In response to those who have asked what Bill Oddie's Australian Tour will be like, here are more details.  The show is Bill reminiscing about his complete career to date, most particularly The Goodies, bringing clips never seen in Australia. During the course of the show Bill will answer questions submitted by fans and lead the audience in singing a Goodies classic. Which song you ask? They'll keep that for a surprise on the night!

The show will have two 40 minute sessions separated by a 20 minute intermission.
A meet and greet area will be set up post show for fans to meet Bill and purchase his tour merchandise. The first half of the show will focus on Bill's School and Uni Days; Other Projects Before The Goodies; and The Goodies - its First Years.  The second session will include Audience Questions; What is Bill Doing Now?; Projects After The Goodies; and The Goodies Glory Days.

Don't forget to send in (to http://www.billoddietour.com.au/enter-competition-here.html) the question you want answered by Bill Oddie! The 5 judged most interesting or unique in each state will be selected and those audience members will win the opportunity to ask their question directly to Bill live at the event!

Tickets for all 5 shows are on sale from http://www.billoddietour.com.au/shows.html
