Emily Perry (28 June 1907 – 19 February 2008) was an English actress and dancer.
Born in Torquay, Devon, England, she is best known for her recurring role as Madge Allsop, Dame Edna Everage's long-suffering, silent "bridesmaid" from Palmerston North, New Zealand; she began playing the role at the age of 80.
Perry ran a children's dancing school, The Patricia Perry Academy of Dancing, for twenty five years. As an actress in her own right, her filmography is limited to her appearances with Dame Edna, except for a 1995 appearance, in her late eighties, on an episode of "Last of the Summer Wine" as "Mrs. Broadbent". She appeared as herself in "Night of a Thousand Faces" (2001).
She retired in 2004 and took up residence in Brinsworth House, London Borough of Richmond.
She died on February 19, 2008 in Twickenham, Greater London, England, aged 100.
