Apart from that crow call which we use often there was the time the dog peed on the floor and when he was hosting Coast to Coast he showed the fainting goats. Ken Sutcliffe crying from laughter and Graham trying to speak Greek to George Mangos. There’s too many highlights to choose from

And the best part of all Graham's shows was that it was all unscripted and live TV; wonderful memories of a bygone era! the best time in TV land for sure!

He was a very funny man. Now days he would be crucified because everyone is so prudish

When he got with Ugly Dave Grey you had to on the ball to follow all the jokes.

I loved when Graham did live ads on his show and frequently there were hilarious moments. I recall he was singing the praises of a particular dog food but the big dog meant to be demonstrating how delicious it was - absolutely refused to eat any of it! We were in stitches!

Had a visit to see IMT graham came out to the audience hi chat. Quite hilarious and so friendly. Many years later my ladies dance class performed on the show with don lane I was barely 5 feet tall sohe tapped away with me, it looked very funny. Being the day Robert Menzies passed away we were invited into the green room.to watch on tv. Phillip Brady very available. Bruce Mansfield seemed to find us all somewhat annoying

Blankety Blanks was my favourite

 

[Bezz]

A very funny man, couldn’t wait to turn the TV on at night to watch him with Bert, Don and ugly Dave

 

[Veggiepatch]

One of my favourites when a audience contestant won a Miracle appliance.

His catch cry was "If it works....it's a miracle!

And who can forget his ads for Colgate with the "ring of confidence" cat walking by with its tail in the air!

Absolutely would ..... 'political' correctness gone mad. People are way too precious these days - can't say this, can't say that; well guess what! .... I say what I bloody well like these days. The older I get, the more irascible I become .....
