Again they should be having Melbourne presenters…
Is that David Johnston sitting next to him?
You would think that ScoMo would’ve chosen a different face mask to wear. He looks like a dick wearing that to a funeral.
Obuously a protocol for State funerals, but great to see that in the back half of the service cameras are staying away from Patti and family. Back half is quite sad and good they aren’t planting their grief over the screens.
Very impressed and respectful.
I watched the funeral of Bert Newton live. When the music tribute was played I broke down in tears. Bert Newton has a very wonderful life and he always delivered warmth to homes around Australia. There will never ever be another Bert Newton. Vale Bert Newton, you will be sadly missed. Bert’s dulcet tones will live with us for the rest of our lives.
Wonderful tribute on TV Tonight.
When you visit the page there is a full screen takeover. So classy and well done. Don’t see this happen very often.
I find everything to be a fitting tribute for such an extraordinary person. It’s clear that he’s well respected by fans and colleagues alike and it’s well deserved.
Spot the personalities not wearing the masks properly!!
Yes @BJT2
Eddie isn’t wearing one at all!
ABC News left the coverage at noon
Poor Patty was very emotional as she and family carried Bert’s coffin out of the cathedral
Seven have gone to news now. Nine and 10 staying with the proceedings outside the church.
12:10 AEDT Nine have finished their coverage
AEDT
QLD
10 went to commercial at 12:13 AEDT. Back with Studio 10 after the break; then an infomercial.
Didn’t know Scomo and Bert were such good friends?
Weird Andy went but not Hamish. Do you still have to quarantine if you go to Melbourne? I guess Zoe had books to sign in Sydney.
Were they? Morrison happened to be campaigning in town and being a State Funeral he was probably formally invited
I was being facetious.
He won’t turn up to a important meeting or a protest but will go to a celebs funeral.
