In this episode of From Set To Sofa with Lulu, Lulu welcomes a very special guest and a dear longtime friend, Tim Page. They first met on the set of The Young Doctors back in 1977, right in the middle of the show’s peak. Tim went on to become a true household name as Dr. Graham Steele, a regular from 1976 to 1982. So what does it feel like to be recognised everywhere, years before social media and PR teams smoothed the edges? Did strangers assume he was the doctor in real life? Did fans cross lines, follow him, or demand medical advice because they believed “Dr. Steele” was real?

And then comes the part most people do not know. Tim is not just an actor. He is a multi-talented performer with a career that moved far beyond Aussie television. He wrote television scripts for The Young Doctors, The Restless Years and Neighbours. He toured, he sang, he directed, and he built a reputation in musical theatre that took him overseas. Highlights include two years in London in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Aspects of Love, and a year in The Buddy Holly Musical. Lulu also revisits the unforgettable concert nights Tim created with his partner, Allan Royal, and the musical world he helped shape through teaching at the Central Coast Conservatorium of Music.

Expect backstage stories, career turning points, the tough moments actors rarely admit to, and the advice Tim would give anyone dreaming of the stage or screen. Plus, there is a twist that still surprises people.

If you love classic Aussie TV nostalgia, this episode delivers the fame, the fallout, the secrets, and the talent that made Tim Page unforgettable.
