After walking past some photos of network luminaries Daryl Somers, Graham Kennedy and Ossie Ostrich, we “wormologists” were herded into a waiting room just outside the studio and told to watch a schmaltzy health and safety video while we waited. Conversation swung from friends and family who had been on Deal or No Deal to the calibre of the combatants in the Great Health Debate. We were spoiling for a fight, but as the worm-trail now shows, the Prime Minister won handsomely - at least by our measure. There is some much-needed debate about the efficacy and accuracy of Channel 9’s worm. As one of Nine’s one hundred wormologists, I’m here to tell our side of the story. feedback@thepunch.com.au (Nathan Joyce) Article http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/a-wormologist-speaks-it-is-all-about-theatre/#comments http://www.thepunch.com.au/articles/a-wormologist-speaks-it-is-all-about-theatre/#item2710 Thu, 25 Mar 2010 19:59:56 +0000 Nathan Joyce | Author bios | The Punch
