Fordo is filling in for Tom for the next few weeks

Temporary studio setup at Gardens Hill in Darwin whilst they complete their move to Mitchell Street.

I would think Today might be safe due to the format and flexibility required, especially with performances and different set-ups.

Some good old fun at 7.50 today, with the team racing around in motorised lounge chairs.
EDIT: Twitter post (from around 3min mark)


This is what the show needs going forward, as was proven in 2008/09.
But once again, terrible use of the set.

Of course they have it do it inside. Cause it could be raining outside their studios in Willoughby

I have no problem with the fact it was inside, but they could have decorated the set a bit more (even put in some roll-in screen monitors).

Fordo is a nice familiar face that the show could use. I could never stand him when Karl was on the show because they are too similar.

Ben, Deb and GG is like a dream team that it seems like we will forever be denied from.
Based off the comments of Facebook, people agree with me.

Brooke is now on holidays for a few weeks.
She presented Entertainment from Hollywood Monday until Wednesday.

How great is that- you get an assignment overseas, then you get to go on holidays from there!

That means we get the ā€˜old’ Today team, minus Karl and Lisa for the next few weeks- Georgie, Ben, Deb, Stevie and Dickie. Can’t whinge about lack of familarity.

There’s been a lot of long shots during the show this week by using the camera jib. Which is great

Ben controversially is not wearing a tie today… Even Simon Reeve used to wear one for the news during Sunrise’s no tie era.

Thoughts on having Fordo this week

There’s a good sense of fun right now among the team. Sunrise has lost its broad ā€œEveryday Australianā€ feel in recent years so I reckon it’s something Today needs to capitalise on. Long term I think they are in with half a chance.

That’s why I like Fordo on the Today Show
