“My first days at Movietone”

I’m pleased to announce that we have started a series of podcasts entitled, “The Movietone Years”. They cover my time at Movietone from 1st October 1945, until my departure for the adventure of the beginning of Australian television in 1956.

I’m proposing to publish the podcast once a week.

The first episode of “The Movietone Years” is called, “My First Days at Movietone”.
