Facelift - Best of 2004

2004 22m Television
  • Comedy

This never broadcast episode collects the best moments from season one of Gibson Group's 'prosthetically enhanced' comedy show. There's digs galore at media personalities and politicians. The writers have fun placing veteran broadcaster Paul Holmes (brilliantly played by Grant Walker) and his rival John Campbell (Cohen Holloway) in the ring, for a send-up of celebrity boxing match Fight for Life. Don Brash (Alan Brunton) imagines a New Zealand under the rule of 'the Don', and former PM David Lange pops in to show Helen Clark (Lorae Parry) how to tell a tale.
