The loss of this dear man was such a blindside that no-one speaks about him here. Or is it just me? How can it be that it actually physically feels like a beloved family member died even now? I know that what I feel right now in February 2021 , after this clip inexplicably appeared atop my KZread feed and that I actually watched, is palpable grief. No one else articulated the madness/absurdity of this world like these two. Diffused it. Served it up cold. What a pairing. Never again. No more words.

But can you explain what you thought bill shorten was going to do when he got into government. Like what was the fear everyone had about him.

It's gold. Shame we'll get no more. These two were clever together but Mr Clarke's broader comedy is a testament to his individual wit and writing genius. Going to spend my morning going over some of the old and gold while I digest it. RIP Mr Clarke.

It's a sad reflection on the state of modern media that satire like this, The Daily Show & The Onion as well as others often have better analysis of events than "real" news organisations
I think this was one of my all time favourites; I couldn't stop laughing when it was on the ABC TV had to watch it on youtube to make sure I got the words correct
Looks like the Scot(t) problem has since intensified.
Yep, it's a good thing it couldn't happen here.
RIP. thanks for the decades of entertaining memories
John Clarke was a national treasure.
As always, Clarke and Dawe on point. Love these guys :P
Still relevant in 2019.
This is one of their best. :D
I LOVE these guys - they really do understand what happened in the UK. It's good to know that our Aussie cousins have been going through the same!
Very funny skit and sad to hear that J C passed at a relatively young age. Thanks for the laughs and insight into what's really going on John.

Comic genius ,the Way they bounced off each other is rarely matched
Absolutely beautiful
I wish they were around for this week in Canberra 2nd week on November 2020 .
God I miss him.
very good -- you have to know the politics of 2 nations. excellent
Beautiful... ;)
The rare moment when Clarke is the straight man.
yep. fucken nailed it again boys.
It's still so good ❤
Brilliant stuff. I'm gonna miss these guys.
It doesn't always rain here, as it happened it did yesterday, but we had a dry day last week. The Scott problem brilliant.
Genius. Thank you. Crying with laughter
Recently discovered these two. Pure comedy class. (Unusual for Aussie comedy). I lived there decades ago, most comedy then imported from UK. Shame there'll be no new material .

Just brilliant
Brilliant . Maybe one of their last sketches together . Shame it wasn't one of the subject matter that died . Those bastards live on for eons .
Why does this get better than my wine?
Brilliant! I believe some people have missed the joke, at least as I interpreted it. Sometimes the British have been slow to recognize and accept that the problems which exist in other countries also exist in GB. Even if they do they are quick to blame it on inferior outside influences which have deceived the good people of this scepter'd isle.
this is so Brilliant .
"mistake" of leaning on democracy and letting the people decide. Nice one Clarke and Daw.
brilliant!!
Man what a duo
I'm sentimental about the sea, too!
Brilliant, as always. Their timing is perfect, too. What's Brian doing nowadays?
Just had a federal election in Canada, with 3 years left in the governing party's term and yep they could have been discussing Canada too !
LOL! OMFG! That was hysterical!!
Prescient! 'nuff said!
