Kerry O'Keeffe & Harsha Bhogle - Skippy The Bush Kangaroo ABC cricket commentary

Kerry O'Keeffe & (confused) Harsha Bhogle on ABC Grandstand's commentary of the 2nd Test between Australia and India at the SCG, January 4th 2012, discuss and sing the Skippy The Bush Kangaroo theme.

A lot of the crowd were listening to this on their radios and sang along to the skippy song. Great times!

My partner and I were sailing back from Kangaroo Island, literally 😅 , when were listening to Kerry's explanation on Skippy the bush kangaroo. I was in stitches on the floor of the cockpit and my partner had to steer. Hilarious. Thanks Kerry, we miss you. 🤣😂

When Harsha explains how he grew up without television in India Didn't you go to a mates house to watch it Brilliant Kerry

[@ChannelGilly]

Skull is a Legend . Pity he's not on ABC anymore

[@delailama736]

I understand he wanted to retire but the offer from Fox he just couldn't refuse. I still think ABC is the best commentary.

[@lxpang]

I think he was on triple m for a couple years before fox and after abc. He had a talk show on 2GB for a bit. His son got him set up with his own youtube channel nut it didn't last.

I love Kerry...

[@nitikamathur9661]

We did get Skippy in India. It was around 1997-98, i guess. My sister and I loved it!

[@1969cmp]

[@russe19642]

[@shobitsharma6690]

[@MasalaKoala]

Love Harsha: "I’m greatly privileged, that you believe, me living in India, growing up with no television, should know all about Australia’s culture cartoon technical, Ah cartoon icons!"

[@markdowse3572]

I love Mr Harsha Bhogle. Such a gent....

[@ahmadfarrall2097]

There was no one like Kerry, informative and entertaining

[@WillCamx]

Don't know if Skippy ever made it to India but I remember watching it in the UK in the early 70's.

[@aono335]

skippy was very briefly in India but was soon replaced by the barrage of american shows.

[@rosssutherland9068]

Grandstand hasn't been the same without this man, K O K brought life and comedy to an otherwise boring commentary

[@carlcavarra9194]

What a legend skull is so funny 🤣🤣🤣

[@nicholasjohnson6724]

[@48Ender48]

[@bringingtherukas7473]

Abc Radio will never be the same, hope he alteast drops in for the sydney tests.

[@bringingtherukas7473]

[@sudhangshudas3099]

My god did he really do that on live radio? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 How unlucky I am to not witness this live.

[@danielsmart8398]

Yep, he’s mad 😂

[@robertruggiero9999]

In India it was Skipinder … Skipinder …. Skipinder the Sikh kangaroo

[@gaius_enceladus]

India, India.... I'm disappointed that you didn't get "Skippy" back in the 70s! :)) We got it in New Zealand!

[@aono335]

India did get Skippy in 70s but was soon overshadowed and finally replaced by barrage of american animated shows.

[@alokmtu]

GOLD!

[@aldershot5100]

A laugh than can close a Convent School

[@Ozmulki]

Harsha is baffled 😃

[@commodore665]

Good god , I had that album @2:45

[@russe19642]

We had the dinner plates

[@richardjones3625]

How did Skippy know the new name for the PCR test-he must be one smart kangy.Kiwi

[@BGone-mb7wz]

I can only surmise that you like watching wanders - otherwise, why did you check out the video?

[@Anderschristoph125]

Hahaha! Yes harsha certainly mangled that sentence. Golden commentary though, this is why i listen to the abc and not those nine stiffs.

[@danielsmart8398]

Poor old Harsha, must have been thinking “get me away from this lunatic” 😂

[@venderstrat]

[@alakbar7870]

What a weirdo. 🙄

[@joashjohnston7119]
