Script writer and script editor.

Graeme Farmer has worked in television since at least the late 1970s, when he was script editor on New Zealand children's adventure series Children of Fire Mountain (1979). By the following year, he was working in Australia, as script editor for the second (and final) series of Young Ramsay. The following year, his first scripts for Australian television were produced for Holiday Island (1981). For the rest of the 1980s, Farmer wrote scripts for the telemovies Glass Babies (1985) and Darlings of the Gods (1989), as well as episodes of such programs as Golden Pennies (1985), Prime Time (1986), House Rules (1988), Dusty (1988), and Inside Running (1989).

In 1990, he contributed episodes to the series Skirts and The New Adventures of Black Beauty. He followed this in 1993 with three telemovies under the umbrella title The Feds: The Feds: Terror (co-written with Ian McFadyen, directed by Donald Crombie), The Feds: Deception (co-written with John Reeves, directed by George Ogilvie), and The Feds: Abduction (co-written with Vincent Moran and directed by Michael Pattinson).

In the same year in which he co-wrote The Feds telemovies, Farmer was also script-editor on sit-com Newlyweds (created by Ian McFadyen, and written by him, Farmer, and Mary-Anne Fahey).

Farmer's other work in the 1990s includes episodes of Halfway Across the Galaxy and Turn Left (1993-1994), on which he was also script editor, the telemovie The Last of the Ryans (1997), and Australian-French co-production The Violent Earth (1998). He was also story editor for State Coroner in 1997.

Since 2000, Farmer has contributed scripts to The Saddle Club (2001-2009), for which he has written at least fifteen episodes, as well as working as story editor and script editor; Silversun (2004), for which he wrote nearly a quarter of the forty episodes, as well as working as story editor; K9 (2009); Neighbours (2009-present); and Flea-bitten!
