TDT Reviews 1973; Smacka Fitzgibbon Sings The Adventures Of Edward Gough Whitlam

Dec 14, 1973

In its final program for the year, the ABC’s nightly current affairs show, This Day Tonight, referred to as TDT, devoted itself to a review of Gough Whitlam’s first 12 months in government.

One of the items on TDT was Smacka Fitzgibbon singing The Adventures of Edward Gough Whitlam, a take-off of The Adventures of Barry McKenzie.

Note: I’m not absolutely sure what day this broadcast was shown but I believe it was Friday, December 14, 1973.

  • Listen to the complete TDT program
  • Listen to The Adventures of Edward Gough Whitlam
  • 30 seconds of the song are shown at the end of this clip:
