SERIES PREMIERE - Seven West Media

BRIAN GROSS
Brian Gross is happiest
when he’s watching
and listening to his
noisy family - and
doesn’t often feel the
need to add to the
cacophony.
He likes to follow current affairs, read his
newspaper, do his crossword, and generally
leave the fussing and rulemaking to his wife,
Trish. His professional life as a manager
for State Rail satisfies his quiet, patient
personality.
For him, family life is beautiful. “He’s a very
nice man. They’re quite a traditional family.
He had a hard upbringing so he’s very grateful
to be where he is. He loves his family. He
loves his life. He’s just a happy, content,
man. He’s a good father,” says Francis of his
character.
His own mother died when he was young and
Brian felt a great appreciation for his father’s
love and effort during his childhood. He
believes a good work ethic is important and
he takes pride in providing for his family and
making a comfortable home to raise them in.
Trish might not be everyone’s cup of tea -
loud, funny and always one with an opinion
- but to Brian she’s everything. They met at a
local pub while Brian was visiting his cousin in
Renwood. Trish was the publican’s daughter
and she was helping her father raffle off the
meat tray. He won the meat tray that night...
and a whole lot more.
