JANE TURNER & ANTHONY LAPAGLIA JOIN THE CAST OF RAKE Jane Turner (Kath and Kim co-creator and co-lead) and Anthony LaPaglia (Sunshine, Annabel: Creation) are joining the cast of Rake as cameras roll on the fifth season. William McInnes (Unfinished Sky, Deep Water, Time Of Our Lives, Temora Tornado: The Paleface Adios Story), Helen Thomson (A Place To Call Home, Doctor Doctor, Top Of The Lake: China Girl), Jacek Koman (God’s Blood, Breath, Romulus My Father, Doctor Doctor), Tony Briggs (Cleverman, Seven Types of Ambiguity) and John Gaden (Eye of the Storm, The Death and Life of Otto Bloom) are also joining producer Richard Roxburgh and the established returning ensemble including Kate Box, Matt Day, Adrienne Pickering, Caroline Brazier, Keegan Joyce, Damien Garvey, Sonia Todd and Tasma Walton. Now an independent Senator in a crumbling Federal Parliament, will Cleaver step up to help Australia keep calm and carry on … or add yet more chaos to his life and the lives of those around him? ABC Head of Scripted Production Sally Riley said: “Rake is renowned for attracting the best talent in the business and this year is no exception. I cannot wait to see Jane, Anthony and Tony tear up the screen as they take on the inimitable Cleaver Greene.” Writer and producer Peter Duncan said: “We’ll do our best with this motley crew of acting vagabonds and one-time street thugs. Some of them have potential. Watch this Roxburgh guy. Maybe one day. God bless the ABC for having faith in the criminal class.” With production underway in Sydney, Rake is an Easy Tiger and Blow by Blow production for ABC in association with Create NSW. Season five will air on the ABC in 2018. ENDS For more information, please contact Safia van der Zwan, ABC TV Publicity, [email protected] / 02 8333 3846 .

A trio of Aboriginal girls Based, incredibly, on a true story, and developed from a successful from a remote mission get a stony stage musical, this is a big-hearted, barnstorming put-on-a-show response to their country and western crowdpleaser. Beneath the spangly exterior, however, it has songs at a talentSynopsis show. But Dave, a surprisingly trenchant things to say about Australian identity and drunken Irish talent scout, thinks they have potential. the bitter legacy of institutionalised racism. Seeing them as Australia's answer to 'The Of course, none of this would really hit home unless we believed in Supremes', he recruits their cousin Kay to The Sapphires as authentic soul sisters, achieved thanks to the group, and convinces them to switch to ‘Australian Idol’ finalist Jessica Mauboy’s sumptuous lead vocals, soul songs. Then he gets the girls their and astute song selections from the Motown, Stax and Atlantic first true gig - singing for the troops in the songbooks. middle of the Vietnam war zone... With rising star O’Dowd in command of both the comic timing and emotional grace notes and beautifully playing off Deborah Mailman as the group’s alpha female, the movie is gutsy and entertaining enough to have us forgiving its occasional credibility glitches and obviously CGI-ed battlefront visuals.
