Garry McDonald AO, actor

Hold onto your hats as National Living Treasure Garry McDonald AO joins Savva Savas for PLATED: Three food memories. The actor shares a range of food anecdotes (way more than the brief), including his deep love for Chinese food, restaurant memories across Asia, pulling Norman Gunston out of a bag when necessary, plus his long appreciation for the shared experience of food and family. 

Garry talks candidly about his mental breakdown, involvement with Beyond Blue and his ongoing concern about the servicemen and women who experience Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). 

The current state of television in Australia, plus Garry's review of the ABC series Fires and The Newsreader is also covered.
