Black Widow: The Killing of David Jackson

Part 1: Thursday 14 November 11:45 PM
Part 2: Wednesday 20 November 11:40 PM

In 2021, a birthday in a sleepy resort ended in murder. Within hours, recordings of the aftermath and a shocking confession were shared online and the world was gripped by the story of Penny Jackson and her victim.

9Gem’s annual 007 marathon over summer begins on Sunday, airing a movie every night (earlier on Saturdays - classification and version depending). Starting of course with Dr No.

It always rates very well, some of the most watched m/c movies of the year and provides huge shares for the channel and network. Recently highlighted by Nine as a “success story” in TVT’s m/c survey. The franchise singlehandedly worth the MGM output. Looking at the first non-survey week, even if Seven were to have had a cricket test, it’s hard to see Nine not out in front with their main channel and m/c schedules, pretty solid has to be said.

It usually stops after Die Another Day, with rights possibly different for the more recent titles from Casino Royale (usually these air on the main channel), notably the most recent FTA premiere No Time To Die. Nine usually run an extended promo on-air as well for the marathon, could already be airing or over coming days. @TV.Cynic

The Young and the Restless will finish up on 9Gem next Tuesday at 12:55pm. Replaced by another episode of Days of Our Lives.

Hopefully this means a daytime broadcast for 10 is on the way

With Days of Our Lives airing as double episodes from next week - i wonder how far behind we are to the US? Are they “catching up” for fans, or just used more as a filler? Or both.

They are just running out the episodes they have. Young and Restless is now completely gone from Nine. Days will follow - just a few months of episodes left.

Mrs. Sidhu Investigates

From Monday 17 March at 8.40pm 4 episodes

Mrs. Sidhu (Meera Syal) is a caterer with a taste for solving mysteries. Her sleuthing turns into an unofficial partnership with dour DCI Burton (Craig Parkinson), who reluctantly accepts that together they make the perfect pairing to fight crime.

Previously shown on Acorn TV.

Not sure if it is correct but someone from the TV Tonight Lounge says that Days of Our Lives has finished up on 9Gem.

looking at TV Week for this week, DOOL and TY&TR do appear to be missing now from 9Gem.

Y&R officially finished up a while ago. That is definitely done. DOOL had more episodes to play out so after Y&R finished, DOOL went to double episodes

So an end of an era for Nine and both Days of Our Lives and The Young and the Restless. So now more repeats for the daytime slots for 9Gem, like most multi-channels.

again. Nine had already ditched both shows once before circa 2007. It’s only in the last couple of years that 9Gem took them up again?

2013 for Days of our Lives but yeah, Nine got some cheap deal from Foxtel or Sony to fill a couple of hours on a multichannel with 6+ month old episodes.

yes, sorry that’s right. I think TY&TR might have been 2007?

Yes.
