A Current Affair (2015-Feb 2025)

Depends on how they define ‘good’ in the case of ACA.

Big move if they were to do this. Not sure how it would be managed. Only way I can think is by using the second studio perhaps with a similar setup to the Sydney ACA area, but it might affect Footy Classified.

The footy classified / Sunday footy show set is a universal set. So all they would need to do are some custom graphics and lighting and you’re set.

It’s hard to know what to believe from what they have said. Some of it is Woman’s Day type speculation. Stan Grant, Carrie Bickmore seriously? Anyone can just list names.

True. Humphrey B. Bear.

He already had a stint in the days before the A Current Affair name was resurrected and the show was known as Willesee. Legend has it he copped a tranquiliser dart in the arse from an enraged Sam Chisolm after raiding the fridge on the executive level at TCN and taking a dump on the new marble flooring.

Apparently the front runner is Carrie Bickmore. I dont see her being the right fit it’s probably just her manager leaking it for contract negotiations

Absolutely not the right fit for this show.

She’s a great talent, but I can’t see her interviewing the Prime Minster. The show would seriously need to change to accommodate her talents.

Not sure it needs to be pointed out that just because someone is on the target list doesn’t mean they would necessarily like the style of the show. Not only is Carrie not a good fit for the show, she may not want the job.

I would assume production would move to Melbourne?

It’s been stated above… that nine is open to that idea.

Nine will show A Current Affair on 9Gem in markets where it is not on the main channel on Friday and Saturday this week at 7:00 pm i.e, Sydney. Melbourne, Brisbane, Darwin and east coast regionals.

Tracy presenting from the UK tonight. Don’t think she presented earlier this week.

She’s honestly just so good at these event broadcasts. Such a natural.

A potential reminder for Nine this week when picking a new host, to not mess with the formula too much. This week’s broadcast from the UK has been less popular with viewers (not counting Friday on 9Gem) than usual I’m guessing because it deviates from the regular neighbours from hell and dodgy salesman stories.

Seems it utilizes some of the footage from the upfronts package. It’s the same setup for one.
