Just picked up my Sunday Times, front page headline,

" King of Aussie TV dead at 83 "

I liked him, and Don Lane

Hi Guy's
What funny guy Bert Newton was. Also what a great team in the early day's was Graham Kennedy n Bert Newton where.

He didn't try to be funny on Tv and make you laugh, it just came naturally for him and even before he started talking sometime i burst out laughing.

There will never be another Bert Newton and he will be missed by millions of Australian's.

RIP Moonface we all miss you
