Inouk only lasted a month? What was she like presenting wise?

The length of her tenure answers your question :wink:

With thanks to Steve Rutherford for the upload here’s a video of Inouk Arnall presenting Oz Lotto, from when the “classic” set was still in-use:

That draw was from Tuesday February 17, 2004 going by the information I could find online.

Tracy Challenor used to get some great rating on weekends before Sharyn took over - well in to the 300k’s and sometimes 400+. Tracy really didn’t have to be replaced.

Obviously when Sharyn came along she did even better ratings wise on weekends… but Tracy went out on top. It’s a shame she wasn’t picked up elsewhere.

Remember when the news used to have closing credits?

Does GTV9 still do it on Saturdays?

I don’t think any Sydney TV news service has done closing credits (beyond a “Copyright/Year/Utilising the worldwide resources of…” type thing) for many years!

They haven’t for quite a while now.

I think that went out the door post cyber attack?

Sam Armytage was Roscoe’s fill-in before Chris Bath became weekend news reader and regular fill-in for Roscoe.

Ann Sanders did however present the weekend news from 2004-2006
