  • October 2008 Comedy Channel Highlights
    www.comedychannel.com.au OCTOBER 2008 HIGHLIGHTS THE MERRICK & ROSSO SHOW WORLD PREMIERE Thursday October 2 @ 8.30pm Continues Thursdays at 8.30pm Merrick and Rosso are back on the box where they belong, with the keys to the Foxtel car - and enough fuel in the tank to really cause some chaos! They’ll finally return to their broadcasting birth place at The Comedy Channel with THE MERRICK & ROSSO SHOW. So what’s on the cards for the new show? Each week the boys will front up before a live studio audience with their unique take on anything and everything. From what’s happening in the world of news to the big questions: Can you deep fry a watermelon? On THE MERRICK & ROSSO SHOW, celebrities will make regular guest appearances from in-studio interviews to recorded comedy pieces to show you a side of them never before seen. Into the mix will go plenty of studio audience interaction and more mayhem and stupidity than is legal in three states. For perhaps the first time, Merrick Watts and Tim Ross will truly focus the energy and excitement of their legendary sell-out live comedy shows and bring that force to the electric television. It’s hotter than Gordon Ramsay’s kitchen, is sure to top Brendan Nelson’s approval ratings and it’s ‘wronger’ than an Austrian family get-together. THE MERRICK & ROSSO SHOW will allow nobody to be immune from their parodies and sketch comedy. Finally, as Merrick and Rosso are keen to point out, “Put simply, the show is Morcambe and Wise meets The Star Wars Christmas Special at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting during The French Renaissance… on a weeknight.” Buckle up Australia, for a riotous half hour of THE MERRICK & ROSSO SHOW.

  • Women Matter News from Mcauley Community Services for Women
    Winter 2019 Women Matter News from McAuley Community Services for Women A message from CEO Jocelyn Bignold In the lead up to the Federal election there was a welcome focus on addressing the issue of family violence. Both major parties made commitments to a range of measures — preventative and early intervention strategies to tackle underlying causes, and frontline emergency responses to keep women and children safe. Whilst increased resources will help address the huge impact of family violence on our community, there is one significant aspect of our response to family violence that involves more than just dollars, and where it is proving difficult to make genuine progress. This is about the rights of people who are victims of family violence to remain safely in their own homes. Achieving positive change in the numbers who can do so has proven to be frustrating slow, because it involves quite significant shifts in attitudes and thinking. Conventional wisdom has been that women and children are the ones who must ‘escape’ violence. Our system is geared around places of The right of a woman and her child to stay home is also about ‘refuge’ and ‘safety’ and encouraging women to leave justice. We don’t expect victims of other criminal acts to homes that have become unsafe. While immediate crisis upend their lives, yet women and children pay this additional responses will always be necessary, the question of what price for the violence they have endured, because their happens next – because they are effectively homeless home, which should be a haven, is now unsafe.
