 THE GAMES
From press conferences and protocol breaches to bungled boardroom meetings, THE GAMES is a behind-the-scenes view of the ‘Committee’ as the main event draws closer. Tackling issues such as a 100 metre-running track that is several metres short of the mark, over-zealous sponsorship opportunities from tobacco companies and a sex-change athlete - do they run in the men's or women's events?
A sure fire winner to excite every Olympics fan!

EFFIE: JUST QUIETLY
Australia’s version of "My Big Fat Wedding" - with a twist, EFFIE: JUST QUIETLY follows in the tradition of Barry Humphries’ satirical creation, Dame Edna Everage. This six-part series features the iconoclastic Effie - Australia’s suburban Greek goddess of "big hair". Each episode focuses on a controversial and relevant issue affecting the way in which we live, as Effie naïvely interrogates the often ludicrous contradictions in our everyday attitudes and prejudices.
