I know I read that 16 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: he's ninety four years old. His real name is doctor 17 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 1: John Knight. Because you can't use your actual name when 18 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: you're a TV medic. 19 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:49,520 Speaker 2: That was back in the days. 20 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: That's right now, you can't. 21 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 2: Are you sure about that? 22 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: I don't think you can know doctor Karen Phillips.

You had to live under a pseudonym. 26 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 2: You couldn't be as you say. 27 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: If you're in the media, could because it was illegal 28 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 1: for you to advertise yourself as a medical person. 29 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 2: I would have gone with doctor pseudonym. 30 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: Would doctor Sueham. But when I was a segment producer 31 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: on the Midday Show, my first one of my first 32 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 1: TVs in jobs in TV, i'd work to Simon Townsan's Wonderorld. 33 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: Then I went to the mid Day Show as a 34 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: producer and I was his producer for his mail bag segments, 35 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: and whenever he came on the show, I looked after 36 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: him and he was the loveliest man. He was so 37 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: and I knew nothing, and he was so nice to me. 38 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 1: He was so charming, so generous, so self effacing, and 39 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: really he brought big, difficult medical issues to an audience 40 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: in Australia who didn't know this stuff. He'd speak about, 41 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: you know, we make jokes about your bot, but he 42 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: actually spoke about downstairs, so all kinds of stuff with 43 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: no embarrassment because that's his job as a doctor. 44 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 2: Because he worked for Cleo as well, didn't. 45 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: Well, Yes, we first started as a journalist and then 46 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: he studied medicine and he got a job as a 47 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: local GP in a New South Wales rural town. He 48 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: was the only doctor for over one hundred and sixty 49 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: kilometers around, so he was pretty much the obstetrician, the surgeon, 50 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 1: the counselor the pharmacist, the local vet. He was all 51 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: those things. And so when he went to write for 52 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: the Women's Weekly, for Cleo for Women's Day, he had 53 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: a wealth of knowledge and a wealth of understanding about 54 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 1: classic Australians. So when he joined the Mike Walsh Show, 55 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: initially on TV and then the Midday Show where I 56 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: met him, he became such a popular guy because of 57 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: his lovely nature. But as I said, he was able 58 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: to introduce difficult topics in a really lovely way. 59 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 2: Is the original hipster. As well, he brought us all 60 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 2: the information about Celiac disease long before anyone else. 61 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 3: Now the disease is called Celiac disease and intolerance of 62 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 3: the body to the gluten or the protein factor of wheat, barley, 63 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 3: and right now, this part of the protein gluten and eaten. 64 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 3: It irritates the small bell where the food's absorbed, causes diarrhea, flashlence, horrible, 65 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 3: blurd and fearly very unpleasant, and the treatment is you 66 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 3: simply stop eating gluten. 67 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 2: By the way, that was me doing an impersonation. 68 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: Well look, I hope he would see his homage that 69 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: he's checking bots in heaven. He wrote his autobiography when 70 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: he was eighty nine years old. 71 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 2: If you're going to heaven, you're not going to go 72 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 2: and check. 73 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: He's a helper wherever he is. 74 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 2: I'd like to know you want to take some time off, 75 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 2: play a harp, something. 76 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: To my heart for a day, and then whatever you 77 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: feel like doing. He will be missed. I know John absolutely, 78 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: his children, great grandchildren, all of them were thinking of you.
