00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:37,839
Just so you know,
177
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,599
that's come directly fromlittle Charlie himself.
178
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,159
He doesn't know the first thingabout news.
179
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,479
He doesn't see the electionas
a news event, Helen.
180
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,959
He sees it more as being a, um...
181
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,359
..a network branding event.What?
182
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,079
And he has decided thatour
network brand is, uh...
183
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,079
..backyard barbecue.
184
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,719
What does that mean?Dennis?
185
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,519
He reckons that networks
are likedifferent kinds of food.
186
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,119
Yeah? So, the ABC is likea plate of vegetables.
187
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,999
But then you haveyour roast chook, right?
188
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,959
Your Sunday lamb!Mmm.
189
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:10,439
Backyard barbecue.
190
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,719
He just wants the tone to be relaxedand
irreverent, OK? That's it, so...
191
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,239
Are you even listening to yourself?
192
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,559
Um, I can check with the dataanalyst,
but it was my understanding
193
00:09:22,560 --> 00:09:24,999
that 7:45 is more of
a likelihoodthan a guarantee.
194
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,119
OK, thanks, Noelene, but there'snothing
we can do about that.
195
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,039
Also, I don't thinkPaul Keating's an exclusive.
196
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,679
I think he's appearingon several networks.
197
00:09:30,680 --> 00:09:33,639
OK, thanks again, Noelene!
Nothing we can do about that!
198
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,479
No other news directorwould sign off on that.
199
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,879
That is not true, OK?The ABC has comedians!
200
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,999
You know that guy that doesthe impersonations?
201
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:41,239
Lindsay, shit, we've got to go.
202
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,079
Dale, now that she's hadher little showboat,
203
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:47,119
I don't want any more hissy fitsabout
this, because...little, uh...
204
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,399
..little Chuck has investeda
lot of money in News At Six
205
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:50,759
and, mate, he's not happy.
206
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,119
He always seems upbeat.(LAUGHS) Yeah, right.
To your face.
207
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,439
Do you know what he called
you twothe other night?
208
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,039
"The silver couple of news".
209
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:58,999
Sometimes you're"the bronze couple of news",
210
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,879
and sometimes you're dangerouslyclose
to "polished turd" territory.
211
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,119
But our ratings have been consistent.Jesus, Dale!
212
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,879
The amount of money he has
spent,he doesn't want consistent,
213
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,420
especially on election night,
andespecially given the competition!
214
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,559
MAN: Out of the 10 previouselections
that you've hosted,
215
00:10:17,560 --> 00:10:20,199
which ones in particular stand out?
216
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,679
Well, it's hard to go past '69.
Gorton versus Whitlam.
217
00:10:24,680 --> 00:10:26,919
And you were the firstto call that one, correct?
218
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,239
Just after 8pm. Over an
hourbefore the competition.
219
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:32,599
Oh. (CHUCKLES)
220
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,479
Well, over the years, you, uh...
221
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,319
..you develop an understandingof
the key swing seats.
222
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,959
It paid off in '69, and
I'm sureit will tomorrow night.
223
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,759
What about you, Kay?
224
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,439
Any, uh, childhood memoriesof
watching Dad on election night?
225
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,719
Uh, I remember always loving it.
226
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,719
It's the one night Mum let me
eatsausages and chips for dinner.
227
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,679
Ah.(LAUGHS)
228
00:10:58,680 --> 00:11:00,239
And will it be sausagesthis Saturday?
229
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:01,719
Oh, of course!
230
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,199
With Kay back from London,
I'll be doing all the favourites.
231
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:06,519
(CHUCKLES)
232
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,439
Geoff, Saturday's alsothe first time
233
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,359
that you'll be in direct competitionwith
your former colleagues
234
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,199
at the News At Six.
235
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,279
You've had some strong words to
sayabout the News At Six in the past.
236
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,719
Well, I've said allI intend to say, Keith.
237
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,879
Yeah, well, nothing to adda year down the track?
238
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,159
We'd, of course, liketo thank the viewers
239
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,799
for all their cards and letters
240
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:31,359
and to assure them thatGeoff
is absolutely thriving.
241
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,639
The new network is wonderful
242
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,759
and we're just lovingliving
a little closer to the city.
243
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,959
But can I just ask, have you
hadany contact with Helen Norville...
244
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,719
Let's move on, Keith.
245
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,599
Yep. Uh...
246
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,479
(CLEARS THROAT) Well, uh...
247
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,519
Thank you very much. Um, we mightjust
get a family photo if we could.
248
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,959
Kay, would you mind justsqueezing
up a little bit,
249
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:57,439
we'll get a family shot?
250
00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,479
That'd be great. Thank you.

We so appreciate it, Cheryl.
254
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,239
Um, are we still on for the 5th?
255
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:09,959
If that's alright.
256
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,479
I'd hate to get you into
troublewith the News At Six.
257
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,879
Oh, no, no.I just don't tell 'em. (CHUCKLES)
258
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,079
Oh, thank you.
259
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,999

Thank you. (CLEARS THROAT)

That went well.
262
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,159
Mmm.
263
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,999
I do think it'd be worth doinga
little bit of afternoon radio.

265

Enough!

Oh, take the dress.I bought it for you.
267
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,199
I'm OK.
268
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:44,319
Oh, it looked really lovely, Kay.
Very feminine. Stylish.
269
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,479
Yes. It's the height of '87 style.
270
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,079

do I use the per diemsor do I charge the room?

Officially, the per diems.

the room and pocket the cash.

could I ask you to have a quicksquiz

7:15! Wow.Yeah.

I ran the resultsfor '77, '80 and '83,

and in each case, the systemwould
have the winner by 7:15.

Yeah, I thought I could say
414
00:20:26,360 --> 00:20:29,679
what's always stood out to me
aboutAustralian elections is the teeth.
415
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,319
And then we'd super up pictures

of Howard, Hawke, Peacockand Keating's teeth,
417
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:35,679

before you can convincinglycall for a winner?

It WAS live footage, Noelene,
OK?Because it was dark there!

00:24:26,360 --> 00:24:27,879
Wrap it up. 10 seconds.
518
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,679
Charlie's rung my staffwith joke suggestions
519
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,839
before three of my shows -they were all terrible.
520
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,279
Yeah, so you justignored them, right?
521
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,039
Oh, no, I said them.But I've got no integrity.
522
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:36,399
You stick to your guns.
523
00:24:36,861 --> 00:24:40,239
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen,
524
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,639
and welcome backto Election Night '87.
525
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,159
Where the nation decides.
526
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:48,719
We have 21% of the vote
countedin the seat of Forde
527
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,959
and appear to be seeinga swing to the opposition.
528
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:53,719
Is that right, Geoff?(DOOR OPENS)
529
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,359
KAY: Just me.GEOFF: That's right, Paddy.
530
00:24:55,360 --> 00:24:57,439
And Forde, as you know,is in Queensland
531
00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,039
and it is, of course, a swing seat.
532
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:00,479
How's he going?
533
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,479
EVELYN: Uh...it's still early.
534
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,839
I got the sausages.
535
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,159
I'm alright.Oh, are you sure?
536
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:09,599
It's tradition.
537
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,400
Yeah, I'll just havea drink, thanks.
538
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,559
Is Scott joining us?
539
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:18,279
What?
540
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:19,919
It's over with Scott.
541
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,959
When did that happen?Last week.
542
00:25:24,120 --> 00:25:25,999
Oh, darling.
543
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,239
Come on, Mum. Don't pretend
likeyou're not happy about it.
544
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,479
No, of course I'm not.
545
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:32,919
No, he was a very...
546
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:35,519
He was a pleasant man.
547
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,439
You hated him.No!
548
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,079
No, I just wondered if
he hadenough drive for you.
549
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:43,919
Well, he's pissed offwithout paying the rent,
550
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,839
so I don't have that $200.
551
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:48,279
He's a prick.
552
00:25:48,501 --> 00:25:53,239
Well, do you want your
fatherto call him about that?
553
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,399
No, it's just...it's $200.
554
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,439
Well, technically, your
fatheris Scott's landlord...
555
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,679
Mum, I've just told youI've broken up,
556
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:02,279
and you're chasing rent.
557
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:04,959
Sorry.
558
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,759
Sure you don't want the sausages?
559
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:11,599
Fine.
560
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,519
TV: The voting booths were
openat eight o'clock this morning,
561
00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,839
and there was an early morningsurge to vote.
562
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,199
By lunchtime,the crowds had thinned to...
563
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,599
Yes, I called his campaign office.
564
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,199
They directed meto his electorate office.
565
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:23,479
RAY: Eight. Seven.
566
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,439
He's the treasurer of Australia.
Someone must know where he is.
567
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,320
Can you at least give me the
nameof the venue in Bankstown?
568
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:34,119
Well, we are just a quarter of
anhour away from that crucial moment,
569
00:26:34,120 --> 00:26:37,679
so, Australia, clear away the
dinnerplates and top up those drinks,
570
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:42,439
because as per the News At Six
7:45guarantee, the moment is imminent.
571
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,119
HELEN: So, Trevor,with 4% now counted...
572
00:26:44,120 --> 00:26:45,359
Yeah, that's better.
573
00:26:45,360 --> 00:26:47,119
..is the Datamax system
showingany emerging trend?
574
00:26:47,120 --> 00:26:48,479
Wouldn't say solid, though,would you?
575
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,359
TREVOR: So far, I can confirmthat
the vote is down for Labor,
576
00:26:51,360 --> 00:26:53,199
but not necessarily down evenly.
577
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,279
So there is a negative
swingagainst the government?
578
00:26:56,280 --> 00:27:01,359
In some places, yes. DefinitelyNew
South Wales, but not in others.
579
00:27:01,360 --> 00:27:03,959
In fact, their vote is
upin some surprising places.
580
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,519
So...yeah, i-it may or it may notbe a swing.
581
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,839
Well, Gerry Carrollthinks he's identified
582
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,919
a surprising factor at playin the 1987 campaign.
583
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:15,519
Gerry, can you illuminate us?
584
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,239
Why, of course, Dale.
585
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,479
Now, for me, this election hasall
been about the dental work...
586
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,119
Is there a problem?What? No, no, no, no, no.
587
00:27:22,120 --> 00:27:24,199
I'm just...I'm just, uh...I'm just inputting.
588
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,559
You said 7:15.It's just turned 7:30.
589
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,199
Yeah, well, the program was builtto
work off national swing, so...
590
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:30,999
Is 7:45 at risk, Trevor?
591
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,879
OK, the way it processesis...is...is...is...
592
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,839
D-d-d-d... Look...look,
I could explain it to you,
593
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:38,959
or I could just keep inputting
dataand actually get us there,
594
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:40,319
which is what I think you want.
595
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:41,679
..teeth take up most of his face.
596
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,439
With what little space that's
leftbeing dedicated to his eyebrows,
597
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,919
it leaves you in a position of
notbeing sure what brush to reach for.
598
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,279
(CLEARS THROAT) Uh...
599
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:53,199
Paul Keating, on the other hand,
rarely if ever reveals a tooth,
600
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:54,679
for obvious reasoning.
601
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,959
Paul, I'm narrowing my focus
tothe eight seats I'm listing here.
602
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,519
Could I ask you to update me as
soonas any of these figures come in?
603
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:01,679
Yeah.
604
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,719
And also, let me know what
happensat 7:45 on News At Six.
605
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,079
(CHUCKLES) OK.
606
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:07,719
800 calls you made - for what?!
607
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:09,479
His office said they tried to call.
608
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,159
It was a last-minute changejust this afternoon.
609
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:12,839
The results were looking tight,so Keating wanted
610
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,799
to stay in Bankstowninstead of come to Canberra.
611
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:16,879
Fuck me sideways!Just give me this.
612
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,399
Send the link truck to Bankstownand
do it as a live cross.
613
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,759
Well, I HAVE sent a link truck,
but there's a technical issue here.
614
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,559
Our OB van isn't getting returnaudio.
They can't work out why.
615
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,279
But right now, Keating wouldn't
beable to hear us. We need a studio.
616
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:29,879
Give me that thing, will you?
617
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,679
Listen, Noelene,I want you to tell me this.
618
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,199
I want to hear it from you
619
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,279
that both our relentlesslyadvertised features -
620
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:39,239
the 7:45 verdictand Paul fucking Keating live -
621
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:40,719
has come a gutser!
622
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:41,999
Y-y...yeah, just...
623
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,599
There's a studioin Parliament House.
624
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,839
They use it for live crossesevery
now and then, OK?
625
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:47,519
You're gonna have to sendDale or Helen there.
626
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,319
How far away is it?I don't know! It's Canberra!
627
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:50,439
It's a glorified country town.
628
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,279
Look, I'm just gonna makesome
phone calls, right? Just...
629
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,639
Is that off?! Have I turned it off?Er...
630
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,479
BOB HAWKE: I thinkwe'll win, but, uh...
631
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,719
..it's just sillyto jump in too quickly.
632
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,239
INTERVIEWER: Certainly,you wouldn't be...
633
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,640
So, I hear you're a bit ofa sailing man, Charlie?
634
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:07,879
Not really.
635
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,919
HAWKE: ..and John Mildren's got
someground to make up. That's one...
636
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:12,119
You've got one minute, Trevor.
637
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,959
Sorry, I presently cannotfocus my left eye.
638
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,039
I think...I think...I
think that we just have to...
639
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,199
..we just have to say that theguarantee's
just not gonna happen.
640
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:20,399
No, we can't put it like that.
641
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,239
We have to say thatwe're in uncharted territory,
642
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:23,719
that we're on a knife's edge.
643
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:25,759
But it might not actually bea knife's edge.
644
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:27,759
OK, we're a ship tossed at sea.RAY: And in 10!
645
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,079
That doesn't even make any sense.
Just take the CEO out of your head.
646
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,319
I'm not thinking of the CEO.Jesus Christ!
647
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,039
"The result has defied the
mostadvanced computer technology,
648
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:36,780
"and all we can do is sit and wait."OK.
649
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:42,039
Well, ladies and gentlemen,we
have hit that crucial time of 7:45
650
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:45,519
and we have found ourselvesin
uncharted territory.
651
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,639
HELEN: They saythat the news never stops.
652
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,279
Dale, I think we can add to that.
653
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:54,599
The news can never trulydeliver a guarantee.
654
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,039
What, is that a sledge at the promo?
655
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,159
With 5% of the vote now
counted,the results have defied
656
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,679
our state-of-the-artDatamax computer system.
657
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,199
So, ladies and gentlemen...Jesus Christ!
658
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:04,639
..you're just gonnahave to keep watching,
659
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,599
'cause it looks like we're
infor a roller-coaster of a night.
660
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,479
There are a million peoplechanging
the channel right now.
661
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,119
I should... Should I go get Lindsay?
662
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,039
Who dropped the ball here, mate?Was it Noelene?
663
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,319
Uh, no. Absolutely not. But sh.
..I'll just see if I can find him.
664
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,079
Do that, get rid of the data bloke,
665
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,919
and tell Lindsay to get
Keatingon that fuckin' desk.
666
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:25,519
Alright.
667
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:26,959
(QUIETLY) Hey.
668
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:28,399
The News At Six didn't call it.
669
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,479
They're still just readingindividual
seat results.
670
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,959
(LAUGHS) I would describe itas very boring.
671
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,239
I need you to give meone more update on Barton
672
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:39,199
and, uh...one more on Rankin.(CLEARS THROAT)
673
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,119
Rankin and Barton. OK.
674
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:42,399
And, Paddy?
675
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:45,599
I'd say five minutes.
676
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,439
(COUGHS)Five. Four...
677
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,319
PADDY: Well, let's have
a lookat some of the ALP seats
678
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,079
where the Liberal Party is leading.
679
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,119
First up, Chisholm -Chisholm is in Victoria,
680
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:02,639
currently held by Helen Mayerby a margin of 0.2%.
681
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,119
The Liberal Party candidate,Dr Wooldridge,
682
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,959
has run a veryhigh-profile campaign.
683
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:13,199
Dr Wooldridge is sitting on47.
6% of the primary vote.
684
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,119
If that trajectory maintains,
685
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:19,199
Dr Wooldridge will probably
bethe new member for Chisholm.
686
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,119
Well, ladies and gentlemen,
687
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:25,039
Mr Walters has been furiouslydoing
his sums, and...
688
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,639
..and, uh, it looks as though
hehas something that he wants to say.
689
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:29,839
Geoff?
690
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:32,799
GEOFF: Yes, Paddy.Oh. Kay.
691
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,759
Now, thus far,we've been focused on the...
692
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:36,959
Darling?
693
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,119
..percentage of the overall
vote,but in fact, the result...
694
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:40,399
Kay?
695
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,759
..is always going to be
dictatedby the number of seats.
696
00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,999
Is he calling it?I think so.
697
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,399
The Labor government came
in tonightwith a 16-seat advantage.
698
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:52,359
Their overall vote is clearly
down,but, Paddy, as I see it,
699
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:54,999
for the Labor governmentto lose tonight,
700
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,439
they would need to lose the
fivefollowing seats, and they are...
701
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,759
..Hinkler, Barton,Rankin, Bendigo and...
702
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,039
..Hawker.
703
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:06,719
As it stands,
704
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:12,199
I believe Labor can bevery
confident holding all five.
705
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,279
So, on the basis of that,
706
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:18,679
I am prepared to declare
Labor,the Hawke government...
707
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,239
(APPLAUSE IN BACKGROUND)..the winner tonight.
708
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,959
..is Peter Paroulakis...(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
709
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:24,439
..and the Labor...
710
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,959
Well, Dale, it sounds like some
goodnews has emerged from down there.
711
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:35,519
PADDY: You heard it here first.Geoff Walters...
712
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,199
(LINDSAY LAUGHS)
713
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,719
..veteran of so many federalelections,
has declared that...
714
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,959
Ohh! Live telly, eh? It's likejuggling
eggs on a roller-coaster!
715
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,279
But, mate, Charlie, I think we'redefinitely
well and truly on track.
716
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:47,759
..a convincing victory.
717
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:49,599
Walters just called it for Hawke.
718
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:50,879
..convincing, Paddy.
719
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,039
There's clearly a lot
ofvoter discontent out there,
720
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,639
frankly, both sides,but ultimately, it was the...
721
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,239
Lindsay?Mmm?
722
00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:58,599
..Coalition losses in Queensland...
723
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,159
Where is Paul Keating?
724
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:03,359
Do you think this loss will
markthe end of John Howard...
725
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,239
Dennis, where is Paul Keating?
726
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,319
Certainly not. I don't think so.
John Howard put in a...
727
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:09,799
(GRUNTS)
728
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,239
(APPLAUSE CONTINUES)
729
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:12,959
We might...
730
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,119
We'll go to a breakand we'll
be back with so much more,
731
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,599
including, hopefully,
that resultin just a moment.
732
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:22,879
Geoff just called it for Labor.
733
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,719
What? What? No, hang on, hang on.
734
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:26,959
I-I don't know how you can say that
735
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:28,999
with so little ofthe
West Australian vote counted.
736
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,759
Trevor, I'm gonna have
to ask youto step off camera
737
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:32,119
for the rest of the telecast.
738
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:33,879
Come on, mate. 30 seconds!
739
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:35,959
I-I-I'm just... 10...
10 minutes.That's all I need.
740
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,300
Dale and Helen will callthe result themselves.
741
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,359
Yep. OK.I'm really sorry.
742
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:45,679
Um...
743
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,999
I also have a Keating update.Yeah?
744
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,919
I think we still have him,but not on our desk.
745
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,599
He didn't come to Canberrathis afternoon.
I'm so sorry.
746
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,719
There's a link truck alreadyheading
out to him in Bankstown...
747
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,239
OK, so then it's just a cross?
748
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,559
Yes, but unfortunately not with you.
749
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,439
Our OB van is having issues withreturn audio.
We need a studio.
750
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,479
And the closest studio isout in Parliament House.
751
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,919
OK, well, that's...that's..
.that's 10 minutes. We can do that.
752
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,639
No. No. Hang on, hang on.
..I can get us there in 10.
753
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,439
Including leaving here andsetting
up is probably more like 20,
754
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,439
and Charlie's demandingthat
he be interviewed right now.
755
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,239
You get me Charlie Tateon the phone right now!
756
00:34:14,240 --> 00:34:15,759
I don't have his number!RAY: Here we go!
757
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,199
I don't care what he thinks.Helen...
758
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,799
Tell Parliament we're using thestudio.
We'll be there right now.
759
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,679
If we don't have a Keatinginterview,
then all we've got
760
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,559
is a failed guarantee and somefucking
jokes about Hawke's teeth!
761
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:26,519
Go, go! As fast as you possibly can!
762
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,519
Welcome back to the nationaltally
room in Canberra,
763
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:36,159
where a sense of jubilation has
takenroot amongst the Labor supporters
764
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:37,519
with the breaking news
765
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:41,399
that Bob Hawke will be re-
electedprime minister of Australia
766
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,639
for a historic third term.
767
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:44,919
(ENGINE STARTS)
768
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:46,759
NOELENE: Um, head out and turn left.
769
00:34:46,761 --> 00:34:50,759
REPORTER: What areyour celebration plans now?
770
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:52,519
Oh, uh, several cups of tea.
771
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,679
(LAUGHTER)
772
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:58,399
This is gonna be the highlightof
the telecast, trust me.
773
00:34:58,400 --> 00:34:59,719
RAY: 30 seconds!
774
00:34:59,720 --> 00:35:03,119
So, um, are you just imaginingmore
comedic observations or...?
775
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,839
Just ask me the same questionsyou'd
ask a political analyst
776
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:07,319
and let me answer.
777
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,919
Don't worry about being funny.
778
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:11,279
Thanks.
779
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:12,999
Hey.And here we go.
780
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,279
What's that?It's straight vodka.
781
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:19,079
I haven't had a sip of waterall night.
782
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:20,759
Seven! Six!
783
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:22,959
Uh, my face goes red with spirits.
784
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:24,639
You're wearing make-up.
785
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,839
A victorious Bob Hawke therein Melbourne
786
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:28,759
after a third election victory,
787
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:33,079
and with me now is noted politicalanalyst
Mr Gerry Carroll.
788
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,279
So, Gerry...Mmm?
789
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,679
You told me thatKeating was on his way.
790
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,079
Er, Charlie...it'll be on in a second.
791
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,559
It'll be well worth the wait.
Keating will put on a good show.
792
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:44,119
You just sit tight.
793
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:45,919
GERRY: Uh, well, Dale,
794
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:49,319
I think Johnny will probably movetowards
his natural calling in life,
795
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,479
which has always beensuburban solicitor...
796
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:52,479
Right.
797
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,199
..and I think we shouldbe happy for him.
798
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,999
NOELENE: No, no, no, no, no. Sorry,
I meant the next one. The next one.
799
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:58,479
Sorry!
800
00:36:02,061 --> 00:36:07,279
So, ultimately, this result
comesas no surprise to you?
801
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:08,559
Oh, no.
802
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,199
Look, Dale, I havemy very own election barometer,
803
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:12,519
and it works every time.
804
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,759
What you do is you look at thenumber
one sportsman in that country
805
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,999
and you ask yourself,who would they vote for?
806
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,839
Here in 1987, it's clearlyWimbledon
champ Pat Cash,
807
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,279
And if you imagineMr Cash sitting there
808
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,559
weighing up Hawke versus Howard...
809
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,319
..well, there's really no question.
810
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,279
I like this. This is a better tone.
811
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,639
Yeah, it's not bad, is it?Yeah. Yeah.
812
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:36,839
Absolutely. (CHUCKLES)Absolutely agree.
813
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,719
In 1954, he skolstwo and a half pints of beer...
814
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,599
OK.Put that on that shit background.
815
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,319
Beg your pardon?Can you help me?
816
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,759
What? Oh. Yes.Go on the other side.
817
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:03,239
Um...Keating's eyeline is tothe
screen, not to the camera, so...
818
00:37:03,240 --> 00:37:04,359
Just match that?Uh-huh.
819
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:07,180
MAN: Trig, could you getin
Keating's position, please?
820
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,239
What time is it now?Uh, 20:13.
821
00:37:10,240 --> 00:37:12,719
20:13. OK.It's still good. It's still good.
822
00:37:12,720 --> 00:37:13,959
OK.
823
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,039
Now, did you say he lost
votesin his own electorate?
824
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:17,559
Uh, yes. 5%.
825
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,559
5%. OK, great. Um, good.

(CLEARS THROAT)
827
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:24,839
And, Gerry, if you had to
nameone highlight from tonight?
828
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:26,759
Well, apart from the biscuits, Dale,
829
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,799
I think my highlight was
learninga few brand-new words.
830
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,399
My favourite being 'scrutineer'.
831
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,479
Well, a potential new careerfor you, Gerry?
832
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,039
Well, look, all I know about
it,Dale, is that they scrute,
833
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,999
and God knows...I've always
beenpartial to a quick scrute.
834
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:41,799
Well, famously so.
835
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:45,559
Right now, ladies and gentlemen,

855

then get an opportunityto propose ourselves
856
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,399
to the government, to the caucus.
857
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:39,039
But that's a matter for our partyand,
uh, it'll all occur in its time.
858
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:42,639
Opposition Leader John Howard
had tocontend with a lot of disunity.
859
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:47,599
You enjoy total party unity,
but your personal vote was down 5%.
860
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:48,879
She is grilling him.
861
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:50,639
Do you feel that you won tonightby default?
862
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,879
KEATING: I think there's a lot
ofrewriting history going on today.
863
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,039
She looks great.The government won this election.
864
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,039
I think Mr Howard debasedthe political currency.
865
00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,319
I mean, I think he ran
866
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:03,319
on the most disreputableand
irresponsible financial policy
867
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,759
of any leader in this countryin the last 20 years
868
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:08,159
and he deserved the lossthat he's taken.
869
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,199
And so I'd guess thatyou would prefer John Howard
870
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:11,639
to stay on as Opposition Leader
871
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:15,119
as opposed to returningthe
leadership to Andrew Peacock?
872
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,159
Oh, she's going for it.
She's going for it. Good girl.
873
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,279
But as far as Peacock's concerned,
874

Wh-what it waswas it was the guarantee.
1033
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:32,559
(LAUGHS) Mate, we didn'teven have to deliver!
1034
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:33,919
It was just the promise of it.
1035
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:35,919
It was a stroke of genius, mate.Well done, you.
1036
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:37,959
Yeah, I actually thinkGerry
was the main drawcard.
1037
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:41,439
He was good. He was good, wasn't
he?Surprisingly to some people.
1038
00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:44,039
But, you know, I like to thinkthe, um.
..the whole team...
1039
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:47,719
You were right about Dale.He's getting there.
1040
00:49:47,720 --> 00:49:49,479
It's just, uh...
1041
00:49:50,720 --> 00:49:52,679
..Helen.
1042
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:54,039
Yes?
1043
00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:57,559
Mate, she was great under Geoff.
It's just, as a headliner...
1044
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,719
I don't know what it is.
I think she's just sort of...
1045
00:50:00,720 --> 00:50:04,319
..too dominant over Daleand
she's really aggressive and...
1046
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:06,319
I reckon we give hera
couple of months to pull it in.
1047
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:08,239
If she can't...
1048
00:50:08,240 --> 00:50:10,519
..we talk replacements.
1049
00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:11,959
Sure.
1050
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:13,719
Sure. No complaints this endon that.
1051
00:50:13,720 --> 00:50:15,399
But, you know, it could bea little bit tricky.
1052
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,159
They, uh...
1053
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:18,479
..they are a couple.
1054
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:21,119
Yeah, it's not my problem.
1055
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:24,559
No. Of course it's not. It's theirs.
1056
00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:26,759
Good plan. Very good plan.
1057
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,439
Well, happy days.And well done.
..well done again...
1058
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:30,799
(HANGS UP)
1059
00:50:43,381 --> 00:50:47,399
I mean, did he showany humility at all, or...?
1060
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:50,719
Well, you know, he was.
..he was Charlie. (CHUCKLES)
1061
00:50:50,720 --> 00:50:53,759
But, um, he did saycongratulations. So...
1062
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:55,399
Ah.Well, that was nice of him.
1063
00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:58,359
I think...I thinka toast is called for. Uh...
1064
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:02,239
To the person who will
appreciateour victory the most.
1065
00:51:02,240 --> 00:51:04,439
Here's to Geoff Walters.
1066
00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:06,879
(LAUGHTER)He can blow it out his arse!
1067
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:09,239
(ALL CHEER, APPLAUD)
1068
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:51,599
Dennis asked me todayif we were a couple.
1069
00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:53,159
What did you say?
1070
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:56,999
If you don't see us havinga
future together, just tell me.
1071
00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:59,479
You know what's at stake
for meif we tell the office!
1072
00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:01,559
Breaking news fromthe heart of Melbourne
1073
00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:04,079
as terror unfoldson a Clifton Hill street.
1074
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:07,559
The whole country is on
the brinkof a colossal change
1075
00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:09,159
and it is our job to report it.
1076
00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:11,959
A civilian was ableto walk into a shop...
1077
00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:13,999
Ohh!..on High Street and walk out
1078
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,039
with a military-grade weaponmade for war zones!
1079
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,919
Am I cutting around that or.
..?No. I mean, we should keep it.
1080
00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:21,879
Run the bloody things, then.With a big graphic.
1081
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:23,319
"First on the scene."Oh!
1082
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:25,159
If it bleeds, it leads.
1083
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,159
And the approach takenby the network in question
1084
00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:29,199
represents a troubling new low.
1085
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,120
Mostly they're complaints about you!
1086
