Quotes
I hope your balls turn to bicycle wheels and backpedal up your ass!- Barry McKenzie
Mon Dieu. I tell ya, Baz, I'd'a crawled over 'alf a mile of broken glass just to hear that little sheila piss into an empty jam tin.- Colin 'The Frog' Lucas
I'm that randy I could root the hair on a barber shop floor.- Barry McKenzie
Have you ever balled another chick, Mrs Everage?- Rhonda Cutforth-Jones
I may be old fashioned, young woman, but lesbianism has always left a nasty taste in my mouth.- Auntie Edna Everage
Look, let me out of here. I mean, there'd be no Mother England if it wasn't for Australia. Our fighting men came over here when you Poms were ready to throw in the towel. Musso and them slimy yellow nips would've flattened this dump if it hadn't been for me uncles and their superlative fighting spirit. I mean the game was nearly up for youse poms, no risk. And if it hadn't been for Australia, Musso and them slant-eyed pricks would've strung every white kiddie up by the pills and gone chocka-block with all the nurses and bus conductresses. Oh look, let me outta here you ungrateful Pommy bastard!- Barry McKenzie
Trivia
Australia's then Prime Minister Gough Whitlam and his wife, Margaret, play themselves in the film. Barry Humphries knew someone who lived in the Lodge (the Prime Minister's official residence), who arranged it.
Four Eyes Fenton's voice isn't the actors the director did all his lines and overdubbed them.
