Oasis Returns After 16 Years: Liam Gallagher’s Real Name Revealed
Liam Gallagher returned to the stage over the weekend with his brother Noel, but many fans may be surprised that his real name is not in fact…
Channel Seven’s heavily promoted Roast of John Cleese special was absolutely destroyed in the ratings on Tuesday night by Nine’s Married At First Sight.
According to industry website TV Blackbox, 1,489,000 tuned into MAFS while the John Cleese special only attracted 458,000 viewers.
It comes after Seven heavily promoted the roast and brought in several Aussie stars to take a dig at Cleese, including Tom Gleeson, Joel Creasey and Rhonda Burchmore.
Viewers were much more interested in seeing MAFS couple Andrea Thompson and Richard Sauerman feud on screen during a very heated moment on the reality show.
Andrea’s, 51, first blow out with the motivational speaker, 62, occurred earlier in the episode when they tried to discuss how they could save their fractured relationship.

Meanwhile, irate viewers slammed the John Cleese comedy special.
‘We Australians do not do comedy well. The John Cleese roast was a shocker,’ one upset fan sniped.
‘It’s important when you’re roasting John Cleese on national TV to actually roast the recipient,’ a second person added.

‘I can’t believe I streamed this,’ a third person chipped in and a fourth added: ‘This always sounded dodgy’.
The special was filmed last year in front of an audience at Melbourne’s Crown Casino, and was hosted by Shane Jacobson.
Cleese, 84, was treated to a whole host of good natured insults thanks to a series of celebrity guests.

Meanwhile, over on Nine the heated MAFS episode saw groom Richard unable to take his wife Andrea’s criticisms on-board and learn from his past mistakes in their union.
‘Richie, you just keep choosing not to listen. I understand you’re frustrated,’ she attempted to explain.
In a very aggressive and angry display, Andrea slammed her notebook hard against the table, yelling: ‘You just did it again! You’re driving me crazy!’
Despite the visible overload of emotions, Richard didn’t let up, adding: ‘You are blaming me for stuff in your past relationships. You won’t own that. I’m not that guy.’
