About this episode

George Shevtsov discusses his role in the classic Australian film Love Serenade on its 30th anniversary.

George Shevtsov is an acclaimed Australian television, film and theatre actor best known for roles like the History Man in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga and as radio DJ Ken Sherry in Love Serenade. The latter is one of Sarah and Kevin's all-time favourite Aussie films and it is a treat to chat to George about this classic movie on its 30th anniversary. The Ken Sherry character has been variously described as a brooding, self centured, yet charismatic big city radio announcer who somehow finds himself working on a little station in a Victorian country town. The classic 'big fish, little pond' scenario. George shares his memories of the film he describes as an Australian masterpiece - and a whole lot more.      The star of the Food Poll this episode are those salty little critters we know as capers. Which side of the fence do you sit on? Is it a yay or a nay?        Presented by Sarah Patterson & Kevin Hillier Broadcast each Sunday on the ACE Radio Network - https://aceradio.com.au/ Catch us also on: Radio 2DD - Easy Listening - On Line - https://www.2dd.online/ Follow us on Facebook... https://www.facebook.com/foodbyteswithsarahpatterson/ Twitter…
