Also to be fair to Les
He is about the only impressionist I can think of who sounds like himself but doing a slightly funny voice that sounds vaguely like someone you know but can't quite put your finger on...

Him, and Alistair McGowan, who not only sounds like Alistair putting on a slightly funny voice that sounds vaguely like someone you know but can't quite put your finger on, but also looks incredibly like Alistair McGowan pretending to be someone else and failing miserably because it still looks like Alistair McGowan dressed up.

They think flaring their nostrils makes them good impersonators
It's all about the fucking nostrils and the shocked expression with the pair of them.

Let's face it, Dustin Gee was miles better than Les.
In fact he still is, despite being dead for 25 years.

when i was 19
alistair mcgowan asked me out in front of the whole of the comedy store.

i should have gone, but given the location and his fame, it did occur to me that he might have been taking the piss!

And his nostrils, rach, his nostrils.

he was doing stand-up then though
i remember no nostrils, even though i was on the front row. that fat bloke john something also asked me to have a drink with him in the bar. it was utterly humiliating because he said to the audience "this girl on the front row in the purple shirt [it was the late 90's, ok?] is stunning, lads". and my then boyfriend oswald, who fancied himself as a bit of a comedian himself, promptly yelled out, "HE'S LYING!" and the whole room pissed themselves at my expense.

wonder why i didn't marry that one...

because he was called Oswald, and well you know it.

well
he wasn't reeeeeally called oswald.

but it sounds a bit like it and it was just as pretentious on his parents' part, given that they were from fucking bedford!
