Known about in the most unlikely places. Sent a link to the Fred Dagg "Never teach a Sheila to drive a tractor" sketch to the farmer up the lane as he was doing exactly that with his girlfriend/now wife.
He immediately came back with "Is that the bloke who did "The Front Fell Off"?

Certainly is. I was sent a link to it by a Brit mate from Hong Kong. He's never been to Aus or NZ but knew John Clarke's work. "The front fell off" must have been quite big in Britain?

It's such a stupid joke. Just executed perfectly.

Don't think so - more a viral thing I guess. I've sent links of his stuff to friends and they've become immediate fans. One teaches English Lit at a red-brick uni and thinks his poetry inspired.

And brilliantly written. Grew up on Fred Dagg and the his world of Bruce Baylis, The Trevs and Barry Fortenbrae...

@victor-meldrew You just couldn't say that shit these days. He's got it all in there, racist, sexist, drink driving, and so much more. It should come with steak knives. Love it.

that phonecall is still my absolute favourite. And yes, i am surprised no one has come for that
the beers he keeps for getting birds pissed is cancellable now for sure.

@siam Had to do a quick google for that one because I don't remember it. Need a refresher, not in "gumboots" that I recall.
I did find this though, so Stuff aren't completely useless:
