Tractor Monkeys: Oct 30

Guests Adam Zwar, Jean Kittson, Peter Helliar and Sarah Kendall.

1trmkThis week Tractors Monkeys delves in the archives for clips on Leisure and Sport, with guests Adam Zwar, Jean Kittson, Peter Helliar and Sarah Kendall.

Tonight, we celebrate the great Australian priority – that a good time is just as important as good work. Few countries in the world heap so much energy, passion and angst on how we fill up our spare time. And how we spend our leisure says more about who we are than almost anything else.

Adam Zwar tells us about going camping and getting shot at by tobacco farmers. Jean Kitson talks about growing up by the beach and dealing with the surfies. Peter Helliar talks about his formative experiences in caravans, whilst Monty Dimond reveals her time with the carnie folk when as a kid she worked on the ghost train at the Easter Show.

8pm Wednesday ABC1.
