Unfortunately the recording device didn't perform well when everybody spoke at once, which happened quite a lot, so this is really only a partial transcript. The human ear is much better at distinguishing separate voices than an audio recorder.Matthew da Silvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07158988637117138260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21277069.post-1154754811515996482006-08-05T15:13:00.000+10:002006-08-05T15:13:00.000+10:00Dean, what a labour of love -- thanks for going to...Dean, what a labour of love -- thanks for going to all this trouble, it's really useful for recalling the show. In all the Peter Cundall drama I had forgotten that remark of Jacki Weaver's about Jacobean drama, but in fact I think it was the most perceptive and intelligent thing anybody said all night. And that's not to diss the show, which I liked rather a lot, but rather in praise of Weaver, Kerryn Goldsworthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11270814460793882309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21277069.post-1154569298917401202006-08-03T11:41:00.000+10:002006-08-03T11:41:00.000+10:00Thanks for the review Dean, I'll definitely watch ...Thanks for the review Dean, I'll definitely watch the show from now on. The protagonist's LP music reviews in American Psycho are some of the funniest passages I've ever read... and I agree with Byrne, the book is actually highly moral.

The format sounds very much like News Night Review here in the UK which is on every Friday - the panel usually discusses one new release book, a play, an art exhibition and a film. It's hugely enjoyable if only because you're waiting for the first punch to land - I swear one day there's going to be a full-on fight on that show.kimbofohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01160466897342054963noreply@blogger.com
