Credits:
- Also pre-recorded at this taping was a tribute to Bert Newton's Knighting (for I don't know what) and a music pre-record by Tex Perkins & The Dark Horses (Don't know the name of the song)
* Out of interest, the part of the patient in The Desk was played by staging employee Stuart Melvin, which brought Paul to being the assistant who handed Sandy his equipment (Set designer, Andrew Raymond for Flacco), what Stuart would normally have been doing. While Paul had rubber gloves on, look out for his white shirt and cufflinks!
