They could do it there’s a spare studio! Just the budget.
George was Adelade’s anchor for 10 for more than a decade when the production shifted to Melbourne (as was Nikki at the time), while Kelly and then Bec both were long term faces at the ABC here before moving to ten. So they weren’t strangers by any stretch.
is it a national edition of 10 News tonight?
Yes, all week.
Thursday (31.12.2020) - Friday (01.01.2021): Lachlan Kennedy still presenting the national news. Nick Butler in sport from the Melbourne studio and Kate Freebairn is now doing the weather but from Sydney.
Surprised they had to fly her up.
Is there seriously no one in Sydney who could’ve presented weather (and sport too). Surely they aren’t that short-staffed. (Nothing against Nick and Kate though)
And unless she can catch the last flight out she’ll probably stay there for the next little while.
That one.
The border is already closed to greater Sydney
Well said Tim, well said.
At this rate I wouldn’t be surprised that even 10 doesn’t know where their presenters are
Saturday (02.01.2021) - Sunday (03.01.2021):
Natasha Exelby is presenting the national news from Melbourne again this weekend. Jayde Cotic is on weather and Caty Price is doing sport.
Local bulletins are back tonight.
‘local’
Hahaha I was going to wrap it in " " but thought I’d better not
Monday (04.01.2021) - Friday (08.01.2021): Hugh Riminton is presenting the news in Sydney and Brisbane this week.
Charlotte Goodlet is doing Monday weather.
Candice Wyatt returned from Brisbane on January 2 and now must isolate until 6pm Monday.
Candice has been presenting this week filling in for Jen. If Jen is not back on Monday, the Melbourne/Adelaide bulletins will be presented by someone else. Probably either Stephen Quartermain or Natasha Exelby. Hopefully it’s Exelby
Kate Freebairn would’ve also been an option if she wasn’t in Sydney late last year.
She is still in Sydney.
Saturday (09.01.2021) - Sunday (10.01.2021): Lachlan Kennedy is presenting the national news this weekend.
