Sunrise (2015-Sept 2020)

I reckon it probably came about when someone accidentally hit ‘s’ instead of ‘a’ when they were doing up the autocue and the kochmeister just rolled with it

Koch = Kochie
Ross = Roscoe
Bath = Bathie

Bit of a theme at Seven. After all, they are the specialists of pointless filler content :wink:

Even though Seven probably popularised it 10-15 years ago, Nine and (to a lesser extent) Ten also love on-air nicknames for their presenters these days! :wink:

Nine possibly started it because they were using Rosscoe for Ian Ross when he was there and also Hendo for Brian Henderson in that era.

I haven’t visited the website in a while but it looks to have been updated recently.

Can Seven’s new year’s resolution please be to remove that blue-rinse stain off their graphics? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Are they serious? Michael and Angela have been working all week (and then some). Is there no one else?

good continuity though rather than swapping and changing.

An extremely watchable program this morning. Light years ahead of Weekend Today. Angela and Michael are very adaptable to light breakfast news and straight through to full bulletins. Seven actually have some amazing talent at the moment.

Michael joked with Angela at the start of the show about all the hours she is currently working , he said she should be sleeping in the studio.

Good chemistry between Musher and Ange this morning. Should be permanent co hosts

I have to reiterate how good the team was this weekend, especially Ange and Musher.

Monique, I find, works much better with the weekday team, fitting given she has been with them since 2001/02.

I said around this time last year that Angela Cox was a very talented presenter and deserved a permanent presenting role and again this year she is shining especially this weekend on Weekend Sunrise.
I think in the years to come Angela will be waiting in the wings for a permanent hosting role.

Sunrise creating pretend news by consulting a psychic. And Germany to win the soccer world cup.
