Melbourne housewife superstar Dame Edna Everage (Barry Humphries) is invited to Moonee Ponds' centenary celebrations. Served a pizza that has been named in her honour, she exclaims 'scrummy!' and then proceeds to mime revulsion for the camera! Fans wave gladdies (gladiolus flowers) in her honour.
This story comes from a library reel of Eyewitness News stories broadcast in August 1981.
