Both 7 and 9 eyeing off the Sydney Opera House-full of wood you know…
Maybe both Sunrise and Today should take note that people want to tune in to watch the News not half the rubbish they produce…
We switched from Sunrise to ABC Breakfast about a year before Mel left so that’s our default go to for morning news. I do miss catching Nelson Aspen though.
There is still good television on FTA. The Recording Studio followed by Employable Me was such terrific storytelling.
