This is an interesting pick up and I’m intrigued by the potential strategy here. Not sure expensive long form current affairs is worth the investment for 1 hour of content a week. Surely there would be a better strategy to invest the money in beefing up news content across the day and weekends.

Can they afford Liz Hayes?

They can. Maybe not full-time but there are funds there.

Is there a broader push here beyond this rumored long form current affairs show?

Maybe they’ll finally do a ACA/TT clone.

Didn’t they loosely do that with 6PM/6.30 with George Negus in 2011?

I think it made sense to move what was 6PM to half an hour later, so it would go directly H2H with ACA/TT, but the show never rated well and copped the axe after 200 episodes in October 2011, replaced with an expanded Project.

No, a mainstream one with dodgy tradesmen etc. Not a world news focused programme.
