I didnât realise that the advertorial segments on The Morning Show & The Daily Edition were produced in Perth - I just assumed they were done in Sydney or Melbourne!
And sheâs really good here at Telethon.
Rick said last night (when Joel Creasey told him Sue should move out so he could move in) that he would need to come back in many years as Sue isnât going anywhere.
Nat was at a friends wedding. (Kochie mentioned how itâs like having a wedding on GF day - you donât plan one for Telethon weekend).

Iâm well aware who Kaz is, sheâs been part of TMS for a decade, but my point (if itâd been missed) was why does she need to me a part of Telethon? Seems a rather odd choice.
Though I didnât realise she flew to Perth regularly, read somewhere TMS advertorials were filmed in Sydney and Melbourne.
Karen attended last yearâs Telethon as well.
I reckon some advertorials are still done in Sydney or Melbourne.

If she is a presenter on the Seven Network, on programs that air in Perth, why would that be an âoff choiceâ?

Wow! $38 million have been raised in this yearâs Telethon. We have broken another record this year. This was surpassed from the $36.4 million raised from 2017. Congratulations. You Beauty!

And it was achieved despite a weaker guest line-up than last yearâs 50th anniversary.
This year is the first time I watch Telethon for a substantial period. I saw the opening, the early morning (5.30am-6.30am AWST), breakfast and then the final two hours tonight. I was impressed with the production standard. If only some of those elements can be transferred to next yearâs Good Friday Appeal here in Melbourne. But guess donation is the most important thing here.

Last year I was at Telethon for mid morning early afternoon and watched bits and pieces at home.
Well done to all of Perth and Western Australia.

I watched the closing part of the Telethon that involves Leo Sayer singing You Make me feel like dancing. The people on the stage danced and sang out in unison. During the end, they played a tribute to Savannah Addis, Telethon 2011 star who tragically passed away 2 months ago. Your legacy will live on forever, Savannah. RIP Savannah. (2000-2018) The telecast finished at 8:40PM (Perth Time).
Arnt they done at silk studios where they also produce them for today extra too?
Basil has been doing Telethon since the turn of the decade after Jeff Newmanâs retirement in 2009
I went to the closing tonightâŚ
