Graeme Gilbert is an Australian host of nightly radio program Talk Tonight With Graeme Gilbert on Sydney station 2SM and the Super Radio Network. In 2002 Gilbert's night time show on 2SM scored a rating of 0.1% in Sydney, the lowest rating ever recorded for a commercial program in a metro market in Australia. 2SM subsequently withdrew from the Sydney radio ratings.
Talk Tonight, however, constantly rates Number One in the Newcastle market.[citation needed]
On 15 May 2006 his program was barraged by prank calls by members of the public, saying that the answer to his trivia question, "Who is the Premier of Tasmania?", is "India". (The correct answer was "Paul Lennon".) A fake Myspace site has been made to encourage people to call in and the story was picked up by ABC Television's Media Watch programme.[1]
