The current Governor, Paul de Jersey, was sworn in on 29 July 2014.
As from June 2014, The Queen, upon the recommendation of then-Premier Campbell Newman, accorded all current, future and living former Governors the title 'The Honourable' in perpetuity.
Official residence
The Governor of Queensland has resided at Government House, Brisbane since 1910. The mansion, set in 14 hectares of gardens and bushland in the Brisbane suburb of Bardon, is also known as "Fernberg". Unlike Fernberg, the original Government House was purpose-built and was used from 1862 to 1910; the building still exists today on the grounds of Queensland University of Technology.
Queensland (abbreviated as Qld) is the second-largest and third-most-populous state in Australia. Situated in the north-east of the country, it is bordered by the Northern Territory, South Australia and New South Wales to the west, south-west and south respectively. To the east, Queensland is bordered by the Coral Sea and Pacific Ocean. Queensland has a population of 4,750,500, concentrated along the coast and particularly in the state's South East. The state is the world's sixth largest sub-national entity, with an area of 1,852,642km2. The capital and largest city in the state is Brisbane, Australia's third largest city. Often referred to as the "Sunshine State", Queensland is home to 10 of Australia's 30 largest cities and is the nation's third largest economy.
Doug is a factory worker living in Melbourne who dreams of moving from Melbourne to Queensland. He attempts to reconnect with an old flame, Marge, and move to Queensland together.
John Ruane says he was inspired by a newspaper article about a slaughter man who killed his de facto wife and then got drunk for two days. He decided to remove the killing aspect, concentrate on the relationship. Ruane:
The film was made with money from the Experimental Film and Television Fund while John Ruane was a film student at the Swinburne College of Technology in Melbourne.
Release
The movie was released through the co-operative movement.

We invite you to listen to the first part of their conversation, which touches on the wonders and importance of the Ekka.
Her Excellency the Governor of Queensland is Patron of the Royal National Agricultural and Industrial Association of Queensland, a not for profit member-based association that runs the Ekka on behalf of the community each year. However, by tradition, our State and Commonwealth Vice-Regal representatives take turns opening the much-loved show, which draws 400,000 visitors on average each year.
The Governor-General, during her time at the show, met with Queensland primary producers, exhibitors, competitors and visitors, and spent time with the finalists and winners of the Queensland Country Life Showgirls. She rightly made the point that our Ekka is "legendary" and a "cherished" part of Queensland's history and identity.
