Here are two articles about Tim & Graeme appearing at the festival.

Young crowd goes 'yum, yum' over veteran Goodies
Andrew Taylor October 18, 2009
It's not quite the Lost Island of Munga, but for the Goodies a gig on Cockatoo Island is just fine.
Graeme Garden, 66, and Tim Brooke-Taylor, 69, two-thirds of the trio behind the 1970s hit television series, delighted fans yesterday at the World's Funniest Island, a 24-hour comedy fest that is part of the month-long Crave Sydney festival.
Brooke-Taylor said it was ''fascinating'' to be performing in the surrounds of the former prison.
''I wish I could take the audio tour,'' he joked.
He said he was surprised by the large crowds of young people who had gathered to watch him and Garden appear on stage with The Chaser's Andrew Hansen.
''It's completely different from England, where you have to be over 40 to remember our show,'' Brooke-Taylor said.
Brooke-Taylor said the veteran comics were surprised by the international storm caused by the Jackson Jive sketch on this month's Hey, Hey, It's Saturday reunion special.
''I think it's difficult to be dogmatic about these things,'' he said.
During their performance, the Goodies played clips from the TV show and donned cowboy hats for a rendition of Good Ol' Country Music by the third Goodie, Bill Oddie, who was unable to make the trip to Australia.

The Goodies island
By David Knox on October 18, 2009 Filed Under News Two of the legendary Goodies team are in Sydney at the moment appearing at World’s Funniest Island, a comedy event staged on Cockatoo Island as part of the month-long Crave Sydney festival.
It’s not quite the Lost Island of Munga, but for the Goodies a gig on Cockatoo Island is just fine.
Tim Brooke-Taylor, 69, said it was ”fascinating” to be performing in the surrounds of the former prison.
”I wish I could take the audio tour,” he joked.
Joining him is Graeme Garden, 66, while Bill Oddie appears only via clips. The Chaser’s Andrew Hansen hosts the event.
Brooke-Taylor commented tactfully on Hey Hey It’s Saturday’s Jackson Jive skit.
”I think it’s difficult to be dogmatic about these things,” he said.
TEN’s Angela Bishop also interviewed the two comedians, you can see here.
Alexei Sayle, Jane Bussmann, Merrick and Rosso, Arj Barker and others are also performing.

I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue Mailout 19.10.09 |
more from same (British Comedy) |
The following is a message from the official I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue mailing list.
-----Original Message----- From: ISIHAC Info [mailto:isihac@btinternet.com] Subject: I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue Mailout 19.10.09
Dear I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue Mailing List Member
This is to bring you news of the first two recordings in the forthcoming series of 'I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue'.
As you may have heard recently, Jack Dee has been confirmed as host for this series.
Our first recording is at the Old Vic Theatre, The Cut, London SE1 8NB, on Monday 26th October. Tickets are £10, £8 and £6. The panel will comprise the regulars (Tim, Graeme and Barry) plus Rob Brydon. The recording starts at 7.30pm and will finish no later than 10.30pm. As the theatre is in London and not large (around 1000 seats) and in the light of the huge inconvenience many people suffered trying to book tickets to the show at Her Majesty's Theatre in April, I have decided to take the advice many of you have been giving me and set up a lottery system for this recording via the Ambassadors Theatre Group ticketing agency used by The Old Vic. If you are free on the date and would like to attend the recording, to take part in the lottery, you need to click on this link:
http://www.ambassadortickets.com/form.aspx?id=33
Simply follow the instructions and fill in the form. You have until 6pm tomorrow (Tuesday 20th October) to have registered your interest in buying tickets - then the ATG booking office will make a random selection. To increase people's chances of getting tickets and hopefully cut down on the touting of tickets, we've restricted them to no more than 2 per applicant. So - fingers crossed.
Our second recording is at the Festival Theatre, Oaklands Park, Chichester, West Sussex P019 6AP on Monday 9th November. Tickets are again £10, £8 and £6, and again the recording will feature the regular panel plus this time special guest panellist David Mitchell. Again the recording starts at 7.30pm and will finish no later than 10.30pm. Tickets for this show are again limited to 2 per applicant and can be obtained from 10am tomorrow (Tuesday 20th October). They are bookable 24 hours a day at www.cft.org.uk http://www.cft.org.uk/ or via the theatre's box office on 01243 781312 which is open Monday-Saturday from 10am-8pm (6pm when no performance). You would be strongly advised to book early!
Very sorry to the many of you who have been kind enough to send emails to this address. I've been on tour and just haven't had a moment to deal with any of them. I'm not going to get through the backlog for a while - apologies.
With best wishes
Jon Naismith Producer, I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue

Censored Goodies footage recovered (and to be shown at World's Funniest Island) |
more from same (The Goodies) |
Mrs. Carthorse beware! During an interview on 702 ABC radio earlier this week Tim and Graeme revealed that some Goodies footage which had been censored in Australia had been uncovered in the government archives. This includes a particularly important clip, the missing "sex test" scene from the "Commonwealth Games" episode (as described in Matthew K. Sharp's excellent The Goodies Censored! site). Since the Australian print is the only remaining copy of this episode it's marvelous to hear that this footage has been recovered!
Also revealed in Tim and Graeme's interview is that this clip will be shown during The Goodies shows this weekend at the World's Funniest Island festival. So if you're in the Sydney area and haven't bought your tickets yet, here's a great reason to do so!
The 702 ABC interview isn't available on the station's website yet so the club has temporarily put a copy at http://www.sendspace.com/file/2etu1u
