The 2010 recipient of the 'Plonker' is Richard Bennett. He was nominated for his performance as Mr. Bascombe in a scene in Carousel, in which he is disarming a knife-wielding Jigger Craigin (Ian Rix). Instead of his actual line 'Drop that knife!', Mr Bascombe is heard to tell Jigger 'Drop that gun!'. Plonker!
