Tractor Monkeys: Nov 6

Guests Daryl Braithwaite, Celia Pacquola, Cal Wilson and Mikey Robins.

3trmkTonight Tractor Monkeys looks back on School with guests Daryl Braithwaite and Celia Pacquola on Dave’s team and Cal Wilson and Mikey Robins on Monty’s team.

Ah, school days! If they really are the best days of our lives then why do we always look so awkward in our school photos? But in amongst all those stories of sour milk, daggy uniforms and smoking by the creek are the enduring friendships, the inspiring teachers and memories of a time when we were fit enough to play hopscotch for a whole hour.

Daryl Braithwaite talks about how you deal with decades of obsessive fans and he also talks about what it was like to be in the school choir with Olivia Newton-John! Cal Wilson relives the crippling embarrassment of uniform malfunction, whilst Celia Pacquola shows us just how good a finger painter she is. Be surprised when Mikey Robins reveals that he was a really good milk monitor and unsurprised when he tells us he was expelled. And wait till you see the knitted orange outfit that Merrick wore on his first day of school!

8pm tonight on ABC1.
