Don Lane, an honorary Australian all the way. It was a very sad day when we learned of his death. He was much loved in Australia and brought so much laughter, support and love to us; truly an end of an era. Don...Australia solutes you and thanks you for what you gave us xxx ooo
Those were the days of great entertainment, I mean who comes close to the brilliance of Paul Hogan now? I grew up watching The Don Lane Show, even went in a couple of times to be part of the studio audience. One night a mate of mine appeared on a segment called 'Newton's Nuts' and his act was a send up of Don. Don was very gracious and saw the funny side of it. We lost not only a great entertainer but a great bloke when we lost Don Lane.
One of the greatest influences on Australian television. It was a privlege to be a part of the generation that got to enjoy him. RIP Don - Australia is in your debt & you will be sorely missed.
RIP Donny Lane a true Legend taken from us too soon sadly to Dementia related Alzheimer's Disease hope your enjoying your time in Heaven with the other famous ones that we all know and admire by
This was funny as. Also very free-masonic. Notice Don giving approval to the higher-ups in the crowd with hand signals. A year later, Paul Hogan starred in Crocodile Dundee. All in all, one of the first Aussie roasts. Hoges was funny indeed.
I dunno who it was who wrote this material .. but it deserves a Logie !! These comic lines are FABULOUS !! There's some classic scripted lines here .. now, all of you take note .. if you leave this comic material lie dormant, long enough .. people will forget the stuff, you see .. & then you'll be able to use some of these memorable lines for yourselves .. if ever you're called upon to MC a send-off or a roast for someone important ...
Turns out Hogan use to fly by the seat of his pants on most of this stuff. His Academy Awards Speech was not rehearsed and they never allow anyone to go on unrehearsed .
Back in the days where non pc comedy was truly great. As opposed to the pc talentless crap of the today. Rip 🙏 Don and all the greats of the better times
I truly miss the days when TV was enjoyable when nobody was thin skinned or politically correct and we all had a good laugh at ourselves..... and most of all agenda groups weren't even on the horizon.
That was bloody marvellous....only hoges could pull that off ....today it most probably be frowned upon by PCorrectness has ruined comedy now comedy is as dry as an arabs sandal and about as funny as a kick in the testimonials , from steel toe capped boots 😳
The got resolved and he was falsely accused and it was female Journalist from The Australian Newspaper that dug deep and found the tax department were cashing shadows.
With all the shit now on television these great days of Australian entertainment are over. Channel Nine needs to sack Peter Costello and get rid of all those crap reality shows and garbage that they get from America and produce local entertainment again.
