Weird end to the late-finishing Melbourne bulletin (at 7:44pm) - “And that’s the way it is this Saturday the 1st of April - I know it’s Monday, that was just a joke.”

Surprised there wasn’t the usual outrage at the news being delayed for sport. Maybe everyone’s now accepted that there are other places for news besides a bulletin at 6pm on one channel

Whoever made that up is nuts. It’s April Fools DAY (therefore 24 hours), not April Fools 1/2 Day…

Yes - after the sign off he said to the studio “Bit of an April Fools …” and that’s all we heard as he looked to the other 2 team members.

Looks like Melbourne pre-recorded their entire sports segment from Adelaide as Tim Watson is so hopeless on location.
