It’s 7plus from 9:30p.m. AEDST for me.
A snap of Telethon host Basil Zempilas with WA premier Mark McGowan on the couch (watching via 7Plus). They have been discussing mostly about how the state has been able to live normally during a global pandemic.

I saw the donations on the ticker and noticed that someone from North Melbourne donated some money. It was quite strange to see a person outside from WA donating to Perth telethon7.

A little awkward that Mark Readings is featured in a pre-recorded Telethon segment tonight, when he was only let off from Seven recently. 
Haha I said the same thing.
Not a bad show so far. They are obviously missing the network stars from the east, but doing a good job with the talent they have.

Do they usually break for Sunrise during Telethon? I didn’t think they did in the past
They have done somewhat in the past. Usually for an hour or so. I’d say given the lack of a availability of the east coast network stars this is a once off.
Has varied year to year.
There was efforts about a decade ago to try and integrate the Sunday Weekend Sunrise into Telethon a bit but that ended relatively quickly.
