Community television anniversary

To mark the station’s 25th anniversary, former cast and crew members reunited at Souths on Chalmers. Clover Moore MP, the Lord Mayor of Sydney, spoke of the pioneering work of CTV1 and former presenter and producer, Darren Gray, flew over from England especially for the event. Mr Gray now runs a theatrical agency in England which represents Australian actors over there.

Other former CTV1 folk in attendance included 85 year-old Joy Hruby who presents a weekly talk show called Joy’s World on TVS (Television Sydney) and Doug Moody who has turned his hand to writing. He has published 45 plays and novels this year.
