Andrew Denton to visit New Zealand

28 May 2016 8:50 AM | Philip Patston (Administrator)

Andrew Denton, the TV producer and presenter who has spent the past 12 months making a 17-episode podcast about the right to die with dignity, will be in New Zealand in June.

"I wanted to inform the debate and I wanted to inflame the debate," he says of the podcast. "I want politicians and doctors to stop sitting on their hands while people needlessly suffer."

His interest in the topic was sparked by the awful experience of watching his father, author and broadcaster Kit Denton, die slowly and painfully.

Please try to see and hear Andrew Denton in one of these areas in June – Wellington, Christchurch and Napier.

He will also be on TV and Radio – The Nation, Q&A and interviewed by Wallace Chapman, Rebecca Macfee and others.
