2013-10-25_1129Sunday night it’s game on in the One Direction stakes.

While the Brits will be performing Live on The X Factor (and you just know they will be kept until the last minute), they will also be the subject of a story on 60 Minutes.

Wipe Out
Tom Carroll is a living legend. A former world champion who redefined surfing and even today chases the biggest waves on the planet. But what few of his fans realise, it’s not massive surf that threatens to wipeout Tom Carroll, rather a long term, life threatening battle with drugs. Now, Tom is coming clean. It’s a story of triumph, heartbreak and addiction. On 60 Minutes, Tom Carroll talks openly about the drug that nearly cost him his life, his ongoing battle to stay clean and the shocking family secret that would ironically help save him.

Great Migration
It’s the greatest movement of animals on the planet – one and a half million wilderbeest, migrating through some of Africa’s most stunning wilderness. The epic journey covers three thousand kilometres, as the animals chase the rain through Tanzania into Kenya. Also on the track, hundreds of thousands of zebras, gazelles and antelopes. And lying in wait, armies of predators – big cats and even bigger crocodiles that depend on this once-a-year bonanza. Of all nature’s spectacles, it’s the one Ray Martin has been longing to witness and the incredible pictures he captured won’t leave you disappointed.

One Direction
Right now, One Direction is the biggest band in the world. Thrown together on a TV talent show, they’ve achieved more than anyone, least of all themselves, may have ever imagined. These five young men, clean-cut and professional, have become one of the world’s most successful acts since their inception 3 years ago. Their continued success depends on them living a scandal-free existence – wholesome role models worthy of teenage girl hysteria.

  3. @maxxdude I think because Simon Cowell is in charge of the x factor franchise and this was the show where they were put together so he has orgainsed them to go on the gf to help boost ratings and the x factor brand.

    But seriously its 1d overload at the moment. Im sorry but some of the fans are over the top and I sort of fell sorry for the group because they really cant get out and see any of australia while they are here.
