How dopey are Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway, faced with the wrong card at the Oscars, and not able to work out how to deal with the situation. Beatty, in particular, says he realised he had the wrong card but his script didn't have the words he needed, so he simply handed the card to Ms Dunaway who blurted out the wrong announcement.
I wonder how many times in history a man, faced with a difficult situation, has handed over the problem to a woman and smiled while she fixed it.
It's hard not to see the parallels with our current Parliament, depicted this morning on the cover of the Daily Telegraph as clowns. The chief clown, Malcolm, always looks like a deer in the headlights as he desperately looks for someone to pass the ball to. But all he can see are Morrison, Dutton and Brandis. Come home, Julie, your country needs you.
