It was gruelling work and long days but the actor says the biggest hardship was struggling with missing his family, given the out- of-town locations often necessitated overnight stays. That family consists of his wife of nine years, fellow actor Renae Berry, and their three children, Budd, 5, Cilla, 4, and Dillon, who is close to turning one. Corser also has a 14-year-old daughter, Zipporah — or Zippy, as he affectionately refers to her — from a previous relationship with Christine Anu. Corser says that without the support of his wife, who held down the family fort over the five months the series was filmed, there’s no way he would have been able to take on the role. “Renae has to take all the credit because she was the one running around,” he says. “And they’re at that age where my oldest boy is at primary school, my youngest girl is at preschool and my youngest boy is in a pram. “So she’s in and out with car seats and prams and going to different schools. I think my job seems much easier, getting picked up and driven to work then dropped back home or to the hotel and people handing me a latte in the middle of filming. “There’s no doubt about it, I have them for half a day and I’m asking for help. But I’ve got a bit of a break now so I’m trying to do the school drop-offs and pick-ups and so on. And nappy-changing duty, I do that, too.” Still, it’s unlikely Corser will be off work for too long. Even if Doctor Doctor doesn’t receive a season two pick- up, he has rarely had a break from work since his debut role in a 1998 stage production of the musical Rent. Back then, Corser had no plans to act. Instead, he was working as a jobbing musician, playing in several local bands. He’d also recently completed a degree in media studies at Deakin University. “I wanted to work behind the camera, which is why I did the degree,” he says. “I’d done a minor subject in drama in my media studies course but that was one first-year semester and that was it. “I went to an open audition for Rent and that was my first gig,” he says, neglecting to mention he beat out more than 6000 other people for the role of HIV-positive musician Roger. “That’s how it all happened for me. You get an agent after that because you’ve already got a role and then they send you to castings.” Rent was a smash hit, touring both Melbourne and Sydney. Not only did it receive incredible reviews, it also saw his onstage pairing with the woman playing erotic dancer Mimi, Christine Anu, become a real-life one. The couple were tabloid darlings at the time with both actors seeing their careers soar. Their romance lasted more than six years and produced a daughter who appears to have he’s done everything in his power to avoid, returning to (da Silva plays Knight’s inherited her parents’ work as a lowly GP as he whiles out his suspension. former high school artistic talent.

From her movies High Tide, The Big Steal and The Heartbreak Kid, to her Froles in some of the country’s most successful television series, including The Secret Life of Us, Love My Way and The Time of Our Lives, her characters’ lives have mirrored ours across the years. The fact that she has largely remained in Australia throughout her career makes this particularly the case. Claudia is the mother of two children, Audrey and Albee, with environmental engineer Jeremy Sparks, and stepmother to his daughter, Holiday. As a child, Claudia’s mother and stepfather ran the ultra-cool, bohemian nightclub Arthur’s, in Kings Cross, and the family lived in a part of Sydney considered so dubious that her school declared it permanently ‘out of bounds’.

The Doctor Doctor series is now in its third season and has become popular with Australian, and overseas, audiences.

We have lunch at Camden Park House, the country mansion of John & Elizabeth Macarthur. The property possesses a grand colonnade verandah and is home to Australia's oldest oak tree grown from an acorn given to John Macarthur at Buckingham Palace!

  • Marriageability and Indigenous Representation in the White Mainstream Media in Australia
    Marriageability and Indigenous Representation in the White Mainstream Media in Australia PhD Thesis 2007 Andrew King BA (Hons) Supervisor: Associate Professor Alan McKee Creative Industries, Queensland University of Technology Abstract By means of a historical analysis of representations, this thesis argues that an increasing sexualisation of Indigenous personalities in popular culture contributes to the reconciliation of non-Indigenous and Indigenous Australia. It considers how sexualised images and narratives of Indigenous people, as they are produced across a range of film, television, advertising, sport and pornographic texts, are connected to a broader politics of liberty and justice in the present postmodern and postcolonial context. By addressing this objective the thesis will identify and evaluate the significance of ‘banal’ or everyday representations of Aboriginal sexuality, which may range from advertising images of kissing, television soap episodes of weddings, sultry film romances through to more evocatively oiled-up representations of the pin- up-calendar variety. This project seeks to explore how such images offer possibilities for creating informal narratives of reconciliation, and engendering understandings of Aboriginality in the media beyond predominant academic concerns for exceptional or fatalistic versions. i Keywords Aboriginality Indigenous Marriageability Reconciliation Popular Culture Sexuality Relationships Interracial Public Sphere Mediasphere Celebrity ii Table of Contents Introduction ………………………………………………………………………….
