The Australian TV personality, who currently hosts ABC’s Hard Quiz, generated many laughs as the celebrity host of a games afternoon at Imlay House Aged Care Service in Pambula.
Despite his many years of dealing with hecklers, Mr Gleeson said the residents at Imlay House really kept him on his toes.
“People when they get older they shoot from the hip so if they don’t like something they tell you,” he said.
Mr Gleeson was visiting father, a resident at Imlay House, when Diversional Therapist Sheridan Leftwich invited him to run the game.
He said he would like to do it again some time.
