About this listen

John Clarke's award-winning satire, centred on the Sydney Organising Committee of the 2000 Summer Olympic Games.

Possibly not sanctioned by the official international Olympic Committee, The Games is the ground-breaking deadpan comedy that took a satirical look at the organisational triumph which produced the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.

Documentary cameras were given carte blanche access to the offices of top-flight bureaucrats as they negotiated their way through complex issues, PR disasters, budget blowouts, political interference and 100-metre running tracks that were not strictly accurate in terms of length.

Episodes include: 'The 100 Metres Track', 'New Technology and Y2k', 'J'Accuse', 'Land Claim', 'Inquiry', 'Strike', 'Immigration' and 'Solar and the End'.

A ratings sensation, winner of the Logie for Most Outstanding Comedy programme and an AFI Award for Best Screenplay, The Games stars John Clarke, Gina Riley, Bryan Dawe and Nicholas Bell.
