Two shows in one day for PM Tony Abbott. Was it really so spontaneous?

Prime Minister Tony Abbott was busy yesterday, fronting up on two shows, Wake Up and Nine’s coverage of the Ashes.
First he was ‘surprised’ by Natarsha Belling in an unscheduled and shirtless interview while surfing at Queenscliff beach.
It was a good get for the TEN brekkie show, even though he didn’t manage to drop any news of any note.
But whether it was genuinely spontaneous isn’t clear -surely his minders know what time the show broadcasts from the location. If it was anonymity he was after, Sydney has plenty of beaches without a breakfast TV show on air.
Later he was in the commentary box at the Ashes on Nine, chatting for 15 minutes.
Any suggestions where he may surface next?

@maxxdude, I think Peta Credlin was in a boat letting him swim toward the set up.
Maxxdude that was gold!!!!!!!!!! Definitely LOLing!!!
It was so freaking awesome that Tony Abbott was on Wake Up. And well done to Natarsha too. I hope he comes back on the show soon.
No thanks, if I want to read mindless comments I will go to the Fairfax websites.
I think people need to remember that while some don’t like PM Abbott, half the country voted him in despite Fairfax or the ABC or other sites having a tasty about a democratic result :)
