Hero image for Talk Talk - Graham Henry

Talk Talk - Graham Henry

Television (Full Length Episode) – 2010

In this episode from season three of Talk Talk, Finlay Macdonald interviews one of his former teachers, All Blacks coach Graham Henry. Bypassing rugby intricacies like the dark arts of scrummaging, the talk is about Henry's background in education and how it has influenced his coaching career. Filmed prior to World Cup 2011 glory, Henry muses on the pressure to win, dealing with stress, and high public/media expectation. Musical guest Dave Dobbyn performs 'Howling at the Moon' — chosen by Henry because "he sings 'Loyal'" — and explains his relationship with that song.

If you raise the bar high enough, then the show has to jump to meet you. I think we set our standards pretty high in this show.
– Producer Colin Hogg on Talk Talk's visuals, The Dominion Post, 15 January 2008, page 4
