I absolutely love the 'There’s more to…" ident. Such a great campaign for the ABC and I wish they’d do something like that to underscore its importance in the current climate.
As a 10 year old when it first aired (usually just before ABC Kids) I thought it was the most random thing ever. Now I get all nostalgic and it’s pretty cool to see all the symbolism they put into the various things (the owl above the books, the man sitting on the chair).
The Paul Kennedy filing a report for Ten at the end of the New Years Eve 2003 Sydney News Opener clip…probably the same Paul Kennedy who currently presents sport on ABC News Breakfast?
Last post for now. A Sunrise opener from 2004. Not in digital, unfortunately. Back in the early 2000s, hard drives were much smaller and digital TV bitrates were much higher, so I limited my digital recordings.
Some audio glitches in this, unfortunately. Probably because my 733 MHz computer at the time wasn’t fast enough to encode the TV live.
Pity they didn’t have a publicity shot with Carlotta included. Would be interesting to see a Studio 10 with Ita, Lisa and Carlotta on the panel. Just like old times.
In that program she worked with a range of high-profile personalities, including host Stan Zemanek and fellow panellists media icon Ita Buttrose, Les Girls icon Carlotta, journalist Jo Casamento, former model and TV personality Charlotte Dawson, variety icon Jeanne Little, publicity maven Prue MacSween, activist Jan Murray, and fashion icon Maggie Tabberer.
