    Gunston at his best, and a guest who was all-in for it - and even upped the game to match him, using her incredible allure. Gunston still managing his part perfectly, but how could you not be affected by such a great, and intelligent, funny beautiful woman using all her guile and charm ! Garry McDonald, comic genius, thanks for the memories!

    I too would be tongue tied and bewildered in her presence. I would melt if I was sitting that close to her as well. You could tell that she enjoyed the effect she had on men. She was incredible!

    Aside from being a great actress (with an amazing range, she could do any genre you threw at her) and a very unique beauty, Karen Black is hilarious! I can't even put my finger on whatever it is that she does, but man that ole black magic's got me under her spell!!! She can do nothing but sip tea and ask seemingly innocuous questions "How old are you?" and make me laugh and give me the shivers at the same time. I will always love Karen Black!

    If you want to piss your pants laughing, go from here to his interview with Sally Struthers. It's got to be the greatest interview ever conducted anywhere in the world!

    Norman Gunston (Garry Macdonald) is genuinely shy with women (despite having a beautiful model wife). He said in an interview that when Black asked him to kiss her, he genuinely went to pieces and got really nervous, so that's not him acting!

    Absolute solid gold. Where have all the lovely leading ladies gone that oozed sex appeal with _everything_ on? (Well, except the jacket, maybe). And if even that bloody dag Gunston can nearly get The One & Only Karen Black all over him, there's hope for me yet! ;^)
