Really 0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:42.040 key parts of it have not been finished. Like we're 0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:44.560 in the bathroom. We go, this is beautiful, this is great. 0:02:44.800 --> 0:02:46.680 Oh wait, there's no toilet roll. 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:51.120 Hold. Oh no, you need a toilet role, especially me 0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:55.600 in my house with his low fiber diet. Right. They 0:02:55.639 --> 0:03:00.560 also don't have a towel rack. It's mid renov No, 0:03:00.639 --> 0:03:02.560 it's been finished. It's done. They would put it on 0:03:02.600 --> 0:03:05.800 the market. So they were like, tada, it's done with 0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:06.720 all these things missing. 0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:09.160 Yes, some guy has flipped it. So he's clearly trying 0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:10.959 to get a cash grab. So he'slipped the house. It's 0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:11.560 very well done. 0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:12.680 What do you mean flip it. 0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:15.519 Like he buys buys an old house, renovates it, and 0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:19.760 then flips it for a profit or rents anyway, the 0:03:19.880 --> 0:03:22.440 microwave in the couple of the microwave is too small 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:23.640 to fit an actual microwave. 0:03:24.520 --> 0:03:26.920 Oh god, so is it too late to pull out 0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:29.000 or you're definitely doing it.

It went for eighteen minutes. 0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:15.880 Graham Kennedy also dead. 0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:18.720 Grand Caney long gone, Yeah, died two thousand and four. 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:21.280 But they were like, you know, Mitchell and Mitchell, they 0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:24.880 had their own TV show together. They were beloved. He 0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:27.960 opened the show and it was strong, a good bit 0:09:28.000 --> 0:09:30.199 of gear from Bert. Don't forget he's only he's eighty 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:32.160 seventy nine years old here, So this is how the 0:09:32.200 --> 0:09:32.840 show opened. 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:44.360 That's that's absolutely wonderful and good night, honey, good good joke. 0:09:44.440 --> 0:09:46.199 He walked off the stage. Everyone was laughing. 0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:48.440 Do you know what, I'm going to ruin this for everyone? 0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:51.560 But you know what I just remembered. Was also controversial 0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:55.720 about that Logi's night Everyone online with writing complaints about 0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:58.520 the fact that you could hear the cutlery crown. You 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:00.960 can hear the knives and forks and the plates all 0:10:01.200 --> 0:10:03.320 cluttering around the whole time. So I'm not going to 0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:05.760 ruin Bert's speech, but like Avely now, you won't be 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.000 able to unhear it. There were so many complaints coming 0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:09.520 from people watching this on live TV. 0:10:09.720 --> 0:10:11.880 You and I included Mitch, I were right at the 0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:13.200 back with the Studio ten crew. 0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:14.240 It was probably how Cot. 0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:19.040 Anyway, this is his first real joke and that the 0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:22.200 vibe was set and people were enjoying it. So what's 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:24.280 the problem his first Joe, I'll get there, don't you work? 0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:25.720 I want to want talk ill of him, so I'm 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:27.120 giving you some of his good gear before we get 0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:28.880 the ship stuff. This is a good joke. 0:10:29.360 --> 0:10:31.360 One of the crews said, you know, you're the oldest 0:10:31.360 --> 0:10:35.400 presenter on the stage tonight, which is a good start. 0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:38.719 But I think, really, I think I might be the 0:10:39.120 --> 0:10:40.760 warm up for the memoriams. 0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:43.640 That's the back. 0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:47.560 And this is where it took a turn for the 0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:51.520 worst and really showed the gap since he's been on 0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:53.559 television last It had been a long time since he'd 0:10:53.600 --> 0:10:55.800 been back on TV, and this was the joke that 0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:58.120 caused most of the negative headlines. 0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:03.000 Of course, I'm here for the Graham Kennedy Award of 0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:06.680 our most Popular New Talent, and that's a look out 0:11:07.200 --> 0:11:10.120 on the audience. So I've got to be honest. There 0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:13.480 are many faces that I know from the screen but 0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:17.120 don't know them personally. And if you might feel the 0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:20.000 same way, you know, what's you know, where's the soul 0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:22.920 puff come from? 0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:27.160 Oh my god, I do remember that? And you had 0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:29.200 just come out of the closet. I think at this 0:11:29.200 --> 0:11:31.079 point in time, when we're at the Logans, you'd come 0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:33.160 out to me and a couple of other close friends, 0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:36.240 but not everyone. And so when he said the P word, 0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:38.920 we're allowed to say it, we can say poof. We 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:42.320 just looked at each other like, areoth to be offended 0:11:42.320 --> 0:11:43.000 by this? Yeah? 0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:44.920 About three weeks before I wouldn't have been offended, but 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:46.760 that night I was like, I'm so offended. 0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:50.240 I'm a queer man. I think that Burt Newton can 0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:53.400 use gay slers. I give him permission. He's a legend. 0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:54.800 Yeah I can say poff. 0:11:54.880 --> 0:11:57.800 He's very felly ambuoyant, isn't he He's a bit he's 0:11:57.880 --> 0:11:59.840 very camp the way he delivers his lines. 0:12:00.360 --> 0:12:04.040 Not really, he's got a very animated voice. Yeah he does. Yeah, 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:06.600 you're right. Does it get worse than that? Well? 0:12:06.920 --> 0:12:09.880 This is people were offside the audience was a bit awkward. 0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:12.439 He was funny one last time before the final kicker, 0:12:12.440 --> 0:12:14.760 So I'll give you the last bit of comedy goal 0:12:14.800 --> 0:12:15.959 from Bert that night. 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:20.040 Let me tell you something about the time with Graham. 0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:22.520 I think actually we've got a couple of shots of 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:27.120 the two of us years to want to show you. 0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:31.280 But they were very exciting times and to have a 0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:37.320 look at those shots and see at work a master, 0:12:37.520 --> 0:12:43.280 a man who just you know, brought to Australian television 0:12:43.600 --> 0:12:46.840 the greatest talent. I also thought Graham was very cool. 0:12:49.760 --> 0:12:50.600 Classic sweacher. 0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:54.920 So the audience was back on side and they loved him. 0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:57.040 Redeem himself, Yes he did. 0:12:57.120 --> 0:12:59.000 No, it's all coming back to me now. I do 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:01.240 remember being in the audio that night and he'd made 0:13:01.280 --> 0:13:04.400 a couple of jokes that were a little bit inappropriate, yes, 0:13:04.600 --> 0:13:06.840 And so the rest of the speech was just really 0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:09.400 awkward because we couldn't tell if he was being sincere 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:12.319 or if he was setting himself up for another inappropriate joke. 0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:15.079 So it was kind of like gritting teeth the whole time, like, 0:13:15.120 --> 0:13:17.360 Oh God, what's he gonna say? Am I supposed to yeah? 0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:19.560 Is it supposed to be genuine and sincere? Or is 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:21.520 this going to be another joke? Like it was very awkward. 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:22.960 I remember that he was tense. It was like we 0:13:22.960 --> 0:13:24.600 were walking on eggs shells, like what is he going 0:13:24.640 --> 0:13:26.760 to do? Yeah, I was. I was kind of thinking, 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:29.640 fuck me, get him off stage. And there was a 0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:31.000 point for something else. 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:32.959 I know he kind of like did some audience interaction 0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:35.080 with his beloved wife Patty, and they cut to Patty 0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:37.280 in her face was like, honey, She's like. 0:13:38.200 --> 0:13:40.040 That's enough from you. You've had a brandy you know 0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:43.240 what you get like exactly that. So I think I 0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:46.319 now remember what the joke about brain Kennedy was. Come 0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:46.760 back to me. 0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:49.120 Don't forget twenty eighteen, the height of the me too 0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:53.480 movement ever sexual assault and jokes around that weren't that funny. 0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:56.080 That's why this joke got a lot of media attention. 0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:56.720 I've listened. 0:13:57.000 --> 0:14:01.400 Brian Kennedy was always the sort of man who leged 0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:08.199 young talent. He enjoyed giving young people a chance on television. 0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:11.400 He was a great mentor. He mentored a lot of 0:14:11.679 --> 0:14:13.840 young people. You knew that if he went to his 0:14:13.920 --> 0:14:17.560 dressing room and it was locked, he'd be inside doing 0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:25.800 some mentoring. Oh don Lane was a mentor too. He 0:14:25.880 --> 0:14:29.000 did a hell of a lot of mentory. They were 0:14:29.040 --> 0:14:30.000 wonderful years. 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:35.680 Yeah, see that's what everyone was like, do we like Yeah? 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:38.920 And they were cutting to very well known famous Australian 0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:40.800 media p Hay mission and he was sitting there and 0:14:40.840 --> 0:14:41.840 they cut to them and they were. 0:14:41.680 --> 0:14:44.400 Like, oh, well, I guess we'll laugh at Burt Newton. 0:14:44.680 --> 0:14:47.400 It was just it didn't sit right and it's a 0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.240 shame that was his final TV appearance. 0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:52.320 Was that really the final TV appearance? Yeah? Far around? 0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:54.400 Yeah, final logus? Do he hosted the logos like ten 0:14:54.440 --> 0:14:54.920 times one? 0:14:55.040 --> 0:14:55.440 Yeah? Six? 0:14:56.120 --> 0:14:57.920 I think yeah, four? 0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:02.200 I think. To be honest, though, in defense Graham, Kennedy 0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:04.680 and Bert Right, they were a duo. Yes, they were 0:15:04.920 --> 0:15:07.800 iconic in their time. And if I was ever in 0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:09.560 a position where I had to give some sort of 0:15:09.680 --> 0:15:12.160 tribute to you, because you obviously will die before me, yeah, 0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:14.520 I would roast the fuck out of you too. I'd 0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:17.200 make inappropriate jokes at your expense. What would you say? 0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:21.440 I wouldn't insinuate that you groom young people, that's for sure, 0:15:21.480 --> 0:15:24.040 But I definitely I don't know. I haven't actually thought 0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:26.160 about what my post death speech for you will be 0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:29.160 what would you say. There'd be gentle nudges, like, there'd 0:15:29.200 --> 0:15:32.119 be a sprinkle of sincerity, and then I just occasionally 0:15:32.120 --> 0:15:34.520 call you fat or something. Yeah, you know, I get 0:15:34.520 --> 0:15:36.080 it because they're friends. But then to everyone else it 0:15:36.160 --> 0:15:38.840 was like, fuck me, man, Bert, you can't say that. 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:41.240 But also, that is funny if if we were to die, 0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:43.200 you know, and then you'd make the speech that week. 0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:45.280 But he'd been dead for twenty five years, like the 0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:46.480 jokes had had. 0:15:46.400 --> 0:15:48.280 Not aged No, they hadn't aged well. 0:15:48.400 --> 0:15:50.880 They would have done well in the fifties and sixties, 0:15:51.040 --> 0:15:52.440 but now it didn't sit right. 0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:54.360 Maybe he should have spent less time on TV and 0:15:54.360 --> 0:15:56.600 actually watching TV. If he'd been the news, he would 0:15:56.600 --> 0:15:58.480 have known that that shit's not okay. We're all too 0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:02.440 woke for those jokes. Now, Bert, tone of death all right, 0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:04.800 God love him. I support it. I think it was funny. 0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:07.840 Yeah, and Bert can say puff yeah. Burt Newton can 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:08.600 say puff yeah. 0:16:08.960 --> 0:16:10.600 Did you see he did give his got his one 0:16:10.640 --> 0:16:12.400 of his gold logies to a puff. 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:16.320 Yes, yes, there was the eights. 0:16:16.400 --> 0:16:16.640 Yes. 0:16:16.840 --> 0:16:19.600 He told this story to Peter Ford, entertainment reporter, and 0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:21.400 Peter Ford said, now that Burt Newton's dead, I can 0:16:21.440 --> 0:16:23.120 tell you the story that I swore i'd never tell 0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:26.800 until he died. So apparently Bert Newton gave one of 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:30.440 his six or four gold logis to a gay man 0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:32.600 in Sydney he was dying in hospital, who was a 0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:34.880 friend of Peter Ford's. And Peter Ford wrote to Burt 0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:36.840 and said, I'd love if you could come and see 0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:38.960 my friend. And he's a big fan of yours. 0:16:39.000 --> 0:16:41.200 It was originally just signed this card. 0:16:41.120 --> 0:16:41.800 Sign this card. 0:16:41.920 --> 0:16:43.760 He's a giant fan of yours. He's dying of AIDS. 0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:45.400 He doesn't have long left. And this was in the 0:16:45.480 --> 0:16:49.120 nineties when nobody wanted to talk about AIDS, let alone 0:16:49.120 --> 0:16:52.000 be in the same room as someone with AIDS. You know, awful, 0:16:52.400 --> 0:16:55.480 heavily stigmatized. Bert Peter never heard back. 0:16:55.520 --> 0:16:56.600 He's like, what what a shame. 0:16:56.640 --> 0:16:58.120 Anyway, then he gets a call from his friend and 0:16:58.160 --> 0:17:00.360 goes come to the hospital, gets to the hospital and 0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:03.160 sitting on the table is Bert's gold logie. 0:17:03.000 --> 0:17:04.160 And he'd just left. 0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:04.639 He was. 0:17:04.680 --> 0:17:06.760 He stayed in the hospital with this man for. 0:17:06.600 --> 0:17:09.399 Hours, every single other patient as. 0:17:09.240 --> 0:17:11.120 Well, but to all the other all the other yeah, 0:17:11.160 --> 0:17:14.800 AIDS HIV positive men, and gave him the gold logie, 0:17:14.800 --> 0:17:16.159 and then he died a couple of days later, but 0:17:16.320 --> 0:17:17.280 he got the LOGI. 0:17:17.040 --> 0:17:19.520
