The last day for ATV0 before it changes/relaunches as ATV10 the next day. TV Week had the channel listed as “ATV10/0” for the full week.

When TV Week aligned all its state-based editions to a Saturday-Friday week, the 20 January 1979 issue marked the transition where some extra program days were included to finish on a Friday. (Up until then only the NSW/ACT editions went Sat-Fri. All other states went Wednesday-Tuesday)
For the Gippsland listing, this meant a one-off 10-day listing, as opposed to its normal 7-day format

Channel 9 showed a One Day Cricket match between Australia and South AFrica from Telstra Dome (aka Docklands Stadium in Melbourne). Unfortunately, MCG was unavailable due to the preparations of the Melbourne 2006 Games - ceremonies and athletics.
Back in the days, Channel 9/WIN WA screened the One Day Cricket match on a delayed telecast. But it wasn’t until 2013 which saw every ODI match of the summer screened live in all cities.

Ah yes, 10 to 1 the weird edited version of 20 to 1 Nine would air to fill up random 30-minute periods around 2008/2009.

Was Daybreak (10) and Daywatch (7) both news shows at 6am?
I believe Ten’s Daybreak was a Sydney-based national news, but Seven’s Daywatch from CNN as part of the News Overnight block

10 had an incredible news department throughout the 80s.

All came crashing down by the turn or the decade.

When Channel 7 previously had the Australian Open Tennis rights, Seven Perth would air the tennis at an earlier time. But since the rise of multichannels in 2010s, Seven Perth would have the first few hours of Australian Open Tennis on 7Two/7mate before moving to Seven after 9am. (Sunrise takes priority on the main channel during the tennis).

I was in Melbourne (actually Geelong) at that day and I do remember seeing the cricket on Nine that night, and also remember watching the movie “Car Wash” as one of the late night movies on Nine. In the pre-infomercial era that movie was a late night TV staple at both Nine and later Ten.
