Ernie Carroll was a staple of tv screens for decades from IMT to the Tarax Show and most notably on Hey Hey it's Saturday.  But he was a very humble, shy man who was rarely interviewed and never sought the limelight as "Ernie".

So it's almost fitting that he passed away as the world was geqaring up for Shane Warne's memorial service.  There was no rrom in the media for anything else.  Ernie probably would have liked it that way.

But he can't stop me paying tribute here. 

This audio contains four parts.

1) Me rambling on for about three minutes
2) Some words from Eddie McGuire, Sam Newman, Denis Walter, and Bruce Eva. 
3) Hey Hey exec producer Pam Barnes in an emotional interview with Denis Walter
4) A sketch of "Division Saturday" starring Ossie, Daryl, and Blackers.
