Throughout 2016 Palatine Productions were thrilled to work on the exciting new Nine Entertainment Co. series, “This Time next Year”.
Ian Withnall was chosen to be the Brisbane based Shooter/Producer to cover the long running narrative lines in a broad array of extraordinary and uniquely personal stories.
Some of the stories Ian covered were Tiffany Cameron, who will pull a plane. Mel Goh who wants to be a stunt woman. Lachie Smart, who pledges to be the youngest pilot to fly solo around the world. Bede Durbidge who pledges to return to Professional Surfing. Sharon Boulton, who wants to get a drivers license in her 40s. Ned Heaton, who will enter a painting in the Young Archie Competition, Para Olympian Bill Chaffey who pledges to win a Gold Medal at the Rio Olympics, and Country singer Adam Brand who needs to conquer his fear of horses.
Tracey Patrick makes her pledge in the TTNY Studio.
The most significant and heartfelt story that Ian produced was the Tracey Patrick story. Tracey and her family are facing the most difficult journey, fighting a terminal diagnosis. The Patricks allowed Ian intimate access to their lives on many occasions to film Tracey’s pledge to make their way through a bucket list.
Ian was present through some very difficult times for the Patricks, filming while Tracey was getting scans and receiving results from her Oncologist. There were also moments of intense warmth and celebration like the dancing lesson, possibly one of the most romantic sequences Ian has every produced.

With contributors in Brisbane, the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast being periodically filmed, Associate Producer Sharen Kenny also worked behind the scenes assisting the great team at Nine in coordinating locations, travel and data transport.
Additionally we provided our extensive broadcast spec camera equipment and facilities which meant Palatine Productions were fully engaged in the project.
“This Time Next Year” is a heartfelt, positive and inspiring show.
