Fred Dagg Skits

Television (Excerpts) – 1975 - 1976

Plain and simple, John Clarke has been our greatest. He was the first who looked at us as people and set the blueprint for why and how New Zealanders are hilarious.
– Oscar Kightley in The Spinoff, 10 April 2017
If humour is common sense dancing, John Clarke was [Rudolf] Nureyev. He proved that you can laugh at this strange part of the world, and still keep your mind and heart fully engaged.
– Musician Don McGlashan in The Spinoff, 10 April 2017
The sharpest satirical wit ever to stab at Antipodean culture and politics.
– Michèle A'Court on John Clarke, The Spinoff, 10 April 2017
There's a lot of mythical pronouncements going on around the place — the air is fairly thick up our way with mythical pronouncements, and they will increase indeed as November the 29th approaches...
– The interviewer accuses Fred Dagg of making mythical policy pronouncements, in the 14th sketch
The present Prime Minister? ... very cordial indeed, matter of fact we had some cordial the other day together, and we get along very well.
– Lindsay Perigo asks about Fred Dagg's relationship with the Prime Minister, in the first sketch
It's hardly a cross section of the public, is it?
– The interviewer points out that all of Fred Dagg's supporters have Dagg in their surname, in the eighth sketch
It would be one of the silliest, waste of time non-event policies ever issued, I think, by any party, probably in the history of the world. It's entirely useless.
– Fred Dagg (John Clarke) on his new law and order policy (in the seventh sketch)
