As the Jackson Jive were an Australian (amateur) act on an Australian show, its fair enough that only Australian sensibilties were taken into account. Being one of, if not the most laid back country on Earth meant an act like that was a safe bet (a 10 news poll found 89% of voters werent offended) Yes it was a crap act, but worth having on if only for the nostalgia trip. The groups original appearance in the 80s found its way onto countless Hey Hey gag reels over the last 20 years. The international controversy this has whipped up is the real joke. |
