Sorry it was a joke. Nat and Kochie mentioned it 3 times in the space of 10 seconds in the clip

Begs the question: Why does the EP of a news show need a farewell package, anyway? Does the average viewer know or care who is running the show? A brief acknowledgement of his contribution on his last day would’ve sufficed.

How nice of him to write his own farewell script 
Also I think that’s the longest we’ve heard reach up for the sunrise play out for a long time!

I think he deserves it. He has done a very great job in his role and has arguably changed/influenced the breakfast tv landscape/format in australia

That is where Sunrise will be broadcasting tomorrow.

They probably should’ve aborted the Brisbane OB when it became clear earlier this week Sydney is going under for the third time this year. I suppose that would’ve interfered with Pell’s tropical farewell piss up. While they’re partying and pandering to the Queensland audience, Sydney viewers will be turning to Today for the latest information on the flood emergency.

Angie Asimus presented weather in Sydney as normal tonight, indicating that Monique Wright could be joining the team in Brisbane tomorrow to read the news. That’s if they bring a separate newsreader in the first place…

Sydney goes to Today, while Melbourne just tunes in News Breakfast

Lot more to these sorts of OBs then just the whim of a trip.
I thought they just pointed a camera at the hosts on the day and hoped for the best.

How? I think you mean Boland not Pell.

Yeah that’s not the only reason it’s not a great week for it. Coincidentally, it was this time in the last Federal Election campaign when Today was doing a week of OBs in Qld. Morrison called the election and Today was decimated in the ratings as they tried to do rolling coverage from Townsville. Sunrise would be hoping it ain’t a busy news morning tomorrow.

Friday (08.04.2022): Matt Doran is co-hosting with Nat this morning as they broadcast live from Brisbane. This is the first time he has hosted the weekday edition since late October.
Monique Wright is reading the news.

Matt was also part of the flood coverage from Brisbane earlier in the year so it’s fitting he is there today.
