The original cast of Adam Hills, Alan Brough and Myf Warhurst are onboard for the trip down memory lane.

The show will kick off the ABC’s Ausmusic Month in November and the team will be returning old favourite games, some new surprises, and plenty of laughs.

The team captains will be joined by award-winning rapper Adam Briggs, singer, songwriter Ricki-Lee Coulter and comedians Frank Woodley and Denise Scott.  Plus dropping in on the night will be a line-up of Australia’s music greats, both past and present.

The show originally ran for seven years and was a popular weekly viewing habit for many, it came to an end in 2011. The ABC revived the show in 2014 with a new cast but it was not as popular as the teaming of Hills, Warhurst and Brough.
