Episode 7 - Frank Woodley: Bemusement Park
Release Date: 2012-12-13Australia's most visually compelling comedian returns to the stage in Frank Woodley: Bemusement Park. Frank Woodley weaves physical comedy, whimsical songs, stand up and hilarious slapstick into a fantastic half hour of entertainment. The star of the much loved Woodley on ABC TV returns to where fans love to see him most - on stage doing live stand up in his unique song singing, limb flinging Woodley way. After 20 years as one half of the much loved, Lano and Woodley, Frank said good bye to their twenty years on stage in 2006 with a national tour that took in 34 markets and sold more than 125,000 tickets. Since hanging up his hat, Frank has been busier than a bee (bees are allegedly flat out). His smash hit solo show 'Possessed' played across Australia and the Edinburgh Festival with packed houses and rave reviews.

Episode 8 - Judith Lucy: Nothing Fancy
Release Date: 2013-01-03Judith Lucy is one of Australia's most popular comedians. In this episode Judith performs her recent smash hit show, Nothing Fancy. This is Judith at the top of her game - no singing, no dancing, just good old-fashioned gags.

Episode 9 - Hannah Gadsby: Mrs Chuckles
Release Date: 2013-01-10Hannah Gadsby doesn't smile much and she laughs even less. For a comedian, that's like being a transformer that doesn't fancy driving. She hates talking and is not much chop when it comes to listening. She is a rock, an island, and a lone ranger. She knows all this yet she was still utterly miffed when a friend told her she was woeful at chatting and was borderline rude. In the face of criticism she vowed to change and decided to train in the art of small talk. Hannah Gadsby: Mrs Chuckles is a tale of self discovery and of general failure.
