Win a double-pass to Celia Pacquola's show in the Melbourne Comedy Festival on Thursday 27th March at 7:30pm. Entries close 5pm Thursday 20th March.

Fresh from Comedy Zone 2007 comes Raw Recruit 2006 Celia Pacquola in Celia Pacquola in...Hating Alison Bice. (Please note: Alison Bice was a recipient of a Moosehead in 2007, but Celia does not want anyone knowing about that - no one). Vibewire.net decided to find out more:


1. Bananas in pyjamas are... not to scale.

2. For the talent portion of the competition, I will... perform the longest solo game of dead fish ever! To the untrained eye, I appear completely asleep.

3. I will dedicate my life to the invention of... some kind of forcefield between me and Facebook, the time vampire.

4. My friends would be shocked if they knew... I don't like them. Kidding!

5. The key to success is... give anything a shot. And give it everything you've got. Oh, I didn't mean for that to rhyme. Really.

6. What is your favourite word? Tongue. Because if you try and write it using predictive text, it comes up with vomit. Anything that can change the tone of a message that fast has my vote.

7. What are three ways you're making the world a better place? 1. I'm not going out of my way to destroy things. 2. I try to put people in a good mood. 3. My entire house is made out of supermarket plastic bags.

8. If you were an animal, what animal would you be, and why? Maybe a bear, generally yawning and eating honey, a good hugger and will leave people alone if they play dead.

9. Who would play you in a movie version of your life? Nick Nolte. Not because he looks like me, just because I think he needs the work.

10. What song best describes you? Cecelia, by Simon and Garfunkle, just because of the name, not the lyrics, because it turns out that Cecelia in the song is a bit slutty.

Alison Bice Hits Back

We've heard what Celia thinks, what about Alison?

1. Bananas in pyjamas are... NOT even real bananas. I’ve been doing my research and it turns out Bananas can’t talk. Cats out of the bag, ABC Kids! Rat in a Hat can’t save you now. I’m telling EVERYONE!
2. For the talent portion of the competition, I will... fart to the tune of ‘The Sound of Music’.
3. I will dedicate my life to the invention of... yoghurt that’s NOT 99% fat free.
4. My friends would be shocked if they knew... I am actually the guy who played Captain Von Trapp in the ‘Sound of Music’.
5. The key to success is... to fit as many ‘Sound of Music’ references in to a questionnaire as much as possible.
6. What is your favourite word? “Word”
7. What are three ways you're making the world a better place? I bash the shit out people who don’t follow Stage 3a Water Restrictions. I eat meat so vegetarians don’t have to. I feed my Goat, Barney, plastic shopping bags so they don’t end up in our waterways, choking marine life.
8. If you were an animal, what animal would you be, and why? A harpooned whale. They could make good soap out of me because I wear expensive perfume.
9. Who would play you in a movie version of your life? Jack Nicholson.
10. What song best describes you? ‘Creep’ - Radiohead
