Legendary Australian actor Paul Hogan has filmed his first live comedy roast for Channel Seven. 

The LA-based star, 82, recently arrived in Melbourne to film a one-night-only comedy special hosted by his longtime pal Shane Jacobson.  

reports The Roast Of Paul Hogan was filmed in front of a packed audience at Melbourne's Crown Casino last week. 

The special featured a dozen of Australia's funniest comedians and performers taking the mickey out of the Crocodile Dundee star.  

According to the publication, celebrity roasters appearing on the special included: John Paul Young, John Blackman, Steve Vizard, Stephen Curry, Dave Lawson, Hung Le and Troy Kinne. 

Paul previously said that nothing was off limits when it came to the insults that would be thrown at him during the roast.  

'The first thing I do when I step off the plane is an open palm slap across the face to Shane because I know all the things he's going to have a crack at me for,' he told ahead of his arrival in Australia earlier this month.  

The comment appeared to reference the controversial moment Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars. 

Hogan did however say that his event at Melbourne's Crown Casino will have 'no malice and [is] not grubby', in comparison to Smith's Academy Awards theatrics. 

It comes after Hogan revealed he was planning to relocate back to Australia after many years abroad.

'I'm surviving. I'm homesick, but I'll be back. Looking forward to the end of this stupid disease,' he said speaking to the Today show.
