00:09Tonight, join Chris Parker, Alex Ward, Daniel Connell, Denise Scott, and Ed Cavalli as we
00:17look back on the week and ask, have you been paying attention?
00:22And now, the man with the cast, John Blystead.
00:28Good evening, it's been great to have your company for our weekly wander back through
00:32events of the past seven days, and a special thanks to everyone out there who took the
00:37time to vote for, um, Scott Pam and the block team, we'll get that back to them later.
00:46Anyway, it's been a huge week of news, but how's this for a line-up to help make sense
00:50of it all?
00:51She describes herself on Instagram as someone who enjoys lying on her bed staring vacantly
00:57into space?
00:58It's the amazing Denise Scott.
01:02Heading to Edinburgh with his hit show Stop Being So Dramatic.
01:06Welcome back, Chris Parker.
01:07Hey Chris.
01:08Don't stop.
01:10Heading to Bendigo with her hit show Cliff Pop Don't Stop.
01:14Say hello to Alex Ward.
01:18He's considered by many as one of the best things to ever come out of Batelans Bay, the
01:22fabulous Daniel Connell.
01:26And finally, you may have seen him on Sunday night on the Logies during the ad breaks talking
01:31about insurance.
01:31It's Ed Pavley.
01:35Now, welcome back, Daniel, and we spotted this shot on your socials.
01:40There I am.
01:41What's going on there?
01:41Yeah, it's me and Kitty.
01:42A few days ago, we did a charity event for Deborah Australia.
01:45What's Deborah Australia?
01:47It's basically research for EB, which is Epidemolysis Bullosa is the name.
01:51Yeah, so supporting kids and people with that and family.
01:54And did you raise much money?
01:56Lost money, actually.
01:58Our fees are pretty high.
02:00Hey, great to have you back, Denise.
02:02And I need to ask about some footage.
02:04Your daughter, Bonnie, was in an op shop and she posted this rather intriguing...
02:10Oh, yes.
02:11What's that poster?
02:13An ordinary woman.
02:15What's that?
02:15It was a film I was in in 19...
02:20How old?
02:2188.
02:22Wow.
02:23It was such a hit.
02:24And I was the ordinary woman.
02:28Can you believe?
02:29Crazy.
02:30But the thing is that that is the poster for the film and there are multiple images of
02:37my daughter, Bonnie.
02:39Right?
02:40In that poster.
02:41And she's walked in to an op shop and there's this poster.
02:45She's trying to tell people.
02:47That's me.
02:48That's me.
02:49They thought she was crazy.
02:50Well, where we live, drug, you know.
02:53Yes.
02:54Anyway, I said to my daughter, so did you buy it?
02:58And she went, no, it costs 20 bucks.
03:00No.
03:01It sounds like Denise is making this up.
03:03We found that film.
03:05It is from 1988.
03:06It features you and Bonnie baking scones.
03:09Wow.
03:10What are they?
03:10I've got to put them in the oven now.
03:12Oh.
03:14Hey, Mummy.
03:15Hey, Mummy.
03:18You look hot.
03:19You should let it go.
03:22That's beautiful.
03:23In the next scene, Denise makes a mushroom beef wellington fry for her ex-husband.
03:28It's beautiful.
03:29Now, Denise, you were telling us recently you had a frightening experience at home.
03:34Am I still talking?
03:35You are.
03:36This is weird and you know it.
03:39What happened?
03:39Well, my partner, John, took the dogs for a walk.
03:43Yeah.
03:44The two dogs.
03:44And I heard the screen door open and someone come in.
03:49I thought, oh, John's back with the dogs.
03:51I've got your interest, Alex.
03:53Hello.
03:53That's amazing.
03:55And I walk into the hallway.
03:56It's this man I've never seen walking down our hallway.
04:01Whoa.
04:01And I went, hello.
04:10I guess I was lonely.
04:12I don't know.
04:14Anyway, he was a home invader.
04:16Oh, my God.
04:18I said, what are you doing here?
04:20And I went, it's just been a strange confluence of events.
04:27Who else says that?
04:29Who's not a home invader?
04:32Anyway, what happened was I kept pursuing, I kept going, what's happened to your throat?
04:38Because, you know, and he was just wanting to get the hell out.
04:41And he's going, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, backing out.
04:45Are you the only ever person to bore a home invader?
04:50And this is my point.
04:51There's your strategy.
04:53There you go.
04:53Next time.
04:54Denise, not at all.
04:55We've got to take a break.
04:56Back to the...
04:58Sorry.
04:58Now, do we need to ask Chris?
05:00I know you've been touring all around New Zealand.
05:03I have, yeah.
05:04Big shows.
05:05Some small shows.
05:07Hi, sir.
05:08That's New Zealand for you.
05:09Yes.
05:09High highs and low lows.
05:12And what, you get to everywhere in the country, pretty much?
05:15Yeah, mainly.
05:16I got to Queenstown, actually, even, which was quite a strange venue because they don't
05:20have a big theatre there.
05:22I think you posted something online.
05:23I got put into this, like, winery, but it looks like I'm running a church service.
05:30I did actually do communion, but, and, I mean, drink a bottle of, yeah, red wine.
05:35Right.
05:35Nothing wrong with that.
05:36All right.
05:36We better get this quiz started.
05:38How about...
05:38Oh, no, I've got another story.
05:41All right.
05:42Hands on buzzers.
05:43Our Prime Minister was in the Northern Territory on the weekend.
05:47What event was he attending?
05:49Chris.
05:49A hat sale.
05:50Well, he's...
05:51He likes...
05:52He does wear a hat...
05:53No, I've seen a guy that age in a hat like that.
05:55That must be a destination wedding.
05:57I'm getting...
05:58I'm guessing the...
05:59I'm guessing the fiancée said she wanted a big rock.
06:02And you're in the right part of the country, Daniel.
06:05Was it the Gama Festival?
06:07Indeed, yes.
06:07The Gama Festival, four-day celebration up in Arnhem Land.
06:10Oh, there was drama in the Senate on Wednesday.
06:13My 70-year-old grandson recently came home from school and asked his mother,
06:16where's your penis?
06:21What's Pauline Hanson talking about?
06:23Alex.
06:24Just firstly, women can have them too.
06:27Like, Pauline's is on her forehead.
06:29Yeah.
06:31You need to know, what is she talking about Denise?
06:34I think this is quite a normal question.
06:36And, um...
06:38You know, when my kids were little, they said,
06:41where's your penis, Mummy?
06:43And I said, well, it's in the bedside drawer.
06:48And...
06:51You make a good point.
06:52It's not true.
06:53It's not true.
06:54I hid it in my knee-high boot.
06:57So, Ed, what's Pauline Hanson talking about?
06:59I think she's upset that they were teaching gender identity in schools, Tom.
07:03Indeed.
07:04Prompting strong words from the member for Sexyland.
07:09Well, it was a big day in central Queensland.
07:11That's pretty impressive that they got it up.
07:14At least they got it up.
07:16Wait, what's that young chap just witness, Chris?
07:19It's a big week for Pauline Hanson.
07:24This happened up in Bowen in Queensland.
07:27What was up, Alex?
07:28I do know this.
07:28It was a rocket.
07:29It was a rocket launched and it did fine at best.
07:32Well, the launch of the first Australia-made rocket,
07:36it lasted 14 seconds,
07:38but it did give us one of the finest pieces of launch commentary ever recorded.
07:42It's going.
07:43It's going.
07:44Oh, OK.
07:44It's hovering.
07:45It's hovering.
07:45It's hovering.
07:46It's hovering.
07:47It's gone.
07:48Oh, no.
07:50No, it didn't go.
07:53Well, here's some advice we all heard this week.
07:56Don't go down to the beach.
07:57Don't be looking at waves.
07:59Get yourself as high as you possibly can.
08:01Get yourself as high as you possibly can.
08:04In response to what?
08:06Daniel?
08:07Before you watch Happy Gilmore 2.
08:08Yes.
08:10That's probably going to hell for that release.
08:12What's this week, though?
08:13It's a warning for people relating to what, Ed?
08:16Is there a tsunami?
08:17Yes, yeah.
08:17We had the big 8.7 earthquake off Russia and they thought there'd be big waves.
08:22Intriguing statement from Donald Trump.
08:24I never had the privilege of going to his island.
08:27You're right.
08:28You're right.
08:29What island?
08:31Alex?
08:32I'm just going to...
08:32It was Epstein.
08:33I don't know why he said privilege, but, yeah, it's Epstein's island.
08:36It's like saying I never had the honour of meeting Stalin.
08:39It's...
08:40It's hard to get onto Epstein Island, Tommy.
08:42What do you do?
08:43Like, how do you...
08:44You have to book well ahead.
08:45You have to book ahead.
08:47Trump continues to be asked about relations with underage girls, but he's too smart to
08:52be caught out.
08:52Some of them young women.
08:54Well, I don't want to say, but the answer is yes.
08:57Okay.
08:59Close.
09:00Oh, it was a tough Thursday in England.
09:02This was the scene at Heathrow this afternoon, and it could not have come at a worse time.
09:07What caused the chaos at Heathrow?
09:09Alex?
09:09Chaos.
09:09They ran out of novelty-sized Tobler ants.
09:12And the airport shuts down.
09:14Denise, did you find...
09:15Was it the tsunami stuff?
09:17Not tsunami-related.
09:19That's all right.
09:19Another go.
09:20No, but thanks for playing.
09:21Chris?
09:22Was it like a system shutdown, right?
09:24But they fixed it by turning it off and turning it on.
09:25That's actually true.
09:26Pretty much, Chris.
09:27Yeah, major air traffic control outage.
09:28I'll give you the points.
09:29Or amazing scenes on the streets of Birmingham.
09:31What was the occasion?
09:33Daniel?
09:34Are the garbage trucks on strike?
09:36Yeah, that's right.
09:37It's actually not garbage.
09:37It's flowers.
09:38Alex?
09:38No, this is quite sad.
09:39A florist exploded.
09:40Oh, okay.
09:42Celebrating.
09:43Obviously, flowers, wreath.
09:44It's, of course, the funeral of the iconic Chris.
09:47Aussie Osborne, right?
09:48And they marked about releasing a flock of headless bats.
09:51Oh, thank you.
09:52It was a lovely touch.
09:53Thank you, Chris.
09:55But, of course, Aussie touched so many people.
09:57If he was never here, I feel like I wouldn't be the person I am today.
10:01Jeez, that looked a lot like Chris Parker as a child.
10:05That and everything.
10:06That and everything.
10:07I'm getting the fringe out.
10:08I'm getting the fringe out.
10:09That's great.
10:10We've got to take a break.
10:11Back with more.
10:11Have you been...
10:28The Albanese government has made a YouTube.
10:30YouTube.
10:31YouTube.
10:31YouTube will be included in Australia's social media band.
10:34Everyone's going to have an opinion on that one.
10:36I love it.
10:37It's Delulu.
10:37But in the meantime, education analysts are warning...
10:40Government officials...
10:41Are all getting together...
10:42...to receive any colour skivvy...
10:44Making it clear...
10:44My government is pro-wiggle.
10:46Pro-wiggle.
10:47Yeah.
10:50And that's what you have.
10:52You've been paying attention just before we return to questions.
10:54Alex, you posted this rather intriguing image.
10:58What's going on there?
11:00I was emceeing an event recently and that's the green room they gave me.
11:06Wow.
11:06Do you know, often when I do these hosting events and I'm...
11:10That's just mine, by the way.
11:12I was solo.
11:12I'll be in these tiny little spaces.
11:14Sometimes I'm in cupboards.
11:14And I remember thinking to myself, like,
11:16I've got to get out of this stand-up game.
11:17It's lonely.
11:18It's disrespectful.
11:19And then I walked in the other night.
11:20I saw this, the table-dressed, free jug of Coke.
11:23Nice.
11:24And I thought, just when I thought I was out...
11:27You're back in, Alex.
11:29They pulled me back in.
11:30Well done.
11:31Good to see you.
11:32All right, let's get back into some questions.
11:35New Zealand Parliament was interrupted this week.
11:38I was there with my kids over the weekend.
11:41Is it on somebody's phone?
11:43Can I have some advice, please?
11:44Wow, what was the emergency?
11:47Alex?
11:48Alex, I think that's the alarm that goes off
11:50when an Australian says they invented pavlova.
11:52That's right.
11:54We jump on them.
11:55Daniel?
11:56Can I just ask Chris, where is everyone?
11:59Yeah, yeah.
12:00Look, it was a bad turnout.
12:02It was Brent's 40th, so everyone forgot about it.
12:05It's not a great...
12:07Is that even a quorum?
12:08Denise?
12:09I'm going to go with tsunami again.
12:14You mocked.
12:15Denise, you are quite correct.
12:16It was indeed the tsunami warning that was going to hit.
12:18Is it?
12:20Incredible.
12:22Oh, this was unfortunate.
12:23A woman in Queensland has been denied a personalised number plate
12:27with her name because it was deemed inappropriate by the government.
12:30Her name is...
12:31Her name is...
12:33Daniel?
12:34Crystal Meth.
12:36You're not a million miles away.
12:38Denise?
12:40Titiana and...
12:42That's a beautiful name.
12:43I've had to be the answer.
12:44It's not Titiana.
12:46Alex?
12:47Dan was kind of right.
12:49Oh, yeah, because her name was Indiga.
12:51Indiga.
12:52What is it?
12:53Oh, don't act like you don't know.
12:55Excuse me.
12:56I used to know and then I smoked too much weed.
12:59In fact, it's a strain of marijuana.
13:02Marijuana.
13:03Yeah, yeah.
13:03The one we had last weekend.
13:05That's right.
13:05But, Alex points yours.
13:07To a romantic proposal in Santorini.
13:15What happens next?
13:16Chris?
13:17Well, she invites her three dads to Greece.
13:19And then they...
13:22And they all start seeing episodes and...
13:25People are thrilled by that.
13:27I have no idea what he's talking about.
13:30It's like, is it Colin Firth?
13:32Is it Pierce Brosnan?
13:33Is it Skarsgård?
13:34Skarsgård and then Meryl Streep.
13:36It's Mamma Mia, Ed.
13:37What?
13:37Mamma Mia.
13:38It's the musical Mamma Mia.
13:40Yep.
13:40All right.
13:40See you soon.
13:42Is that a movie?
13:43Thank you, Chris.
13:43Have you not experienced pure joy?
13:46Let's go back to Santorini.
13:48Denise, what happens next?
13:50The tsunami.
13:54I will get points.
13:57There's both, sadly, not Daniel.
13:59I've seen a couple of tourists walk in their shot.
14:02It's the magic moment.
14:03Down on one knee.
14:04The ring.
14:05And then this happens.
14:10So good, Tom.
14:14I think we've got three married people in the front row.
14:17Did you have big sort of Greek island-style proposals?
14:20I, um...
14:21Well, mine was on the footy watching...
14:22Oh, no, sorry, on the couch watching Friday Night Footy.
14:25OK.
14:25Did you turn the sound down?
14:27No, no.
14:27Just kept going there.
14:29I proposed...
14:30It was sort of romantic near, like...
14:31Well, I shouldn't say near a cliff.
14:33But you never know what the answer's going to be.
14:35Sure.
14:36That's funny.
14:37It was a look out.
14:38Yeah.
14:38But, yeah, it was...
14:39Yeah, anyway, I was a bit nervous because I didn't have the ring I wanted to eventually
14:43get.
14:44I proposed.
14:44But I had a signet ring.
14:46It's like a stone.
14:46But, yeah, so it signifies, like, love or hope.
14:49Mine signified that 2021 was a financially difficult year.
14:51Sure.
14:52But it's still happening.
14:53She said yes.
14:54She said yes.
14:54Chris, a big order?
14:55Well, yeah, I got proposed too.
14:57And we went to a fancy restaurant.
14:59And I didn't know what was happening.
15:00And my husband, he doesn't drink.
15:01But, um, I do.
15:04I was so pissed.
15:06I did not know.
15:06And in the morning I woke up and I was like, what's that?
15:11He was so pissed that he used to be straight.
15:13Yeah.
15:14Who knew?
15:15OK, it's time to look at all things entertainment.
15:23And tonight's showbiz segment is once again brought to you by the Mitsubishi Triton.
15:27It's Mitsubishi's most capable Ute ever.
15:30Nothing can frighten a Triton.
15:32Well, of course, the Logies kicked off with a surprise appearance by what Aussie legend?
15:37Daniel.
15:38Jimmy Barnes.
15:39Jimmy Barnes kicked off the evening.
15:40Chris Parker, you want to live in this country, you better name your favourite Jimmy Barnes
15:43song real quick.
15:44Uh, working class man.
15:47Yes.
15:48Wow.
15:50Hang on.
15:52Hang on.
15:52Did you say working class man?
15:54Yeah.
15:57We will pay that.
15:58We will pay that.
16:00Daniel Pontius.
16:01Well, this was unexpected.
16:03TMZ has captured Katy Perry on a date with none other than.
16:09With none other than, Chris?
16:10A girl and she liked her.
16:12Oh.
16:14But in this instance, no.
16:15Daniel?
16:16Was it the divorced CEO from the Coldplay?
16:18Oh, of course.
16:18He's on the market.
16:19He's on the market.
16:20No, this is a high profile date.
16:22This is wild to me anyway.
16:23It's Justin Trudeau.
16:24Trudeau?
16:25Say it.
16:25Yeah.
16:26Points to yours out.
16:27This Justin.
16:28Breaking news.
16:29Justin Timberlake has just revealed that he's been diagnosed with.
16:32Diagnosed with what?
16:34Chris?
16:34Sexy back.
16:35It's a chronic pain here.
16:38Very painful.
16:39Denise.
16:40Horrible.
16:40I know.
16:41It's a common syndrome.
16:44It's when you get old, you become irrelevant and you have to use your medical issues to
16:49get some attention.
16:54I've done it myself.
16:55I'm a big fan of it.
16:58It's a really good idea.
16:59Is that the case?
17:00This is a specific disease.
17:02She might.
17:02Can we split the point?
17:03It's Lyme disease.
17:04Yes.
17:05But she's right.
17:06He hasn't had any movies or songs.
17:08Like this is like the only thing he's announced in 10 years.
17:11Yes.
17:11I've got Lyme.
17:12Well, I haven't.
17:13But actually I have.
17:17And I think I'll have to give you the points he's diagnosed with Lyme disease.
17:20The Blocks foreman Dan wasn't happy.
17:22If I give you an instruction, you can't disobey it.
17:25No, I didn't believe it.
17:26No, I've lost trust.
17:27Because you've just gone behind my back.
17:29Oh, what did contestant Hannah do?
17:32Daniel.
17:33Big mistake.
17:34She got him a dim sum instead of a chico roll.
17:38No, we're not.
17:39And on top of that, he specifically said icebreaker.
17:42She got him a nippies.
17:45She did something that Dan's not happy with.
17:48Do you know?
17:49No, no, no.
17:49Do you know?
17:49I don't know.
17:50Of course I don't.
17:51How about that?
17:52Of course I don't know.
17:53She did something.
17:54She started waterproofing Denise without permission from...
17:57What's his name?
18:00Foreman Dan.
18:01Foreman Dan.
18:01Foreman Dan.
18:02Yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:02But then she probably...
18:05He was very...
18:06He was an arsehole, I think.
18:07And he was...
18:09She would have been crying and then the waterproofing would have been good.
18:13Sure.
18:14You make a good point.
18:15That's good.
18:16Ed, I'll pay that she started waterproofing without supervision.
18:19Well, Gordon Ramsay's new show Secret Service debuted on Wednesday.
18:23Oh, ****.
18:23Look at the size of that thing.
18:25Paul, that's disgusting.
18:27Wow.
18:28What has Gordon just seen?
18:31He's actually watching fresh footage of last night's Logie's After Party.
18:34That's a true...
18:35That was disgusting.
18:36Might be one word.
18:37Chris, what's Gordon just seen?
18:38A rat.
18:39Ooh, let's...
18:40In defence, the rat was on the head.
18:42Oh, no.
18:43Where in the heart?
18:44Come on.
18:45Two movie references.
18:47That wasn't near.
18:48I'm going to take the first part.
18:49You say he saw a rat.
18:50Let's take a look.
18:51Five Rats, a live version of **** Ratatouille.
18:56We've got to take a break.
18:57Back with our special guest, Quizmaster, right after this.
19:11We're back to watching Happy Event, Payne and Kenyon,
19:13and it's time to meet our special guest, Quizmaster.
19:15We've seen her starring in everything from upper-middle bogan
19:18to Colin from accounts,
19:20and she's about to hit our screens again.
19:22Say hello to Annie Maynard.
19:25Annie, come on out.
19:27Welcome.
19:29Great to see you.
19:30Thanks for having me.
19:31We've seen you in so many shows,
19:32you're about to dive into a new one.
19:34It's a mystery thriller playing Gracie Darling.
19:37Who's Gracie and what's she playing?
19:39Well, Gracie in the 90s was having a seance with her friends
19:44and she went missing.
19:46And so there's the new generation,
19:48our children now are doing their own seances
19:52and another girl has gone missing.
19:54OK.
19:54Well, it sounds spooky.
19:56She's at my house, by the way.
19:57Oh, yeah.
19:58Just so enough.
19:59Problem solved.
19:59Problem solved indeed.
20:00A pretty impressive cast, Annie,
20:02including our very own Celia Piquola.
20:05Yeah.
20:05What was she like to work with?
20:07Well, I mean, you guys know, she's very demanding.
20:11Controlling.
20:12Controlling, high maintenance.
20:14Cold.
20:14No, she's an absolute delight
20:16and I think you'll see her in a really new light
20:20because she's playing, you know,
20:21a grieving, vulnerable, distressed woman
20:25and she does an incredible job.
20:27She does that on this show too.
20:29That's right.
20:30You also got to work with Ann Tenney,
20:32better known, of course, as Sally Kerrigan from The Castle.
20:35Adorable.
20:36So pretty amazing series.
20:38Annie, just to save me some time,
20:39what happens in the end?
20:40Are they...
20:43Well, you'll have to watch episode six.
20:44You will have to watch that.
20:46It's all going to be dropped at once.
20:47Annie, so many roles over your career.
20:50Do you realise you and I have actually worked together before?
20:54Indirectly, I believe.
20:55Mm, the series was Utopia on the ABC,
20:58which I co-wrote and you played the role of?
21:01I was the Jorgensen smart fridge freezer.
21:07Smart fridge freezer voice.
21:09Take a look.
21:10Yes.
21:10Let's do it.
21:13Welcome to your Jorgensen fridge freezer.
21:16Even if you're in the moment.
21:18And the Logie goes too.
21:22A career highlight.
21:26Now, we share a mutual friend,
21:27a young Glenn Robbins,
21:28and this was at the Logies a couple of years,
21:31but I think it might have been the year
21:32that Colin from Accounts won about 27 awards.
21:36I adore him.
21:37He is the most gorgeous man,
21:39and the fact that he played my dad,
21:41I'll just never, ever recover from that.
21:43Absolutely.
21:45And this...
21:46Are you holding his chin up?
21:48Because at our age...
21:50LAUGHTER
21:51I mean, it helps.
21:53Yeah.
21:54I understand.
21:55It's in his contract, I think?
21:57All right, Annie has kindly agreed
21:59to ask you five some questions.
22:00We've got them here.
22:01Why don't we dive in?
22:02OK.
22:02It was a touching moment at the Logies last night
22:05when who was inducted into the Hall of Fame?
22:08Uh, Denise.
22:10Forman Dam.
22:12LAUGHTER
22:12That's what we've got here.
22:14Very deserving nominee,
22:15but this was an even better...
22:17LAUGHTER
22:18Winner.
22:18Alex.
22:19Magda.
22:19Yes, our beloved Magda.
22:22And apparently you have to pronounce her surname
22:24as if you're Arnold Schwarzenegger
22:26to get it correct.
22:26Here we go.
22:26Say it.
22:27Magda Zubinski.
22:29Wow.
22:30Good, because I mumbled through it.
22:31Yes.
22:32Just go under.
22:33Tom's good at accents.
22:34You name a country, he'll do the accent.
22:36LAUGHTER
22:37Next question, Annie.
22:39This is coming to Netflix.
22:41What's the show?
22:43Uh, Denise.
22:44The Real Housewives of...
22:47..of Longceston.
22:49LAUGHTER
22:50It would be a great series.
22:52Alex, what's the show?
22:53Sex and the City sequel.
22:55It's Celibacy and the Country.
22:56Yes.
22:57LAUGHTER
22:57Can I get them out of your system, Daniel?
23:00LAUGHTER
23:01Do one.
23:03That's great.
23:04Amish Farmer Wants a Wife.
23:05OK.
23:07See, I would have gone with McLeod's Granddaughters, but...
23:10LAUGHTER
23:11Uh, Chris.
23:12Is it Pride and Prejudice, is it?
23:14Yes.
23:15Oh, come on, guys.
23:16Yeah, six times a new theory.
23:17It's because I love movies.
23:18Of course it is.
23:19Feel good on that, are they?
23:20Eddie Murphy has an exciting new role.
23:23Are you French in this?
23:24Maybe.
23:26Who's he playing?
23:28He does French in this.
23:29Daniel?
23:29French, was it?
23:31Joan of Arc in Big Mama's Arc.
23:34Wow.
23:35Wow.
23:36Not that much we've got here.
23:37Thanks.
23:38Uh, it's another kind of reboot.
23:40Famous comedy role, Denise?
23:42Did you say arc?
23:43Or...
23:43Sorry.
23:44Um, uh...
23:46Oh, in...
23:47Inspector Clouseau.
23:48Yes.
23:49Uh, Pink Pan...
23:50Well, you know, that one.
23:51LAUGHTER
23:52You're right, in the new Pink Panther movie, I think, with the other syllables.
23:56Yes.
23:56Thank you, Denise.
23:58This painting has just won the People's Choice Award at the Archibald Prize.
24:02What is unusual about it?
24:04Daniel?
24:04The lady looks really lifelike.
24:06Yes.
24:06She's the artist.
24:07She's the artist.
24:09Uh, that's Loribel, the artist.
24:11But it's unusual.
24:12It's a finger painting, right?
24:14Uh, yes, you're right.
24:15So, the artist painted with her fingers.
24:17Her name is Loribel Sporowski, and, uh, she had some nerve damage in her hands.
24:21So, do...
24:22Oh, yeah.
24:22Wait, before or after?
24:23Right.
24:24Hence the...
24:25Hence the finger painting.
24:27Um, visual.
24:28Kim Kardashian's Skims released a new product.
24:31We've been doing shapewear for a really long time, and now we are going to offer...
24:37Now she's going to offer what?
24:39Daniel?
24:39Is it straight jackets?
24:41Yeah.
24:42Alex?
24:43I think those are cut-offs from Kris Jenner's old face.
24:45Is that...
24:47I don't know what I'm feeling.
24:49They've been doing shapewear, now they're going to offer Denise.
24:52I think I know what this is because, you know, I...
24:54Of course, I do Kim shapewear.
24:56Um, the...
24:58It's a...
24:58It's a mask for...
25:00For the chin.
25:02For sculpting the chin.
25:04Yes, it's...
25:05It's shapewear for your face.
25:06Look at that.
25:07And, uh, all the big stars are wearing it.
25:09I'm already feeling 10 years younger.
25:15I'll tell you what, Khloe Kardashian is looking good, Tom.
25:19What's, um...
25:20What's shapewear?
25:22What's shapewear?
25:23Well, it's a fart-trapping, um, like a tight sock around your midsection.
25:29Right.
25:30Um, and I think maybe all men should have to wear it to understand...
25:34The pain?
25:35The pain.
25:35Basically, imagine all...
25:36You know, all your leather stuff with the buckles?
25:38Oh, OK.
25:40Similar.
25:40It does hold everything in, Annie, but then your fat's got to splodge out of it.
25:46So it sort of comes up out of your armpit.
25:51I was once trying to get out of mine, and my husband walked in, and I went,
25:54Get out!
25:56Oh, it's disgusting.
25:57I...
25:58I'm not going to name names, but I was at an event, television event,
26:02in a toilet, and I heard this big bang, and an actress had passed out
26:08because she was trying to go to the toilet with a shapewear, and...
26:13Anyway, I don't...
26:14Firstly, you said you wouldn't tell anyone.
26:16Secondly, thank you for calling me an actress.
26:20What happened?
26:24We've got to take a break.
26:25Playing Gracie Darling premieres on Paramount+, Thursday, August 14th.
26:29Would you please thank Annie Maynard?
26:31CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
26:45We're back, and it's time to put each of our cadets individually under a spotlight.
26:48Tomorrow, we lay to rest one of the icons of world wrestling,
26:52the great Hulk Hogan, and we thought,
26:54what better time to look back at the storied history
26:56of this wonderful sport.
27:00So...
27:00Controversial.
27:01Wow!
27:04Let's get ready to rumble!
27:10You know there's a clip, a question, and we can all move on.
27:16Daniel, let's start with you.
27:22Daniel, it's 1984, and Mean Gene is in the locker room
27:26about to interview Hulk Hogan,
27:27who's just claimed his first WWE Championship
27:30after an epic battle against the Iron Sheik.
27:34The brand-new World Wrestling Federation champion, Hulk Hogan.
27:38You proved it to thousands and thousands of fans.
27:41You know what's up, Mean Gene?
27:42They proved it to themselves.
27:44All I asked was for the whole WWF to stand behind the Hulkster,
27:47and I told him I'd bring it home for the USA.
27:50I feel the energy.
27:51Hulkamania's running worldwide,
27:53and it just turns beyond me, Gene.
27:55And I felt every one of those 25, 30-plus thousand people with me
27:59standing behind me all the way, and it felt great.
28:01Well, you have arrived, Hulk Hogan.
28:03Have you ever seen anything as beautiful as this, BG?
28:06Daniel, we'll stop it there, because that interview gets interrupted.
28:10OK.
28:10By what?
28:11I'm thinking someone comes in with a chair.
28:14Who did you say...?
28:14It gets interrupted, and you are correct.
28:16Someone comes in...
28:18Yeah, who...?
28:18The Iron Sheik comes in, chair to the head.
28:21He goes down.
28:22It's on again.
28:24Royal Rumble starts again.
28:25You're so close.
28:26It's actually not an enemy.
28:27It's a colleague who comes in.
28:29Of course, Hulk...
28:30His wife comes in with a chair.
28:32It takes him down.
28:34Sadly, I'm a bit close, but I can't quite give it to you.
28:36Let's take a look.
28:37Everybody out there is...
28:38Oh!
28:39What a...
28:40Oh!
28:42Oh!
28:43Andre the Giant!
28:45Andre the Giant comes in with champagne to celebrate.
28:48Sorry, Daniel.
28:49Can't give you the points.
28:51Andre the Giant's in need of shapewear, isn't he?
28:53That way...
28:54I need some Spanx there.
28:56All right, moving on.
28:57And, uh...
28:58Alex.
28:59Let's tag you in.
29:01Get a grip on this intense wrestling moment from WWE's Monday Night Raw.
29:08Braun Strowman, though, quick of the cap.
29:09Going to meet Big Show up at the top rope.
29:11Big Show looked like he was going to come off the top.
29:13Now Braun Strowman looking for a superplex.
29:16Perhaps on his own.
29:17Strowman at Big Show.
29:18No way.
29:19Above the ring, Big Show going to the top rope now.
29:22What?
29:22No way.
29:23This can't be possible.
29:26This can't be possible.
29:28Braun Strowman, nicknamed the Monster Among Men,
29:31he's climbed onto the ropes with Big Show.
29:33What happens next?
29:34I have to admit, I've never watched wrestling in my life.
29:37What?
29:37I've only ever seen men that look like that once,
29:39and it was at a march for pride.
29:41OK.
29:42Good for them.
29:44And I don't think that's what's going on.
29:45I can't tell.
29:46Well?
29:47Maybe...
29:47One had a big beard.
29:49Yeah.
29:49I don't know.
29:50Does he grab him by the beard and go,
29:51woo, woo, woo?
29:53Given you're not a wrestling fan, Alex,
29:55I'll give you...
29:56They tumble off,
29:57but then something quite unexpected happens.
30:00OK, so they do kiss.
30:01OK.
30:02That would be...
30:03That would be unexpected.
30:03Final answer is they kiss.
30:05Alex, if you think they kiss,
30:07let's take a look.
30:08What on earth?
30:09Oh, my God!
30:11Oh, my God!
30:12What?
30:12I kid you not,
30:14these two gargantuans
30:15just collapsed the ring.
30:17Extraordinary.
30:18Sadly.
30:19No kiss.
30:20No kiss.
30:21Oh, well.
30:21Maybe next time.
30:22All right.
30:23Maybe next time.
30:23OK, uh...
30:24Chris.
30:26All the way from Christchurch, New Zealand.
30:29We're heading east now,
30:31where former Japanese police officer
30:33turned pro wrestler,
30:34Takayuki Yuiki,
30:36has been fighting an eight-man tag team.
30:39Let's go!
30:40Yeah!
30:41Oh, my God!
30:43Let's go!
30:44Oh, my God!
30:45Oh, my God!
30:47Oh, my God!
30:49Oh, my God!
30:49Oh, my God!
30:50Oh, my God!
30:50Oh, my God!
30:50Oh, my God!
30:50Oh, my God!
30:50Oh, my God!
30:51Oh, my God!
30:52Oh, my God!
30:53Oh, my God!
30:55What does he pull out of his spandex leotard?
30:59Gosh!
30:59He's really...
31:01He's reached it?
31:02..feels like he's going to bring something out.
31:05Well, they often refer to it as a foreign object.
31:08I refer to that as that as well.
31:12OK, I think it's like a Mary Poppins situation.
31:15Whoa, whoa, whoa!
31:16Let's keep those hand pumps to a minute.
31:19I'm getting excited.
31:20There's a maximum of two on the 10 network, sir.
31:23I think he's going to pull out, like, a, um...
31:25..like a clothes hat stand.
31:27Like, a decorative scarf.
31:30I use that as a decorative scarf.
31:32No, a hat stand, like Mary Poppins.
31:33No, no, no.
31:34We really need some points.
31:35Chris Parker, no, Parker, no.
31:36You've got to get into a straight-ass wrestling mindset challenge.
31:41A can of links Africa.
31:49Yeah.
31:49Yeah.
31:50Yeah.
31:51Yeah.
31:51Yeah.
31:51Yeah.
31:51What would you do if you had eight men coming at you?
31:54No.
31:58What did I do?
32:00You've got to go with a spray can.
32:05So your answer is he takes out, like, a spray can.
32:08Yes, links Africa.
32:10Yeah, one, two in the eyeballs.
32:11All right.
32:12Let's find out.
32:19All right.
32:19The front row have failed to get this segment off the ground.
32:23Denise.
32:25We're going back into the archives now
32:27for Australian World Championship Wrestling,
32:29and Dick the Bulldog Brower
32:31was trying to psych out the opposition.
32:34You bum, you!
32:35You suckered me in that ring
32:38when I wasn't watching you, cocks,
32:41and you picked me up
32:43and you hurt my neck, cocks.
32:46You hurt my neck.
32:48I'm going to beat you.
32:50I'm going to crush you.
32:52So, Denise, he's ducked out of frame.
32:54What happens next?
32:56Well, of course, the night I had with him,
32:58he was...
33:01He's trying to demonstrate how tough he is.
33:04Yeah, so he's picked up a woman's...
33:11body is...
33:13..like, and gone.
33:16She's did a lot of...
33:17Why are you pointing to your arse?
33:21He's pulled something big out of his bottom.
33:26I don't know.
33:27He's sitting on...
33:28Oh, he's sitting on his stool.
33:32Oh, my God.
33:33A chair.
33:34He's pulled the chair out
33:36and he's smashed it over someone
33:40and his eyes pop right out of his leg.
33:45I think what Denise has said in summary
33:48is he takes out a chair and smashes it
33:51over, say, himself.
33:54Oh, um...
33:55Please just say himself.
33:57Yes.
33:59Yes, he smashes it over himself
34:01because he's having a low self-esteem day.
34:05Let's take a look.
34:06You can't hurt me, sir!
34:08You can't hurt me, sir!
34:10Denise is on the board, baby.
34:13All right.
34:16And to bring this thing home, it's Ed.
34:19Finally down for the count,
34:20let's take a look at this iconic moment
34:22from WWE's SummerSlam Slobberknocker
34:25from 2022
34:26where Roman Reigns,
34:28a.k.a. the Tribal Chief,
34:30is in a last-man-standing battle
34:31with Brock the Beast Lesnar.
34:34Roman Reigns, the champion,
34:35looks like he has absolutely nothing left.
34:39And Brock Lesnar's in beast mode right now, Corey.
34:43I mean, Roman Reigns...
34:44And Brock's behind the wheel
34:46in a damn tractor.
34:46What?
34:47Roman Reigns and official Chad Patton
34:50now on the count of three.
34:51Reigns is down.
34:53Middle of the ring.
34:54I have no idea what the hell
34:55Brock Lesnar's trying to do here.
34:57Ed, what is Brock the Beast Lesnar
35:00trying to do?
35:01First things first,
35:01I'm not saying they're on drugs,
35:02but that's the women's championship.
35:06Look, any...
35:08He's gone into a tractor,
35:09so obviously he's got something in mind.
35:10He's got something planned.
35:11I mean, the only thing he can do
35:12is lift up the ring.
35:14Ed, let's see if you're right.
35:15Where the hell is he going?
35:17Oh, jeez!
35:17Corey, get the hell out of there!
35:19Lesnar's lifted up the ring!
35:20We've got a way, it's in it!
35:21With a damn tractor,
35:23Reigns falls out of the entire ring!
35:25Ten points to Ed,
35:26and we're for soon.
35:27That brings us to the end of...
35:31Get ready to rumble!
35:34Come on!
35:35Back with more,
35:36have you been paying attention
35:37right after this?
35:52We've been paying attention to hands-on buzzers.
35:56Well, another week,
35:57another humble statement from the President.
35:59I'm good at building things,
36:00and we'll get it built quickly and on time.
36:02It'll be beautiful.
36:03Top of the line.
36:04What's he proposing to build?
36:07Alex.
36:07A new island.
36:10Not an island, anyone?
36:13Yes, Denise.
36:14A ballroom.
36:15A new ballroom at the White House,
36:17and as always,
36:18Donald Trump is being very humble about it.
36:20There's never been a president
36:21that was good at ballrooms.
36:22I'm really good.
36:24See the guy in the back?
36:26Yeah, that's Triple H.
36:27That's a wrestler, yeah?
36:27Yeah, he was a wrestler
36:29who is now sort of CEO of the company.
36:31Sorry, that was really sad,
36:32because I knew that.
36:33That was...
36:35And the golfer as well,
36:36on the other side.
36:37Who's the golfer, Daniel?
36:37That's Bryson DeChambeau.
36:38Oh, is it really?
36:39Wow.
36:39And that man in the middle,
36:41that's the president.
36:43We've clarified the funny.
36:44And that man behind him.
36:46Yeah.
36:46Just wandered into your house.
36:47He just...
36:48Yeah.
36:48He was here.
36:50Yes.
36:51To Beijing, where...
36:57Why is the head monk
36:59being stripped of his robes, Daniel?
37:00New movie, Magic Monk.
37:02Wow.
37:04I've watched it.
37:05I've watched it.
37:06I've watched it.
37:07Why is...
37:08Why is the monk
37:09being stripped of his robes?
37:10It's multiple scandals.
37:13Inappropriate dealings
37:14with women, embezzlement,
37:15all sorts.
37:16Yes, improper conduct with women.
37:18To a scary moment
37:19during a Spanish air show.
37:28What caused the pilot
37:29to suddenly veer off course?
37:31Daniel?
37:31A lady flashed him on the beach.
37:33Yes.
37:33That would be distracting.
37:36Chris?
37:36This is why you have
37:37to put your phone
37:38on airplane mode.
37:40It's what's happening, people.
37:42Thank you, Chris.
37:43You can actually sort of see it
37:45momentarily in the footage
37:45there of what happened here.
37:46He was dodging birds.
37:48Yeah, a flock of birds,
37:49apparently.
37:49He had to take a base of action.
37:50Tell you what,
37:50the Spanish Air Force
37:51is a bit of a worse, aren't they?
37:52They set one bird
37:53and they would just go
37:54straight through, wouldn't we?
37:55Yeah, exactly right.
37:55Straight through.
37:56Thank you, Tommy.
37:56That is exactly what you do.
37:59Point to yours, Ed.
38:00All right, it's time
38:00to pull on the activewear.
38:11Well, it's been a massive week
38:12for Aussie swimmer
38:13Molly O'Callaghan.
38:14What's she done?
38:15Chris?
38:16She's the first person
38:17to ever get out of the side
38:18of a pool gracefully.
38:19It's not easy.
38:21It's not easy.
38:21I think she's done a bit of that,
38:22but this is quite epic.
38:24She won a race,
38:25freestyle in Singapore.
38:26But she's won more
38:27than one race.
38:28Daniel?
38:29Didn't she...
38:30She's passed Thorpey
38:31for the most gold medals
38:32at her?
38:32Close enough, Daniel.
38:33Equal to apparently 11 gold
38:35at the one championship.
38:36Well, at 43,
38:37Serena Williams
38:38is rumoured
38:39to be doing what?
38:40Chris?
38:41Turning 44.
38:46Technically, yes.
38:47Sport round is my round.
38:52She is returning to tennis.
38:54Yeah, make it a comeback
38:55to protest.
38:57Yes, Daniel?
38:58Does it look like
38:58she has four legs
38:59or is it just me?
39:02Do you reckon
39:02she should play doubles?
39:06Make it look great.
39:07Would she be quick?
39:08She would be quick.
39:09All right, moving on
39:10to a heartwarming moment
39:12at Indianapolis.
39:18What's driver
39:19Bubba Wallace
39:20celebrating?
39:21Daniel?
39:22He's the youngest driver
39:23to compete in the race.
39:27Denise, what's Bubba
39:28celebrating?
39:28That's the trophy.
39:30You get that trophy.
39:32Ed?
39:33He's holding up
39:34his co-driver,
39:35Grant Denya.
39:36He is.
39:39None of you
39:39are taking this seriously.
39:41Chris, if you get this,
39:42Chris, I will.
39:43I will be shocked
39:44and thrilled
39:45if you get this.
39:47Did he win a race?
39:50She's correct.
39:54He did the whole thing
39:56with the baby on board
39:56sticker on the back.
39:58Chris, apparently
39:59he broke a
40:00hundred race
40:00winless streak
40:01so that was why
40:02it was so...
40:03Easy, guys.
40:04But, point to yours.
40:05Lionel Messi
40:06popped up somewhere
40:07unexpected this week.
40:11Where was he spotted?
40:13Dead.
40:14That's a bit of fun.
40:14That is the...
40:15He's on the
40:16Coldplay kiss cam
40:18and that is
40:18Ronaldo's wife.
40:19Exactly.
40:21It was the Coldplay kiss cam
40:22in Miami.
40:23Points to yours out.
40:24Champion strongman
40:25Hafthor Janssen
40:27smashed a world record
40:28this week.
40:29What was it?
40:30Come on, Parker.
40:31OK.
40:33I'm guessing it's not
40:34like lacrosse.
40:35Yeah.
40:37Weightlifting?
40:38Yeah.
40:38He lifted the most weights.
40:40Yeah.
40:41Give me an exercise.
40:42Give me an exercise.
40:43It was the...
40:44It was...
40:45deadlifting.
40:46Oh, my God.
40:48The deadlift world record
40:49lifting an absurd
40:51505 kilograms.
40:51Take a look.
40:59We've got to take a break.
41:00Back with our winner
41:01right after this.
41:12We're back.
41:13Let's close this show up
41:14with a little
41:14rapid recall.
41:17And tonight's
41:17rapid recall
41:18is once again
41:18proudly brought to you
41:20by our very good friends
41:21at Yui.
41:21As a man who doesn't
41:22endorse a lot of things
41:23once said...
41:24You haven't shopped around
41:25until you've tried Yui.
41:26Come on.
41:27I could not have been paid
41:28to say it better myself.
41:30All right.
41:30Start that up.
41:31Clock.
41:32Big news from Virgin.
41:34Passengers will soon
41:35be allowed to travel

41:37Chris.
41:37Dignity.
41:38Is...
41:38That's important.
41:40You checked that on.
41:41Daniel.
41:41It's pets, I believe.
41:42I can now take my snakes
41:44on a plane.
41:44Well, I don't know
41:45where they draw the line,
41:47but certainly cats and dogs.
41:49It's official.
41:50Carmela will not be running
41:51for what position?
41:53Daniel.
41:53Wing attack on her
41:54bedding tank.
41:56But she ruled this out
41:57this week, didn't it?
41:58Yeah, governor of California.
41:59That's it.
42:00And people are now thinking
42:02because...
42:02Oh, because?
42:03...leaves her options open
42:05for another tilt
42:05at the White House.
42:06Ah, another loss.
42:07That'll be good.

42:12Jesus.
42:13Denise.
42:13That they're still alive.
42:14Yeah, well, I've been celebrating,
42:16but it sort of relates
42:18to their longevity.
42:19Daniel.
42:2060 years.

42:22Kim Yo-jong,

42:33many months ago.
42:34Denise.
42:34Uh, karaoke
42:35with any less than
42:37five microphones.
42:39No, no, good call
42:42from our dear leader's
42:43sister.
42:44She has refused
42:45to go to negotiations
42:46with South Korea.
42:47Yeah, they're still
42:48trying to end technically.
42:49No, well, our dear leader

43:00I'm lactating.
43:02OK.
43:07That is great.
43:08I don't know either,
43:09but I'm thirsty.
43:10OK.
43:11That's fine.
43:12Go.
43:12That's fine.
43:16OK.
43:18OK, that was a
43:19Freudian slip, I think.
43:20Or a Freudian myth.
43:21Thanks.
43:23Just be aware
43:24of what title.
43:24Chris, isn't this like
43:25the oldest baby
43:27or something?
43:27Because it's like
43:28a thought-out
43:30embryo.
43:31Chris, I'll pay that.

43:40who've had cancer

43:44I'm glad you look
43:45suitably sad.

44:10on that,
44:10I heard they didn't
44:11even bring up
