Get This Salutes Alf Camilleri (1952 - 2007)


Fans of Tony's early-nineties stomping ground 'The Late Show' will recall several hilarious appearances by the show's beloved propsman, Alfred Manuel Camilleri. To the shock of all who loved him, Alf passed away in January, but his memorable work as Saddam Hussein, Shifty Calhoun and every woman's 'dream date' remain burned in the memory, like his trademark smile and unfailing ability to pull the perfect prop out of his arse at very short notice. Goodbye Alf, from all your fans.

Nerd fact: Alf Camilleri played Saddam Hussein on 'The Big Gig' (1989 - 1991), 'The Late Show' (1992 - 1993) and 'Totally Full Frontal' (1998). He outlived the Iraqi dictator by three weeks.
