The Story So Far: a forty-five-minute documentary on Kate's career to date, compiling videos as well as excerpts from earlier interviews with Kate by Daniel Richler (see number 28) and Christopher Ward (see number 35); and adding a follow-up interview with Kate conducted in 1987 by Laurie Brown at Kate's home in England.
Aired on Canadian TV, summer 1987. (The Laurie Brown interview was also broadcast by itself as a half-hour programme on Canadian TV.)
This interview is one of the best of all video-taped interviews to date. All of Laurie Brown's questions are carefully researched, considered and worded, and Kate's answers, consequently, are frank and very enlightening. The interview was conducted at Kate's own home in England, and there are one or two shots of the back garden and the interior of one room. Kate is clearly in the midst of recording: although the lighting is not flattering, she does appear heavier than she had during the 1985 promotional tour--no doubt a quite temporary condition brought about by the long and sedentary work-schedule. By the time of this writing Kate is probably as lean and fit as ever--in preparation for the Tour of Life II (!).

Good Rockin' Tonight, Much Music, The New Music, Toronto Evening News
Excerpts from interviews (all dating from the same day, in the same Toronto studios) conducted by Christopher Ward, Nan Devitt and Daniel Richler in late November, 1985.
These interviews have a strikingly better atmosphere than their U.S. counterparts, which had been conducted only a day or two before. Much of the credit for this must go to the excellent interviewing techniques of the Canadian hosts, particularly Mr. Ward and Mr. Richler. Both men had prepared well for their interviews and both show evident respect for their guest on camera. Kate responds, consequently, with greater frankness and fluidity than she had in any other interviews of the 1985 promotional campaign.
