This particular year Jonathon hosted the show and had to contend with the antics
of the late Rod Hull and Emu. For our visitors from overseas let me explain just
a little about the latter. Nobody was safe when Emu was around as you will see
from some of these captures. Some years ago a group of kids from my school were
invited to play on a show which featured the pair. They were terrified of what
Emu might do to them and spent the whole day watching their backs!! Rod wasn't a
ventriloquist - he just terrorised people with the deadly bird.
Time to meet Emu
How long before Emu attacks?
Er......Not that long!
I'm sure that must hurt you know!
But you need to get to know him better
Go on, stroke him - he doesn't bite!
The rope needs to be placed in a straight line
I'll leave the rest to your imagination Emu 1 - Jon Nil
