Karl being ‘arrested’ and put into custody this morning was priceless. All because he failed the agility test :rofl:

While the new split screen is looking good, it could do with some adjustment. Either Richard should rein in his wandering left arm or there should be a slightly bigger separation. Rebecca generally has her arms under better control but occasionally it looks likes she’s too close to Richard.



It also looks strange when there is a shot that switches to include Jayne and Richard together; it’s a case of where did Rebecca go? Perhaps she should be on the left of screen.

Do you mean Rebecca? That’s Rebecca Maddern.

Yes -oops.

They do seem a bit close up.

But then she would physically be too close to Richard.

Huh? Rebecca is in Melbourne and Richard is in Sydney. They aren’t getting physically anything.

I thought he was saying Jayne should be on the left. Either way, it would put Richard and Jayne too close together.

No different to when Davina sits there next to Belinda/ Sylvia during Today Extra.

Wow, to the average home viewer, that first cap looks flawless. If there weren’t any wide shots or wandering arms, no one would be able to even tell they’re in different studios/states!

Agree. The “illusion” gets broken when in the next shot Richard is by himself with a big gap to Jayne and then they show Rebecca in a split screen. Seems to be inconsistent.

On Wednesday because of the US Presidential Debate:

Adelaide will get their morning programs live from the east coast starting with Nine News Early Edition (4:30 am) and including Today (5:00 am) and Today Extra (8:30 am).

They need to zoom out on Bec and Richard to allow for more gap between them. Pretty easy solution lol

Watching the show for a few days, Karl and Ally do have good chemistry, she keeps him in check, but Karl looks so uncomfortable… is it his chair, the desk, or his clothes? :slight_smile:
My folks inform me that Tim the weather guy has been in Qld for a few weeks now… wonder if that has helped the Qld ratings of late?

Sunrise won yesterday’s breakfast ratings but Today was less than 25,000 behind in the 5-city total; one of the closest results of the year. News Breakfast was 35k behind Today.

Rankings per market

Syd S > T > N Sunrise easy win
Mel N > T > S News runaway winner
Bri T > S > N (Today had more Brisbane viewers than Today and Sunrise had in Melbourne)
Ade S > T > N Sunrise also equal to combined T + N
Per S > N > T Sunrise also equal to combined T + N

Code: Sunrise, Today, News Breakfast
