Words by Bryget Chrisfield Although he’s the son of a coach driver, Tom Allen has been “cursed with a posh voice” – the way he pronounces Yarra (River) as Yah-rra! – and we could listen to his singsongy delivery, and icy retorts, aaaall night. Allen’s faux outrage is our favourite mode.

“Whenever MG walked into a room, the atmosphere shifted; not out of fear, more admiration. His presence was mighty. No one could hold court quite like Gudinski. And that gravelly voice of his always sounded like way too many good times & late nights” 💔☝🏼 https://t.co/zNqw10aCtS https://t.co/wEBuo8NwTs

I’M NOT WORTHY! Ticked off a bucket-list IV subject & got my jollies BIG time! Alice on Alice: “He’s a villain, but he’s funny. And he’s very arrogant, but at the same time he can slip on a banana peel any time” 🙌🏼☠️🎩🐍 #lovemyjob #careerhighlight https://t.co/bnt5XnM7uz https://t.co/iKzXBf34u6
