RIP Lily Savage you fabulous loud-mouthed, Birkenhead drag queen. So many fantastic memories. So many hilarious performances. His eight-year residency at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern was a must in the 1980s. He would say the unsayable. Tell it how it is. So many great one-liners. A man with a big heart. You will be missed.
And his best one-liner? Back when the Met stormed into the RVT for it being a gay bar, all wearing rubber gloves to “protect” themselves during the HIV crisis, on stage Lily immediately quipped “Looks like we have help with the washing up!”
