SHAUN MICALLEF'S ONLINE WORLD AROUND HIM                                   Back          Home
	The Micallef Programme (2nd Season) Radio Spots Written by Shaun Micallef and Gary McCaffrie Thanks to Shaun for contributing these to the site! Generic Ads 15 Secs - It's polarised critics and equatored audiences. Shaun Micallef's latest circumnavigation around the world of TV comedy certainly has one thing to recommend it - his mother. But she is ill and and cannot legally endorse products. Join Shaun Micallef and others on a whole new raft of comic shenanigans Friday 8:00pm on ABC-TV. Oh yes, it's called The Micallef Programme. Should have said that earlier - Shaun Micallef is something of a Renaissance man. Bad teeth, appalling personal hygiene, and a life expectancy of 33 are just three of the qualities which make him so. See him and others cavort for your amusement on The Micallef Programme Fridays 8.00 on ABC-TV. - Hi I'm Shaun Micallef. Watch my programme this Friday at 8 o'clock on ABC TV and you could win $50,000 if you buy an instant money ticket from a newsagent or wherever. I don't mean to suggest those two things are linked. I just thought you should be made aware of that facility. Thankyou. - Hi I'm Shaun Micallef. Make a date with me this Friday night at 8 o'clock on ABC TV but don't tell my girlfriend. (GOES SERIOUS NOW)  I'm serious, she'll psychologically terrorise you and then attack you. Probably with a blunt instrument. So please... tune in, but not a word, okay? The Micallef Programme Specific Ads Ep 2 Radio Promo -With episode 1 of the Micallef Programme having been hailed as "the right length" by programmers episode 2 adopts a more conservative approach. Tim Rogers from U am I cats about his new single, stand up comic Jean Steep does a tight five, and Shaun is abused by a bird. It's nothing you would ask for in a comedy programme and more. Fridays 8.00 on ABC-TV Ep 3 Radio Promo - This week on the Micallef Program Shaun broadens his range as an entertainer and adds Shakespearian acting, ventriloquism, stunt driving, and feng shui to his already impressively strung bow. The Micallef Programme is Australia's only comedy show to have been mentioned in Parliament. In the kitchens we believe. Fridays 8.00 ABC-TV Ep 4 Radio Promo - This week on the Micallef Program Shaun admits to a national audience that he is an intellectual, fortunately he is speaking through the ABC network so his secret is relatively safe. Floods, fire, famine, and death are all dealt with fleetingly as is Shaun's dislike of flutes and British soap opera. Remember, Shaun Micallef is Australia's only comedian who comports himself on television with a measure of dignity. Miss him at your peril. (He won't be there, I assure you). Fridays 8.00 ABC-TV. Ep 5 Radio Promo This week on The MIcallef Programme is the much anticipated "episode 5". This very special episode represents something of a departure for The Micallef Programme. During an interview with Miss Murray River Shaun has a flashback to when he shared a house with the cast of "English Have A Go". Shaun also takes us on a claustrophobics picnic and premieres a new panel show which we guarantee will make all the other panel shows on at the moment look like the same thing only less recently. Fridays 8.00 on ABC-TV. Ep 6 Radio Promo This week The Micallef Programme lifts the lid on Harold Holt and see if he's done. And we also serve up a slice of the new UK period drama 'Spiffington Manse". And if that's not enough to sate your ravenous apetite for sheer entertainment - and we do mean sheer -, we present the delightful "Non Sequitur Family Feud" for afters. Fridays at 8.00 ABC-TV plus GST. Enjoy. Ep 7 Radio Promo The penultimate instalment of the Micallef Programme features invisible poodles, identical twins who have never met, and the much vaunted clapperboard from the first episode of Rising Damp. Rarely has a comedy show promised so little. In other moments of hi jinx we visit the morgue, plus Royalty gets some take-away for lunch, and Shaun conducts a probing hypothetical on drugs and privacy. And good news for those ABC viewers who detest the show - it's over after just 27 minutes and five seconds. Fridays 8.00 ABC-TV. Ep 8 Radio Promo The final episode of the Micallef Programme contains all the traditional, cliched elements we've come to expect in the final epsiodes of comedy series:-  a transvestite on ice skates, a man holding a goose, and a firing squad. This week Shaun's eclectic comedy ranges across diverse topics, from cruelty towards children right through to cruelty towards the elderly. Fans of the series can also look forward to being let down and insulted by  some coarse, lowbrow material towards the end of the programme. But there is a poignant farewell. Interestingly, the programme identification number is VPCO9882V008. Fridays 8.00 on you ABC-TV.
