  • Shirley is an avid traveller, and as a single older woman, she does not shy away from 4WD tours in some of the remotest parts of South Australia and Northern Territory. She was out on a tag-about tour and had been feeling good all day but as the sun went down she collapsed by her camp bed and lay on the ground for a number of hours before she was discovered by fellow campers.

  • Dr Katrina Starmer works with our RFDS Queensland team.

    This is not the first time Katrina has been on the Flying Doctor podcast. Look up episode #5 and you will hear about the time Katrina was sent out to pick up a ranger who had been mauled by a crocodile.

    Katrina tells of how she was inspired to become a Flying Doctor, years ago, when she was out mustering on a remote property that belonged to the family of her school friend.

    Katrina is also running a wonderful program called Survive25 which helps teenagers to make wise choices and not end up seeing the Flying Doctor due to misadventures.

  • Had a lovely, relaxed chat with renowned Australian actor, Stephen Peacocke, who plays flight nurse 'Pete Emerson' on the RFDS TV drama. We talk about growing up in regional NSW, mustering cattle by motor-bike on a remote station, becoming an actor, and then his most recent work on set as 'Pete Emerson'.

    The 'RFDS' TV drama is available on demand, on 7Plus after Series 1 and 2 aired on Channel 7. Series 3 is in scripting and will be filmed in 2024 and then coming to screens in Australia and across the world.

    Stephen's credits:

    Peacocke began his on-screen acting career in 2006 when he appeared in a small role in the Australian film Suburban Mayhem. He started appearing on television in 2007, when he played the role of Zeb Hall in the medical drama series All Saints. His other television credits include Packed to the Rafters, Rake and East West 101. He also appeared in the television film Emerald Falls in 2008, which starred Georgie Parker. Peacocke played a role in a parody of Rihanna's "Umbrella" music video called "Drifting in my cappella" with 1BUCK80. Peacocke appears in the 2011 feature film Burning Man, with Matthew Goode and Bojana Novakovic.

    In early 2011, Peacocke received the role of Darryl "Brax" Braxton, a local River Boy, on the Australian soap opera Home and Away.] In 2012, Peacocke won the Logie Award for Most Popular New Male Talent. The following year, he won the Most Popular Actor award. He also received a nomination for the Gold Logie Award for Most Popular Personality on Australian Television.

    Peacocke appears as Nic in Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, an adaptation of Kim Barker's memoir The Taliban Shuffle. He also appears in the adaptation of Me Before You as Nathan, opposite Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin. Peacocke then starred as Detective Josh Levine in the 2016 Australian television series Wanted. He also appeared in the comedy film Cooped Up.

    2019 saw Peacocke star alongside Kat Stewart and Hugh Sheridan in Network Ten's drama series Five Bedrooms, which focuses on five people who buy a house together after meeting at a wedding. The series was renewed for a second season, which began airing in August 2021, after a production delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic. After starring in war film Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan, Peacocke joined the cast of comedy drama Squinters for its second season, and appeared in the drama Les Norton.

    Peacocke starred in the Nine Network miniseries Informer 3838 as Detective Paul Dale, who heads up the Victorian Police drug squad, until he is wrongfully arrested and imprisoned. Peacocke plays flight nurse Pete Emerson in the drama series RFDS: Royal Flying Doctor Service. He carried out his own research to prepare for the role, including talking with people who worked with the Flying Doctor Service and training with a nurse.Peacocke also stars in the ABC drama series The Newsreader, which is set in a 1986 television newsroom. For his performance as sports reporter Rob Rickards, Peacocke earned an AACTA Award nomination for Best Guest or Supporting Actor in a Television Drama.

  • Over the last two years, as part of the Endemolshine Australia team, Ian Meadows has been the writer, co-creator and co-producer of 'RFDS' the TV drama that has been filmed and aired on Channel 7 (and now available on-demand on 7Plus). The 'RFDS' show has been aired to broad audiences across Australia and to some 14 countries overseas.

    Ian has never been personally transported by the RFDS, but as a result of his work he has become intimately involved with our work across the country, so through the TV scripts he can highlight the challenges for those that live, work and travel in rural and remote Australia. He has been instrumental in making sure that the RFDS TV drama is authentic to the Service, genuine in its depiction of staff and patients and communities, and also entertaining.

    Ian Meadows has a long line of credits: Netflix's Clickbait, The Wrong Girl, True Story, Dead Lucky, ABC's 8MMM, The Moodys, A Moody Christmas, Rake, Paper Giants: The Birth of Cleo, the HBO series The Pacific, and the film Killing Ground.

    TV writing credits include RFDS, as well as the SBS series ‘On The Ropes’, Foxtel's ‘Upright, Spirited and Slide’, Channel 10's ‘The Wrong Girl’ as well as ‘Off’Spring, and ABC's ‘The Moodys’.

    Ian adapted and directed ‘Defender’, a segment of Tim Winton's The Turning, which was produced by Robert Connolly and was AACTA nominated for best direction. He co-wrote and acted in the AFI award nominated short ‘Water’, and wrote and directed the Sydney Film Festival selected short film ‘A Parachute Falling in Siberia’ which won an Australian Writers Guild Award and received an AFI award nomination.

    And then of course his play ‘Between Two Waves’ premiered at Griffin Theatre Company in 2012 where Ian was a member of the inaugural Griffin Studio. It was awarded Belvoir Theatre Company's 2013 Phillip Parsons Fellowship.

  • Philip lives in regional Victoria with his seeing-eye dog Sally. A few years ago Philip had to get laser surgery on his only eye that had partial sight, and needed help to get to the hospital and back again, so the Royal Flying Doctor Service patient transport service assisted him.

    This podcast interview is a glimpse into the life of someone who lives independently with a disability (and takes on that challenge with gusto and enthusiasm).

    Philip has been listening to the Flying Doctor podcast and had reached out to me with questions about Flying Doctor planes to find out if seeing-eye dogs are permitted onboard with their owners (they are).

    If you want to learn more about Philip you can see his website at https://latrobemusic.com/.

  • Sarah Ward, a busy working mother, was not feeling great and had increasingly bad stomach pains, but kept putting off getting medical advice as she considered she had just overeaten rich food and needed a lie down and time to recover. She didn't want to use the limited health resources in her remote community, feeling they were needed for other people who were actually unwell -- but not realising she had a ruptured appendix and infection was spreading throughout her body. When this was discovered there was an emergency dash to get Sarah to Cairns for surgery and prevent her from losing her life.

    There is a morale to this story for all mothers out there -- look after yourselves. Don't put off getting medical advice when things aren't right. You can't look after those you love if you are unwell, or are not around anymore. :)
