I have attached a pdf of my problem and attempted solution. I seem to be a factor of f'(z) out from the required solution, can anyone see where I've gone wrong?

Yes, shouldn't the expression you are taking the limit of to get the residue be (t-z)*t*f'(t)/(f(t)-w)?
 
Ahh yeah crap, I was thinking f(t)-w would cancel as usual when taking a residue of a simple pole but it's f(t) not t. Cheers.
