In 1958, George Coppin’s daughter, Lucy Coppin (1873–1960) appeared on Tom Jones’ 3UZ radio show Fifty and Over in which she reflects on her father’s legacy, theatre in Melbourne and growing up in Richmond and Sorrento. This recording has been made available by the late Peter Burgis and his grandson Samuel Antonio.
