ROVE NINEMSN CHAT Stella_9ms: Welcome...how does it feel to be amongst your greatest fans on the net? Rove: Rove here! Good. Very good. Glad to have you all here. Lets break a record out there kids :) Stella_9ms: I think we have already, so I better start feeding you guys the questions...Messner says: question for Rove "what is your name?" Rove : Rove Mc Manus Stella_9ms: Pulsator says: Question - where did Rove go to school? He's kinda weird. Rove: I went to primary school in Orana and Corpor Christie High School in Perth, so I'm a private school wanker. Stella_9ms: daves_missus says: Who votes Dave the sexiest man alive? Dave: Thank you very much but you're a bit sad. But lovely yourself. Stella_9ms: Tweety says: Rove, is there any chance of the show getting an earlier time slot? Rove: We'll see out the end of the year and take it from there. No plans as yet. Stella_9ms: Unfrufu says: Rove, does it bug you with all the comparisons to Darryl, I always thought that you were taller, and funnier. Rove: I'd rather be the first Rove Mc Manus than the next anybody else. Peter wants to be the 3rd Julia Roberts. Stella_9ms: Abby says, how did the cast get together? Corinne: An orgy. Pete: During a blue light disco, Mc Hammers "You can't touch this" and there was magic from there. Stella_9ms: Unfrufru says: Rove or Dave, did either of you slip the tongue in last weeks show, if not did you at least rehearse a lot? Dave: It was totally spontaneous. I just seized the moment. Rove: He wouldn't let me as much as I tried. Pete: I like to watch. Stella_9ms: Schae says: Is Kynan likely to have a more on screen role in the future? Kynan: Yes, but possibly played by someone else. Rove: Who's Kynan? Stella_9ms: Unfrufu says: Rove, when you went to Fox studios, did you live or die a terrible leo-esque death on the Titanic experience? Rove: I died much like I do on the show every week. Stella_9ms: Sailor Dancer says: I have a question for Corinne...do you feel you're the Julie Mc Crossin of Rove? Corinne: That's a huge compliment. I love Julie, but Rove's nowhere near as good looking as Paul Mc Dermott. Rove: I agree. Stella_9ms: Hoshi says: How does the whole crew feel about going from comedians to "personalities" in such a short time? Pete: It's always been on the cards, and if we can emulate the work of the great Samazans and Papps and Codman... Stella_9ms: Flick says: When is Rove going to get a visit from "This is your Life"? Rove: Hang on a second, I'll ask Ray Martin. Ray Martin: Mike Munroe will be in tomorrow. Rove: I have no life, so it's kind of irrelevant. Stella_9msn: Unfrufu says: Dave, where do you get your ideas for words that soun better when you say them? Dave: Well, people send them in. But they're just words I've always liked. Stella_9ms: Rove, where is the best place in Perth to start stand-up comedy? Pete: Melbourne. Rove: I wouldn't know, I haven't been there in a while, but while I was there, it was Pockets Nightclub.
