Actress Noni Hazlehurst is clearly having a bit of fun in a YouTube clip that may send a few Play School mums reaching for their ear plugs.

She’s reading from the cheeky US storytime book “Go The F*** to Sleep.”

In the clip she drops plenty of expletives, all read with her charming, syrupy voice. And you gotta love that.

It follows on from a Samuel L. Jackson clip, reading the book written by Adam Mansbach.

She told Text Publishing that, “it’s impossible to understand this hilarious book’s appeal unless you’ve experienced the utter desperation of a parent whose child won’t sleep. Most of us suffer in silence, unwilling to admit our helplessness.

“Hopefully this will encourage parents to be honest about the problem, find solace in the fact that they’re not alone and start swapping ideas that might work.”

The clip is entirely independent and unrelated to ABC’s Play School.

But it’s pretty obvious her presentation style draws upon the Noni that we’ve come to love on the show, at a time when it is marking its 45th anniversary. She’s also been a champion of children’s television for years. But should that necessarily stop her from having a bit of fun?

Hazlehurst is a freelance actress, who hasn’t worked on Play School since 2003. Viewers have also seen her getting grisly on City Homicide. You have to be diverse to survive in this industry…..

The clip is sure to get people talking  -it’s already trending on Twitter. But that’s probably its point.

WARNING: Language. Big Time.

  1. this is great, we all need a little light humour in our lives otherwise life becomes way too stressful..well done Noni and as for Mr. Do-bee and the other do gooders…go get a life and lighten up, actually, why don’t you lot go the f*** to sleep!

  2. Good onya, You Tube. Nobody wants their childhood memories destroyed by potty mouth Noni. Let her get away with this and she’ll be uploading the “There’s a Bear in There” video to Red Tube next.

  5. Hmm…I just clicked on the link back to You Tube and it’s been removed due to an apparent breach of You Tube guidelines of ‘depiction of harmful activities’. What a sad world we live in, unharmful things being called harmful.
