Was Lisa Oldfield Always This Amusing?

Once again, we’re starting to realise that maybe, just maybe, The Catch Up might have been worth taping. And by taping, we mean ‘us memorising transcripts of each show’.

From today’s Mediaweek newsletter -

On the day that the final edition of The Catch Up goes to air, The Daily Telegraph reports that panellist Lisa Oldfield has made a public apology, claiming she was responsible for the program failing. “I think Australia has had an absolute gutful of Lisa Oldfield…I can’t imagine me darkening anybody’s TV screen again any time soon.”

The Herald Sun reports quasi-intellectual Mary Moody said she was lapping up thoughts of never needing to know another thing about Britney Spears or Paris Hilton, while Lisa Oldfield declared their audience to blame. “Australia you should be ashamed of yourselves,” she said. “Because you weren’t watching our show, we’ve got two single mums and a granny on the scrapheap, and a redneck on the loose.”
