sheba herself.
