I notice the word ‘nice’ being used to sum up the doctor dude. That’s about it – ‘nice’. But the personality of a stunned mullet.
Great, if he is not dribbling us facts on the 7pm project his selling us life insurance now we have to put up with for breakfast. keep to being a doctor mate. so over ya.
@catherine, Andrew is not presently practising as a doctor, so he is not having to rush off to do shifts at any hospital.
This maybe a stupid comment but isnt Andrew’s job a doctor. I like it when he is on the 7pm project. I know he does radio so when does he find time to do shifts at the hospital.
In todays world where we are crying out for decent doctors we have one who does radio and now maybe doing breakfast tv instead. Or has he said he wants to take a break and get a tv career.
@ Steve Sydney,
Just because more Melburnians watch TV doesn’t mean that Melbourne is the most important market. Check out Encore mags website which shows the latest network & cities ad revenue for 2011. You may be surprised.
They are going to drop the morning cartoons for this.Will be a sad day at 10 if and when the axe falls on that.They were the only channel at the start of the day 6 to 9am not to show us a news/chat show
Not inspired by anybody mentioned here. They have to be stand outs and different to the 7 and 9 alternative. Possibly aiming at a younger audience. Think Charlie Pickering would be excellent. Sandra sully is a wasted talent so late at night and has been for years. She need to be seen at a more important time for the network. Maybe breakfast then.
@ducko
I hear what your saying however I meant Melb viewers (whom watch the most telly) are very quick to watch a show produced in their city. There are days when half the audience for the The Circle come from Melbourne alone.
Just look at The Block.. same formula. That’s what I meant..
Bleh, *More* breakfast TV?
Who is going to watch this?, certainly not me.
Andrew Rochford, please do not take on anything else – you are over exposing yourself. So much so that I grab the remote when I see you coming on, whether it be a commercial or tv show. Stick with your radio job mate.
I wonder how Sarah Murdoch became a contender?
I bet Gina Rinehart is pushing for Andrew Bolt and Amanda Vanstone to host the breakfast show , with Alan Jones presenting the sports section.
I thought Kath Robinson and Brad McEwan worked well together on Good Morning Delhi last year.
I see this show having similar ratings to ABC Breakfast. But in TENLand that’s ‘building success’ like 7PM and The Circle. Andrew Roachford’s appeal is not as long lasting as Kochie or Karl, but TEN will stick with it to the bitter end.
I think I’ll stick with Sunrise
