Update - Nine has pulled Lost On Everest from Tuesday’s (tomorrow’s) schedule.

08:40 pm Million Dollar Murders Rpt Gary Allibon was ambushed during a robbery on his cash transit van in the middle of Sydney’s CBD in 2010. He was due to retire within eight months, when he was fatally shot in the back. He had his hands up surrendering, when he was murdered. Despite extensive investigations at the time and over the past decade, no one has been charged over Allibon’s murder. MDM and NSW Police name the main suspect and reveal new information that may help the public bring justice for Gary’s widow Monica.

Pure speculation on my part, may be in response to the death of an Australian today on Mt Everest.
TVT running with an article suggesting the same, I commented there how the networks and for some unfortunate reason Nine are always good at doing this, in better taste. Also good at tribute broadcasts, such as Ten’s “Mrs Doubtfire” in 2013 after Robin Williams’ tragic passing and rated big.
If you go up Mt Everest there’s a pretty good chance you’ll die. 10 have this year already. I think it would be informative as a doco but I can see why they pulled it.
Schedule change in Melbourne tonight with Footy Classified brought forward to 10.00pm due to the breaking news in the AFL with Richmond coach Damien Hardwick to quit.
Firstly, is this confirmed, wow! Secondly, yeah I was going to say, 10pm? Meh, negligible difference, 9pm would’ve been better. I’m sure the show/GTV would’ve tried to ask programming, but must’ve been knocked back, in favour of network first run RPA play-out (ratings? contractual/commercial?)
Victorian government mustn’t have continued funding, first season was filmed in Melbourne IIRC.
This seems more a make-goods for advertisers to me now, but perhaps product placement within the show too, so also need to repeat them - I mean Nine surely must admit to themselves it’s very unlikely to go anywhere from here, last night another low and close to a Highway Patrol re-run IIRC.
