No AFL thanks to State of Origin played for the final time

Given Canberra stopped doing local telecasts of their teamâs matches after 1993, this was Canterbury 30-10 Penrith at Concord Oval (a short lived experiment of playing home games there by the Bulldogs). As for the 500, won by Al Unser Jr for the 2nd time in 3 years, this coverage and that of the IndyCar World Series was linked to the Gold Coast race which was at the start of the season until 1998 when it was switched to late in the year. Sadly there wasnât even Pay TV coverage of this yearâs 500, run 2 days ago.
Fox Sports covered the Indianapolis 500 last weekend with live coverage.
So when did the 10.30am Morning News start?
Im assuming Sunrise weekdays was also put hold on this day?
No, Sunrise continued but it was only a one-hour news bulletin
But wasnât that sunrise edition axed in 1999? Then later returned for the 2000 Olympics.
maybe it was axed later in the year. I donât recall and Iâm just going by TV Week listings that still had Sunrise going into June 1999 well after Eleven AM had finished.
Ok thanks. I would say it might have been when they launched the Big Breakfast.
Iâve seen listings for Big Breakfast at 6am in August 1999 so Sunrise News mustâve continued for a couple of months after 11AM was axed. It looks like Seven decided to have another go in the lead up to the Sydney Olympics with Sunrise News presented by Georgie Gardner and Mark Beretta at 6am listed from May 2000 with The Big Breakfast following at 7am, eventually replaced by All Music Video. Sunrise News expanded to 90 minutes following the Sydney Olympics.
EDIT: Looks like the final Sunrise News went to air 25 June, 1999.
EDIT: Big Breakfast launched 2 August, 1999.

Thanks for that.
From 1996-2019 Sunrise wasnât on air between June 25th 1999 - May 2000.
Sunday Sunrise continued though.

Iâve just edited my post. The Book Place aired at 8.30am on Ten, as usual.
2 Months after Ten gave Super Crime Saturday a shot, theyâd already replaced the schedule pre-late night with movies.

This is from 1979. A much less enlightened time. Something tells me weâre not going to see a reboot of that 12pm show⌠ever.
While I do recall black face being around as a form of âentertainmentâ when I was growing up, I donât recall watching that show. I can hardly believe that aired in my lifetime and the BBC was still producing such shows as late as 1978.
