Morgue has been watching Billy T James on NZ On Screen, and has noticed a very familiar looking face in the crowd:
there's a clip from NZ comedy legend Billy T James in 1990, doing a 'newsreader in the future' gag with the nation's crooner Sir Howard Morrison. Howard delivers this line: "..there's no truth in the rumour that the last four remaining Pakeha seats will be abolished..." There is applause and laughter, and the camera cuts away to someone in the crowd smiling happily at this riff on NZ's controversial Maori seats...Clearly the man has taste in comedy....waitaminute...
...is that...
