| Summary |
Introduced by Caroline JonesThe road to the Prime Ministership was set early in Malcolm Turnbull's life."Trying to meet the expectations that were placed upon his shoulders as a child is a very motivating force in his life" - Lucy Turnbull"I guess Prime Minister probably would have been good enough for [my mother]" - Malcolm TurnbullBut Turnbull's childhood would not be easy. His parents separated when he was nine and he was sent off to boarding school. Driven to succeed, Turnbull would move from journalist to lawyer to merchant banker to corporate high flyer and finally to politician.This week Australian Story revisits the Turnbull family. Malcolm, wife Lucy, daughter Daisy and some of his closest friends speak candidly about his early years, his absent mother and devoted father and the forces that have shaped his rise to power.Drawing on new material and interviews, the program provides a unique insight into a man praised for his intellect and energy but whose temperament and political judgement have been questioned |
