LIZ HAYES RETURNS FOR A NEW SEASON OF UNDER INVESTIGATION
Join Australia’s leading experts and investigators at the War Table where the country’s most baffling crimes are reopened and re-examined on Under Investigation with Liz Hayes.
Wednesday, February 8, at 9.00pm on Channel 9 and 9Now marks the return of Nine’s flagship studio program when acclaimed investigative journalist Liz Hayes, together with new teams of criminal and forensic experts, puts eight captivating cold cases under the microscope. There’s fresh evidence, exclusive witnesses – and extraordinary revelations.
Under Investigation launches with an eerie outback mystery. Loving couple Ray and Jennie Kehlet join colleague Graham “Grumpy” Milne on a gold-prospecting trip to the red heart of Western Australia. Three people go out but only one comes back. Then a body is found in a remote mineshaft. With a senior member of the police investigative team joining our panel of UI experts, the case is laid open as never before.
UI will also examine the strange case of “Willi” Koeppen, Australia’s first celebrity TV chef, who disappeared without a trace in 1976. He owned one of Australia’s most celebrated restaurants, patronised by the rich and famous, from prime ministers to pop stars. With a real-life “Cluedo” cast of suspects our UI experts retrace Willi’s final hours and reach a shocking but inescapable conclusion.
The program also investigates a legal scandal without parallel in the Western world: the case of South Australia’s chief forensic officer, Dr Colin Manock, who for more than 30 years conducted thousands of autopsies and gave expert testimony in hundreds of cases without the key specialist qualification. Innocents were jailed, potential murderers went free – and as revealed by UI, senior members of South Australia’s criminal justice system knew the truth.
December 12, 2022 will forever be marked as one of the cruellest days in Australian history, when two young police officers attending a routine missing persons enquiry were ambushed and killed in cold blood on a remote Queensland property. The killers, radicalised online by crazed conspiracy theories, visited their murderous ideology in the real world. In the first major television analysis of this shocking crime, Under Investigation’s team examines what many say is the frightening new front of domestic terrorism.
Liz Hayes said: “I am grateful Under Investigation continues to attract the country’s most skilled criminal experts to dissect and decode both decade-old and recent unsolved crimes. A unique combination of new technology, people’s yearning desire to tell their truth, and our unwavering commitment to comprehensive analysis prove to be groundbreaking for these cases. Absolutely everything is up for investigation.”
Take your seat at the War Table when Under Investigation with Liz Hayes returns Wednesday, February 8, at 9.00pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.

‘THE LAST LUNCH’
AN UNDER INVESTIGATION SPECIAL
TOMORROW AT 8.40PM ON CHANNEL 9 & 9NOW
A special edition of Under Investigation with Liz Hayes will probe the case that has gripped the world: the mystery mushroom lunch that turned into a tragedy, tomorrow night at 8.40pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
In the small town of Leongatha in eastern Victoria, five people gather to enjoy Saturday lunch - a traditional Beef Wellington cooked by host Erin Patterson. But within days, three of the guests are dead, another clings to life.
In a major television investigation, host Liz Hayes leads a team of criminal, psychological and forensic experts to examine this most baffling of cases.
If, as police suspect, the deaths are the result of the highly toxic Death Cap mushrooms, the question is how did they find their way into Erin Patterson’s Beef Wellington?
Hayes said: “This is a perplexing case that echoes the plot of a mystery novel, yet its real-life implications have thrust it into the international spotlight and onto our UI War Table.
“As the world collectively questions what transpired and holds its breath for the answers, UI has assembled some of the country’s most skilled experts to dissect the evidence from that fateful Saturday afternoon.”
Liz Hayes is joined at the War Table by distinguished experts: Dr Michael Robertson, a toxicologist who was pivotal in the infamous Baden-Clay murder case in Queensland; Alex Krystic, a former Victorian Major Crime Detective and seasoned bushman; Damian Marrett, a leading private investigator and former Victorian detective who travelled to Leongatha for UI; Tamara Cavenett, a clinical psychologist who brings her expertise to this family tragedy; and mushroom specialist Dr Heike Neumeister-Kemp, one of Australia’s preeminent mycologists.
What really happened in Leongatha? Find out in Under Investigation with Liz Hayes tomorrow at 8.40pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
Bit soon isn’t it? There’s still a police investigation happening

My thoughts exactly.
The show is called Under Investigation. It’s probably the most accurate the title has ever been.

Unusual to mention the ratings for a show in such detail (and compare it to Hard Quiz etc on ABC).

SECRETS OF THE BALIBO FIVE: AN UNDER INVESTIGATION SPECIAL
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 17, AT 8.40PM ON CHANNEL 9 & 9NOW
Under Investigation with Liz Hayes will reveal the shocking true story of the Balibo Five and the dreadful cover-up, much of which has remained untold for nearly 50 years, tomorrow night at 8.40pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
In October 1975, five Australian newsmen from Channel 7 and Channel 9 were sent to East Timor, to report on the conflict there and investigate evidence that Indonesia had plans to invade the tiny nation. But the journalists did not live to tell their story and the circumstances of their deaths have been mired in secrecy, denial and cover-up, until now.
In this special edition of Under Investigation, Liz Hayes is joined by a distinguished team of experts, uncovering and analysing top-secret documents, exposing what the Australian government knew and didn’t do when the Balibo Five were murdered by Indonesian special forces. Those responsible have never faced justice.
Hayes’ gripping exposé reveals the dramatic and deadly countdown playing out behind the scenes between top Indonesian and Australian officials, as the Balibo Five filed their news reports from East Timor. Secret cables and communiques chillingly tell of what was known as the journalists’ lives were edging closer to danger, and what experts on UI’s special investigation describe as “the greatest cover-up in Australian political history” that followed.
“Even now,” says host Liz Hayes, “there are still secrets about what happened to the Balibo Five being kept from the Australian people.”
“The Secrets of Balibo” features footage of the journalists’ final reports, including from Channel 7 reporter Greg Shackleton who was moved to tears by the plight of the East Timorese, just days before they were executed.
Joining Hayes at the War Table are Professor Clinton Fernandes, a former Army intelligence analyst and historian; Amanda Vanstone AO, a former Ambassador and Federal Minister with special insight into how governments operate behind closed doors; Lurdes Pires, a fierce activist for East Timor who met the journalists before she fled the violence, escaping to Australia; and John Milkins, the son of Gary Cunningham, one of the Balibo Five, and Chair of the memorial Balibo House Trust.
“I was left at times in disbelief by what I heard,” says Hayes. “I can only imagine how devastated the families of the Balibo Five must have been, particularly when it became clear the newsmen could have been saved.” “The Secrets of Balibo”: a special edition of Under Investigation with Liz Hayes, tomorrow at 8.40pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
I think the new season will start on January 29, right after the return of Married at First Sight.

Yes I got the prediction wrong.
Big Miracles will take the post-MAFS timeslot next Monday, February 5, and The Hundred will follow MAFS on February 6. So it seems that Under Investigation will go to Wednesday nights.
