Sunday Night: Oct 29

On Sunday Night, Angela Cox looks at the rescue of a mother & son whose 10 day bush survival is attributed to tips from watching Bear Grylls, while Steve Pennells meets model La’Tecia Thomas.

Lost
Earlier this month, Michelle Small and her son, Dylan, set out on what was meant to be a short bushwalk in the Hunter Valley’s rugged Mount Royal National Park. But they very quickly found themselves hopelessly lost. They had no food, no water, no phone – nothing – just an incredible will to live. For 10 days, as their chances of survival began to fade, Michelle’s only thought was to protect her boy. Incredibly, they were rescued from certain death. They’re alive today thanks largely to the power of a mother’s love, and a little practical help from Dylan’s idol, Bear Grylls. Sunday Night’s Angela Cox has this amazing tale of survival.

All of Me
La’Tecia Thomas lights up the screen. She shatters all stereotypes and re-writes the rules on how a top model should look. She’s bold, beautiful, vivacious… and big. La’Tecia used be a size 10. Now she’s a size 16 and more successful as a model that she’s ever been. La’Tecia has carved out a career as one of Australia’s top plus-size models, with a massive global following. And as Sunday Night’s Steve Pennells discovers, she doesn’t give a damn what the fat-shamers think.

Sunday at 7.00pm on Seven.
