00:00No, not that one. Smells.
00:03Final show tonight, Mr. Sean?
00:05Yes, episode 10, series 5.
00:08Not bad for an old sketch comedian, eh?
00:10You're fired, Roz.
00:13Hey, this should be a happy occasion.
00:15Shut up, Veronica. You weren't even in this series.
00:17Of course, we're very lucky to have been here at all this year.
00:20Actually, let me tell you a story.
00:21Happened earlier this year, long before we were even commissioned.
00:30Good afternoon, fellow ABC employee.
00:36Very chipper today, sir. Not been sacked, I take it.
00:38No, no, on the contrary.
00:39I've just been promoted to chief programmer
00:41with no loss of pay or smug sense of public service entitlement.
00:44Oh, congratulations, sir.
00:45Anyway, I thought to myself, why put off today
00:47what I can't do tomorrow because of an RDO,
00:49pop down to archives,
00:51in order that I might select the 2015 Wednesday night comedy line-up.
00:55Very admirable, sir.
00:56Only thing is, pickings are a bit slim this time of year.
00:58Charlie Pickering starting a new show in April
01:00involving a chair and table.
01:02And that's eaten into most of the light entertainment budget.
01:04Oh, poo.
01:05Plus, we've got Bruin coming back on in September
01:07and Will Addison does not get out of bed
01:09for less than $1,200 a year.
01:12Tell you what, I could do you a 2009 series of QI
01:15and some wood I like to use.
01:17Nothing homegrown?
01:18I've got some repeats of The Agony of Life.
01:20Comedy night, remember?
01:22Hey, sorry, sir.
01:23What about Upper Middle Bogan or It's a Date?
01:25Well, snaffled up by iView for binge viewing, I'm afraid, sir.
01:28Utopia?
01:28Gone to, sir.
01:29Please like me?
01:30Sorry.
01:30Moody's?
01:31No.
01:31Laid?
01:32Took the lot.
01:32They've even got Frontline up there, sir.
01:34Do you have anything classic?
01:35Fawlty Towers, Ripping Yarns, that sort of thing?
01:37All on UK TV these days, sir.
01:38Fried Lorry?
01:39No.
01:39Blackadder?
01:40No.
01:40Ab Fab?
01:41No.
01:41Young Ones?
01:41Sorry, sir.
01:42Alas, Smith & Jones?
01:43No.
01:43Mr Bean?
01:44No.
01:44Jigs & Worcester?
01:44Sorry, sir.
01:45The Baldy Man?
01:47No.
01:49Spaced?
01:49No.
01:49Little Britain?
01:50Sorry, sir.
01:50Little Britain USA?
01:51I'm afraid Foxtel have everything at the moment, sir.
01:54They've even got the Monty Python reunion.
01:56Fucking Murdoch.
01:58Any chaser we could repeat?
02:00Only the checkout, I'm afraid, sir.
02:01No, no, no, no.
02:04Nothing satirical that hasn't gone off?
02:06Hmm.
02:06Inspired by the events of this week, explored through fake interviews with strong and multi-layered
02:12performances.
02:13Exactly.
02:14And very much needed in this current time of political upheaval.
02:17And starring Australia's favourite comedian.
02:19Well, I can't speak.
02:20Clark and Dorr.
02:22Only runs three minutes, sir.
02:24It's enough to make you mad as hell.
02:26It's not too deep, sir.
02:28It's enough to make you mad.
02:58Thank you, thank you very much.
03:03Well, no, no, no time.
03:04No time for applause, ladies and gentlemen.
03:06It's our last show.
03:07We've got to get on with it.
03:08We have to dispense with the usual padding I do at the start here because we are so jam-packed
03:12tonight.
03:13In fact, we don't even have time to do the show itself.
03:15Good night.
03:16Giant baby.
03:20What's that?
03:21Absolutely.
03:22Well, apparently I'm contractually obliged to do the show, but we'll have to skip some
03:26of our old standby.
03:26So, no interviews with strangely named characters tonight.
03:29I'm afraid, Liet Neswart of the Michelle Grant Institute.
03:32Oh, that's a pity.
03:33I'm sorry we just don't have time.
03:35No time either for regular characters like Dolly Norman.
03:39Or Bobo Gargle.
03:41Or for more obscure characters like the always silent Father Beamish.
03:45But this is the first time I've ever had a line.
03:47Well, I'm sorry, Father.
03:47We just simply do not have the time tonight.
03:50Sean, this is outrageous.
03:51I've got a good mind.
03:52No, no, no.
03:52Crack it.
03:53We can't not crack it tonight.
03:54Sorry.
03:55Sorry.
03:56We don't have time.
03:57We don't have time.
03:58We just don't have time.
04:00We even had to bump the live crosses we had playing with real people like George Pell,
04:05Waleed Ali, Milo Kerrigan and, of course, our eye in the sky, Lois Price.
04:10Yeah, no worries, Sean.
04:11Tender strips of flame grilled chicken with whole leg mayonnaise and organic beetroot.
04:15That's this week's special hair and scalp treatment at Chantel's Hair Extension Factory.
04:20All hair extensions come with council permits.
04:23Mention this advertisement for a look of disbelief.
04:25I'm Lois Price for Madness, Al.
04:28Thanks very much indeed, Lois.
04:30No time for sport either with Caspar Jonquil and the team.
04:33But I don't host the sport.
04:36Also, regrettably, we don't even have time to meet new characters like Madness Hell Summer
04:40Season presenter, Gwademia Forrest.
04:41Oh, Sean, you're joking.
04:43Can we at least try it with a funny YouTube clip?
04:46Um, uh, this one here, for example.
04:48What?
04:49Oh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, who did that?
04:52No, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Gwademia, sorry.
04:54There just isn't time.
04:55Oh.
04:56In fact, I want to talk about so many things that have made me mad this week that I've had
05:00to divide them into separate levels of hell.
05:03Well, as you know, our treasurer, Joe Hockey, wants a national conversation about his tax
05:09discussion paper.
05:10Now, I want to talk about the content rather than the cover.
05:13I think the last thing, uh, last thing we want to do is get bogged down in why there's
05:16a colon between the re and the think.
05:18See?
05:18In the matter of think.
05:21It doesn't make any sense, does it?
05:23In fact, uh, re is an ablative of the Latin res, which means thing.
05:28But thing-think is even more meaningless, isn't it?
05:30So, uh, cover of Joe Hockey's tax discussion paper, into the bin.
05:34Thank you, indeed.
05:39Uh, but what about the rest of the document?
05:41And really, what's the point of coming to us for answers about tax when you should be
05:44asking the big companies who avoid paying any?
05:47Well, that's exactly what happened at the Senate Economics References Committee last week.
05:50Apple, Microsoft and Google all cooperated to a certain extent, although it depended on
05:55whether a compatible cooperating system was being used.
06:02As you'd expect, Google threw up a lot of answers, not all of them useful.
06:06The Microsoft guy was bland but functional.
06:09And the, uh, and the managing director from Apple didn't do quite what you wanted him to
06:13do, but was definitely sleeker and better looking than Microsoft.
06:16How much of the money we're overseas, how much of that $6 billion paid by a strange
06:20consumers went overseas?
06:22Can you please tell us that?
06:23I'll, I'll take that question on notice to give you a specific number.
06:26You've come to this inquiry, are you serious?
06:28You've come to this inquiry on, on tax minimisation, an aggressive tax minimisation, and you weren't
06:34expecting a question like that?
06:35Whoa, okay.
06:37Okay, settle down, Nick Xenophon.
06:38There's a much simpler way to get the information in my view.
06:42Siri, how much did Apple move offshore, uh, last year?
06:47I'll take that question on notice.
06:49To give you a specific number.
06:52Apple into the bin.
06:58But these weren't the only questions being asked by the Senate committee, some of which
07:02were even harder to answer.
07:03Now, let me, let me ask you, what is a double Irish sandwich with the Dutch affiliations?
07:09Uh, Senator, I have no idea what you're talking about.
07:13Oh, come on.
07:15Disgraced businessman and matters health finance expert, Davey Plumb, what is a double Irish
07:19sandwich with Dutch affiliations?
07:21Sean, it's a perfectly legal tax scheme where profits made in Australia on the one hand
07:25are paid to another arm of the company in Ireland as royalties or whatever, then paid
07:29to a Dutch organ, then handed back to a different Irish arm in a tax haven.
07:33Yes, that's interesting, but surely if the Irish contribution to the sandwich is either
07:37side of the arrangement and the Dutch bit is in the middle, surely it's more a Dutch
07:40sandwich.
07:41Isn't it?
07:42I mean, you name a sandwich after the filling, not the bread.
07:45For example, my, uh, my deviled egg and prosciutto sandwich would, according to Christine
07:49Milne, be called a bread sandwich with deviled egg and prosciutto affiliations.
07:53Some people call it a Dutch sandwich as well, Sean.
07:55Either way, the money ends up in Bermuda or the Cayman Islands.
07:58It's perfectly legal.
07:59Just sign here.
08:00All right.
08:02Dutch sandwich.
08:03The whole thing sounds a bit stinky to me.
08:05No, you're thinking of a Dutch oven.
08:09But what about the next level of hell?
08:12One reserved especially for...
08:14The 2014 budget.
08:17Now, I don't want to get all Peter Costello here.
08:19Who does?
08:20But there's a lot more than just Joe's head on the line with his budget.
08:23The Prime Minister's very leadership of the so-called Liberal Party may be on the chopping
08:27block as well.
08:28The polls must be a little worrying for Mr Abbott at the moment.
08:31May does health sophologist Clancy Lanyard?
08:33Well, yes, Sean.
08:34And while it's very easy to interpret the latest news poll showing Bill Shorten leading
08:38Mr Abbott as preferred Prime Minister 44 to 34 as a bad thing, I prefer to take a leaf
08:43out of the Prime Minister's pamphlet, adopt a glass-half-full approach and say that Tony
08:48Abbott leads Bill Shorten 44 to 34 as preferred opposition leader.
08:52Well, thank you very much, Clancy, for that refreshingly optimistic take on the government's
08:57woes.
08:57Well, just trying to appear impartial, Sean.
09:00Not easy in this hotbed of left-wingers.
09:03Tell me about it.
09:04I am.
09:07Now, there's already some evidence of a few of the old leadership contenders playing to
09:10the gallery, trying to catch our attention, just in case.
09:13They're subtle things that might not be apparent to the untrained eye, but when you've got
09:16a nose for this sort of thing, the signs are deafening.
09:19Right?
09:19Mad as hell, zeitgeist, pulse-taker, yana-nine-bottles?
09:22That's right, Sean.
09:23What do you think one of the chief reasons is for the PM's current popularity at the
09:27moment?
09:28Um, his dancing ability.
09:30Right.
09:30We all love someone who can dance.
09:34Ah, yes.
09:34Well, it's like his legs are a part of him, isn't it?
09:38So, judging from this portage, I think we can say that Scott Morrison has clearly thrown
09:42his hat in the ring, as has Julie Bishop busting out these killer moves.
09:47What about the Michael Flatley of Leadership Challengers, Malcolm Turnbull?
09:51Interestingly, Sean, very little footage of Malcolm surrendering to the muse.
09:56The only footage we could find was this shot of him from behind at the 1996 Midwinter Ball.
10:02Right.
10:08Yes.
10:09It's interesting, because he usually wears a shirt, doesn't he?
10:13He does.
10:13Yes.
10:15Fascinating.
10:17Yes, and it begs the question, who is Malcolm Turnbull, really?
10:27Our mad as hell unpaid intern put together this profile.
10:32Malcolm Elton Turnbull was the son of a Russian soldier, Victor, and an award-winning Bulgarian
10:37dancer, Denise.
10:39As a young boy, he worked in a coal mine and a knitting mill, and attended school in an impoverished
10:44inner Sydney suburb.
10:46At the age of 16, he underwent cosmetic surgery and became a woman.
10:51By his early 20s, he'd had the surgery reversed, before, just a few months later, losing a leg
10:57in a freak online banking accident.
11:00Forced to busk to raise funds for a prosthetic limb, he was twice arrested for busking without
11:05a permit.
11:05But how does all of this affect you and I?
11:10But how does all of this affect you and I?
11:15Only 27 more sleeps until Budget Night, and already we're wondering what anti-Santa will
11:19be taking from us.
11:21Mr. Hockey has said his budget will do more with less, and the public have responded with
11:25consumer confidence instantly falling 2.3%.
11:28Because it's difficult to do more with less, as anyone here at the ABC will tell you, even
11:32if you don't ask them.
11:33You know what they're like.
11:35Very fucking bullshy.
11:40This is going to air, Clancy.
11:41I think.
11:56But it's not impossible.
11:58Look at the miracle of the loaves and fishes, or what my own mother can do with a casserole.
12:03Now, I don't think any of us expects to be handed anything on a plate.
12:06For many Australians, the dream of sitting down to a plate of anything is beyond them.
12:09Even sitting down to an empty plate, which I should point out is preferable to my mother's
12:12casserole.
12:14But the government is prepared to meet them halfway.
12:16What we're saying is we're prepared to step up to the plate.
12:19But we've got to get behind the government here as they step up to feed off our plate.
12:24We can't expect them.
12:25Just because we've elected them to govern this country, they'll get on and do it by themselves.
12:29More importantly, we've got to stop sitting around and criticising them.
12:32There are plenty of armchair critics.
12:34There seem to be an enormous number of armchair critics out there.
12:41What's he on about?
12:42Why doesn't he stop standing around criticising us and start running the country in an economically
12:46responsible fashion?
12:48Bloody politicians.
12:49And I can't stand that smart-ass hosting either.
12:53Put it on to MKR, woman.
12:54Jackie and Shazza are making chocolate crackles.
12:56Yes, it's a good point and gets back to what we were talking about earlier.
13:01It's believed $60 billion is siphoned out of Australia to tax havens every year.
13:07$60 billion a year.
13:08I'm no expert, but I would have thought fixing that problem would go a long way to solving
13:11our own deficit problem.
13:13Fellow non-expert Jackie Lambie put the question to our finance minister, Mathias Cormann,
13:17recently.
13:17But he seemed reluctant to entertain the idea of new taxes on the eve of releasing the discussion
13:22paper about new taxes.
13:23Senator Lambie asked me, why don't we just increase taxes?
13:27But if we were to chase an unsustainable spending growth trajectory taking us to government spending
13:32of 37% as a share of the economy with tax revenue at that same level, we would kill the
13:37economy.
13:38We would make our economy uncompetitive internationally.
13:41We would cause massive increases in unemployment.
13:44And a pony.
13:52What about now, though, Finance Minister Spokesberg, Darius Horsham?
13:56Sean, don't bullshit on my leg and tell me it's a foul ditto.
13:59As Scott Marson has said, we need the cooperation of the business community, which includes these
14:04companies, to pressure labor and the crossbenchers to get our budget through.
14:08Plus, we don't know who those companies are exactly because the tax department won't tell
14:12us, and it would be extraordinarily unethical of us to simply look at the names on a register
14:19of campaign donations.
14:21All these companies appeared before the Senate Economic References Committee.
14:24Sean, you might as well call them the Senate Economic Girliemen Committee.
14:29It's like Matthias says, to increase taxes will kill the economy.
14:32If it's killed, how can we bleed it?
14:35Yeah.
14:36Yes.
14:37Yes, the Googles and the Apples and the news corporations may be eating a plate of open
14:42double Irish Dutch sandwiches over in the Singapore tax haven hotels, but these people are the
14:481% of job creators.
14:50What incentive is there for a news corporation to run the Australian if it's not as a tax loss?
14:55It's certainly not so we can all enjoy reading Gerald Henderson's Gollum.
14:59Thank you very much, Darius.
15:01Fantastic.
15:02Well, coming up later in the show.
15:06Coles denies deliberately misleading shoppers over freshness of its bread by issuing half-baked
15:11apology partly written months ago.
15:13And Prime Minister uses helpful gestures to explain complex metaphors.
15:18These aircraft make the strong arm of Australia longer.
15:27The David Attenborough Collection, the spectacular record of a lifetime spent documenting the wonders
15:34of the natural world.
15:36This 8 DVD box set includes Conquest of the Skies, Micro Monsters, Rise of the Animals, Triumph
15:44of the Vertebrates, Kingdom of Plants, Galapagos, Natural History Museum Alive, 60 Years in the Wild
15:55and the extraordinary David Attenborough's Rarely Occupied House, available now at ABC Shops.
16:04Australia is facing a blindness epidemic.
16:07Every day, 8 Australians will lose their sight.
16:10That's one in every 2,875,000.
16:14So take a look to the 1,437,500 people to your left.
16:18Now take a look to the 1,437,500 people to your right.
16:23And if you can't see anyone who's blind, then it's you.
16:28Well, welcome back.
16:29Time now for a bunch of mad as heliotropes to be presented to some lucky somebody by the
16:33media Sasquatch.
16:34Now one of the big reasons television will always be better than radio and print is because
16:43it can use moving pictures to illustrate a story.
16:46A case in point is this beautiful piece of work from SBS in the notoriously dry and tricky
16:50area of finance.
16:52Note how the pictures tell you just as much, if not more, than the words.
16:56Well, the Reserve Bank left the cash rate on hold today at 2.25%.
17:00I'll have the implications of that decision later in finance.
17:04Now that's both instructive and something of a sensory overload.
17:08The trouble is everyone's doing it now, so SBS need to think more laterally to stay at
17:12the cutting edge.
17:13Look how much more cool and informative that story could be, thinking outside the triangle.
17:18Well, the Reserve Bank left the cash rate on hold today at 2.25%.
17:22I'll have the implications of that decision later in finance.
17:25Well, I'd be very surprised if that's not the future of news broadcasting.
17:34And while we're handing out the bouquets to our free-to-air colleagues, simple and uncluttered.
17:40They're the keys to how Channel 9 is making some of the best television I've seen in a
17:44long time.
17:44Have a look.
17:45They make it look so effortless.
18:07Time now, though, for news from countries that aren't Australian.
18:09Proudly brought to you by Footage from Unused Sketches, an ABC cost-saving initiative.
18:16What's this I hear about the Immigration Department making a movie?
18:20The federal government has commissioned a $4 million telemovie as part of its anti-people
18:24smuggling communications campaign.
18:27They don't need to make a new film to discourage asylum seekers from trying to come here.
18:30Just show them Danny Deckchair.
18:33Anyway, unlike the asylum seekers currently detained on Manasana to Nauru, the film will be released
18:37later in the year.
18:39But to America now, and as it's music news, let's cross to Triple J podcast deleter for
18:46Veronica and Louis, Spackville of Ol.
18:53Yeah, sweet.
18:54Thanks, Grandpa.
18:55So, like, for music lovers the world over, American Pie means one of the greatest pop songs
19:01of the 20th century.
19:02For others, it means...
19:04Penises.
19:06In pastry products.
19:08But as a recording industry of America's fifth greatest song of the 20th century, it came
19:14as, like, no surprise when the original 16-page manuscript of Don McLean's six-verse epic sold
19:19at auction for more than, like, $1.5 million.
19:22Nord Orgel, senior artefacts advisor to the Minister for the Arts, George Brandis.
19:27Like, I understand that you've recently also, like, secured the original manuscript for, like, an equally iconic, like, Australian song, yeah?
19:35Yes, that's right, Spackfiller.
19:37And I'm pleased to announce that the government is delighted to have purchased for $4.50 the original lyrics to John Williamson's Give Me a Home Among the Gum Trees.
19:46Wow, you're kidding, like, $4.50.
19:50Yes, I know it's a lot, but it came with a frame.
19:52Yeah, cool, sweet.
19:55Back to you, Gandalf.
19:56Oh, thanks.
19:57Thanks very much, Spackfiller.
19:59Well, speaking of music and illegal downloads, several Australian musicians burned by the online cyber theft of their work have come up with a unique solution.
20:06The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra has lost tens of thousands of dollars through the illegal downloading of their popular album, MSO Live, Marla Symphony No. 6.
20:14But with the help of an obliging internet service provider and some fraudulently obtained metadata, the orchestra's string section have been able to identify and locate the person responsible for illegally file-sharing their work, thereby presenting them with the opportunity to even things up a bit.
20:29Fair enough.
20:30Send your entries to, yes, it is, security, A, B, etc., and you could be in the running to win.
20:36A Rothschild safety harness, because you know you can't watch them all the time.
20:42The Amophallus titanum, or corpse flower, is renowned for emitting the most pungent smell of rotting flesh.
20:48But because it usually only blooms every seven to ten years, in between times, fans of the plant visit decomposing carcasses wherever they can find them.
20:57Sean McAuliffe's rancid substitutes for the putrid stench of the corpse flower, Sunday, 7.40.
21:06Well, one of the big issues at the moment is the rise of the Reclaim Australia movement.
21:17As you probably know, they held a rally last long weekend, using Easter to promote the essentially Christian underpinnings of their message.
21:23Now, a lot of you are probably thinking, sure, a reasonable point of view.
21:30Reasonably expressed by an obviously reasonable man.
21:33But why would he wear a mask?
21:35Well, there's a long tradition of certain Christians sometimes covering their faces when they get together for a meeting.
21:40So, we shouldn't draw anything too sinister from that.
21:43Now, there's also those who oppose groups like Reclaim Australia, who preach tolerance and brotherhood, regardless of where you come from.
21:49Go home, you racist pig!
21:53Now, again, there might be some of you who might think it's odd that someone should be telling racists to go home because they're racist pigs.
21:58But that's because what's happening here isn't about race or religion.
22:02It's about freedom of speech.
22:03But does freedom of speech apply to chanting?
22:06Five, two, three, four, we don't want sharia law!
22:09Five, six, seven, eight, we don't want holla, mate!
22:13One, two, three, four, we don't want sharia law!
22:19Nice right, therefore hard to argue with.
22:27You're way ahead of me.
22:28But five, six, seven, eight, we don't want halal, mate!
22:31Is a bit of a stretch.
22:33Not very convincing.
22:34But like all of you, the big question that I have with all of this, of course, is how does it affect me?
22:40If there ends up being less freedom of speech, what happens to satire?
22:45Not just this show, but for breakfast radio hosts, online bloggers, and perhaps, as most importantly, newspaper cartoons.
22:54It's a question for the wisdom of the elders.
22:57Processed cheese stick?
23:10No, really, Bill, I couldn't eat another one.
23:11Oh, God.
23:12Bill, tell me, you used to be a political cartoonist for the Herald Sun and the Daily Telly many years ago.
23:18Yes, yes, that's right, I did.
23:19Yes, my job was to lampoon the government, if Labour were in power,
23:23or if they weren't to try and point out how ineffectual the opposition was.
23:26Yeah, and how did they take it?
23:28Well, they're all good sports, by and large, although I won't tell you who that was.
23:37No, they understood that it was all in good fun.
23:40Cameron Rudd, in particular, used to buy up all my originals,
23:43because papier-mâché was very, very popular in the therapy that he was undergoing.
23:47And what's the secret to a good political cartoon?
23:50Well, the trick is, with political cartooning, I think, is to try and approximate as much as possible the look of the politician, your drawing.
23:59It doesn't matter so much what they're saying or what their policies are, whatever.
24:03What's important is how much the cartoon resembles vaguely the actual person.
24:07And how would you capture, say, Tony Abbott?
24:11Well, there's a good example.
24:12The ears, obviously, the ears, and a pair of Speedos,
24:16and probably a small sign around his neck saying Tony Abbott, just to make sure.
24:20And Bill Shorten?
24:21Well, you see, it's very hard to draw Bill, because he hasn't got any features.
24:26I think the key to Shorten is the height, you see?
24:29Shorten, short, you see?
24:30Plus, there's a sign, I think, around his neck saying Bill Shorten, just to make sure.
24:33And what's your take, Bill, on this whole Charlie Hebdo satire thing?
24:39Well, I'm not sure.
24:40I'm not sure it is a satirical thing.
24:41From what I've heard, he's more a panel show guest, isn't he, or a soft news presenter.
24:45I liked him in Talking About Your Generation, but that was mainly because of the host.
24:49No, no, no, that's Charlie Pickering, Bill.
24:51Oh, I'm talking about Charlie Hebdo, the magazine.
24:54Oh, yes, I see, yes, of course.
24:56How about I do a cartoon of you, Francis?
24:59Oh, well, that would be delightful.
25:00Oh, OK, come with me to my studio.
25:03No, if you'll just recline provocatively on the bed.
25:08Is this absolutely necessary?
25:10Shut up and get your robe off.
25:21Well, I'm not coming up because we've run out of series.
25:25Julie Bishop crowned Miss Parliament 2015, fighting off stiff competition.
25:30Channel 9 finally announces this year's Logies host.
25:34And the mind-bending effects of ice, apparent as thousands queue to inspect properties from the block.
25:40Well, that's enough of me being as mad as hell.
25:47It's been a pleasure bringing this show to you for the last five years.
25:50I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
25:53Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
25:56I watch sea beams glitter in the darkness of Tannhouser Gate.
25:59All those moments will be lost in time.
26:04Like tears in rain.
26:08Time to die.
26:10But before we do, a kind of protest song now that I think encapsulates where the world is at the moment.
26:18If you look around, the whole world's coming together now.
26:30Can you feel it?
26:34Can you feel it?
26:36Can you feel it?
26:38All the colors of the world should be
26:41Loving each other
26:43Yes, it's all right
26:48Take my message to your brother
26:50And tell it's why
26:52Spread the word
26:54And try to teach the man
26:56Who is hating his brother
26:58With hateful truth
26:59It's pathetic, isn't it?
27:06I mean, at his age
27:07And with the sort of singing voice that he's got
27:09I mean, look at that
27:11It's just sad
27:12I mean, he can't even do a proper moonwalk
27:16Nope
27:16You won't catch me doing anything like that on my show next week
27:20Wednesday at 8.30
27:21He hasn't even got an ending
27:25Like, he had to get me to come in and do this
27:29Sad
