Hi Peter, I have no idea if I can be helped with this enquiry but I was twice on Junior Spotlight with my best friend in 1971 and I would dearly love to have the footage of those episodes. We did not have a video recorder to record the show (I don’t think they were even available then??) but I remember we won a watch which we shared between us as the prize was one watch for the winner! We came back for the quarter final or semi final – I can’t remember which – and we lost, so that was the end of our brilliant career! Anyway, two black & white episodes of ourselves as 11 year olds doing ballet on tv is something I would love to have copies of – but is it possible? Thank you for taking the time to respond at your convenience and apologies if this is a complicated request. Kind regards, Caroline

Hi, I was listening to the Steve Gordon talk show, on Sunday night. You discussed your thesis, on the Aboriginal of Pinjarra, is it possible to
read your thesis on the internet, or is it available else where.
Thank you
Neville.

Hi Peter,

I’ve meant to contact you over the years after meeting your son Jamie at Zenith’s. Myself and Glenn Ryan remember you fondly from our appearances on the CH9ers Club as 12yo child ventriloquists. We were invited on the show by Ron Blaskett as a one-off which then became a regular CH9ers Club slot for Glenn and myself for a long time. Myself and Paul Howson later did a regular marionette segment on the show – “Bobo & Boss”. I remember you as being very warm, encouraging, and a great entertainer for kids; the CH9ers Club was very popular due to the warmth and fun of the whole team.

Congrats on your PhD too!

Regards,

This is a VERY belated thank you, Dr. Harries, for your travel to Vietnam to entertain the AAATV and US military. I had the pleasure of enjoying your music, along with Michelle Edwards, Kelly Green, and Shirely Read, when you performed for the ANZAC Day observance and celebration in Da Nang in 1968. Many, many thanks for a bit of respite during some pretty harrowing times.
