Who the @#$% Is She?
One of the most political comedians around, Lynda Gibson has also appeared in television programmes such as the hilarious soapie "Let The Blood Run Free", the classic "Frontline" and the current children's programme, "Pig's Breakfast". Lynda has also had several film appearances, including the much acclaimed "The Castle".
During the 1980s, Gibson was a member of the Normal Normans, for which she, Denise Scott, Lynne McGranger and Sally-Anne Upton donned sunglasses, tuxedos and moustaches! These days, however, Lynda is a lot better known for her biting humour than her sequinned collar and can be seen around the Melbourne Comedy scene or heard on RRR radio.

TRISH O'CONNOR - FRONTLINE
Trish O'Connor is the network head of publicity, and is known as somewhat of a "ball-breaker". She is the one responsible for giving Mike Moore the huge profile he now has (how does she sleep at night?) and is one of the best in the biz... with the alcohol consumption to prove it.

In Your Own Words
Digital Liasons
I worry for a living...
but I'd rather be watching T.V..
To chillout, I watch T.V...can't get enough.
I'm reading newspapers full of how wonderful Jeff is...
drinking red wine and black coffee...
and eating cheese and tomato sandwiches.
The thing I make best is a roll-up cigarette.
The last website I visited was the ALP...it took me ages...
In a gallery I'm most likely drawn to the cafe.
The piece of technology that has shaped my life the most is the wheel and subsequently the car because I don't drive.
I find inspiration in dogs.
When I'm in a bad mood I listen to Macca all over.
Everything stirs my passions because I'm so sensitive and passionate.
Paradise is... I've been there but I've never been to me.
You can find me in the cafe section of the bookshop.
The first thing I read in the paper is the front page (is this a trick question).
The first thing I do when I switch on the computer is make a cup of coffee.
The first thing I look at when I meet a person is their head.
I wish I was a rich man...dadedadedadum...

A review of Lynda's 2000 Comedy Festival show - "Comedy Is Not Pretty" - with Judith Lucy and Denise Scott

Comedy Is Not Pretty
For the 1999 Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Gibson got together with Judith Lucy and Denise Scott for this show, which involved both each of the women doing their own pieces of stand up, and group efforts, which sometimes degenerated into most amusing violence.

She'll Be Right
Lynda's 1998 Melbourne International Comedy Festival Show was summed up in the festival guide as:
"This is a comfortable and relaxed show about Australia and Lynda's place in it (down the bottom and to the left). Growing up in the big country, lucky country, the land of the long white Liberal, the esky, the wine cask, AC/DC and the Aspro was not all ticketyboo."
