Some of Nine’s plans for 2017
Rebecca Maddern lands a national hosting role as Nine outlines its programming plan for next year
PUTTING up with Sam Newman all year has paid off for Rebecca Maddern, who has landed a new national hosting gig with Channel Nine.
The journalist-turned-presenter, who won over viewers on the AFL Footy Show, will be announced today as host of the new action-packed sports competition Australian Ninja Warrior.
However he confirmed some key show timings, including a Married At First Sight with “more drama, tears, tantrums and romance” than ever.
“We’re kicking off next year with a new season of Married that’s bigger, better and bolder to kick off the year,” he said.
“Travel Guide is a new format kicking off at the start of the year, where we take a group of families and send them to exotic locations, where they effectively act as guides for viewers. You can imagine the range of characters we have.”
Returning shows listed in the article are no surprise:
Doctor Doctor
Married At First Sight
The Block
Hamish and Andy
