Randling

Match 14: West Coast Odd Sox VS The Bette Davis Cup Squad (1x14)

Data di messa in onda: Ago 01, 2012

This week on Randling, a player's shocking admission about performance-enhancing drugs kicks off a night of fun, frivolity and high-wire tension. The West Coast Odd Sox and Bette Davis Cup Squad - Jonathan Biggins, David Marr, Annabel Crabb and Merrick Watts - battle each other and themselves as they try to tell the difference between baby names and IKEA products. Other things to look out for include: the casual character assassination of Jamie Oliver and Rupert Murdoch, David and Jonathan demonstrating the Maroubra stomp and the catchy phrase: 'How long have you two guys been married?' Randling, created for ABC1 by Andrew Denton and Jon Casimir, the gentlemen behind The Gruen Transfer, is a game show that hearkens back to the good old days when a point was a point and a team was something worth barracking for. Using sporting competition as inspiration and framework, Randling pits ten amazing teams against each other over 27 rounds of bone-crunching combat. All of it hurtling towards the 2012 Randling Grand Final and the presentation of a trophy which has cost the ABC so much cash that from next year, Four Corners will be Three Corners And A Gap. White-water rafting for the brain, Randling is a show where smart people can be funny and funny people can be smart, where actual knowledge may help you, but just as likely won't. It's a cheeky, surprising show that allows Mr Denton to live up to his hosting motto: "I'm Andrew and I'm not here to help".
