Good News for Aussies

By : LinzySaturday, 6 February 2010 | 23 comments

Wow, there hasn’t been any news in a while but that changes right now!

For all you Aussie folk reading this, be sure to tune in to Ten on Monday at 8:30pm.

I’m sure some of you are thinking, “but that’s when ‘Good News Week’ is on,” and you’d be right because, along with Jimeoin, Kitty Flanagan and Colin Lane, Tim’s appearing on it so if you’ve ever wanted to see him take part in a comedy panel quiz show that isn’t ‘Spicks and Specks’ then now’s your chance!

I sent an email to channel ten saying that they should have you on, they sent me one back saying they where going to consider it and obviously they did! AWESOME

This is why there should be a universal television broadcaster… this way everyone could watch everything shown around the world which would make them become engrossed into everyone’s cultures and thus enhancing our understanding of one another.. all through comedy and things. Maybe it’s just a dream.

@OLANA, I do believe that’s the internet.

Universal television broadcasters would probably cut out the middleman (the googglebox/gogglebox) and then we’d have Tim mainlining into our brains, come to think of it, maybe that happens already, and even so it may not be too bad a thing… ah but just a dream for us in London…

I am SOOOO happy that Tim is appering on Good News Week, since it returned it has been missing something, and that something is the Rock and Roll Nerd that is Tim Minchin. i love Good News Week and now it all the more better now that Tim is appearing.
he is an absolute legend.

just watching this now…bloody hilarious…..

That was an AWESOME show. I haven’t laughed so hard since seeing Tim in Sydney :P That other guy he was sitting next to was a bit of a prick though…destroying the furniture and such.

Is it me, or did anybody else notice the uncanny resemblance between Tim & panel regular, Claire Hooper? The whole show I was waiting for a comment or some kind of reference to it… is there something we should know about? Their mannerisms are so similar, & their mouths are nearly identical! Not too mention that both are hilarious…!
Meanwhile, it was a great show – & Tim now has a new fan :)

tehe 6 legged milking horse! loved that joke all the way through

I thought the rest of the panel had trouble keeping up and also that they were a bit hostile towards tim… Jimoein was ok, but Kitty Flannagan was jealous and trying to hog the limelight and failing everytime, and, like yeah – that guy sitting next to tim… what the?! better off on friendly spick and specks….

You were really funny Timbo. Colin Lane sucks though!

Is there ANYWHERE we can see full episodes of GNW outside of Australia?? I love Tim and I love the show (or, at least, as much of it as YouTube can offer me) so PLEASE is there anywhere I can ACTUALLY watching it???
I feel as if you’re taunting me…
xxxxx

Kirstie – try iTunes. I know you can podcast all the shows on the Australian store so maybe you can get it internationally too? good luck
