John Campbell says he’s looking forward to his fourth stint at RNZ, as he prepares to join Ingrid Hipkiss on Morning Report next week.
Campbell, who describes RNZ as “the soundtrack of my childhood”, says he’s grateful for the two‑year cadetship he received at the broadcaster in 1989 – when he was making the switch from shouting out to ‘chalkies’ on the trading floor to reading the news bulletin, and eventually fronting Checkpoint for two years.
“And then suddenly you get an opportunity to front Morning Report. Of course you want to do it," Campbell told Afternoons.
