After time as a reporter and radio producer, Judy Callingham became one of the first women in New Zealand to make her mark as a television scriptwriter. Her broadcasting career has encompassed stints as a Fair Go presenter, journalism tutor, and NZ on Air board member. These days she runs a media training company with husband Brian Edwards.
... I suppose we did try to push the envelope a little bit, but it was very gentle pushing. If you look at those early episodes, things that were considered absolutely outrageous in those days — like divorce — now would go past at a 5.30 slot, and no-one would raise a hair.
