Tim Fisher lives!

After costing taxpayers about $1 million a year to establish the first resident Australian ambassador to the Holy See, His Excellency Timmeh Fisher is almost but not quite earning his keep.
What's on the Tube tells us that; "Former deputy Prime Minister and now Australia's ambassador to the Vatican Tim Fisher said that charges have be[en] laid against the two members of the Chaser team on April 28 for breaching the no-fly zone regulations. Mr Fisher confirmed that they were detained by Italian authorities and questioned for eight hours before being released. Morrow today said on ABC radio, "I'm not sure whether charges have been laid yet but we certainly did spend a fair bit of time chewing the fat with the Italian constabulary"."
Apart from turning up at an English language Italian mass for bushfire victims in February, this is the first time I've heard a peep out of the ambassador since his appointment took effect at the beginning of this year.

Update:
Apparently Timmeh is not too good with spoken Italian, because ABC News says "On Friday, Australia's resident ambassador to the Vatican, Tim Fischer, incorrectly said charges had been laid." and The Chaser team say "We've since heard from Tim Fischer that we've been charged, but from an Italian lawyer that we haven't. We're backing the lawyer".
