Sad to hear the news that Archie Roach has passed away. Was fortunate enough to see him live a couple of times.

One of my earliest memories of watching local news is of John Tingle presenting a commentary segment on WIN 4’s 6 O’Clock News. I was aware that he also presented a radio show on Sydney’s 2GB at the time and marvelled at his commitment to travel down Mt Ousley to do that three minute segment. He also presented WIN 4’s variety programme Tonight for a period.

The Seekers Down Under special in May 1967 still ranks as one of the highest rating specials of all time on Australian TV. It rated a 66 when it aired in Melbourne. It was produced in colour for overseas sale but aired in Australia in black and white. The Seekers were named Australians Of The Year in 1968.
