Close friends of late comedian Barry Humphries have opened up about his remarkable career and revisited one of the darkest periods of the comedy icon’s life.

Author Kathy Lette was Humphries’ neighbour in London for decades and considers the late star her “favourite person”.

“He turned up at my house one morning and he’d be hammering on the door wanting a drink.
