While working in Tasmania for the Rural Department, One of our commitments was a 15 minute radio documentary each Friday.
Normally interviews mixed with voice-overs and actuality, their production was sometimes the last thing anyone wanted to do on a Friday, but at a time of 2 to 5 minute interviews I found it a pleasure to have a time frame to get my teeth into.
This particular Friday Journal came about when I met Warren Purton, a Northern Tasmanian farmer who was still using draught horses to do some of the jobs more recently managed by tractors.
Talent: Warren Purton
To air: Friday Journal, 23 May 1984, duration: 14:03
