- Olympic Games coverage on Channel 9 (including overnight) and Channels 7 and 2.
- The National Football League is live from Norwood Oval, Adelaide. The competition featured teams from Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia.
- The Norman Gunston Show returns with a new series, with Gunston recently the winner of the TV Week Gold Logie
- Lots of familiar names in the news lineups: Eric Pearce, Peter Hitchener, David Johnston, Brian Naylor, Bruce Mansfield, Geoff Raymond. But not one female newsreader. Women reporters were still much of a novelty, but they dominated the weather, with Ilona Komesaroff on 7, Kerry Armstrong on 9 and Briony Behets on Eyewitness News.
- Interesting to see that GMV6 is on the same episode of The Box as ATV0. Very unusual to have metro and regional channels in sync in those days.
