I think the Courier Mail headline is better with the use of ‘heir’.
Melbourne last night 
Why are going back and forth to Sydney so much? Better question still, instead of multiple visits to Sydney, how about Adelaide or Perth or or remote centres?
Invictus Games.
They are only doing day trips to Dubbo and Melbourne.

As mentioned in the Nine News Content & Appearance thread last night, Sophie Walsh last night did a pre-recorded segment for Sydney’s news which looked looking at all the locations (even Fiji, Tonga & New Zealand) Harry & Megan will be visiting during the tour.
True to form, Nine News Sydney went all out for the graphics:
Anyway…
Mainly so they can be in town Invictus Games as per @eddel, but I agree that October 19 & 21 probably could’ve been better used to visit other locations of Australia (remembering how William & Kate attended both during their April 2014 tour of Australia, perhaps Canberra and/or Uluru?) while still being in Sydney for the start & end of the Invictus Games.
Either way, the Australian media will probably be much more interested in the Royal Tour than the general public is. Aside from hearing about what the coverage is like, I don’t really care anyway.

The Opening Ceremony is on 20 October, that is probably why they are spending more than one night in Sydney. Harry is I’m guessing attending other functions during the day in the lead up to the Opening.

Whoops, of course, sorry I completely forgot about the Invictus Games, carry on.

“Unprecedented Access”. What a load of rubbish.

Indeed, what does unprecedented look like?
All of these events are covered with a super pool, everyone chipping in resources and then sharing the output, so I don’t see where the “unprecedence” kicks in.
I guess they could have better reporters… and better graphics like that stylised R in a circle… what does that mean by the way? Is it R for Royal? That’s sophisticated…
