About this episode

Rove McManus shares stories from his career and a humorous encounter with Beyoncé.

Rove McManus stops by ahead of his show Tomorrow Night at the Grand Electric, a celebration of 25 years on Australian television featuring clips, stories and audience questions. He reveals he used to handwrite thank you cards to every single guest who appeared on Rove Live, and Ricki found hers in a box of memories while moving house. Beyoncé did not get one. He also tells the story of going backstage after her concert expecting VIP access and being turned away at the door, which is deeply relatable. Taskmaster is also on Channel 10 tonight featuring Rove and Joel Creasey, who Rove describes as watching a newborn duckling waddle around every single day.
