According to ABC’s online guide, both shows have been replaced by 2022 Boyer Lecture and the repeat of Spying on the Scammers respectively.
Here is the synopsis of the Boyer Lecture.
Indigenous community leader, lawyer, academic and land rights activist Noel Pearson reflects on where we are today and what lies in prospect, for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and for Australians at large.

Would they be returning the the good ole days of BBC slate for the network?
It won’t happen, given first-run BBC programs are now seen in various outlets in Australia.
It’s more lucrative for the BBC to sell to multiple outlets to maximise profits.
From Saturday 19 November 8.20pm
When a prominent lawyer, Alex Galbraith, is shot dead in broad daylight, Jimmy Perez is called in to investigate.
Galbraith was known across the Isles and notorious for securing the compassionate release from prison of Donna Killick, the murderer of Lizzie Kilmuir. But is this the reason for the murder, or could the real target have been his wife, Eve, who is running as an independent candidate in the upcoming Westminster by-election on a divisive platform?The team finds plenty of enemies among Galbraith’s recent cases. There’s Lynda Morton. Galbraith helped her husband win custody of their two sons.
Logan Creggan, a veteran accused of war crimes during his tours of Iraq, is another potential suspect. Galbraith refused to defend him. Could Eve’s campaign pledge to restart the government’s war crimes investigations have reopened old wounds? Creggan’s son, Fraser, with his macabre fascination with serial killers, also arouses suspicion.
But then the report of a stolen drone leads the team to Eamon Gauldie, a diver servicing an oil pipeline at the bottom of the North Sea. Believing he may have filmed the Galbraith crime scene, Perez is desperate to speak to him.

ABC digital reporter Siobhan Marin lifts the lid on the booming business of ‘democratised’ porn – erotica made by everyday people and sold for a subscription fee online.
In this Compass Special, ABC digital reporter Siobhan Marin lifts the lid on the booming business of ‘democratised’ porn – erotica made by everyday people and sold for a subscription fee online – to meet the content makers and explore the risks.
Since the dawn of porn, the erotica industry has been dominated by men and powerful corporations.
Now, just like food delivery and transportation, that model’s being tipped on its head. The porn industry is being democratised thanks to online platforms like Only Fans, where anyone – overwhelmingly women – can make money from producing and sharing their own erotic material.With the rise of unemployment during the pandemic, it’s no wonder that thousands of prospective content creators have signed up. In the first four months of 2020, some 200,000 Australians joined – more than 5,000 of them as content creators.
However, the promise of big fast money only proves true for a small minority. Most make very little, while Only Fans profits have soared. Many content creators share compromising material, earn very little and then regret losing control over their images.
Siobhan goes behind the scenes and into the bedrooms of young women to ask is this empowerment or more exploitation? What are the risks and dangers involved? Could their reputations, and future job prospects suffer? Or will this help to abolish the stigma around sex work? And do creators face heightened risk of trolling and real-life stalking?
ABC has shows like Planet America and In China Tonight. I’m surprised they dont have a show yet for England politics. They’ve had lots of topics to talk about lately. Lol. Although we do have The Last Leg with Adam Hills that talks about UK politics.

Noel Pearson’s first Boyer Lecture: Who we were and who we can be
The first of Noel Pearson’s highly anticipated Boyer Lecture series will be shown on Thursday 27 October at 9.30pm on ABC TV and ABC iview.
In Who we were and who we can be Pearson will explore the proposal to amend the Constitution to recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Peoples of Australia through a Voice to Parliament.
Pearson says: “In this lecture I will refer to three periods: the past, the present and the prospective future.
Pearson’s lecture series will look at where we are today and what lies ahead for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and all Australians. It will also reflect on where we have come since W.E.H. Stanner’s 1968 Boyer Lectures After the Dreaming.
The series will be broadcast on ABC RN on Sundays in November and available on demand via ABC listen.
From Monday 21 November 8.45pm
Episode 1 of 2
The story of one our most gifted and controversial athletes and how a social media post landed him in the heart of our culture wars.
This two-part documentary is the much-anticipated story of one of Australia’s most gifted and controversial athletes, and how a social media post landed him at the heart of our culture wars, derailing careers in the process.
For the first time Israel Folau’s story is examined in all its multi-layered complexity, featuring crucial Pasifika voices and exploring the nexus between freedom of religion and speech, protection from discrimination for the LGBTQI community, and how far the workplace can reasonably go to balance the two.
PART 1 traces Israel Folau’s upbringing in the devout Christian traditions of the Pasifika community, whose other ‘religion’ is rugby. It follows his meteoric and record setting rise through three football codes, culminating in 73 appearances for the Wallabies.
While initially grappling with the pitfalls of fame and fortune, when his father Eni experiences a major health scare, Folau re-evaluates his choices, setting him on a path that will alter the course of his career and life forever.
Production credit: 2 x 60 mins. An In Films Production. Principal production investment from Screen Australia and developed with support from Screen NSW. ABC Commissioning Editor: Jo Chichester.
Monday 28 November 8.40pm
Folau posts an internet meme that rocks the nation and sees him sacked by Rugby Australia. With insider accounts, this episode unpicks what happens in the hours, days and weeks that follow and shows the impact it had on the Pasifika community – straight and queer.
As he fights his former employer in the courts of justice and public opinion, he finds an ally in the Australian Christian Lobby, becoming a voice in Australia’s political cycle, galvanising forces debating the impact of a proposed religious discrimination bill.

Legendary performer Judy Garland (Renee Zellweger) arrives in London in the winter of 1968 to perform a series of sold-out concerts, in an attempt to reclaim her popularity and reputation.
Winter 1968: Showbiz legend Judy Garland (Renée Zellweger) arrives in Swinging London to perform in a sell-out run at The Talk of the Town. It is 30 years since she shot to global stardom in THE WIZARD OF OZ, but if her voice has weakened, its dramatic intensity has only grown.
As she prepares for the show, battles with management, charms musicians, and reminisces with friends and adoring fans, her wit and warmth shine through. Even her dreams of romance seem undimmed as she embarks on a courtship with Mickey Deans (Finn Wittrock), her soon-to-be fifth husband. And yet Judy is fragile.
After working for 45 of her 47 years, she is exhausted; haunted by memories of a childhood lost to Hollywood; gripped by a desire to be back home with her kids. Will she have the strength to go on?
Featuring some of her best-known songs, including the timeless classic ‘Over the Rainbow’, JUDY celebrates the voice, the capacity for love and the sheer pizzazz of “the world’s greatest entertainer”.Renee Zellweger won the Academy Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role for her portrayal of Judy Garland.
Production credit: Directed by Rupert Goold; Written by Tom Edge; Produced by David Livingstone.

Wilogical is a new, hour-long show which promises a serving of Wil Anderson doing what he does best – trying to make sense of the world and his place in it live on stage with joke after joke.
Wil Anderson’s comedy is high energy, unpredictable and has a joke count that should carry a heart health warning. From his festival debut in 1997 through to 2019 Wil wrote and performed a new show every year, 25 different shows to sell-out audiences all over Australia and the world.
Then in 2020, well something happened…The global pandemic reset the boundaries of the preposterous, the inconsistent, the implausible, the nonsensical… the Wilogical. (Honestly, these puns write themselves).
Anderson’s new show is as astute as it is hilarious. After twenty-plus years in the game Wil remains a relentless innovator, with shows that get better each year. Wilogical is no exception.
Wil Anderson is one of Australia’s most prolific comedians. He is a Helpmann award winner and a six-time MICF People’s Choice winner. He is Executive Producer and host of ABC TV’s Gruen and Question Everything, and he has hosted multiple smash hit podcasts: Wilosophy, TOFOP, FOFOP and 2 Guys 1 Cup. Wil Anderson is simply as good as comedy gets in our part of the world.
Production credit: A Guesswork Television Production. Written and Performed by Wil Anderson. Producers: Georgina Ogilvie, Lauren Moore. Director Catherine Vanderwolf. Executive Producers: Frank Bruzzese, Kathleen McCarthy.

In 1972, the planting of a beach umbrella by young Aboriginal activists in the lawns opposite Parliament House sparked a revelation across the country.

Fifty years on, the Aboriginal Tent Embassy is the oldest continuing protest occupation site in the world and the fight for land justice continues. Still We Rise celebrates the young articulate feisty activists who fought so hard to inspire the generations to come.
