Rebecca Maddern is in hospital after dislocating her toe. No word if she will host Weekend Today tomorrow.

Considering she said on her Instagram story she’s now in the emergency ward and has been posting stories from the hospital as recent as five minutes ago, then I’d say no, she won’t be hosting Weekend Today tomorrow.

Well if she’s in hospital at 9:24pm the night before then I’d say it’s unlikely she will be hosting.

I’d say Dickie and Jane will host, alongside Lara as news reader?

That’s one option - another is to have Belinda Russell or Sylvia Jeffreys host with Dickie and Jayne remains on news.

I wonder if that means they’ll be in NS?
Could they started demolition on the set today and now that Bec isn’t hosting they need a real set for the Sydney presenters?

I wonder what will happen to the big screen behind David & Ally, the screens on the sides near the desk and the big square screen.
Either thrown out as well or repurposed somewhere in Australia?
I guess the rest of the studio e.g. the Soft Set and Wooden Panels would be thrown out.

They could be used for regional news and other shows…
Regional is going into ACA set.
The screen is old and shitty now. It’s 8 years old.
Would make sense instead of throwing them out.
It’s not the first time Bec has been in hospital on a Friday Night for her toe. I remember seeing a Instagram post a couple of months ago where she was in hospital on a Friday Night and still co-hosted Weekend Today the next morning.

What a strange farewell.
Clips of the biggest news stories around the world? Not sure how that fits with them leaving TCN. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate to show clips of footage from, I dunno, TCN??!!
Strange. Odd. Confusing.

Odd indeed. Very news based. With little footage of the news sets themselves.
Thought there would be some montage of the entertainment programs that aired over the years. Even some behind the scenes footage.
The producer at the end did say somwthing on tje lines of “ceasing transmission for the last time at TCN in 3, 2, 1”

Where was the footage of all the programs produced out of TCN? Not just news but sports and entertainment?
A montage of big news stories? That was really strange. Irrelevant and strange. Totally dumbfounded with that one.
