Tuesday night is the final episode of Annabel Crabb's Kitchen Cabinet with lunch guest Labor Senator Doug Cameron.

cabkiTuesday night is the final episode of Annabel Crabb’s Kitchen Cabinet with lunch guest Labor Senator Doug Cameron.

This is the only episode that premieres during the election campaign itself, although ABC2’s Shitsville Express, also tomorrow night, is more ironic given it features the PM, filmed before the toppling of Gillard.

In the aftermath of the Labor leadership change, Annabel heads to the Blue Mountains in NSW to check the pulse of the Labor party with candid Senator Doug Cameron. This former trade union boss, and keen ally of Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, is not a comfortable cook. Born and raised in Scotland, the possibility of Doug serving a national dish that involved offal or deep frying was high, but Annabel is pleasantly surprised, and Doug is overjoyed, when he rustles up a tasty lunch of barramundi, mash and veges. Over lunch Doug talks openly about why he hasn’t touched alcohol in over 20 years and how he dealt with violent threats levelled at him during his time leading the Australian Manufacturing Workers’ Union.

Tuesday 6 August at 8pm on ABC1
