- Description
A television producer comments that a fictitious medical celebrity, 'Dolly', is devastated in that her 'pestilence report' has been dropped - 'it spooked the audience' - and that it has been replaced with 'exclusive Aaron Gilmore interviews'. Even a gift of Aaron's old tee shirt has not cheered her. The lettering on the tee shirt reads 'Do you know who I was'.
Commenting on the ephemeral nature of celebrity and the self-regarding culture of the television industry, the cartoonist draws a parallel with that of ephemeral light weights, such as Aaron Gilmore, in politics.
