On the Perth Bears?
A Current Affair has been banned from showing footage of a doorstop interview inside a women’s toilet with an employee of an under siege finance company.
Nine agreed to bin the footage taken by former reporter Seb Costello and his camera operator to avoid a legal battle with lender Oak Capital.
The gag order was a win for Oak Capital, which continues to face a separate legal fight with the corporate watchdog ASIC over claims it denied customers the right to avoid “excessive fees and interest” on $37 million worth of loans.
Justice Richard Attiwill handed down the ruling on the case, which will ensure that the footage will never see the light of day.
“(Nine Network) will direct all staff of ‘A Current Affair’ not to enter the premises at The Rialto, 525 Collins Street, Melbourne for the purposes of filming the plaintiffs, until 30 July 2025,” the judgment stated.
“(Nine Network) any of their broadcast licence holding entities will not publish or cause to be published, disseminate, or provide by any means, to any person, any material that was filmed by them, their employees, officers or agents on 25 November 2024 relating to the plaintiffs (the footage).”
Oak Capital and Nine were ordered to pay their own costs.
A parody of current affairs programs.
Been a while since I’ve seen a really trashy promo like that for ACA!

Have those couches/lounges / carpet been used before?
Don’t believe so, probably hired them.
Could’ve done with a coffee table or two in the middle so it didn’t look like they were sitting in a foyer or waiting room.
Also would’ve hid some of the joins between the rugs and the slight colour differences.
