Help find Steele Jensen

Hello children,

Despite going through a busy period due to exams, I have taken some time out to make a worthwhile appeal to all the people throughout Brisbane (and possibly the world). The appeal I speak of, is for all of you to assist in any way you can to find Steele Jensen.

Steele Jensen is the former host of now defunct Briz31 TV game show, Crazy Crosswords. Throughout 1995 (and with the miracle of TV repeats - even now) he brought joy and laughter into households throughout Brisbane with his quirky hybrid of physical and verbal comedy. His plucky interaction with contestants, halarious foreign accents and daring street-talk segments were a breath of fresh air when stacked up against better paid, but always less innovative, game show hosts such as Larry Emdur and Glenn Ridge.

Unfortunately, due to the inherent cruelty of the cut-throat industry that is community television, Steele is nowhere to be found today. Tragically, a google search for 'Steele Jensen' retrieves no URL's whatsoever and a google search for 'Crazy Crosswords' produces 3 results; only one of which has anything to do with the actual show. The Briz31 website (www.briz31.tv) gives not so much as a picture of Steele or his beautiful co-host, Velvet, instead opting for an unflattering 70 word description of the show.

I urge all of you to do whatever you can to find Steele Jensen. A man with this talent and raw likeability should not be made to work like a dog on the stand-up circuit or on the dole. Let's get him back where he belongs - on television, where he can continue to enrich our lives and, once again, make us believe that television can be a great artistic medium.

Please, do what ever you can. At the very least tune into Crazy Crosswords - its on Briz31 at 11pm weeknights.

Hi Yuri,
good luck with the search. It is a noble quest. I will add your blog to the list along with the many lame ITEE students whose lives I follow vicariously.

to be mentioned (or alluded to) in the same sentence as Ned Martin and Clint Felmingham is certainly the highlight of my life so far. Thank you, readbeard.

Hi, I would like to know what you ate for dinner last night and how much it cost. If you cooked it, can you possibly specify how long it took (in seconds)? How many people were on the bus last night? Was there a noisy person in the labs? This is what I look for in a blog. You are on the right track. Neddy Martin.

Two minute noodles take two minutes FROM THE BOIL. Even allowing time to put out the many spot fires my cooking causes out, which are admittedly more my fault than the good people at Maggi's, I have never seen more outrageously false advertising.

the other lame itee blog guy.
