Chris once again got his VIP on and attended the 2012 Tropfest film festival yesterday in Sydney. We’ve added a few photos of him from the event to our gallery which you can view HERE. We’ll add more as we come across them, so continue to check back for updates.

Great news for all NZ fans of Chris Lilley – the 3 disc edition of Angry Boys hit shelves today! Go get your copy in store or online now to add to your Chris collection! Did you enjoy the finale that aired last night on Comedy Central? We’d love to hear your thoughts on the episode and the whole series.
There will also be a Chris Lilley marathon starting soon featuring all 3 of Chris’ shows We Can Be Heroes, Summer Heights High and Angry Boys airing soon on Comedy Central NZ. Rumor has it to be Feburary 5 but continue to check out Chris’ Facebook and Twitter where he will let all fans know of the official date and time!
I’ve also been getting a lot of requests over the past month for fans wanting Angry Boys tees, particularly US fans. Factorie have discontinued their range of tees (which you have previously seen pics of here on CLF.net) but my local ABC shops are selling their last “I ? Dunt” and Angry Boys logo tees for $15AUS each. So that’ll probably be your best option for now, I can still check Factorie out, but I’m not sure what styles they will have there if any. Hit me up quick at clfforum@hotmail.com if still interested because there weren’t a lot left.
Update on the Best of 2011 e-book: I will be publishing the e-book tomorrow in celebration of AUSTRALIA DAY here Down Under. Stay tuned for it!

Hey guys! A couple of years back my friend and I contacted channel 7 and requested they’d show repeats of Hamish and Andy’s self titled show back from ‘04 featuring Chris and guess what? They did! Unfortunately they showed the series on their digital channel which I didn’t have at the time so I missed out on watching/recording it. I was thinking we should all contact channel 7 individually and request they air it again! It doesn’t matter what channel (Mate, 2 etc) and whatever time cause either way I’ll be able to record it this time around as will many of you! If they listened to my friend and myself, surely they’ll listen if 50+ of us ask about it. US/UK fans help out too! You can all pretend you live in Australia just like you all truly want to. 
Contact channel 7 Melbourne HERE and/or channel 7 Sydney HERE.
Mail your requests to this address: (which we did)
Seven Network
PO BOX 777
PYRMONT NSW 2009
Let’s do it!

We have an unofficial announcement to make to all Melbourne fans. According to this lineup of the 2012 Big Day Out, S.mouse is scheduled to perform between the time of 12.20-12.40PM at Melbourne’s BDO. No other cities (ie. Sydney) have been stated as of yet. Featured on other lineup’s across the net, he is listed as a “special guest” so we can’t confirm it 100% but ABC Music posted this tweet a few weeks back:
“Had an amazing meeting with @ChrisLilley this afternoon about a very exciting music project soon to be announced. Watch. This. Space!!”
So we’re assuming that it may have something to do with this. We’ll wait for an official announcement from Chris himself before we state anything else. Stay tuned!
