ANDY LEE: Fatherhood, fiction & his fiancée

Andy Lee is the epitome of a modern Aussie larrikin. Even though he's cool, worldly and poised to marry an oh-so-chic lifestyle entrepreneur, when the 44-year-old opens his mouth, he has everyone in stitches.

His signature sense of humour has spilled from the radio airwaves and TV into children’s books – the bestselling Do Not Open This Book series – and now back onto the box again with that beloved series getting its own TV adaptation, Do Not Watch This Show. Arriving on the ABC this week, the animation features the chaotic and emotionally fragile blue monster Wizz, and his pal Douglas, who, Lee explains, is “matter-of-fact, to the point and almost emotionless”. He voices both of them.

Given his success in the kids’ genre, it’s only natural to presume Lee must have fatherhood on his mind. “Of course,” he tells WHO days before jetting off to New York with fiancée Rebecca Harding, 35, to check in on another new venture, their Aussie pub, Old Mates, in Lower Manhattan.
