NRTV had started a loose affiliation with Network Ten come early 1987. It relayed Sydney’s Eyewitness News on weekends however still took TCN9 News on delay at 6.30 weeknights as it was only 30 mins long. TEN’s weekday news at 1 hour would have interrupted NRTV’s schedule in those days working around programmes such as Perfect Match, Neighbours & Sale of the Century. By 1988, NRTV start using TEN’s News theme and ident music and relayed more of TEN’s programmes before full affiliation in late 1991.
