A fictional character developed from a comic strip in Private Eye magazine for the big screen by Barry Humphries (who you would probably know as Dame Edna Everage).

They made 2 movies (Barry McKenzie holds his own / The Adventures of Barry McKenzie) both of which starred Barry Crocker as Barry McKenzie.

In a nutshell 'Barry McKenzie' was a pom hating ocker type who came to England and saw exactly what it was like here. The movies, although designed to be 'tongue in cheek' were written by Humphries and loosely based on his own experiences of living in Pommieland in the 1960's

And as an Aussie over here in the 'naughties' I can confirm Humphries experiences of England are more accurate than most of you would care to believe!

And the characters he plays are an accurate representation of Australians - even down to the cross-dressing granny.

Barry McKenzie would like to inform you a 'Donk' is actually a car engine

In England thats usually about 1100 cc and pushes out 25 bhp

Donk is also a character in Crocodile Dundee. That's where i've got it from. When i see your posts, all i can see is Donk.

Thats the spit of my sister

So are you coming down Jumbucks for a Dimmie?

You will love 'em

It's tempting but i never travel down South. I holiday in Bath once a year (that's a place) and that's as far as i can go without needing quality northern air.

I guessed you meant the place not the item thats all too frequently never filled with hot soapy water by the poms

Bath is a great place actually. I was there last year.

Seriously mate if you are ever in Shepherds Bush treat yourself to a Dimmie or 2. Very overpriced in England (because they are imported frozen) but very very tasty.
