Talkback - Excerpt
Television (Excerpts) – 2021
'Out and proud' right-wing broadcaster Malcolm White (Jason Hoyte from Late Night Big Breakfast) is losing the radio ratings war, which piles pressure on his producer Steve Menzies (played by Talkback's creator Mike Minogue). In this excerpt from episode five, Menzies commiserates with his colleague Gretchen (Ginette McDonald, relishing some juicy lines) who has seen it all before. Left leaning personal assistant Zoe (Olivia Tennet) struggles with the "relaxed" ethics of her shock jock boss, while White enjoys modelling a freebie suit, courtesy of his sponsors.
A colleague of mine has put me in touch with a massage parlour for seniors, just quietly. So I won't starve.– Gretchen (Ginette McDonald) mentions Plan B, in case bad ratings put her out of a job
