Is there any news on what SBS will be programming on its main channel in the mornings?
From my understanding all foreign news bulletins are moving to the news channel.

Tokyo Vice debuts on HBO Max on April 7, but SBS has not yet scheduled an Australian premiere date.
I just noticed in the latest issue of TV Week that there is a “final” appearing next to Jeopardy for next Friday (the 8th of April). For both the SBS version at 5.05pm and the repeat on SBS Viceland version at 7.05pm.
Ive been watching the 7pm-ish version each night for a while now, so it will be a shame if it goes off air. It’s a great show. Any ideas on why Jeopardy is leaving SBS? Or just a mistake from the mag?

Norfolk Island with Ray Martin
Part of Chasing The Light with Ray Martin series.
Sunday 17 April 7:30 PM
Norfolk Island with Ray Martin is a visual feast, rich in land and sea cinematography and photography by some of the best in the business, while at the same time telling the unique, exotic and often surprising story of one of Australia’s great treasures: Norfolk Island.
World famous landscape photographer Ken Duncan chases the light in an odyssey to get the perfect shot on the spectacular island gifted by Queen Victoria to the Pitcairn Islanders, mutineers from the Bounty, their Tahitian wives and their families and descendants.
Ken, the master, has his sidekick and protégé Ray Martin along with him and they link up with local photographer and underwater specialist Zach Sanders. Capturing their chase is one of Australia’s most awarded cinematographers Andy Taylor. Andy turns his own lens on the lensmen and Norfolk’s unforgettable scenery, characters, culture, and customs. We’re there for Bounty Day, a celebration like nothing on mainland Australia featuring Tahitian dancing handed down through generations. Few know that Norfolk has its own language, its endemic flowers and birdlife attract nature lovers from all over the planet and its cuisine is laden with home-grown produce and fruit of the sea.
The film captures the essence of an island nirvana in breath-taking imagery.

Saving Lives At Sea
Monday 9 May 7:30 PM 4 episodes
Every day around the UK, an army of unpaid volunteers put their lives on the line to try and save complete strangers. Saving Lives At Sea tells the story of these ordinary men and women who are doing something extraordinary - giving up their free time to staff more than two hundred RNLI lifeboat stations right across the country and provide a vital rescue service on Britain’s waters.
From the north of Scotland to the south coast of England, in holiday resorts, working harbours, and on the river Thames, volunteers are ready to launch their boats and race to the rescue within minutes of a cry for help coming in - 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, whatever the weather.
Using a combination of specially designed boat-mounted cameras, helmet cameras and directors embedded at lifeboat stations the length and breadth of Britain, this series take us right into the heart of the action, capturing the unpredictable work of the RNLI in never-before-seen detail. The series provides an insight into the lives and motivations of the volunteers, uncovering the stories of those they are called upon to rescue, and exploring our island nation’s evolving relationship with the seas that surround us.

That’s exactly what I complained of when the schedule for the 2022 event came out. What’s wrong with the same day replay of the semi-finals?
Again - an odd decision by SBS by delaying the night replays of the semi-final.
Is the MH 370 doco more important for SBS than the replay of Semi Final 1? Heck, even show the Semi Finals replays on SBS Viceland at 8.30pm (after 8 Out of 10 Cats does Countdown) on the same night as the morning live editions. And show the Grand Final replay on SBS.
