Channel Nine On-Air Presentation: 2001-02

Wait, Rob Gell presented Crime Stoppers? I assumed that Peter Hitchener always presented it.

May have been a one-off for some reason, I remember Hitchener usually presented Crime Stoppers as well.

The Tatts Keno draw has “Monday 23rd July 2001” as the date? So I’d probably say that particular recording is from then rather than Sunday the 15th.

Great caps nonetheless. The ACA Promo must’ve been one of the first to use those graphics.

Oops, had a brainfart when I wrote the date. :sweat_smile: Thanks for the heads up.

Seems to be a mix of recordings from throughout the year. 3/4/2001 would be the airdate of the recording which had the endtags for Flat Chat on a new night, The Best Of The Paul Hogan Show and Emma.

Going by the info I can find (Sydney listings from The SMH via Newspapers.com, so make of these what you will) for some of the other endtags…

*The “Senseless” endtag is definitely for the March 18 premiere of that movie (pretty sure all the Sunday Night Movie airings in 2001 would’ve been networked ones anyway).
*The “Unforgettable” endtag might be for the July 28 airing of that movie.
*The Towering Inferno endtag might be for the August 25 airing of that movie.
*The endtag for The Pelican Brief might be for the October 19 airing of that movie.

No idea about the airdate of Midsomer Murders: Destroying Angel. It and Taggart (another Friday 8.30 endtag) must’ve been something which only aired in the Southern states while the Northern ones were getting NRL!

Thursday? Anyway, the first of those two promos probably would’ve been from Late March with the Series Return of Good Medicine being on March 29.

Don’t quote me on this, but I think the edition of The AFL Footy Show “Direct From Perth” happened in April (remember hearing this mentioned during a Pete Smith voiceover at the end of a Sale Of The Century episode someone had on YT a while back) - might be the same recording as the 2nd promo for Location Location/Good Medicine.

Are they actual specialised PRGs or from promos for DS9 and Voyager?

I find it interesting the team would go to the effort for programs airing at (earliest) 10.30/11pm?

That day marked a new era for CHannel NIne where they broadcasted its first AFL match, Richmond v Collingwood at the MCG. Channel NIne replaced Channel Seven as its telecaster of Thursday/Friday Night AFL. In December 2000, Nine gained the rights (along with 10 and Foxtel) to the AFL, replacing Seven

Hooray for aspect ratio stuff-ups on analogue to provide us with possibly our only opportunities to see this sort of thing in 16.9, I guess.

It’s so fascinating to see the differences in presentation between the capitals, especially with the PRGs.
