I thought that was an ageist, but anyway, I digress. Let's get into the interview. Roland Naufal So I've got the first question Tim. I saw you speak at a gig a couple of years ago. And as a comedian that is now treading into the disability space and the disability sector has, it reaches the high point of political correctness as you know at times. Do you find yourself editing yourself, changing your humour to fit into disability or Just stuff them and get on with it? Tim Ferguson Well, not really Roland, mainly because the great thing about people with disabilities is, you know, most of us have already made the Jokes. It's usually the other people who are like, oh, should I, should I say, or they'll meet me, and then afterwards they go, oh no, I can't believe I was saying, I will Interview with Tim Ferguson (1 April 2020) not stand for that, when he's in a wheelchair, he's in a wheelchair, it's like I'm in a wheelchair, I'm over it.

  • Doug Anthony Allstars Memorial Plaque Endorsement Ceremony Hot Ticket PR
    Doug Anthony Allstars Memorial Plaque Endorsement Ceremony Hot Ticket PR 3pm Wednesday 19 September RSVP to [email protected] At last, the controversial Memorial Plaque celebrating the Doug Anthony Allstars (DAAS) will be endorsed by the founder of the musical comedy trio. DAAS were a Canberra comedy trio. They became an international success, with British TV shows ‘DAAS LOVE’ on the BBC, ‘Viva Cabaret’ on Channel 4 and comedy specials on HBO. At home, they made the award-winning The Big Gig and Daas Kapital. Their tours broke comedy box-office records worldwide. DAAS have been described by comedian Paul Livingston as “The best thing to come out of Canberra since Queanbeyan.” The endorsement of the plaque is long overdue. The plaque is a silver disc depicting the notorious trio. It has lain ignored at the centre of Petrie Plaza for years. Speaking from New York, DAAS founder Tim Ferguson said, ‘It’s embarrassing. We forgot our memorial! I blame Richard and Paul.’ Paul McDermott and Richard Fidler were swift to cast blame back at Ferguson. ‘He forgot, not us,’ said Fidler. ‘We were aware of the plaque, we just didn’t care about it.’ The questionable taste of the comedy group’s material made enemies. Former Canberran TV actor/producer, Neil Pigot, had famous conflicts with the trio in the 1990s. Pigot recently described the plaque as ‘an outrageous eyesore’ and ‘a blight on the beautiful face of Petrie Plaza’. Ferguson will be snipping a ribbon at the site of the plaque 3pm Wednesday 19 September. He will announce plans for further memorials around Civic, Belconnen & Woden Plaza.

  • Top Pick Tuesday 2 October 8.30Pm
    1 Top Pick Tuesday 2 October 8.30pm Exposed: The Case of Keli Lane Award winning investigative journalists Caro Meldrum-Hanna and Elise Worthington pry open the police investigation into the mysterious disappearance of Keli Lane’s baby Tegan, making surprising discoveries that throw into question just how thorough the police really were. Four years after baby Tegan vanished, in 2000 Manly police begin their investigation. But the police have lost crucial time. As Caro begins to examine what happened, a mysterious figure makes contact offering new information. In 2004, after a series of excruciating police interviews in which Keli Lane answered questions about her missing child without any legal representation, her secret world of hidden pregnancies is about to be publicly exposed with a referral to the NSW Coroner’s Court for an Inquest, bringing her life crashing down. Police efforts are focused on confirming whether the child is dead or alive, and also on finding the father Keli nominated, a man called Andrew Norris or Morris, with whom she said she had a brief affair in the summer of 1995, ending in an arranged secret adoption. But when one of the biggest searches in Australian history fails to find any trace of Andrew Norris/Morris or Tegan, the police’s Missing Persons Inquiry becomes a full-blown murder investigation. After forensically examining thousands of documents and scores of witnesses, Caro and Elise crack open the police investigation. With breakthrough interviews Caro uncovers witnesses who shed new light on Keli’s movements. Elise unearths a new player who reveals fresh details about Andrew Norris/Morris, casting further doubt on the soundness of the police investigation, throwing the door of possibility wide open.
