These comments sure are bringing out the rapidly dwindling minority homophobes who cant hack the social changes that are leaving then deep in the past. Rex is dead and so is old australia, mourn the loss then join the rest of us in the present
@@jockmctodger And neither would you pack of crying bloody whingers be able to hack a war. You lot cry about being asked to get vaccinated. Over-dramatising the situation and ignorantly comparing it to what went on in WW2 and how Jewish people were treated. Oh yeah, you lot are so brave and can handle a war, ay. You can't even take a jab to help protect your loved ones or your neighbour, let alone fight for your country 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Day in and day out, you lot are constantly whinging and crying about not being able to be a-holes anymore, not being allowed to be nasty pr*cks. You lot rant about others being snowflakes, and yet, you lot are the biggest bunch of cry babies, it's hilarious.
Hasn’t this aged interestingly. Thanks for the recommend RU-vid 😒 A wonderful reminder of the absolute sway the small-minded bigots had when gen x was growing up.
Julian Clary is a lovely guy. Everybody is entitled to their own opinions and have a right to feel the way they do, but it's quite a different matter to be outright insulting to another person and to treat them like dirt on your shoe.
@@subjectandpredicate7172 How the hell was Julian in the wrong? It was all on Steve and the producers who clearly set that up for the ratings. You could tell that poor Julian could feel that he was being used to send up Rex for the ratings. Julian didn't do a damn thing wrong to Rex. Rex brought it on himself, if the crowd was displeased with the way he spoke so negatively towards Julian and people like him. Not everyone is forced to love bigots like Rex, either.
I agree but this was all Vizard's fault for having them on together, just to provoke this kind of nonsense for ratings. It's like bringing a pig into your dining room and expecting it to use cutlery and make friendly chit-chat.
This interview was gold such iconic moment in Australian TV even people who are LGBT community found it funny up their with the Normie Row and Ronnie Casey Midday show Biff.
Huh?! He had died about 9 years before you left that comment, Dazza. Who else do you wanna bring back from the dead, to join you all in whinging about bloody everything these days? 🤣🤣🤣
Some of us were always politically correct. I had a hateful father who make himself feel good referred to anyone he felt inferior by derogatory names. Wog, dago etc.
Yeah, how terrible that people are not allowed to be such outspoken, homophobic, racist, misogynistic pieces of shit now! Just a shame that this country is still infested with it. Just look at the shithole called Queensland.
There's Vizard with his David Letterman carbon-copy format of a show. Mossop could have buttered the floor with him if he'd wanted to. Nobody can be to accept anything they find objectionable...which is what Vizard's show was.
RIP Rex "Moose" Mossop. Ok I know he had some very opinionated views on things that differed from a lot of people but he was a legend of both rugby codes and in Australian television.
That amount of passive aggressive disdain is just pointless, and says more about him, than how terrible he thinks being gay is. When you're a 'real man', as he might say, a big pink gay guy wouldn't bother you at all, because you'd be so confident in who you are, it would just be funny or maybe interesting in that you don't see that everyday! Being that hateful is so ugly, live & let live & be happy Rex; you never know you might need a Gay Lawyer, Gay Policeman, or Gay Surgeon one day ;-)
@ozsasin trouble with those sort of het aussie blokes is they are null and void and have become outdated as Australia globalised. Bogans are always a good laugh but somehow miss that the joke that is on them.
@@yessir863 Well can't blame him. He was pretty hot back then and actually had BRAINS, unlike 99.9% of the dumbfuck, homphobic scum he played with (phrasing) and against in league. Football of whatever "code" is so full of closet cases and always will be.
I reckon Steve could count himself lucky, Rex was one of the toughest and roughest rugby players to ever play for Australia in either code....... very lucky me thinks
@@sonnyblack6121 Rex Mossop is from the era of the White Australia Policy,Aboriginal being taken at birth and not allowed to vote,and LGBT being locked up for being "dysfunctional ".But he has to move with the times and he clearly hasn't
Steve wasn't taking the piss in a nasty, malicious way, though. He wasn't acting like gay people had the plague or anything like that. He was showing camp men for what they were actually like. In fact, it was a skit that was massively loved by gay people everywhere across Australia. It actually helped to make gay people a bit more acceptable. So why you're trying to bring that up, as if Steve was doing a bad thing, is hilarious. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@darrencottam1146 I happen to know many, MANY gay people, dear. So yeah, don't cry just because you don't and you naively think that Steve was being mean to gay people. 🤣🤣🤣 As for Elon Musk.. you lot didn't give a damn about him, until the last week or so. Only now you all decide to desperately grasp onto him as your new poster boy, since your precious Trump has gone into hiding, crying about how the election was "stolen", all because he can't handle losing. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I've been using YT for more than 13 years, actually. And I've never even bothered with Twitter, nor could care less what happens to it. I don't give a frig what your poster boy is doing with it either because Twitter and YT are two totally different things.
@tw25rw I agree. People are conditioned to adopt a fashionable morality instead of making an educated and informed conclusion of one's own. However - the point is, any reasonable free-thinking moralist wouldn't come to the conclusions that he did because they're bigoted and unfounded.
@andrewinbrisbane Steve Vizard was the king of late night TV 15 years ago, who is now? We can't even invest in late night TV anymore since Rove left. Vizard was clever and knew what to asked and stirred the pot, I'm sure you have been cheeky at some stage in your life. Calm down and go and squash some cane toads.
@@ashtonrichardson3825 Nah, it's only sheilas for this top bloke. Maybe I'd have been tempted to pound it with my pork sausage after a few more sherbets, not entirely sure. What about yourself squire? Do you swallow?
@@jockmctodger No, Julian offered to take Rex out for a drink afterwards, and Rex wanted to say yes, but not in front of the audience. I heard they had a grand old time that night, back at the hotel, with that big old queen sized bed 😂😂😂
This was a stitch up from the beginning. They knew what was going to happen when these 2 sat down together. I loved Tonight live but shame on whoever thought this up
Rex and Julian were both in the 'Green Room' together so, at its 'best', this is just contrived silliness (and didn't Vizard also enjoy doing his 'flamboyant' male flight attendant …)
Yeah, and he's become a very wealthy bloke too, with all the other things he's done on tv and behind the cameras, over the decades. He has created and produced shows that you've probably watched a lot and loved a lot, and you didn't even realise that he was behind the show in some way, shape or form.
@@Holden308 I beg to differ. Rex was happy to wear his bigot badge.... UNTIL he realised that no-one in the audience was going to agree with his bigoted views. Then he chucked a wobbly and threatened to walk out. Face it. Bigots are all big and tough when they're in their packs and can gang up, or can hide behind their keyboards anonymously. But get them on their own, shine a light on them in public, and they are so very quick to weaken like water and play the victim card. They're pathetic.
The 'tolerant' left shows it's true colors via "peaceful" protests - antifa, BLM and their degenerate alphabet allies throughout the West. Get over yourself.
Rex Mossop used to prance around in tight shorts, tackling other men to the ground (young, fit men who were also scantily clad in tight shorts) and rolled in the mud with 'em - yet he seems so conflicted and threatened by a homosexual - go figure! :-) That ain't no gentleman.
I don’t dislike gay people, I don’t deny their right to do whatever they wish in the privacy of their own home. But, I also find the thought of gay sex repulsive. This doesn’t make me a homophobe but I’m sure if gay people knew this was my view, I’d be mercilessly vilified. This set up is along similar lines. I doubt Rex would have cared less what gay people do in their private lives, but to provoke him wasn’t funny, it waa stupid.
in the original show, Steve Vizard asked Rex if he had ever worn ladies clothing. Rex said no emphatically. Then Steve showed a photo of Rex and some mates dressed up as ladies. It was so funny. lets all live in peace and see the funny side of life.
Fuck, give him a break,he was born in 1928 , it was a little different back then.Political Correctness did'nt exisit. If we dont embrace our past, we have no chance in the furture. GO Manly !!!
Plenty of people who were born back then, became very accepting of gay people by the 80's. Being born on a certain date doesn't mean that everyone was just as bigoted as each other. It's not about embracing the past. It's about not forgetting it... so as to learn from it. Embrace it, indeed. That's a laugh. 🤣🤣🤣
Too many hits on the rugby field. Clary was hard to take, all that young man's passage BS, while acting like butter wouldn't melt in his mouth. Sean Hughes' Sean Show was funnier than Clary's.
murray reed it is said that all is fair in love and war. Stated by a very well-known British Sheik --- Whats his name ??? oh yes.. Sheik Speare. Perhaps more likely Vizard was being unreasonable by provoking the now late and deceased Rex Mossop
How was it not fair? Vizard wanted to show up Rex for the massive bigot that he was. Rex was happy enough to wear that badge proudly. So Vizard just set the scene and Rex played along, until he realised that no-one in the crowd shared in his bigoted ways, and he decided to get his knickers in a knot and threaten to leave. And you wanna call that unfair? 🤣🤣🤣 How many millions and millions of times was it fair for men like Julian, who copped so much hatred and abuse from men like Rex, throughout their entire lives for decades? How many were vilified, crucified and even murdered, because men like Rex felt righteous to abuse men like Julian, just because they were deemed as "pansies" and so on. Oh, but showing up a man who proudly wore his bigot badge, is labelled as "not very fair". Pftt!! Spare us the violins for men like Rex. They've had their time, for centuries. Thank goodness those times they are a changing.
Well....................I was always a fan of Vizard. After this he loses points I think. Why would you go to the trouble of inviting somebody onto the show and deliberately bring up issues thst you know they dislike? Both of these guests deserve some level of respect whether you agree with their views. Vizard...........very stupid, dumb move!
@@tonywebster8582 Well how would you feel if someone refused to shake your hand,said you should not exist and insulted you about your lifestyle.Not nice is it?
I agree,it's just an uncommon outre sexuality 95 percent would never dream of,but they're generally fine as human beings,even so it's a minority thing and always will be and shouldn't be as in your face as it is
@@scottthornley4287 There are far more gay people out there than you would realise. In fact, there are even more people who desperately cling onto hiding in the closet all their lives. And they're the ones that usually rant and rave so much against gay people, because they just can't accept that they are that way themselves.
And why do we have to have you lot in our faces, all day, every bloody day, whinging about not liking this and that, whinging about how you can't do this and that anymore? You lot rant about snowflakes and so on. Yet, you're the biggest pack of whinging, crying babies going. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So it's Steve Vizard's fault that Rex is a bigot and Steve highlighted just how much of a hypocrite Rex was. Typical behaviour from likeminded bigots. Blame everyone else but yourself. 🤣🤣🤣
I saw this interview when it came on air and then as now I wish rex would have hit both Vizard and that thing Julian Clary, rex was a real man ,fair and honest and a gentleman at that , Vizard set rex up and that was evident from the star. all rex wanted to do was promote his book. RIP rex mossop a real MANS MAN
Rex was embarrassed because he knew he played a gay game involving bumsniffing and grabbing men in tight shorts. He was embarrassed that he was more of a sissy than Clary
You know Rex's name will be remembered longer that interviewer ever will. That was a discusting performance. He was entilted to his own opinion something that is not allowed anymore
@@brianmccutcheon3205 I agree with you.But personally I was very surprised Rec Mossop treated Julian Cleary like this.I would have thought he learned some decorum and proper interpersonal skills during all his years in the media and in sport.Even towards people he doesn't agree with
That's hilarious, Brian. 😂😂 I think you'll find far more Aussies over the age of 30 will remember Steve Vizard far more easily than the bigoted Rex Mossop. Nice try, but it's only sad old sooks who would remember Rex, and whinge about the days when you could get away with being a-holes. Now people call you an a-hole, and you lot carry on like even an bigger bunch of pansies. Go figure. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rex was a man's man, I remember watching this live & I thought what a disgrace. Rex used to host the weekly sports world program on channel seven each Sunday and was also seven's rugby league commentator and a great one too!. This interview was a complete gee up.
@@mrdemoncrusher3927 not a gentleman at all.Refusing to shake Julian Cleary's hand,saying he doesn't exist in his view and insulting him with a backhand comment.Fred Nile at least would have shaken hands and been respectful
@@mrdemoncrusher3927 I think Rex Mossop along with the Ron Caseys,Bruce Ruxtons,Arthur Tunstalls,etc were people of that era.They grew up with the White Australia Policy,Homosexuality being a crime, Aboriginals not being given the vote,and women only be given half the wages of men.They cannot let go of their world view because that's what everyone thought at that time
RIP Rex Mossop he was a classic and a gentleman of the highest order it’s a pity that men of his stature and his mindset are dying out with their morals of how it should be about gays “I don’t think about gay people” which is quite a contrast to what the Muslims of the world with their Sharia law and Jihad are saying about gay’s and what they want to do with not only gays but the infidels of this world. Men like Rex Mossop unfortunately are very thinly spread these days especially when the gay communities support these dogooders and neo socialist political parties that have given way too much power to the Islamite’s that will refer to Rex as an infidel when it comes to the treatment and the final solution to the gays of the world if god forbid they ever take over as they intend to. So all you dogooders of the world be careful of who you support because it will inevitably backfire on you and the Muslims and 18C are just the beginning of the things that will turn the tide against you, history has proven this in the past and as usual humans never learn.
Rex was a homophobic little prick who pranced around in tight shorts, sniffed bums and tacked men that he found masculine. He was a closet gay who was afraid of coming out
Vizard showed up Rex for the bigot he was. Rex was happy to wear his bigot badge, until he realised that no-one in the audience shared in his bigoted views, then he threw a hissy fit and threatened to walk. And we're supposed to feel sorry for Rex, the big old baby. 🤣🤣🤣
