Sir Leslie Colin Patterson is a fictional character created and portrayed by Australian comedian Barry Humphries. Patterson is obese, lecherous and offensive. His typical stage costume includes a tangle of hair, makeup suggesting an alcoholic's rosacea, grotesque teeth, a loud tie, a shirt covered with food stains, and padded pants that indicate an enormous penis.
