I couldn’t make it. Nothing on 7 I wanted to watch from 7.00-11.20. Fell asleep around 10 and woke up about 11.40. If there had been only one ep of Amazing Race, I may have lasted.

Isn’t that the point though? To be the latest late news bulletin?

Lol. Not that late!! Lol
Well Sky News and ABC have a 12am (Sydney time) bulletin

They should just make it 11-12 every night… night after night. You can repeat the news on the half hour.
Find a way for your 7.30-11pm programs to finish on time for an 11pm start.

The Latest gets a promo/preview tonight. Interesting that the scheduled shows that the bulletin starts at 11:10pm - would have been a good night for an earlier start.

I’ve just seen a promo with Musher on set and it says 11.05… ffs
How does the latest tend to rate? I see the point about it being too late for most viewers who have watched television throughout the night and watch 9’s earlier alternative, but what about those people who get home late/turn the tv on before bed for a flick through?
I can’t understand why 7 wouldn’t commit to a standard slot unless it is rating well enough in its current sporadic slots.

Seven probably should have aired one episode of Showtrial, instead of a double episode, and aired The Latest at 9.40pm - with what’s happening with Ukraine and Russia.
But generally, i dont know how it compares in the 10.45 onwards slot to other shows that air in the same slot. A comparison could be The Project repeat on 10 that sometimes airs at a similar slot to each other (even if the Project is an hour long)

whoops. meant to put this in the “ukraine” thread
Wonder if we’ll see special coverage on any of the networks on Friday and Saturday night, especially if the situation continues to deteriorate?
Programming beyond 8:30pm that will otherwise do under 300k, Seven have a perfect opportunity and to counter ACA on Sat at 7pm with a Sat edition of Latest (as the timeslot was originally changed for back in early 2020 for the beginning of coronavirus).
Could be third year in a row where a weekend or more has had programming upended by a major global breaking news event (2020: coronavirus, 2021: Prince Philip death and funeral).
Has the latest started? Because there is no FB live stream for some reason.
The first half-hour of the program was commercial-free and focused only on the situation with Russia and Ukraine. I thought it was quite well done.

It is a Local edition or a national edition.
Not sure. It is a Qld flood special though. Sharyn mentioned it at the end of the 6pm news and they showed a full screen graphic.
