I’m sure some of these people would like their weekends back, at least for a while. Plus we don’t know what they’re working on that makes them unavailable.
Basil was on the other week from Sydney, Riley has been travelling with the PM.q

The Local news inserts stopped - I think they were actually very well received in Brisbane.
Was it really Stan Grant, or are you thinking of Glen Milne?
What happened to Glen Milne?
Haven’t heard much from/about him since that incident at the Walkleys in 2006 whereby he was involved in an altercation with Stephen Mayne.
I would like to think that he has since retired.
It was really Stan Grant.

Glen Milne continued as a columnist for many years at The Australian following the incident you referred to. I believe he’s now retired.

Agreed. When it comes to a serious event, or extensive coverage, they do it well.

Slightly different opening this morning. Instead of the desk we saw a rain-lashed Martin Place. There were only 2 at the desk when it was shown with sport coming from Brisbane and Nat at Windsor again.

Slight error by Michael in the preview of tomorrow’s show during 7News in Brisbane tonight. He ended by saying, “See you in the morning, Brisbane” instead of “Queensland.”
Was it definitely the state wide one? I know they do a localised Gold Coast version of that sometimes - maybe that was just seen in Brisbane and another statewide one was recorded for STQ transmitters? Although if it was actually IN the bulletin then that is a bit of an issue.

The same promo referring to Brisbane was shown on the Gold Coast which is unusual.
