[edit] Before Comedy?
At school, I was told by one of my close friends that Chris Lilley used to be a after school teacher, teaching drama sometimes. Wondering if someone could do some further research into this? Thanks, andrewrox424 Bleep 07:21, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Gay?
I heard somewhere that Chris Lilley was gay?
I think it might've even been on Wikipedia, but I'm not sure. Could someone do some reasearch into this?
-Thanks Gay15boy 12:00, 29 September 2007 (UTC) if you did even a moments research you could find out for your self, how lazy —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.210.157.17 (talk) 09:08, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
I recall reading an article (if I can find it I will link to it) about him living with his girlfriend. Just because he plays a (probably) gay character as Mr G, and female characters such as Ja'mie doesn't mean he has to be gay. He's just a very good method actor.
His sexuality is also pretty irrelevant to his acting and writing anyway.

[edit] Section on Ja'mie King
Ja'mie is discussed on the articles relevent to the 2 shows she is featured in and does not need to be discussed here. Mr. G on the other hand is a character Lilley has portrayed in several sketch comedy shows and is a suitable addition to this article. The KZA 06:06, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Phrasing
I find the line "best known for portraying numerous characters in the series..." to be a bit misleading, as if there were other prominent characters that he didn't play, or that he wasn't the star. Anyone want to try rephrasing it? Perhaps make it "his" series, or leave out the reference to various characters as that is covered in some detail below? Nshady16 12:41, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Brothers?
What does this mean? "...twin brothers in which one confusedly gives his brothers his ear drum to cure his hearing disabled brother..."--Pharod42 22:15, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
- Fixed, hopefully it makes more sense now. Nshady16 (talk) 04:04, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Bigbitemrg.jpg
Image:Bigbitemrg.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] From Sydney
He may have been born and grown up in Sydney, but hasn't he lived in Melbourne for some years now? That deserves a mention; it's at least as relevant as where his early upbringing happened. -- JackofOz (talk) 00:21, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
