Today on the podcast I have executive producers 'Angie Fielder' and 'Polly Staniford' who are known for their outstanding work at 'Aquarius Films,' which has a brand new scripted drama 'Savage River' now screening on the 'ABC Australia.'

If you missed the episode one last Sunday - do yourself a favour and catch up on ABC iview as the second episode will debuts this Sunday night.

The series set in country Victoria, is director by 'Jocelyn Moorhouse' and stars 'Katherine Langford,' 'Virginia Gay,' 'Jacqueline McKenzie' and many other fantastic Australian actors. 

The story follows 'Knives Out' actress 'Katherine Langford’s' 'Miki Anderson' who returns to her hometown in rural 'Victoria' after eight years in prison, intending to get on with her life. However a murder is committed in the town, and the townspeople suspect her, and she sets out to prove her innocence.

The story is more than a who done it! With complex characters of a small town characters we really care about. So today will get some interesting insights into how this show was made, why 'Warburton' was used for the fictitious small town of 'Savage River' and how two Aussie content creators saw the promise of two writers from 'Tasmania.'
