Martin says his 1996 interview with cricketing great Sir Donald Bradman was ``the trickiest I ever did. I knew I had to get every detail correct,'' Martin said of Bradman's ``impeccable memory''.

Of the more than 10,000 interviews he conducted over his 40 year career, Martin said he had never been more nervous than when he interviewed Bradman.

``I kept pinching myself. I was in the presence of a god, a really wonderful character,'' he told the Advertiser ahead of his visit to Camden Civic Centre next Wednesday, November 11.

The five-time Gold Logie winner will talk about his autobiography Ray: Stories of My Life in which he reveals the turbulence of his early years.
