THIS IS THE FINAL EPISODE OF SEASON 1.Whoah! It seems I achieved something that the great television interviewer and self-confessed cricket nut Sir Michael Parkinson longed for, but never managed – to not just meet, but to interview the legendary, world-beating cricketer, Sir Donald Bradman.It was said that Don Bradman was ‘elusive'. Like a lyrebird in the bush, perhaps? But there was the great Don, graciously opening his office door to me, welcoming me in, and cheerfully sharing so many stories from his illustrious sporting life.This was in about 1972, when Sir Donald was a stockbroker batting share prices rather than a cricket ball, having played his final Test game against England 24 years earlier. In that match the great man was just four runs short of a 7,000-run career, but was sent walking with a duck.With a what? In this episode of Red Dust Tapes I offer a brief introduction to this weirdest of games, that in it's ‘first class' form can keep going for six hours a day for three, four, and in present times,  five days.But we're really here for the anecdotes and musings of the man many regard not just as the greatest cricketer of all time, but possibly the greatest sportsperson.Sir Donald was a delight to sit with, freely sharing on career highlights, the lows of the dangerous bodyline era, and tales of other legendary cricket characters.So no, this edition of Red Dust Tapes is not about the Outback. And yes, it is all about cricket. But offered to you in a way that I hope you will enjoy regardless of your interest in sport. By the way it's also the end of the first season of Red Dust Tapes. I guarantee you'll be delighted with the content and variety of the next season, when we spend time with cattlemen, railway workers, isolated Aboriginal people, prospectors, paddlesteamer captains; when we hear more anecdotes from our first airmen, and meet assorted Outback loners. All of these  characters were born towards the end of the 19th century or early in the 20th, so all are long, long gone.My interviews are Australian oral history you won't hear anywhere else.To stay informed, and to be alerted when the new season starts, please subscribe, at www.reddusttapes.au

Darkness falls across the land, the drinking hour is close at hand; to tear apart your very soul, and delve into The Glory Hole! Yes as dusk strikes on the year, The Peggy Mount Calamity Hour turns its attention to a truly seminal piece of vintage television that's sure to put the willies up anybody... Under the spooktroscope this Samhain is BBC1's legendary Ghostwatch, the 1992 pseudo-documentary fronted by Sir Michael Parkinson which exceeded its remit in terms of terrifying viewers and ultimately bequeathed a televisual legacy far greater than anyone had really intended. But cynicism is the enemy of awe as aeons pass, and there's no greater battle for emotional sincerity than the one playing in the viewing suite of MountPeg Towers this stormy evening. How big is the cupboard under the stairs in a two-bedroom semi in suburban west-London? How come that person looks like them out of that thing that you can't quite place? And how come the Beeb got around Equity stipulations by employing people who clearly weren't actors? Move the glass over PLAY and find out...

On a daily basis, Richard Arnold is welcomed into people's homes across the UK when he brings the entertainment and showbiz news to ITV's Good Morning Britain. He's been providing the lighter side to British breakfast television for more than twenty years with his great warmth, and of course his humour. On this ITV Pridecast, he chats to Liam McConkey about his career during the last two decades and shares some of the incredible stories about the people he's met along the way. Richard first became a household name on our screens in 1997 on GMTV, when at around 07:50 each morning he would present ‘Pick of the Day'- a rundown of some of the best things on TV that evening. That regular feature saw him referred to as the ‘ten-to-eight boy', and for many people he became part of the fixtures and fittings of their daily routines. Richard continues to play that role now on Good Morning Britain as the show's Entertainment Editor and has done so for almost a decade. During his time reporting on entertainment news he's not only critiqued an array of television programmes, he's also interviewed some of the most famous people on the planet. From stars of the “small screen” to those in Hollywood, Richard has chatted with, as well as learnt from, some of the best in showbusiness. During this episode he shares stories of having his lip-wiped by the one and only Barbra Striesand, to receiving great praise from the late Sir Michael Parkinson on his interview technique and style. In the years Richard has been reviewing TV and films, he says he's also seen how the nature of dramas have changed and this is certainly so when there's an LGBTQ+ storyline involved. As a gay man himself, he says there's been a significant shift in the response from audiences towards LGBTQ+ characters. He recalls the tabloid outrage when Colin famously kissed Barry with a peck on the forehead in the 1987 episode of Eastenders, which made history as the first ever gay kiss in a UK soap opera. Fast-forward to today, and Richard says TV and film is leading the way in producing LGBTQ+ content for so many audiences to watch and love, which is making a big difference in people's lives. You can watch Richard on weekday mornings on Good Morning Britain on ITV1.

So last week we lost Sir Michael Parkinson, the great interviewer. His son interviewed in the weekend saying his father was proud of his working-class roots but hated politics. While he hated politics but loved policy. He thought most of politics was just an act, but policies are actions.  I thought about that watching the corny play that was acted out over the weekend. Hipkins ruled out Peters even though Peters had ruled out Hipkins ages ago. Then Dunne says great politics and that it snookers Luxon, but Luxon comes back and says he's not thinking about Peters at all.  Honestly. So much hot air over almost nothing.  Then Chippy calls National, ACT, New Zealand First a coalition of cuts, chaos, and confusion.  Virtually the same thing that Luxon has been saying all year. Could you be any more insipid?  I said last week that I fail to comprehend what Chris Hipkins actually stands for anymore, and there's more proof.  Then we have Paul Henry in the paper on Sunday. John Key's bestie and former National party candidate.  He's seen no evidence that if a new government is elected in October, things will “dramatically” change.  He says National are paralysed with the fear of dramatically committing themselves to anything and that Luxon is too obsessed with not screwing things up, and not screwing things up is not success.  And he's right. National's policy planks seem to be just removing anything Labour has done and throwing tax cuts at the cost of living which is like using gasoline to put out a fire.  There's a lack of a vision thing in our major parties, and when they do have a vision then they fail to realise it.  The National Party's policy on cancer drug funding last week was the closest to vision we've had from them in years, but they didn't sell it very well.  It's a return to Bill English's social investment philosophy. Using the Community Card to target help those who really need it rather than splashing cash around universally on prescriptions for everyone including the rich.  At the moment all the politicians in all the parties seem either misguided, .  It's time the politicians figure out what they stand for. Stop complaining that New Zealand's lost its mojo and ambition and get some yourself. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sir Michael Parkinson was a prominent British journalist and broadcaster. He was a white man who held high profile roles, yet experienced imposter syndrome throughout his career. Having coached senior leaders, executives, members of the judiciary, and many others to overcome imposter syndrome, it is something I see time and time again amongst senior leaders. If you experience it, in this episode I unpick imposter syndrome to help loosen its hold over you.

Hilary Barry and comedian extraordinaire Tom Sainsbury are going head to head in a new reboot of popular charades game show Give Us a Clue.While Barry and Sainsbury will captain opposing teams they will be at the mercy of Paula Bennett, who will put the celebrity players through their paces as host and resident queen of clues.Give Us a Clue sees women versus men in a battle of charades as New Zealand's favourite celebrities attempt to mime out the titles for movies, TV shows, songs, books, plays and quotations, all before the clock runs out."This show is going to be fast-paced chaotic fun that I am somehow going to try and control," says Paula Bennett. "I envisage the biggest challenge for Tom and Hilary will be not being allowed to talk!"Hilary Barry adds: "It was watching the British version of Give Us a Clue when I was a child that really inspired my love of charades and also my love of Sir Michael Parkinson. So, when I was asked to be involved in a local version I jumped at the chance. I love that we're sticking with the original format having the men pitted against the women. Tom Sainsbury should be prepared for a tough battle and some formidable opponents!"Two teams of four celebrities will go head-to-head in the competition, with each mime testing the acting skills and imagination of our famous faces. The inevitable charade-fail calamities will have viewers shouting at their screens and laughing out loud in equal measure as they play along at home."I'm so bloody excited about being part of Give Us a Glue," enthuses Tom. "I was hoping I could sweet talk Paula into giving me and my team the upper hand, but apparently, she's going to be annoyingly fair. Hilary has told me on multiple occasions that she's very competitive, but she hasn't played a game against the likes of me, so I'm predicting a high-stakes, passionate TV show."The celebrity contestants who will be joining Barry and Sainsbury have yet to be revealed.Give Us a Clue will screen on TVNZ 1 this winter.
