This guys name is Robert Hughes. He was the star of a truly awful but very successful TV show called Hey Dad - you can find it on YouTube, if you have an interest in crappy Aussie sitcoms from the 80s.

The calling out of Cate Blanchett is troubling to me. She's an actress I love, someone from my own home town. The night I saw her act in A Streetcar Named Desire will stay in my memory for as long as I live.
God I love it so much.
The soapy hair-dos were only for serious rock chicks. You have to suffer for your beauty.
I was born in 1964. I do NOT miss 80s hair and make up. I was the only girl in the whole of Australia who went through that decade without getting a perm. Every female had a perm, every man had a moustache. It was a hairy time in Australia. On your head at least. Complete strangers on public transport would…
I can't enlarge on this tablet unfortunately. What is the pink doll? It's so pretty. I see you have posters from Gone With the Wind as well. I've always been obsessed with the book and the film. Completely indefensible but I love them.
Your room is adorable, KEWLBEANNS. Colourful and fun. So jealous of that Scarlett O'hara doll. My dream room is Amelie's bedroom.
October 23 in Oz. Nov 24 on HBO. Summer Heights High was filmed at my old high school!
You forgot silly mid on. Never forget silly mid on.
In Australia we have the beyondblue organisation and website which has been very helpful for me as someone with depression and as someone who has friends and family with mental health issues. It's worth you checking out even if you're not in Oz. They have a Facebook Page or just google beyondblue.
I mean left of the picture. I'm on medication for shingles and it's doing my head in.
Who is the smiling lady on the right of the picture? I'm only up to season 4 so I don't know if she's a character the show. She looks very excited. Is she on meth?
Me too! Not just the actor, I love Saul as well. It's a forbidden love but I don't care.
I spent much of my teenage years fantasising about my life as a WW2 glamorous lady spy. I read everything I could about SOE and I idolised women like Christine Granville, Nancy Wake, Violette Szabo and Odette Churchill. Christine Granville was the most mysterious of them and survived the war to be murdered a few years…
The drama is in the comments section and is pretty upsetting. Stuff like "the holocaust only lasted 5 years versus 400 years of slavery". And all the Jews had to do to avoid being sent to the gas chamber was to dye their hair blonde, so they wouldn't look Jewish any more. Comments were disabled by the time I read the…
I do love a Cold Comfort Farm reference. I'm thinking Russell Brand would make a perfect Seth.
If you know someone from Tasmania they are probably my cousin. It's kind of shallow gene pool down there.
My mother had a pet wombat when she was a kid growing up in Tasmania. It used to follow her to school each day.
At home I usually go without shoes, even in freezing weather. At work I have to wear steel-lined safety boots. I have an absolute terror of people touching my feet so I've never been to a foot doctor who could probably help me a lot.
I have pinky toes like that and it is impossible to find nice shoes that fit me. Even the widest fitting jams them in and it's very painful. I usually buy ugly cheapo shoes because so often I have to cut tiny triangles in them to let my pinkies free. It's not pretty. I've wished I could just chop the dammed things…
