Hard cut-in mid-way into the Cleo disappearance story then some off-air chit chat between the reporter and Michael for around 20 secs (how are you, how’s your day been?) before black screen then the bulletin started proper with the intro.
Then join Michael Usher from 9.15pm AEDT for a special one-hour edition of The Latestfrom 7NEWS on Channel 7 and 7plus, live to a team of reporters at key locations with up-to-the-minute developments and analysis of what really happened and the moment that turned the case.
Hear from police on the ground as they continue their investigations, as well as the suspect’s neighbours and their first-hand accounts of the 36-year-old’s strange behaviour in the days leading up to Cleo’s rescue. Plus, the latest reaction from Cleo’s family.
Tonight, Michael Usher chatted with Dee Madigan and Caroline Overington. Their talk aired as a a three-way-split-screen chat. We know that some of the interviews/chats on The Latest are not live. But Caroline’s background was clearly a daytime shot with city shots in the distance (like cars and buses driving past, and people walking past). It’s not a big thing, but it annoyed me for some reason.
