This Sunday on 60 Minutes, lessons from the OceanGate tragedy plus Ange Postecoglou and a beguiling fraudster.

Deep Trouble
They had paid hundreds of thousands of dollars, but the prize for the passengers onboard the OceanGate submersible, Titan, was supposed to be worth every cent. They were promised the chance to visit the most iconic shipwreck in history, the Titanic. But sadly, they never made it. Somewhere along the journey, 3.8 kilometres down into the hostile depths of the north Atlantic Ocean, catastrophe struck. As Amelia Adams reports, valuable lessons must be learned from this tragedy. The brutal reality is this wasn’t an adventure. Rather, like the Titanic, it was a disaster just waiting to happen.

Spur of the Moment
English soccer fans are famously passionate, opinionated and knowledgeable. But despite their devotion to the game, until very recently few knew of or cared about Ange Postecoglou. Today it’s a different story. Ange is the first Australian ever to be signed up as the boss of an English Premier League team. But he’s in for a tough time because his new club, Tottenham Hotspur, has been a disaster of late. In desperation the team is hoping the Aussie’s fast and furious style of play, something called Ange-ball, will be what’s needed to turn Spurs’ disappointment into triumph.

The Dupe of Cambridge
How’s this for cheek? Caroline Calloway has become a worldwide internet sensation by being honest about being dishonest. This 31-year-old woman is a brazen, and as Tom Steinfort discovers, quite beguiling fraudster, who has decided to make crime pay by fessing up to it. In her scamming career, Calloway first made her name by lying her way into Cambridge University. Since then she has graduated to even more audacious rip-offs, conning and stealing from a multitude of unsuspecting victims. It’s a sobering indictment, but like it or not, Caroline’s proving that once you’ve had one scandal, you might as well have a thousand.

  1. Matisse her cat might not be the brightest button on the cardigan but Caroline is the sharpest toll in the shed when it comes to her scams and gaining notoriety….why 60 minutes would even cover such a story, give it oxygen and waste viewers time is digging deep into the bottom of a murky barrel…the way some of these “influencers” behave is getting ridiculous and this type of story makes it even worse because some gullible people will probably think it’s okay and try doing the same.
