Celebrity Gardeners - Ben Elton and Tottie Goldsmith

People & Places

Don visited cousins Ben Elton and Tottie Goldsmith at Tottie’s Melbourne home. Ben is in Australia at the moment taking his smash musical ‘We Will Rock You’ to the international stage. It features the brilliance of Elton’s writing talents and the music of Queen. It is set 300 years into the future when live music is banned and kids rebel against mass produced ‘pop’ music.

Tottie Goldsmith was the host of the controversial television series ‘Sex Life’, one of the stars of ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and is now working behind the scenes on a movie. Don was surprised to see a standard grafted Grevillea banksii thriving in a warm spot in her garden. This plant even struggles in Sydney!

Further information

‘We Will Rock You’ is now showing at Melbourne’s Regent Theatre. Book through Ticketek, phone (03) 9299 9011.
