Had a hell of a drive and it was getting a bit all over the place at the finish.
Well, you know, I was trying my best.
The car is a little bit slower on the straights than Dick's car
and that's the only place you can make up the time in the corners.
But, you know, my pits gave me the...
He had a minute penalty, then they said he didn't have a minute penalty
and, you know, I was just driving as hard as I could.
Well, it was a great drive. Congratulations on that.
Dick, the man with the slipping clutch.
Well, actually, with these particular sorts of clutch on the line,
if the red light's on too long, which it appeared to be on forever,
the clutch just picks up and the car just moves,
even though you've got your foot on the clutch.
And, obviously, that's what's happened.
And I drove for the first 40 laps without a clutch at all,
so it was reasonably tough work.
And if they give me a minute penalty, we'll weld under Tony.
But that's the way it goes.
Dick, you must be getting to know all of these people fairly well
because every time we stand here at the finish line, you keep getting decorated.
Well, I don't mind that at all, Wilko, because, you know,
Shell are a great bunch of people and I only like to do good for them. Thank you.
Well, Tony Longhurst is being sashed as the winner,
so I guess that one-minute penalty is going to stick.
That's the situation down here on the grid, ladies and gentlemen.
Looks like Tony wants to share it, but, as we said,
there's no appeal against the one-minute penalty, apparently.
And Tony Longhurst has been sashed as the winner
of this sixth round of the championship.
Next round, round seven of the championship from Sandown next week.
Of course, you'll see it exclusively on the Australian television network.
Hope you can join us.

A nostalgic look at TV in the 50s and 60s.

The Honeymooners' reunion, 7.30 Thursday night.
Taking in some sun or just having fun,
it's a real hard life here in North Queensland.
You're watching NQTV.
We are NQTV.
The place to be.
Hunchy matter, hunchy matter, hey hunchy matter for you.
Rup.
Yeah.
Here we go.
Hello, Australia.
Put your dancing shoes on for an hour of musical fun on...
And now, let's get dancing with the young talent team.
Thanks, stop.
M thousajaun proof.
I wanna dance with you, until the sun comes creeping through
I wanna dance with you, I wanna start dancing with you
Ah, honey, for a while
Give me no chance to show some style
If you've got no love to spare, don't lie, oh yeah
You gotta believe that I, I know some music we gotta try
Cause there is nothing I would rather do
Remember I wanna let you know
I won't kick the bat shit, ain't willing to let you go
I wanna take a taxi, don't wanna give up, you won't
It's gotta be all my way
And I'm making sure that you will stay
I'm really selfish man, I've gotta get right to it
Love ahead tonight, I figured I'd be
Love it, I wanna take a taxi tonight, oh
Love it, get it like a two feet tonight, oh
Got some dancing to do
Ah, forget about the blues
I wanna take a taxi tonight, oh
Love it, get it like a two feet tonight, oh
Got some dancing to do, until the sun comes creeping through
I wanna dance with you, I wanna dance with you
Love ahead tonight, I figured I'd be
Love it, get it like a two feet tonight, oh
Got some dancing to do, until the sun comes creeping through
I wanna dance with you, I wanna dance with you
Ah, woo
Applause
And now, Miss Johnny Young
Music
Full speed
I love that, that was called dancing, something unusual
And my mum would have enjoyed that
As well, especially much because it was music from the 40s
What are you all giggling about?
I don't know
You're supposed to be crying cause tonight is Bevan Adensel's last young talent time
Come here Bevan
Fancy having to do your last young talent time with a broken arm
Now, we've got, as we always have, a final program for a team member
At the end of the program we'll be featuring Bevan's talents
You'll be singing your songs, we'll all be crying and doing all that stuff
And you're going into a play?
I am in seven launch times
Which is terrific, you must all see it, I've seen some rehearsals
Bevan is absolutely dreadful but he'll get better
I can see that
Holy gaggy
There is always a problem that we have because when we say goodbye to the team kids
We always say goodbye to their whole family, particularly their mums
And I thought seeing as this particular mum has been such an important part of everything that we've done
Would you please stand and welcome, come in here
Applause
This is Cheryl Adensel everybody in case you haven't met her before
Very proud mother of Bevan
She said yes, Bevan's my son and please don't hold that against me
No, of course not
But listen, because you are so special for us we've got a special
Boys, go and get the throne, bring it in
What?
This is especially for you Cheryl
Cheryl always complains that we never make the fuss of her
So tonight Cheryl, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Look at this, look at this
Don't say you never get any flowers
There you go
You ready guys, on the floor
And we'll be back before you're done
We'll have a special party in a minute
Applause
Yes, as you can see I've got pupils
I don't like them but I'm stuck with them
They just come up from nowhere
Around the cheeks mainly
We asked them to try the Topex 5 day test
Why should Topex be any different?
Because Topex breaks the acne cycle
It dries pimples on top and penetrates below to kill acne bacteria
And help clear and prevent pimples
It's amazing
Topex works
I'd say give Topex a try for sure
Break the acne cycle, try the Topex 5 day test
It has worked for me
Searching for your favourite music has always been awkward
Without the complete range you're never sure to find just what you need
We've got the music for you
Russ Adams music
Look for yourself
But while we're open
Applause
Happy bright looking audience shot there
Fantastic
How you doing gang? Hi Natalie
Hi John
How are you Mark?
Good John, how are you?
Look I'm so excited because I want to show you all something
I want to show you two things
And I've just discovered the second one
I can't believe this but let me show you this first
Bevan's mum and dad on their wedding day
Check this out
Isn't that great?
Ray's put on a couple of pounds since then
But one thing I'll know for certain about their wedding night is that
There would have been a lot of laughter
Because Cheryl, she's a lady that does a lot of giggles
And look at the second thing I've found
Because we stole this out of their house
Look, a lucky dolly note
In the back of the thing
Does this have significance?
Was this a significant thing?
It's his first dollar
He's still got his first dollar
Good on you Ray
Ray's a saxophonist
I couldn't persuade him to come and play on the show
But if you get an opportunity sometime to go to
What's the town where they come from?
Dimbula
Dimbula, go to the Dimbula pub
You'll see Ray there playing on his saxophone
Because he's got some bad habits
Has Ray
This is a good opportunity to introduce the song with the youngest team
I tell myself bad habits
I'm running wild
Lost control
And it's a shame to see
That a boy like me
Has got so many bad habits
Well I'm off the rails
My resistance fails
Temptation thoughts
A hold on me
And I can't refuse
Because I always lose
Can't tell myself
Bad habits
Well it just ain't right
But something to me I can't fight
I can't stop going out and having fun
Well I tried to be good
But I knew I never could
Because I've got more bad habits than anyone
When I get the urge
I'm just got to splurge
I'm a slave to all
My desires
And I'm in a mess
Because I can't repress
All of these
Bad habits
When I get the urge
I'm just got to splurge
I'm a slave to all
My desires
And I'm in a mess
Because I can't repress
All of these
Bad habits
What else we got on?
Do you like trains by the way?
I love old steam trains
Do you?
Yeah
They're really old ones
Tell us, are you getting anything you want to tell us about it?
Yeah, well I met a guy named Ron Peking a couple of days ago
And went and interviewed him about puffing willies
Ah yes, they're the little steam trains
Yes, it was
Great, so let's have a look at what Mark found out about old steam trains
Every weekend in Victoria, hundreds of families take a trip back to the early 1900s on a train ride
Yes, puffing willy takes thousands and thousands of people each year for a ride through the beautiful hills of Fern Tree Gully in Emerald
Just for the fun of it
G'day everyone at home and in the studio, this is Ron Peking
Ron's one of the engine drivers of the puffing willy
And um, Ron, when did the puffing willy actually get started?
The line opened in 1900
And from upper Fern Tree Gully through the Gembrook, some 18 and a half miles
Ron, why did it stop in 1953?
A landslide midway up the track
Covering a line with very, very many cubic metres of soil
It was just not financial enough to remove the soil and keep the railway going
When did it start again after 1953?
During the mid-50s, a very interesting group formed the Puffing Willy Preservation Society
And they reopened a line, or part thereof, from Bellgrave to Mendes Creek in 1962
Is it really hard to find spare parts for the puffing willy then?
To find spare parts as such, new spare parts, is impossible
Impossible?
We make all our own spare parts, all new parts
How many puffing willies are there around here?
There's six locomotives, all like this one
Three in running and three under repair and or restoration
How many people travel on the puffing willy through a whole year?
Well, on a busy day, Mark, we have carried in excess of 2,000 people
And that's not unusual
Really?
The yearly tally would be in excess of 160,000 people
Ron, how long have you been driving puffing willies for?
21 years now, Mark
21 years? I wasn't even born then
Is there any job around here I could possibly do?
There most certainly is, Mark
There is? Fantastic, okay
Well, I've had a fantastic time at puffing willy
I may as well take advantage of the scenery while I can
All aboard!
The Great Thing about being young is that you get bigger every year
Better every year
Your reactions get faster
You get more coordinated
Better balance
Better speed
More coordinated
Better balanced
Whoops
Best of all, you're going to keep getting better at things naturally
Until you're grown up
Unless you do something that could stop you reaching your full potential
Like drinking alcohol before your body can handle it
Alcohol, it's no good for growing bodies
There's a super special all this month at Mobile Snack Food on Bowen Road
A beef burger, normally $2.30, now only $1.95

Why do I prefer mum roll onto a spray deodorant?
Because it gives me extra protection where I need it
Without those awful fumes
And it's got a lovely fragrance that lasts
I can't get by without my mum
Where did you go parasailing?
Oh, Patea Beach
Bangkok, out of Bangkok
And you enjoyed it?
And they were lovely boys who took me up
And one had to go up with me as a jockey
Because I couldn't see to pull the right colored ropes
And I know those boys enjoyed them
Enjoyed themselves knowing I enjoyed myself
And they had my arms flailing around, my legs flailing around
And I came back and said how lovely it was
And the other said, oh, yes
It was...
Doris, tell me about your hot air balloon race
That must have been a fascinating experience too
That was a horror
I was told to throw the...
Oh, hair in the hound
I was supposed to throw the thing away
He didn't tell me where to and I dropped it over the fence
But he dropped his machine the other side
Did he?
This is Mary, by the way
Mary, stand up
Mary is Doris' guide dog
And he's the most...
Actually, we've got a girl dog called Mary at the office as well
And blonde as well
As a matter of fact
You are just so beautiful
Have a look at those eyes
Isn't she just the most blessed person?
You are beautiful
And she's got a lot of hair
Oh, she's lovely for me
Did she go up in the hot air balloon as well?
Oh, no, no
No, she's wise like me
Doris, you're an absolute delight
We've got some flowers for you and some chockeys
And most important, Young Talent Time sends all their love to you
And you'll love this song
This is from the 40s
It's Little Ricky Arnott singing Mr Sandman
Oh, lovely
Just for you, Doris
Here she comes
Bum, bum, bum, bum
Mr Sandman
Bring me a tree
Bum, bum, bum, bum
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen
Bum, bum, bum, bum
Give him two lips like roses and clover
Bum, bum, bum, bum
And tell him that his lonesome nights are over
Sandman
I'm so alone
Bum, bum, bum, bum
Don't have nobody to call my own
Please turn on your magic beam
Mr Sandman
Bring me a tree
Mr Sandman
Bring us a tree
Give him a pair of eyes with a committed gleam
Give him a lonely heart
Like Pellear G
And lots of wavy hair like liver of G
Mr Sandman
Somewhere to hold
With his self-deceiving
All the way to hell
So please turn on your magic beam
Mr Sandman
Bring us
Please, please, please
Mr Sandman
Bring us a tree
Thank you.
That was Ricky Arnett, our lungist.
Our youngest girl on Young Talent Time,
especially for Doris and all of our other mothers watching on Young Talent Time tonight.
And what a great lady she is to bring me to film, please, waiter.
You ordered a phone, sir?
I ordered a phone. Thank you very much.
We'll plug it into that socket there.
That's the boy.
Oops.
Listen, it's a bit of a 1940s flavor show tonight,
so we installed a 1940s telephone system.
We did.
And good old Allison, who's out on the switchboard outside,
is going to dial a number for me.
Let's see if she's there.
Hello, operator. How can I help you?
Hello, Allison.
I'm calling Carolyn Van Jemmett in Victoria,
and the number... Talk amongst yourselves a minute.
I don't want to put the number over the telly.
Come on, mumble, mumble, mumble.
Come on.
Mumble, mumble, mumble, mumble.
OK, got that?
Just one moment. Connecting you now.
Oh, thank you.
Mumble, mumble, mumble.
This is a good-looking system.
Is it dialing? Is it ringing? I can't hear it ringing.
Hello?
Hello. Is that you, Carolyn?
Yes.
Hi, this is Johnny Young speaking from Young Talent Time.
Oh, wow. How you doing?
Can you see me on the telly? Yes.
You've got a good-looking girl. Give her a clap.
That's Carolyn.
Carolyn, this is a 1940s show,
and you sent in a request that I really love
called Bonnie and Clyde,
which is sort of about the 20s, really,
but it sort of fits the era, doesn't it, Greg?
You want to say hello to Greg, Carolyn?
OK. Here he comes.
This is Greg Pointon here.
G'day, Carolyn. Hi.
How are you? Good. Smooth, isn't he?
Good to hear.
I'll pass you back to the man. Oh, good.
Listen, if you want a girlfriend,
you're going to have to talk a little longer than that on the phone.
Carolyn, that...
That was Greg,
and really nice to talk to you,
and thanks for being our Young Talent Time phone request.
And here comes Natalie and Vince
to sing Bonnie and Clyde for you.
OK? Bye, Carolyn.
Nice to have you with us.
Bonnie and Clyde
The baby-looking people
That I can tell you people
They were the devil's traitors
Bonnie and Clyde
Began their evil doings
On a lazy afternoon
Dancing then away
They wrapped a star
And hid till they'd out of that town
Got clean away in a stolen car
And rooted till the heat died down
Bonnie and Clyde
Thanks for their reputation
And made their graduation to the banking
The beach for the sky
The dog and Clyde would holler
Bonnie rode the dialers into the tulip bag
Bonnie and Clyde got to be public enemy number one
Running and hiding from every American lawman's gun
They used to laugh at the time
But deep inside they knew
That pretty soon they'll be lying
When these blue clouds together push it up
They used to laugh at the sun in the morning dew
Bonnie and Clyde
They lived a lot together
And finally together they died
Well it's a one for the fun of it, two for the taste
Protects your teeth cause it's Colgate
That's blue gel
You love the taste of blue
Well you can't stop brushing, brushing with the blue gel tube
When you brush longer your teeth will be stronger
It's a cry in the heart
It's the pain of a child
It's the hunger you see
In the eyes of the children
It's a cry, it's a cry
So I'll give it a go for you, yes I'll give it a go for you
Go for you, yes for 40 hours I will give it a go for you

Where does he get it from, obviously the musical side comes from you Ray because you're a saxophonist in a band yes
Not necessarily John, both sides are very musical, yes my word
Were you ever on the stage, so old
The first one out of town
When did Bevan start to show an affinity with music and performing
When he was about three
No, when he was about three months or six, seven months
When he started to call and time and cock his leg to the music
Yes he did, when he was about nine months old
When he was nine months old he started to cock his leg to the music, I've got a cock a spaniel leg
If you would like to share with us right now because of course we've got some presentations to make to Bevan
And we want to hear him sing some of his favourite songs
But the boys from the editing department put together a little bit of a montage of some of the fun things that Bevan was involved in during his stay on Young Talent Time
So let's take a little look back to the Bevan Addensall years
This is a big moment for a young man because I'd like to introduce you to Bevan Addensall
And Bevan is our brand new Young Talent Time team member
