The figure on the drum heads for Morrissey's current tour is British comedian MRS SHUFFLEWICK, who died in 1983. Only one live clip of Mrs Shufflewick is known to exist. Thought to have been filmed in the 1970s, the clip is presently available on You Tube.

Rex Jameson (né Coster; c.11 June 1924 – 5 March 1983) was a British comedian and female impersonator known for his creation and stage persona Mrs Shufflewick. After radio and television success in the 1950s and early 1960s, his career declined sharply because of his alcohol abuse. He returned to a niche celebrity in the 1970s in his drag act at The Black Cap, Camden Town, London.
