Wollongong Quokka's Melbourne '99 Slideshow: An Exercise in Idiocy

Stop 5: TLSLT - Handychurch #1

Yes folks, you've now arrived at The Late Show Locations Tour section!

The first stop of this section is St Michael's Handychurch. For those who don't have enough hours in the day to go to church... there's Handychurch!

This sketch was actually taped at two different locations after the crew got chucked out of the first church when someone discovered what they were up to! :)

The first church - St Joseph's (Orrong Road, Elsternwick) - was used for the ordering part of the sketch. I naturally couldn't help having a go at the drive through myself. :)

Nor could I resist a TV Week style photo...

Mick: "That was a church near your place, wasn't it, Tone?"
Tony: "I think it was..."
Mick: "I, uh, I got sent a photo from a couple of fans who'd actually tracked down that church and they're havin' themselves photographed..."
Santo: [laughs]
Mick: "...like, out the front as if they're going through the drive-through"
Tony: "That's a bit sad I think, really."
