THE CASTLE FEUD ERUPTS!

As fans lashed out, the film's hero was forced to weigh in

Veteran star Michael Caton has a simple comeback to claims that his hit movie The Castle helped spawn Australia's current housing crisis. "Tell 'em they're dreaming!" he says. But his irate wife Helen is even more hilariously outspoken when it comes to the accusations from critics.

"That's f**ked," she exclaimed during a live Zoom television interview about the online controversy.

Her four-letter bombshell - delivered loud and clear in the background of Michael's onscreen interview - left Today co-hosts Sarah Abo and Karl Stefanovic laughing helplessly, although Michael was visibly shocked by his partner's rather candid response.
