Like most Gen Z-millennial cusp Australians, I grew up watching The Wiggles. Ever since I’ve had a very soft spot in my heart for the four smiley blokes who sang about hot potatoes, big red cars and of course, getting wiggly. But recently, thanks to the release of their documentary Hot Potato: The Story Of The Wiggles on Amazon Prime, I’ve realised something that only adult eyes can truly see – they were hot.
I’m not talking about John Pearce, the purple Wiggle who used to be in Justice Crew that all the yummy mummies are drooling over on TikTok.
I’m talking about the OG wiggles – Greg Page, Jeff Fatt, Anthony Field and Murray Cook.
