1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Jump Mission with Jonesy and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:06,920
Speaker 2: Can you believe it's been fifty years since we first

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 2: saw Hey Hey as Saturday one of Australia's longest running

4
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 2: and most love shows. Fifty years on, host of the show,

5
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,240
Speaker 2: Darryl Summers hasn't aged a bit.

6
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 3: Hello Darryl, Hello a man. Dad.

7
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,279
Speaker 2: Well, if someone had said to you when you first

8
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 2: started on this show that you'd be doing a special

9
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 2: fifty years from now, that's how you'd pictured you'd be,

10
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 2: but it's not how you are. Fifty years has gone

11
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 2: so quickly.

12
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, you kind of measure television shows in months, maybe

13
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 3: or weeks in terms of longevity. We were very fortunate,

14
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,559
Speaker 3: I think because we're in a non threatening area on

15
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 3: a Saturday morning. It wasn't as cup throat when we started,

16
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,560
Speaker 3: so we were allowed to do a fourteen year apprenticeship

17
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 3: before we went to nighttime. And that's basically how I

18
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 3: always think of it.

19
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 2: Because that's how it always was. I remember watching it

20
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 2: in the mornings and there'd be the joke for the

21
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 2: little there'd be you know, content for the little kids,

22
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 2: but the slightly older kids there was sort of something

23
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,839
Speaker 2: always edgy and hilarious.

24
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, we had. I think we had a family audience there,

25
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 3: and I know that there was almost predominant adult audience

26
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 3: about nineteen seventy five, so it was I think we

27
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 3: were set up as more of a babysitter to begin with,

28
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 3: but it sort of grew. And Ernie Carroll, who was Ossie,

29
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 3: he wrote for Graham Kennedy, so we didn't go in

30
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 3: there thinking, oh, we're going to be talking down to

31
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 3: little kids or so we thought we're just going there

32
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 3: and do our thing and see what happens. And it

33
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 3: seemed to cut through to a broader audience. And thank

34
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,320
Speaker 3: goodness because it allowed us to go to night time

35
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 3: in eighty four and through to the end of ninety nine,

36
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 3: which is our first run, which is twenty eight years,

37
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 3: and then we came back in nine and ten for

38
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 3: another two years, so it was thirty years all up.

39
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: And Ernie Carroll, how he's in his eighties now, isn't he.

40
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 3: No, he's in a retirement village now, he's ninety two.

41
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 3: And I went to see him on his ninety second

42
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 3: birthday and he was still going okay. And it was

43
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 3: just for me. I mean, Ernie was my mentor, so

44
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 3: I just love the guy and it was so wonderful

45
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 3: to get to see him. Of course, with COVID, I

46
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 3: haven't been able to, you know.

47
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: And but that begs the question, what about Ozzie? Does

48
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: how old Ozzie these days?

49
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 3: He's eleven, He's always been eleven. And Ernie he used

50
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 3: to do a routine with counting down on the fingers.

51
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 3: You've put your ten fingers up and you'd go ten, nine, eight, seven,

52
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 3: six and five is eleven. And so we did that

53
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 3: routine over the years, and the more recent times we

54
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 3: tried it back in twenty ten, Erni had forgotten that

55
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 3: he had forgotten the routine. Mind you, then he was

56
00:02:58,320 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 3: in his eighties.

57
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 2: So Darren, any show that's been on that long is

58
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 2: going to also, you know, the changing styles of comedy.

59
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 2: And I know that you haven't shied away from the

60
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 2: discussion about Harry Connick Junior and Kamal How is will

61
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: that play any role on the fifty years or do

62
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 2: you feel you've kind of dealt with that.

63
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 3: Oh, we've dealt with that, and really it was a blip.

64
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,839
Speaker 3: It was a blip, and I think importantly we did

65
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,959
Speaker 3: the show for thirty years and those two things were

66
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 3: blown up way out of proportion, and you know, we've

67
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 3: been a shot of Kamal in there where we didn't have.

68
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 3: This show is a highlight show and I'm hosting it

69
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 3: and there's very a few people who are walking into

70
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 3: that studio where I am. We were greatly restricted too

71
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 3: with COVID, so I couldn't have all the people on

72
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 3: that we'd love to have had on, so you know,

73
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 3: we squeezed them into visual little packages here and there.

74
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 3: So the show, you know, I want this to reflect

75
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 3: the full thirty years, not just a couple of little

76
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 3: incidents that were overblown.

77
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: I love In the morning, I'll get on YouTube and

78
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: I'll just watch old Hey Saturday episodes and there's a

79
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: great bit there where you have Molly Meldron comes in

80
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: for the first time on he Hay Saturday in the daytime,

81
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 1: so in the morning show. So there was this oh

82
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: and I've just watched it. I went down the YouTube wormhole.

83
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: But it was just great to see Molly, who was

84
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: sort of and you're saying, oh, he's on another network,

85
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 1: you know, meaning the ABC. But it was just amount

86
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: of grief everyone's giving Molly. But it was just so

87
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: it was so funny it was just so good it

88
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: still stands up.

89
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, of course Molly did countdown, and after countdown

90
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 3: there was I thought, really should get Mulder come over.

91
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 3: You know, I've done Molly for many, many years, and

92
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 3: so I thought, I'll get him over to the show

93
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 3: and he can do a little operable. But I was

94
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 3: going to say, rather than you're going down the wormhole

95
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 3: now on YouTube, you will. I sort of announced this

96
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 3: on the show, but heyheedot TV is going to have

97
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,799
Speaker 3: some about eight hundred shows on it that people will

98
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 3: able to be able to go to and have access

99
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 3: to eight hundred old Hey hayes years and so I've

100
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 3: then set about digitizing them and it's taken probably eleven

101
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 3: twelve years. They're all digitized and hopefully we'll get people

102
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 3: coming over. And it's a it's a subscription model, so

103
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,080

104
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,560
