Hey Hey It's Saturday was a long running variety television program on Australian television. It ran for 27 years (there was a recess in 1978; see below), debuting on the Nine Network in October 1971 and broadcasting its last episode in November 1999. Its host throughout its entire run was Daryl Somers, who would later become executive producer of the program. Somers formed Somers Carroll Productions with Ernie Carroll, who was the puppeteer for Daryl's sidekick Ossie Ostrich. Image File history File links Hey_Hey_It's_Saturday_Logo. ...

History

The show originally started as an early Saturday morning children's program, but its freewheeling style, irreverent ad-libbing and subversive humour soon attracted a cult following among older viewers. Although the show bore the unmistakable traces of both The Goon Show and Monty Python, Somers was more strongly influenced by Australia's king of television comedy, Graham Kennedy, and it is significant that Carroll had been one of Kennedy's writers for many years. The Goon Show was a popular and influential British radio comedy programme, originally produced and broadcast by the BBC from 1951 to 1960 on the BBC Home Service. ... Monty Python, or The Pythons, is the collective name of the creators of Monty Python’s Flying Circus, a British television comedy sketch show that first aired on the BBC on 5 October 1969. ... Graham Cyril Kennedy, AO (15 February 1934 - 25 May 2005) was an Australian radio, television and film performer, often called The King of Australian television. ...

Like Kennedy's famous variety show In Melbourne Tonight, the earliest years of Hey Hey were marked by a similar "anything can happen" attitude, with sketches and improvisations stretched to the point of absurdity or terminated without warning; sponsors were also laid open to some gentle ridicule, and live 'reads' of sponsor advertising often became part of the comedy -- a tactic that Kennedy had made famous. In Melbourne Tonight, otherwise known as IMT, was a variety and interview television show produced at GTV-9 Melbourne from 1957 to 1970. ...

Somers and his colleagues also frequently broke the fourth wall between audience and performer, regularly taking the cameras behind the scenes into every area of the studio and even beyond the building. The team also began to develop a series of regular segments, including "What Cheeses Me Off", "Red Faces", "Media Watch Press" and "Chook Lotto".

As the show gained popularity, its budget was increased and it gradually changed format to a light entertainment/comedy variety program. Besides Daryl and Ossie, two other unseen personalities were pivotal to the show's success - voice-over man/announcer John Blackman and sound operator Murray Tregonning.

Blackman provided often satirical and sarcastic remarks, and also provided the voice of many invented characters including "Mrs McGillicuddy", "Angel" and another icon of the show, cheeky "schoolboy" Dickie Knee - in fact a hat and wig on a stick that would pop up in front of Daryl (operated by a stage hand) and which was voiced by Blackman. Dickie Knee is a puppet character on the Australian television show Hey Hey Its Saturday. ...

Tregonning became renowned for his remarkable ability to select and play the appropriate sound effect at a second's notice and his audio punctuations became another trademark of the series. This was long before the introduction of digital sound recording and the digital samplers, and all Tregonning's sound effects were played from a huge collection of pre-recorded cartridges.

The program went into recess when Daryl and Ossie took a brave step in 1978 and departed the Nine Network to the rival 0-10 Network to present a prime time game show, simply titled The Daryl And Ossie Show. The program had a very short life and very soon Daryl and Ossie went back to Nine, a bit wiser if nothing else, and Hey Hey was returned to air in 1979.

Other personalities gradually came on board, including ex-Skyhooks guitarist Red Symons, who not only played in the show's house band, but was also infamous for his withering sarcasm and as a judge on the "talent" segment Red Faces. A fellow musician who became a long serving cast member was saxophonist Wilbur Wilde, who had previously played in Australian bands Ol' 55 and Jo Jo Zep and The Falcons.

In 1984 the Nine Network took the remarkable step of moving the show from its morning timeslot to a primetime slot on Saturday nights, and it was briefly renamed Hey Hey It's Saturday Night before reverting to its old name. During this time, Hey Hey also became one of the most important TV venues to see both local and international music, film and TV stars. Many overseas stars -- including Tom Jones and Sylvester Stallone -- fell in love with the program's loony satirical style and returned as guests on subsequent visits. In October of 1984, blues guitar great, Stevie Ray Vaughan, also made a guest appearance with Double Trouble playing the song "Texas Flood". In a world first, reformed Aussie rock legends Skyhooks appeared on the same night live from their concert at Olympic Park in front of 26,000 people with Daryl and Ossie appearing with them on a giant screen above the stage. The band traded quips with the Hey Hey crew inbetween performing some of their biggest hits. It is said that Red Symons landed his Hey Hey gig as a result of the success of this appearance.

The show enjoyed strong ratings and maintained a dedicated following throughout the Eighties, and became a "must watch" program for many viewers, its popularity augmented by the stellar guest lineup and regular musical performances. It retained its loyal following well into the Nineties. Carroll decided to retire in 1994, taking Ossie Ostrich with him, although there were other characters including "Plucka Duck" to take on the role. Ossie Ostrich (full name: Oswald Q Ostrich) was a character on the long-running Australian television show Hey Hey Its Saturday. ...

In the late eighties, a cartoonist, Andrew Fyfe was added to the team, offering visual gags similar to Blackman's audio ones. In 1992 Fyfe got his own children's game show, GuessWhat?, on Nine, where he drew picture puzzles in front of two teams of children. A number of Somers-Carrol produced "Red Faces" and "Best of Hey Hey" specials screened and were rescreened with high ratings for their timeslots. The show got a lane named after it near its studios. Andrew Fyfe (born 12 May,1966, Melbourne, Australia) Australian cartoonist and satirist. ...

In 1998, Russell Gilbert got his own Somers-Carrol sketch comedy show on Nine, The Russell Gilbert Show, which lasted a year. Also in that year Hey Hey went full circle and became a Saturday morning kids TV show again, in the form of a separate show called "Plucka's Place". This was hosted by Plucka Duck and Livinia Nixon. Livinia soon went on to co-host the main show. A wide range of Plucka merchandise was released to complement the new program. Russell Gilbert (born 17 October 1959), is an Australian comedian and actor from Footscray, Victoria. ...

Segments

The show became a showcase for comedy and music which was reflected in the show's segments; Comedy has a classical meaning (comical theatre) and a popular one (the use of humour with an intent to provoke[[ laughter in general). ...

Red Faces

Red Faces was a segment in which three amateur performers or groups would present their routine (which was usually singing, dancing, comedy or something utterly bizarre), before a panel of judges. The segment and its name were a parody of serious talent quest program New Faces. The panel was formed by the show's guitar player Red Symons, along with 2 guests to the show that week. The format was similar to that of The Gong Show. Red Symons (born June 13, 1949 in Brighton, England) is an Australian musician, writer, and radio host, probably best known as lead guitarist with the Skyhooks and as the snide judge of Red Faces, a The Gong Show-esque segment of the long-running Hey Hey Its Saturday variety... The Gong Show was a television variety show spoof broadcast on NBCs daytime schedule from June 14, 1976 through July 21, 1978 and in first-run syndication in the U.S. from 1976 to 1980. ...

Normally contestants would be gonged by cast member Red Symons before finishing their performance. Each contestant was then given a score out of 10 by each of the judges. Red would usually give low scores such as 2 (or 0 or 1, or even negative scores on occasion), and deliver scathing criticism of the performance. The winning contestant received a $500 cash prize, second received $250 and third received $100. In the final years, the prizes were doubled and were sponsored by McDonald's.

Some contestants found fame after appearing on Red Faces. One group of mates performed their own rendition of I Am The Music Man, and were later hired to perform in a beer commercial as a result. Jason Stephens, a now well-known comedian who appeared on The Late Show, had his start on Red Faces impersonating a penguin. The Best Bits of The Late Show: Champagne Edition (DVD) The Late Show was a popular Australian comedy show, which ran for two seasons on ABC TV from 18 July 1992 to 30 October 1993. ...

Chook Lotto

A longstanding gameshow segment, Chook Lotto (or Chooklotto) involved a large barrel of numbered frozen chickens. The contestant would draw a chicken from the barrel, and would win the prize corresponding to the number on the chicken. This segment was eventually replaced by Plucka Duck (Pluck-a-duck). The single word gameshow is an evolution from game show. Just as flashlight and screwdriver became a single word through usage, gameshow has also become commonly used as a single word. ...

Plucka Duck

Plucka Duck, (at first Pluck-a-duck) was the replacement for Chook Lotto, and was responsible for creating the show's character of the same name. Contestants would spin a numbered wheel with each number corresponding to a prize. After the spin, the contestant was allowed to either elect to keep their prize, or have another go by "plucking a duck".

An important ingredient of the segment was Wilbur Wilde singing the Plucka Duck theme song:

'Plucka Duck Plucka Duck, It's not a chicken or a cow, Plucka Duck and pluck it now!'

If the contestant elected to pluck a duck, the character Plucka Duck - a man in a duck costume - appeared and contestants plucked a feather from his tail. Each feather had a number concealed on it which corresponded to a prize, and that would be the prize won.

This was later changed. In the subsequent version of the contest a large mechanical contraption resemblant of a merry-go-round powered by a bicycle - usually ridden by Plucka himself - would be wheeled on. The contestant would have to pick a soft-toy duck (later created in Plucka's image) from the spinning wheel, which would have a number hidden under its vest. This number, as with the wheel, corresponded with a prize. (for more details on Plucka Duck, see Plucka Duck (character). Plucka Duck was a character on the popular Australian television program Hey Hey Its Saturday. ...

Lost for Words

A game show style segment where a number of celebrities would be asked to name a word that started with the last letter of the previous word.

Media Watch Press

Not to be confused with the Australian ABC's program Media Watch, Media Watch Press would display humorous errors in newspapers and advertisements, again sent in by the viewers. The concept used in Media Watch press and Phunny Fotos was replicated after the collapse of Hey Hey... in the What The? segment on Rove Live.

Molly's Melodrama

The former talent co-ordinator/interviewer of Australian Television's Countdown, Ian Molly Meldrum hosted a segment titled Molly's Melodrama. Molly would review local and international music as well as interview the famous and infamous faces of the musical scene. Molly's segment was often taken over by other cast members as they performed often cruel and painful pranks on the man who was known for fainting when meeting John Lennon. Countdown was a long-running popular weekly Australian music television show broadcast by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation from late 1974 until July 19, 1987. ...

The End of Hey Hey...

The departure of Carroll created a gap in the show that fans said could never be filled, and coupled with the show's apparent decline in humour, its popularity would never again reach the peaks of the '80s. Although it did not rate poorly, Nine Network executives decided at the end of 1999 to cancel the program. Somers claimed that he wanted to take the program into a new direction, but the budget to redevelop the show seemed too much for Nine Network executives, who were on a cost-cutting exercise at the time. The final program was, needless to say, an emotionally charged affair but the moving last moments were handled with great dignity by Somers. It also went long overtime, about four hours.

1999 also saw the beginning of another variety show on Nine, "Rove" featuring Rove McManus. Newspapers reported Kerry Packer's relative closeness to Rove and distance from Daryl during the year. Surprisingly, Rove's show was also axed at the year's end, but it was quickly reborn in 2000 on Network Ten as Rove Live. Notably, Daryl was a major guest on the fourth episode of the reborn program - the only interview he gave for some time. Rove Live instantly became the talk show of choice for visiting celebrities, as Hey Hey had been before it. The program is in many ways similar, but is cheaper and targets young adults rather than families. John Rove McManus (born January 21, 1974) is a Gold Logie Award winning Australian variety show host, comedian and owner of the production company Roving Enterprises. ... Kerry Francis Bullmore Packer AC (17 December 1937 – 26 December 2005) was an Australian publishing, media and gaming tycoon. ... Network Ten, or Channel Ten, is one of Australias three commercial television networks, available in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth in Australia. ... It has been suggested that Carrie Bickmore be merged into this article or section. ...

During the five years after the show's demise in November 1999, Daryl Somers rarely made public appearances, with the exception of a court appearance in 2001 to answer a drink driving charge (which Somers admitted he was "...a bloody idiot" - a reference to a famous anti drunk driving advertising campaign of that time), and his Rove Live guest appearance. Drink driving or drinking and driving is the act of operating a motor vehicle after having consumed alcohol (ethanol) or other drugs, to the degree that mental and motor skills are impaired. ...

In 2004, Somers made his comeback to Australian television hosting the Australian version of Dancing with the Stars on the Seven Network, which was a surprise ratings success. (Immediately previous to this was his first major discussion of Hey Hey's axing with the press). At present, Somers has completed hosting the 6th season of the show.

Cultural significance in Australia

The impact of Hey Hey It's Saturday on Australia should not be underestimated. The Australian comedy movie The Castle famously made a reference to the show. Many other Australian sketch comedy programs have satirised the show at one point or another, perhaps most infamously on The Comedy Company when it was parodied as Ho Hum It's Saturday. Even today, it is still joked about, with the SBS sitcom Pizza recently parodying Ossie Ostrich as "Woggy Ostrich".

Ossie Ostrich (full name: Oswald Q Ostrich) was a character on the long-running Australian television show Hey Hey Its Saturday. ...

Hey Hey's impact on Australian culture was further cemented during a Test cricket match between Australia and South Africa in Melbourne in December 2005. Australian bowler Shane Warne referred to Bantu South African batsman Makhaya Ntini, who was batting with an injured knee, as "John Blackman". Warne was claiming that Ntini was controlling his "dicky knee" just like Blackman "controlled" Dickie Knee on the show. But Ntini, a Bantu, interpreted the remark as a racist jibe, and a minor controversy occurred. Eventually Australian captain Ricky Ponting explained the situation to South African captain Graeme Smith. Blackman himself had in fact visited the Australian team's dressing rooms not long before the incident occurred.

Some people have criticised the show for everything from Somers' ability as a host, to the so-called "live" performances of the show. But then again, it was a source of entertainment and light hearted relief for many Australians over its three decades on Australian television. Its segments, especially Red Faces, attracted their own following and in fact the Nine Network aired quite a few Best of Red Faces specials on primetime television. PrimeTime is a television newsmagazine from ABC News. ...

Hey Hey can be credited with launching many careers through their different segments, specifically Red Faces, including the D Generation sketch show and the actor/entertainer/singer Paul Nielson who first appeared performing a humorous ventriloquist act. It was later confirmed that the ventriloquist dummy had in fact been a midget and this saw an unfortunate early death of Nielsons career.

Hey Hey's most regular guest was John Farnham. This article does not cite its references or sources. ...

A new beginning?

Daryl made a return to Nine in late 2005, appearing in a segment of the Melbourne Carols by Candlelight telecast. Plucka Duck also featured. This combination, plus the recent finishing of Daryl's Dancing with the Stars contract caused some to speculate about a Hey Hey return.^{[citation needed]} However given Nine's current profitability rather than ratings dominance focus, the old Hey Hey is unlikely to come back to Nine. (That said, in June 2006 Nine began to re-air the Hey Hey By Request specials.) Carols by Candlelight is an Australian Christmas tradition that has spread around the world. ...

Also, on Nine's quiz show Temptation, Hey Hey's Wilbur Wilde and John Blackman appeared in May 2006 as part of Temptations Logies Superchallenge, and both represented the show. Dickie Knee also made a brief appearance on the show. Temptation is an Australian game show which premiered on the Nine Network on 30 May 2005. ...

In October 2006, the Seven Network begun airing old Red Faces segments as a part of a new show called The Best and Worst of Red Faces. In a complete turnaround from events throughout the year on the Nine Network, having a number of former Hey Hey regulars now signed to Seven may see a return of Hey Hey on Seven, even though it may only return as a one off special to help celebrate the 50 years of Australian TV with Hey Hey on our screens for 28 of those years.
