Can anyone tell me what this is from?

theworld · 30th Apr 2009, 07:14 PM

I agree. Hilarious! I wonder who made that.

Jeimuzu · 30th Apr 2009, 07:21 PM

At about 0:33, the host looks like he's about to start giggling.

This is all an act it was done by John Clarke, who played Senator Bob Collins, and Bryan Dawe, the interviewer. Clarke and Dawe did this as part of their A Current Affair spoof segement. However the event is real and it happened on July 21st 1991.

Clarke plays Senator Bob Collins, 1946-2007, member of the Australian Senate and the Minister of Shipping. He is an embarrassment. He commited suicide 3 days before he went to court for child pornograhpy, indecent assault, carnal knowledge and sexual intercourse without consent.

Ahh, that makes sense. I could tell it was fake - it reminded me of a few sketch shows I love - but I couldn't find out who did it.

Cool Beans · 1st May 2009, 08:40 PM

We've watched that in my physics class a few times. Everyone seemed reluctant to believe me when I said it was fake.

KittyBoy · 1st May 2009, 09:30 PM

Well you can tell them that it is fake, because I happen to know John Clarke personally. John and Senator Collins look nothing alike, considering that Collins was slightly overweight and John is as skinny as a twig. Collins had hair and John did not.

I did a google image search for Bob Collins and he's NOTHING like the guy who plays him, so I'll second that even though I don't know the guy. Cool that you know him though ahaha!

By the way... slightly overweight?

KittyBoy · 2nd May 2009, 06:42 AM

Jamie I was 'trying' to be kind, lol. He was always a coward, a disgusting coward.

TriBi · 2nd May 2009, 07:17 AM

Yeh - Clarke and Dawe have been doing their political parodies for years. Very clever stuff.

KittyBoy · 2nd May 2009, 09:44 PM

The funniest part about it was that they never ever went bad, they remained consistant.
