Telling a yarn to your mates after a few beverages is about as Australian as the Hills Hoist, Pavlova and Dame Edna combined, so of course we made a show about it!
Beginning on Monday, 14 September at 9.30pm, Drunk History Australia will see a bunch of liquored comedians retell some true blue Aussie stories – some very well-known and some you’ve never heard of – all the while re-enacted by the most popular and unexpected faces in the biz.
Think Alex Nation rapping to take the title of the first Miss Australia, Hughesy donning the baggy green to emulate the late, great Don Bradman, Erin McNaught pulling out a Dawn Fraser wig to steal a flag during the Tokyo Olympics and dynamic television hosting duo Osher Günsberg and James Mathison back together at last as explorers Burke and Wills.
Telling these tipsy tales are Joel Creasey, Harley Breen, Em Rusciano, Brendan Fevola and many, many more…
You’ll be laughing, you’ll be crying (of laughter) and you’ll be asking… ‘did that really happen?’
