I have a penchant for stories against myself.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>THE entertainment reporter, Peter Ford, has been a friend and colleague for many years. We worked together, first, at Channel Ten when he was the Melbourne producer for <em>Good Morning Australia<\/em>. He, too, has a wicked send of humour, and often times uses me as the butt of some very funny banter.<\/p>\n<p>Hester Ford, America\u2019s oldest woman, died aged 116. Peter, who was talking to a radio station in Perth, and was feeling slightly bored with the conversation, was heard to say, \u201cShe went to school with Roland Rocchiccioli.\u201d\u00a0 Troublingly, the presenter believed Peter, who added, for my benefit, \u201cI have to say, in fairness to Roland, he was the year behind her!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When asked my age he said, \u201cI have no idea, but was doing the interviews on the red carpet at the opening of the Pyramids!\u201d\u00a0 On another occasion he said, \u201cI\u2019m fairly certain Roland knew Jesus, personally!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When I suggested my impecunity might force me to hang-out a red light, he said, unabashedly, \u201cDon\u2019t be ridiculous! Why would you try and sell something you can\u2019t even give away?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, it is not always at my own expense. Sometimes the opportunity it too great to resist. A colleague appeared on the television. I made no mention; however, when she asked what I thought I commented how awful she looked, \u201cWhat are talking about?\u201d she said, indignantly. \u201cThey sent me a make-up girl!\u201d\u00a0 Without missing a beat, I replied: \u201cReally! What was her name? Helen Keller?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When she told me an artist friend wanted to paint her for the Archibald, I asked, \u201cHas he seen you lately?\u201d We both laughed, a lot, at that riposte.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Golden Girls<\/em> was a brilliant international television series. It is the type of comedy \u2013 mostly observational or language driven &#8211; which I think is the most effective, and the funniest.\u00a0 Of the four actresses, only Betty White is still with us. Rue McClanahan had impeccable comedy timing, as did Estelle Geddes and Bea Arthur, who could hold an effective deadpan pause like no-one I know.\u00a0 However, McClanahan was my preference. It has been classified as savage, but clever might be a better description.<\/p>\n<p>When first I started-out in the theatre, drawing-room comedies we de rigueur. For the most part, they were brittle pieces with straightforward plots, beautiful clothes, and some funny dialogue. When Eliza Dolittle, in the musical, <em>My Fair Lady<\/em>, shouted at Ascot, \u201cCome on, Dover! Move your bloomin\u2019 arse!\u201d, theatre audiences roared with laughter. Such dialogue was used sparingly, and always with effect.<\/p>\n<p>Watching the late Bob Hope at work was a masterclass. His control of the audience was exceptional. He knew exactly the right moment to top his own laugh. It can be difficult to build on a laugh but he did it with seeming ease.<\/p>\n<p>However, even masters sometimes have moments of aberration. Hope performed at the Melbourne Arts Centre the show and the show was hugely successful. The curtain call applause was thunderous but he did not tell a final joke. He came off, disappointed, and said to me, \u201cI have just had a blank. I could not think of another joke.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For my money, the cleverest of them all was the late Victor Borge. Spending days with him in Melbourne was a rare treat. He was naturally funny; a brilliant, classically trained pianist with an intellectual, absurdist sense of humour. The combination of the two was lethal, and international. Danish by birth, he used the idiosyncrasies of the English language to create some of the funniest banter, ever.<\/p>\n<p>The late Dave Allen; the incomparably brilliant Lucille Ball and Phyllis Diller; and the truly clever Adam Hills, are exponents of the art.<\/p>\n<p>However, comedy is subjective!<\/p>\n<p><em>Roland can be heard with Brett Macdonald each Monday at 10.45am on Radio 3BA and contacted via <strong>roland@rolandroc.com<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comedy is serious busy, and hard work; especially if the audience does not respond in the way you anticipated.
