ScreenTalk Short: Dougal Stevenson

Dougal Stevenson began on television as a continuity announcer, then became one of New Zealand's most respected news anchors. In this ScreenTalk Short, Stevenson talks about feeling straightjacketed as a continuity announcer, and far more comfortable after he first tried newsreading; plus needing to be careful about correct pronunciation, leaving vehicles worse for wear on The Motor Show, and his regrets about occasionally letting the side down.
