Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,989 --> 00:00:03,189
Australia's best days are ahead of us.
2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:04,520
We live in the best
country in the world.
3
00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:06,910
- No asterisks, no footnotes.
- From road to rail...
4
00:00:06,921 --> 00:00:10,210
- We are in the age of infrastructure.
- The dawn of a new era.
5
00:00:10,221 --> 00:00:12,240
- The great Australian dream.
- To build a better future.
6
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,125
We're spending more than any
government has ever spent.
7
00:00:15,142 --> 00:00:17,227
- Money splashed around.
- Splashed more cash.
8
00:00:17,238 --> 00:00:19,475
- The cash splash.
- It's big money in anyone's language.
9
00:00:19,486 --> 00:00:21,611
- This is a nation-building...
- Funds from the nation-building...
10
00:00:21,622 --> 00:00:23,222
- ... nation-building...
- ... nation-building...
11
00:00:23,233 --> 00:00:24,353
Nation-building.
12
00:00:25,813 --> 00:00:28,188
VOICEOVER: Consisting
of 14 sound stages,
13
00:00:28,199 --> 00:00:30,889
offices, construction space, parking,
14
00:00:30,900 --> 00:00:32,880
set storage and other amenities,
15
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:37,520
this $2 billion studio complex
is set to be a game changer
16
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,780
for both overseas and
homegrown productions.
17
00:00:40,791 --> 00:00:45,116
So get set to roll on
Hollywood Down Under.
18
00:00:45,433 --> 00:00:47,960
- (BOTH LAUGH)
- Well?
19
00:00:47,971 --> 00:00:50,661
- Wow! It's, uh...
- BRAD: It's amazing, isn't it?
20
00:00:50,672 --> 00:00:53,056
I mean, they've still got to
add more people, palm trees.
21
00:00:53,067 --> 00:00:55,475
There's a whole lagoon complex
out the back. It'll be huge.
22
00:00:55,486 --> 00:00:57,100
Yeah, 5,000 hectares.
23
00:00:57,111 --> 00:00:59,071
Yeah, I've got a lot of people
to thank. It was a team effort.
24
00:00:59,071 --> 00:01:00,810
- Hollywood Down Under.
- That was mine.
25
00:01:00,821 --> 00:01:02,080
We're getting very positive feedback.
26
00:01:02,091 --> 00:01:05,427
And it's everything that matters to
me... jobs, regional development.
27
00:01:05,438 --> 00:01:07,034
- The arts.
- Sure.
28
00:01:07,045 --> 00:01:09,297
I must say, it's a little
more advanced than I realised.
29
00:01:09,308 --> 00:01:11,668
These streaming giants,
they're super-keen.
30
00:01:11,679 --> 00:01:13,774
- Are you already in meetings?
- Just the usual back-and-forths.
31
00:01:13,785 --> 00:01:15,671
'Cause we're still working with
Treasury and Finance on the old...
32
00:01:15,682 --> 00:01:17,961
- Hey. Tony, it's early days.
- Yeah, not that early.
33
00:01:17,972 --> 00:01:19,523
- BRAD: I told you about the launch?
- No? The launch?
34
00:01:19,534 --> 00:01:21,149
BRAD: Well, down the track,
but we're thinking about
35
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,200
flying in some pretty
big names, like, um...
36
00:01:24,599 --> 00:01:25,679
Who's the one with the hammer?
37
00:01:25,679 --> 00:01:27,079
- Scott Cam?
- No.
38
00:01:27,079 --> 00:01:29,359
- The... Hemsworth.
- I'll check.
39
00:01:29,658 --> 00:01:31,599
Anyway, obviously, early days, but...
40
00:01:31,599 --> 00:01:33,866
I wonder if you mind if I cast
an eye over these latest figures.
41
00:01:33,877 --> 00:01:34,879
- BRAD: Absolutely.
- Yeah.
42
00:01:34,890 --> 00:01:37,668
Absolutely. And if you want to
go bigger, we can talk about that.
43
00:01:37,679 --> 00:01:39,184
'Cause this is the sort
of thing that really...
44
00:01:39,195 --> 00:01:41,755
No, no, in terms of the due
diligence we normally do in the...
45
00:01:41,766 --> 00:01:43,446
- BRAD: Oh, yeah, of course.
- Yeah.
46
00:01:43,457 --> 00:01:44,918
Any tweaks you want to
make, let's hear 'em.
47
00:01:44,929 --> 00:01:46,214
- Yep.
- MAN: It WAS Chris Hemsworth.
48
00:01:46,225 --> 00:01:48,163
Oh, I knew it! (LAUGHS)
49
00:01:48,174 --> 00:01:49,270
- BRAD: It's a funny movie.
- Chris.
50
00:01:49,281 --> 00:01:50,954
BRAD: Anyway. Exciting times.
51
00:01:50,965 --> 00:01:53,034
- How's it going?
- Good. You?
52
00:01:53,045 --> 00:01:55,938
A lot on. Now, why
did I write 'romesco'?
53
00:01:55,949 --> 00:01:57,628
- That's a sauce.
- JIM: Is it?
54
00:01:57,639 --> 00:01:58,715
Not 'UNESCO'?
55
00:01:58,726 --> 00:02:01,595
Oh, that's it. Bloody spell correct.
56
00:02:01,606 --> 00:02:03,724
They've sent us some sort of
report. Have you got a copy there?
57
00:02:03,735 --> 00:02:05,295
NAT: Oh. Um...
58
00:02:05,748 --> 00:02:08,708
"An Interim Declaration
on the Great Barrier Reef".
59
00:02:08,719 --> 00:02:11,393
- You read it?
- Didn't have to. PM threw a copy at me.
60
00:02:11,404 --> 00:02:13,433
- So it's not great?
- Can you have a look?
61
00:02:13,444 --> 00:02:15,604
- It's not really our area, Jim.
- What if we bring in Rhonda?
62
00:02:15,615 --> 00:02:18,083
- It's not really her area either.
- JIM: Ash?
63
00:02:18,094 --> 00:02:21,134
- Not mine.
- Between the three of you.
64
00:02:21,239 --> 00:02:23,511
I've just got a meeting
I have to knock off.
65
00:02:23,522 --> 00:02:25,155
Uh, who's August?
66
00:02:25,166 --> 00:02:26,968
- Is it a meeting IN August?
- JIM: No.
67
00:02:26,979 --> 00:02:29,179
I've added a thumbs-down emoji.
68
00:02:29,239 --> 00:02:30,583
- AUKUS.
- JIM: Oh!
69
00:02:30,594 --> 00:02:32,734
That's it. This new spell correct.
70
00:02:32,745 --> 00:02:34,625
Never update your phone.
71
00:02:39,439 --> 00:02:40,726
I don't know who you're talking about.
72
00:02:40,737 --> 00:02:43,308
- Linda. Diversity and inclusion.
- Oh, Linda.
73
00:02:43,319 --> 00:02:45,448
- Why does she want to see me?
- There's been an issue.
74
00:02:45,459 --> 00:02:47,248
- I thought you said a concern.
- Could be both.
75
00:02:47,259 --> 00:02:49,299
- Who's it about?
- Them.
76
00:02:49,419 --> 00:02:51,735
- What's the issue?
- It's actually a complaint.
77
00:02:51,746 --> 00:02:52,925
- Can you set up a meeting?
- I'll set up a meeting.
78
00:02:52,936 --> 00:02:55,497
- And what are they doing?
- It's for our TikTok account.
79
00:02:55,508 --> 00:02:56,775
And why are we starting
a TikTok account?
80
00:02:56,786 --> 00:02:59,148
We're hoping it might attract
people to come and work here.
81
00:02:59,159 --> 00:03:01,429
I thought that's what we got
the table tennis table for.
82
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:02,582
- Yeah.
- You wanted a word?
83
00:03:02,593 --> 00:03:05,028
- Oh, yeah. This film studio thing.
- Hollywood Down Under?
84
00:03:05,039 --> 00:03:07,385
Is it true that Ryan
Reynolds might be coming out?
85
00:03:07,396 --> 00:03:08,888
- Katie.
- JIM: Well done, mate.
86
00:03:08,899 --> 00:03:09,946
You're in his good books.
87
00:03:09,957 --> 00:03:11,908
We recommended location incentives,
88
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,919
not a huge studio complex.
89
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,521
- But you didn't rule it out.
- Didn't have a chance.
90
00:03:15,532 --> 00:03:17,144
I don't know where this
latest version came from.
91
00:03:17,155 --> 00:03:18,195
It needs a ton of work.
92
00:03:18,206 --> 00:03:19,848
- You said tweaks.
- HE said tweaks.
93
00:03:19,859 --> 00:03:21,339
He's been chucking in
all these sweeteners...
94
00:03:21,350 --> 00:03:24,188
tax breaks, producer offsets,
access to public lands.
95
00:03:24,199 --> 00:03:26,948
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Let's
not get lost in the weeds.
96
00:03:26,959 --> 00:03:29,394
- Isn't that our job?
- I reckon we stick to tweaks.
97
00:03:29,405 --> 00:03:31,239
What happens when the Aussie
dollar goes through the roof?
98
00:03:31,239 --> 00:03:33,159
These overseas studios just walk away.
99
00:03:33,159 --> 00:03:35,319
Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.
100
00:03:35,319 --> 00:03:36,679
Who said anything about good?
101
00:03:36,679 --> 00:03:39,022
The only failure is in not trying.
102
00:03:39,033 --> 00:03:41,454
- Did you just get a desk calendar?
- It came with the update.
103
00:03:41,465 --> 00:03:42,668
You get a quote a day.
104
00:03:42,679 --> 00:03:44,992
- "A journey of 1,000 miles starts..."
- I need to speak to him.
105
00:03:45,003 --> 00:03:47,788
Katie! Can you see if the
Minister's free for a meeting?
106
00:03:47,799 --> 00:03:49,621
- Tell him it's about the film studios.
- Oh. Sure.
107
00:03:49,632 --> 00:03:52,188
Just try not to rain on his
parade. He needs a big announcement.
108
00:03:52,199 --> 00:03:55,134
The last big announcement cost
us a half a billion dollars.
109
00:03:55,145 --> 00:03:57,771
The bloody pandemic ended!
It was just bad luck.
110
00:03:57,782 --> 00:03:59,694
- We've got to get this thing right.
- It's early days.
111
00:03:59,705 --> 00:04:00,851
He's talking about a launch.
112
00:04:00,862 --> 00:04:02,728
The Minister can do
first thing tomorrow.
113
00:04:02,739 --> 00:04:04,065
Ooh, that was quick.
114
00:04:04,076 --> 00:04:05,813
- Whoo-hoo!
- What are you doing?
115
00:04:05,824 --> 00:04:07,544
Generating content. You
want to give us a fist pump?
116
00:04:07,561 --> 00:04:09,217
- No.
- We'll cut it there.
117
00:04:09,663 --> 00:04:12,199
"Unless the Australian
government takes immediate action,
118
00:04:12,199 --> 00:04:14,079
the World Heritage
Committee will have no choice
119
00:04:14,079 --> 00:04:17,023
but to declare the Great
Barrier Reef as 'in danger'."
120
00:04:17,034 --> 00:04:18,422
Who do these people think they are,
121
00:04:18,433 --> 00:04:20,395
sticking their nose in
other countries' business?
122
00:04:20,406 --> 00:04:21,742
I think that's how the UN works.
123
00:04:21,753 --> 00:04:23,602
Sitting in their ivory
tower in New York.
124
00:04:23,613 --> 00:04:25,493
UNESCO's in Paris.
125
00:04:25,559 --> 00:04:27,159
So how does this reef
grading thing work?
126
00:04:27,159 --> 00:04:29,648
Well, right now, it's
ranked as 'vulnerable',
127
00:04:29,659 --> 00:04:31,308
and the next level is "in danger".
128
00:04:31,319 --> 00:04:33,776
- And then?
- I suspect Greta Thunberg shows up.
129
00:04:33,787 --> 00:04:36,642
- (LAUGHS)
- Alright.
130
00:04:36,653 --> 00:04:38,259
We need something to
get them off our backs.
131
00:04:38,270 --> 00:04:40,868
- Okay. What have we done in the past?
- It's never-ending.
132
00:04:40,879 --> 00:04:43,439
Thrown money around,
lobbied, called in favours,
133
00:04:43,439 --> 00:04:45,474
threatened some of the weaker delegates.
134
00:04:45,485 --> 00:04:46,919
- You're not writing this down.
- I am.
135
00:04:46,919 --> 00:04:49,823
I meant, what have we done in
terms of protecting the reef?
136
00:04:49,834 --> 00:04:52,926
Who knows? But whatever it
was, apparently, not enough.
137
00:04:52,937 --> 00:04:56,199
Great. And put the milk down.
Make sure we can see the cup.
138
00:04:56,210 --> 00:04:57,773
Looking good.
139
00:04:57,784 --> 00:04:59,344
And action.
140
00:05:00,115 --> 00:05:02,119
Ah! I needed that.
141
00:05:02,119 --> 00:05:03,967
Cut! Let me just check that back.
142
00:05:03,978 --> 00:05:05,234
- Is this for our TikTok?
- Mm-hm.
143
00:05:05,245 --> 00:05:08,148
- #adayinthelife. People love it.
- Courtney making a cup of tea?
144
00:05:08,159 --> 00:05:09,959
Yeah. Once we speed it up
and add some music. Mmm.
145
00:05:09,959 --> 00:05:11,638
It'll still be Courtney
making a cup of tea.
146
00:05:11,649 --> 00:05:13,319
Actually, can I grab
some stuff with you later?
147
00:05:13,319 --> 00:05:15,519
- Bit busy today.
- Where are you going?
148
00:05:15,519 --> 00:05:17,005
I'm gonna follow along.
149
00:05:17,016 --> 00:05:18,902
Keep walking. Where
are we going, Courtney?
150
00:05:18,913 --> 00:05:20,586
The toilet. We'll cut it there.
151
00:05:23,159 --> 00:05:24,605
TONY: Sorry, Linda. Let
me get this straight.
152
00:05:24,616 --> 00:05:27,018
- There's a problem with that photo?
- More a concern.
153
00:05:27,029 --> 00:05:28,688
- Or issue.
- Exactly.
154
00:05:28,699 --> 00:05:30,508
Brian's assisting me with this audit.
155
00:05:30,519 --> 00:05:33,781
An audit? Yeah. Um, so... has
there been an actual complaint?
156
00:05:33,792 --> 00:05:34,923
- Not as yet.
- So...
157
00:05:34,934 --> 00:05:36,094
But the potential's there.
158
00:05:36,105 --> 00:05:37,808
It's important we stay
ahead of the curve.
159
00:05:37,819 --> 00:05:39,174
Then what is the potential issue?
160
00:05:39,185 --> 00:05:40,734
- Or concern.
- Not obvious?
161
00:05:40,745 --> 00:05:43,375
Uh, group of people with a common goal.
162
00:05:43,386 --> 00:05:45,839
- LINDA: And all men.
- Men's rowing eight.
163
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,639
- LINDA: Is that the right message?
- 'Teamwork'?
164
00:05:47,639 --> 00:05:50,858
A group of white entitled
upper-middle-class males.
165
00:05:50,869 --> 00:05:53,421
- None taken.
- Tony, you're the CEO.
166
00:05:53,508 --> 00:05:55,668
What's on your wall
reflects the tone and ethos
167
00:05:55,679 --> 00:05:57,688
of our entire organisation.
168
00:05:57,699 --> 00:06:00,059
- Alright. What do you want done?
- There's several options.
169
00:06:00,070 --> 00:06:01,694
You could relocate the
offending artwork...
170
00:06:01,705 --> 00:06:02,945
It hasn't offended yet, but...
171
00:06:02,956 --> 00:06:04,899
... to a private space,
such as your home.
172
00:06:04,910 --> 00:06:07,468
Oh. I could put them with
my old Big M calendars.
173
00:06:07,479 --> 00:06:09,471
- (LAUGHS)
- Go on.
174
00:06:09,482 --> 00:06:11,430
You could retain the work in situ
175
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,816
- but with an explanatory plaque.
- A plaque?
176
00:06:13,827 --> 00:06:17,301
Noting its patriarchal and
exclusionary underpinnings.
177
00:06:17,312 --> 00:06:18,312
Or?
178
00:06:18,323 --> 00:06:20,805
Brian could help you replace
it with something more suitable.
179
00:06:20,816 --> 00:06:22,756
- Done.
- In situations such as this...
180
00:06:22,767 --> 00:06:25,188
Totally agree, Linda. It'll
be gone by this afternoon.
181
00:06:25,199 --> 00:06:26,233
Thanks for dropping by.
182
00:06:26,244 --> 00:06:28,364
I think it's important
we have the conversation.
183
00:06:28,375 --> 00:06:30,125
It felt like a lecture,
but we've had it.
184
00:06:30,136 --> 00:06:34,068
'Beer-battered'. What in
God's name could that be?
185
00:06:34,079 --> 00:06:36,025
Could it have been "Big Battery"?
186
00:06:36,036 --> 00:06:38,796
- Oh! You're good at this.
- NAT: Shall we keep going?
187
00:06:38,807 --> 00:06:40,829
Now it's writing "Bill bartending".
188
00:06:40,840 --> 00:06:42,208
Uh, sorry. Keep going.
189
00:06:42,219 --> 00:06:45,779
So, restoration projects. Water
quality monitoring upgrades.
190
00:06:45,790 --> 00:06:48,011
Increased funding for
the Marine Park Authority.
191
00:06:48,022 --> 00:06:50,946
- A new eco-research institute.
- These are fantastic!
192
00:06:50,957 --> 00:06:52,348
- First-rate.
- Let's do 'em all!
193
00:06:52,359 --> 00:06:54,719
Nope. These are proposals we
submitted to UNESCO last time.
194
00:06:54,719 --> 00:06:56,479
So, what are they complaining about?
195
00:06:56,479 --> 00:06:59,319
- The reef hasn't improved.
- Oh! Talk about ingratitude.
196
00:06:59,319 --> 00:07:00,980
Where's the "Merci beaucoup"?
197
00:07:00,991 --> 00:07:04,749
Is there any chance we could do
a redraft and resubmit that thing?
198
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:05,802
I think they'd notice.
199
00:07:05,813 --> 00:07:06,976
- RHONDA: I didn't.
- JIM: Me neither.
200
00:07:06,987 --> 00:07:08,089
What about an updated version...
201
00:07:08,100 --> 00:07:10,028
- No.
- ... with a foreword from Bindi Irwin?
202
00:07:10,039 --> 00:07:12,399
- We should invite her to the launch.
- NAT: What launch?
203
00:07:12,410 --> 00:07:14,010
Seriously, I don't know
what more we can do.
204
00:07:14,021 --> 00:07:15,228
- Fix the reef?
- Oh!
205
00:07:15,239 --> 00:07:18,074
- It's never-ending with these people.
- Maybe we need fresh ideas.
206
00:07:18,085 --> 00:07:19,925
Should we loop the Environment
Minister in on this?
207
00:07:19,936 --> 00:07:21,753
- No, I wouldn't have thought so.
- No, not really their strength.
208
00:07:21,764 --> 00:07:25,297
- No. Could we discredit this mob?
- What?
209
00:07:25,308 --> 00:07:27,087
- Punch back.
- At UNESCO?
210
00:07:27,098 --> 00:07:29,362
Well, we're yet to hear a
decent suggestion from you.
211
00:07:29,373 --> 00:07:31,453
I was thinking we should
maybe have a chat with them.
212
00:07:31,464 --> 00:07:34,048
- Take 'em on, get in their faces.
- No. Find out what they want.
213
00:07:34,059 --> 00:07:37,059
- Sure. Then give it to 'em.
- (PHONE CHIMES)
214
00:07:37,125 --> 00:07:40,277
Oop! What's "Qantas 930"?
215
00:07:40,733 --> 00:07:42,940
"Watch Q+A at 9:30."
216
00:07:43,004 --> 00:07:44,853
Oh! I bet you're good at Wordle.
217
00:07:45,712 --> 00:07:48,381
WOMAN: Hollywood stars have been
making their way Down Under...
218
00:07:48,392 --> 00:07:50,828
WOMAN 2: ... for a new slice
of the Aussiewood pie.
219
00:07:50,839 --> 00:07:53,199
WOMAN 3: With confirmation of
plans to build a movie studio...
220
00:07:53,199 --> 00:07:55,679
MAN: The vision that has been put
forward is one that is exciting.
221
00:07:55,679 --> 00:07:58,358
- WOMAN: It helps generate jobs.
- WOMAN 2: Protects Australian talent.
222
00:07:58,369 --> 00:07:59,820
MAN: It's putting us on
the world cultural map.
223
00:07:59,831 --> 00:08:02,108
WOMAN: ... could soon be
rolling out the red carpet
224
00:08:02,119 --> 00:08:04,839
for some big-budget blockbusters.
225
00:08:05,284 --> 00:08:06,927
The Prime Minister just retweeted it.
226
00:08:06,938 --> 00:08:08,899
- It's a team effort.
- #Aussiewood.
227
00:08:08,910 --> 00:08:10,874
- That was mine.
- We'll give it a bump on OUR socials.
228
00:08:10,885 --> 00:08:12,421
You'll be on that red carpet too, Tony.
229
00:08:12,432 --> 00:08:14,141
- When you say red carpet...
- BRAD: The launch.
230
00:08:14,152 --> 00:08:16,268
- I thought it was still early days.
- BRAD: It is.
231
00:08:16,459 --> 00:08:18,494
- But the submission's going to Cabinet?
- Oh, that's not till...
232
00:08:18,504 --> 00:08:19,647
- Friday.
- Days away.
233
00:08:19,658 --> 00:08:21,915
I was wondering, before that
happens, whether we could go over
234
00:08:21,926 --> 00:08:23,464
a few specific details.
235
00:08:23,475 --> 00:08:25,243
- So you've had a look? Excellent.
- I have, Minister.
236
00:08:25,254 --> 00:08:28,502
It's this sort of initiative and
the NBA, that is the sort of...
237
00:08:29,039 --> 00:08:30,919
'CoPro' we're chasing.
238
00:08:30,919 --> 00:08:33,319
(BOTH LAUGH)
239
00:08:33,319 --> 00:08:36,266
It's just that there...
there were a few issues.
240
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:38,694
- Issues?
- TONY: Not issues. Um...
241
00:08:38,705 --> 00:08:39,961
- Concerns?
- Questions.
242
00:08:39,972 --> 00:08:41,988
About our exposure to potential risk.
243
00:08:41,999 --> 00:08:44,522
And careful how you google 'Aussiewood'.
244
00:08:44,785 --> 00:08:46,748
The... the response we've been getting
245
00:08:46,759 --> 00:08:48,359
has been overwhelmingly positive.
246
00:08:48,359 --> 00:08:50,239
Very positive, but, as
we've pointed out before,
247
00:08:50,239 --> 00:08:52,713
you are gifting a vast
area of public land.
248
00:08:52,724 --> 00:08:54,124
- Leasing.
- 99 years.
249
00:08:54,135 --> 00:08:55,561
- Still leasing.
- And offering subsidies.
250
00:08:55,572 --> 00:08:57,412
- Rebates.
- Along with significant tax breaks.
251
00:08:57,423 --> 00:08:58,863
- Offsets.
- And all those sweeteners.
252
00:08:58,874 --> 00:08:59,962
- Incentives.
- Okay!
253
00:08:59,973 --> 00:09:02,173
So the point is...
254
00:09:02,799 --> 00:09:05,919
- you want to make some tweaks.
- Uh, the point is, I think we should stop.
255
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,119
Uh, uh... take the time to, um...
256
00:09:11,119 --> 00:09:13,233
- Tweak?
- Uh, get this right.
257
00:09:13,244 --> 00:09:15,924
Doesn't sound like a tweak.
258
00:09:16,052 --> 00:09:17,948
You know what? Let's set up a meeting.
259
00:09:17,959 --> 00:09:19,197
- We're in a meeting.
- Get-together.
260
00:09:19,208 --> 00:09:20,465
- Hear more of your thoughts.
- I've got some thoughts.
261
00:09:20,476 --> 00:09:21,768
- Whenever suits.
- TONY: Now?
262
00:09:21,779 --> 00:09:23,095
We've got to dash.
263
00:09:23,106 --> 00:09:25,666
We've got that, uh, thing.
264
00:09:26,252 --> 00:09:27,625
BRAD: We do.
265
00:09:27,636 --> 00:09:29,396
- TONY: Oh.
- Oh, thank you.
266
00:09:32,999 --> 00:09:34,505
What thing?
267
00:09:37,719 --> 00:09:41,359
- We'll update the website...
- NAT: Yeah. That's good.
268
00:09:41,359 --> 00:09:44,980
Alright. I've spoken
to someone at the CSIRO.
269
00:09:45,139 --> 00:09:46,779
Smart coral.
270
00:09:46,790 --> 00:09:48,610
- What does that mean?
- They weren't sure either.
271
00:09:48,621 --> 00:09:50,548
Was this a scientist or a media adviser?
272
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,239
RHONDA: Who cares? Could
we throw some money at it?
273
00:09:52,239 --> 00:09:55,919
- If we knew what it was.
- It's smart... coral.
274
00:09:55,919 --> 00:09:57,959
- You've just added a full stop.
- Give 'em a research grant.
275
00:09:57,959 --> 00:09:59,679
Let them work out the rest.
276
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:01,568
- What's going on there?
- NAT: Oh, don't ask.
277
00:10:01,579 --> 00:10:04,174
Oh. Anyway.
We've set up a chat with UNESCO.
278
00:10:04,359 --> 00:10:06,209
Scientist or media adviser?
279
00:10:13,192 --> 00:10:14,735
It looks like we're good to go.
280
00:10:14,746 --> 00:10:16,866
- And it's Olaf Olafson?
- Yep.
281
00:10:16,877 --> 00:10:20,117
Special rapporteur with the
World Heritage Committee.
282
00:10:20,402 --> 00:10:23,188
Why do all Scandinavians look
like they just got out of a sauna?
283
00:10:23,199 --> 00:10:25,979
- I don't know.
- Alright. Take us off mute.
284
00:10:26,105 --> 00:10:27,436
I can hear you fine.
285
00:10:27,447 --> 00:10:30,718
Uh... Mr Olafson. Happy to proceed?
286
00:10:30,729 --> 00:10:34,578
Yes, so, you wish to
discuss our upcoming report?
287
00:10:34,589 --> 00:10:36,309
I'll jump straight to the point.
288
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,428
In order to avoid the Great Barrier
Reef being declared "in danger",
289
00:10:39,439 --> 00:10:41,199
what would UNESCO need to see?
290
00:10:41,199 --> 00:10:44,955
Clear evidence that Australia
was taking genuine and effective
291
00:10:44,966 --> 00:10:47,639
measures to improve
the health of the reef.
292
00:10:47,639 --> 00:10:50,639
So if I was to mention things
like restoration projects,
293
00:10:50,639 --> 00:10:53,479
water quality upgrades,
increased funding...
294
00:10:53,479 --> 00:10:56,519
I would say these were
in your last submission.
295
00:10:56,672 --> 00:10:58,379
- No?
- He DID notice.
296
00:10:58,390 --> 00:10:59,407
- I beg your pardon?
- Nothing!
297
00:10:59,418 --> 00:11:01,941
Uh, so UNESCO would
need to see new measures.
298
00:11:01,952 --> 00:11:03,428
OLAF: Effective measures.
299
00:11:03,439 --> 00:11:05,799
Not just setting up new organisations,
300
00:11:05,799 --> 00:11:10,079
announcing the same old initiatives,
websites, school programs.
301
00:11:10,079 --> 00:11:11,356
Window-dressing.
302
00:11:11,367 --> 00:11:13,566
- Smart coral?
- OLAF: What is that?
303
00:11:13,577 --> 00:11:14,859
Early stages.
304
00:11:14,870 --> 00:11:17,150
You know, there is a
saying in my country.
305
00:11:17,161 --> 00:11:19,641
(SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
306
00:11:19,652 --> 00:11:22,141
- (LAUGHS)
- OLAF: You speak Norwegian?
307
00:11:22,152 --> 00:11:23,681
Oh, it just sounded funny.
308
00:11:23,692 --> 00:11:26,135
It means "You must act quickly,
309
00:11:26,146 --> 00:11:29,268
much like the early
bird pursuing a worm."
310
00:11:29,279 --> 00:11:30,894
ASHAN: I think it's better in Norwegian.
311
00:11:30,905 --> 00:11:31,905
NAT: Understood.
312
00:11:31,916 --> 00:11:35,153
Alright, Mr Olafson, we
really appreciate your time.
313
00:11:35,164 --> 00:11:36,844
It is my pleasure.
314
00:11:38,306 --> 00:11:40,386
- Well, he was a barrel of laughs.
- Mmm.
315
00:11:40,397 --> 00:11:42,637
OLAF: And if there is
anything else you need...
316
00:11:44,032 --> 00:11:46,248
WOMAN: We begin today with
the Great Barrier Reef.
317
00:11:46,259 --> 00:11:47,699
WOMAN 2: It's about taking action now.
318
00:11:47,710 --> 00:11:49,470
MAN: The World Heritage Site in danger.
319
00:11:49,481 --> 00:11:51,721
WOMAN: Progress IS being
made to address the concerns.
320
00:11:51,732 --> 00:11:54,532
- WOMAN 2: The reef is a sinking ship.
- WOMAN 3: Know how important it is.
321
00:11:56,799 --> 00:11:59,159
(FUNKY MUSIC)
322
00:12:04,879 --> 00:12:07,199
Mmm! I needed that.
323
00:12:08,426 --> 00:12:10,711
- And people like this stuff?
- 3,000 likes.
324
00:12:10,722 --> 00:12:13,599
- Courtney making a cup of tea?
- Her make-up tips get even more.
325
00:12:13,599 --> 00:12:15,039
I still don't know what's in it for us.
326
00:12:15,039 --> 00:12:17,278
It's all about engagement
with potential employees.
327
00:12:17,289 --> 00:12:19,919
If we don't have a social media
presence, we get left behind.
328
00:12:19,919 --> 00:12:23,119
- Is it working?
- Mm-hm. 843 comments.
329

"Where did you get that
top?" "Cool haircut, sister."

00:12:27,599 --> 00:12:28,777
Yeah, but anything about working here?
332
00:12:28,788 --> 00:12:30,668
- I'll keep looking.
- What happened to your rowers?
333
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:31,994
Oh, someone had an issue.
334
00:12:32,005 --> 00:12:33,568
- It was a concern.
- More a complaint.
335
00:12:33,579 --> 00:12:35,551
- TONY: Thanks, Katie.
- So, what's up?
336
00:12:35,562 --> 00:12:36,922
I've had another look at this.
337
00:12:36,933 --> 00:12:38,755
Can you stop giving him Post-it notes?
338
00:12:38,766 --> 00:12:41,041
Hey, another one of those
streaming giants is interested.
339
00:12:41,052 --> 00:12:43,132
- 'Hevu' or 'Tuvo'.
- TONY: Tell you why.
340
00:12:43,143 --> 00:12:45,583
- It's something 'Plus'.
- This deal is so lopsided.
341
00:12:45,594 --> 00:12:48,108
We're giving millions to these
overseas production companies.
342
00:12:48,119 --> 00:12:50,411
- And what do we get in return?
- Hollywood Down Under!
343
00:12:50,422 --> 00:12:53,002
Two days of positive media
coverage and all the risk.
344
00:12:53,013 --> 00:12:56,426
Word is they could be filming
Fast and the Furious 7 out here.
345
00:12:56,437 --> 00:12:58,634
- Haven't they already filmed that?
- Might be a prequel.
346
00:12:58,645 --> 00:13:01,748
Whisper is Vin Diesel could be
looking at a place in Port Douglas.
347
00:13:01,759 --> 00:13:05,014
- We have to pause this thing.
- Tony, it's a major investment in the arts!
348
00:13:05,025 --> 00:13:07,105
Aussie crews, Aussie stories!
349
00:13:07,116 --> 00:13:09,215
- Aussie taxpayer dollars.
- But still Aussie.
350
00:13:09,226 --> 00:13:10,906
- TONY: I need to speak with him.
- Vin Diesel?
351
00:13:10,917 --> 00:13:12,154
- The Minister.
- JIM: You spoke with him!
352
00:13:12,165 --> 00:13:14,068
Again. Katie, any
word from the Minister?
353
00:13:14,079 --> 00:13:17,006
Yes, good news. He just
followed us on TikTok.
354
00:13:17,017 --> 00:13:18,385
The meeting. Oh.
355
00:13:18,396 --> 00:13:19,948
They said they'd have to get back to us.
356
00:13:19,959 --> 00:13:21,305
Yeah, a lot on.
357
00:13:21,316 --> 00:13:23,036
Not that much.
358
00:13:23,359 --> 00:13:24,481
Got your text.
359
00:13:24,492 --> 00:13:26,016
"Olaf Olafson".
360
00:13:26,134 --> 00:13:28,159
- Bloody spell correct.
- No, that's his name.
361
00:13:28,159 --> 00:13:30,168
- The guy from UNESCO?
- NAT: The Heritage Committee.
362
00:13:30,179 --> 00:13:31,299
- So you spoke with him?
- NAT: Yep.
363
00:13:31,310 --> 00:13:32,941
- Did you give it to him?
- Not exactly.
364
00:13:32,952 --> 00:13:35,358
- JIM: What did he say?
- (SPEAKS GIBBERISH)
365
00:13:35,369 --> 00:13:37,304
- JIM: What?
- "The early bird catches the worm."
366
00:13:37,315 --> 00:13:38,568
Oh, you got the same update as me.
367
00:13:38,579 --> 00:13:40,659
We have to act fast or
they'll vote against us.
368
00:13:40,670 --> 00:13:43,079
- It's worse than Eurovision.
- Okay. How do we change their mind?
369
00:13:43,079 --> 00:13:45,329
Their report identifies
a bunch of key issues.
370
00:13:45,340 --> 00:13:46,568
- Give us one.
- Climate change.
371
00:13:46,579 --> 00:13:48,281
Give us one we can do something about.
372
00:13:48,292 --> 00:13:49,974
- Water quality?
- JIM: We've already spent on that.
373
00:13:49,985 --> 00:13:53,148
What if we, say, introduced further
restrictions on land clearing?
374
00:13:53,159 --> 00:13:55,199
Oh, don't think I'd be
attacking our farmers.
375
00:13:55,199 --> 00:13:57,719
- We're not attacking them.
- Let's stay on Team Australia here.
376
00:13:57,719 --> 00:13:59,511
- What else?
- They mentioned commercial shipping.
377
00:13:59,522 --> 00:14:02,841
Wish they hadn't. Actually, you
can tell them it's under review.
378
00:14:02,852 --> 00:14:05,054
- They'll want more than that.
- I don't think they know WHAT they want.
379
00:14:05,065 --> 00:14:07,585
And punching back is definitely out?
380
00:14:08,144 --> 00:14:10,763
Tony, have you got a moment
to talk about office art?
381
00:14:10,774 --> 00:14:12,468
No. Have we heard
back from the Minister?
382
00:14:12,479 --> 00:14:14,975
His PA promised she'd get back
to us by the end of the day.
383
00:14:14,986 --> 00:14:16,834
- Oh, when was that?
- KATIE: Two days ago.
384
00:14:16,845 --> 00:14:19,858
She said he's busy in Canberra
with a parliamentary committee.
385
00:14:19,869 --> 00:14:22,308
- Is he?
- Brian's got some more options.
386
00:14:22,319 --> 00:14:23,594
What parliamentary committee?
387
00:14:23,605 --> 00:14:25,385
- BRIAN: There's rock climbers.
- Yep.
388
00:14:25,639 --> 00:14:27,880
- Tony, you're not even looking.
- Oh, sorry.
389
00:14:27,891 --> 00:14:30,091
Relay runners. They're gender-neutral.
390
00:14:30,102 --> 00:14:32,310
And very uncommon.
Not normally a mixed event.
391
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:33,641
BRIAN: Linda liked it.
392
00:14:33,652 --> 00:14:35,752
- Uh, marathon runner.
- Great.
393
00:14:35,879 --> 00:14:37,468
- You like that one?
- Yep. And she's a woman.
394
00:14:37,479 --> 00:14:39,615
And the caption is 'Empowering'.
395
00:14:39,626 --> 00:14:41,668
Done. Wise choice, Tony.
396
00:14:41,679 --> 00:14:43,559
Ah! He's at a film industry lunch.
397
00:14:43,559 --> 00:14:46,377
- With the parliamentary committee?
- With Cate Blanchett.
398
00:14:46,388 --> 00:14:48,887
(GASPS) Wow! #A-listlunch.
399
00:14:48,898 --> 00:14:50,216
No, I'm annoyed.
400
00:14:50,227 --> 00:14:51,347
Oh.
401
00:14:52,617 --> 00:14:55,159
So, mixed support for
those measures of yours.
402
00:14:55,170 --> 00:14:57,559
Land clearing? We can't
tighten up a few laws?
403
00:14:57,559 --> 00:14:59,353
Spoke to a wide range of stakeholders...
404
00:14:59,364 --> 00:15:01,759
pastoralists, graziers,
primary producers.
405
00:15:01,770 --> 00:15:03,650
- They're the same people.
- Mmm. A lot of pushback.
406
00:15:03,661 --> 00:15:06,273
- Commercial shipping?
- The industry IS open to a review.
407
00:15:06,284 --> 00:15:08,000
- Okay.
- RHONDA: From 2040.
408
00:15:08,423 --> 00:15:10,359
- That's ridiculous.
- They wanted 2050.
409
00:15:10,369 --> 00:15:12,519
- So, nothing?
- RHONDA: Let's not give up yet.
410
00:15:12,519 --> 00:15:15,178
Jim wants you to have a chat with...
411
00:15:15,779 --> 00:15:17,068
them.
412
00:15:17,079 --> 00:15:19,612
- The beef author?
- RHONDA: Could be anything.
413
00:15:19,852 --> 00:15:21,414
Reef Authority?
414
00:15:21,425 --> 00:15:22,588
Oh. That is a gift.
415
00:15:22,599 --> 00:15:24,559
The Great Barrier Reef
Management Authority?
416
00:15:24,559 --> 00:15:26,368
- That'd be it.
- BRIAN: I like it.
417
00:15:26,379 --> 00:15:28,188
Inspirational AND inclusive.
418
00:15:28,199 --> 00:15:29,799
Still prefer the rowers.
419
00:15:29,799 --> 00:15:31,797
- Oh, we've started a conversation.
- Yeah.
420
00:15:31,808 --> 00:15:33,559
Katie, any word from the Minister?
421
00:15:33,559 --> 00:15:35,439
His PA said they emailed us.
422
00:15:35,439 --> 00:15:37,679
- I haven't seen anything.
- Might have gone to junk mail.
423
00:15:37,679 --> 00:15:39,599
Why would a ministerial
email go to junk mail?
424
00:15:39,599 --> 00:15:41,981
- I'll check your spam folder.
- TONY: You know what I reckon?
425
00:15:41,992 --> 00:15:43,748
- It's not straight.
- We're in the freezer.
426
00:15:43,759 --> 00:15:46,217
He's heard something he doesn't
like and he's just shut us out.
427
00:15:46,228 --> 00:15:48,919
Tony, would you be interested
in 30% off car insurance?
428
00:15:48,919 --> 00:15:50,067
- What?
- I'll keep looking.
429
00:15:50,078 --> 00:15:52,588
Mind you, when this
studio thing pulls a hammy,
430
00:15:52,599 --> 00:15:55,132
- who's the first person he's gonna call?
- Cate Blanchett?
431
00:15:55,143 --> 00:15:57,250
Tony, you got a message on WhatsApp.
432
00:15:57,261 --> 00:15:59,392
Uh, "The Minister has left the group."
433
00:15:59,403 --> 00:16:00,631
- Oh.
- Tony.
434
00:16:00,642 --> 00:16:02,984
Interested in the next
revolution in walking shoes?
435
00:16:02,995 --> 00:16:04,849
- I'm looking for a ministerial email.
- Yeah.
436
00:16:04,860 --> 00:16:06,302
- I'll try Signal.
- TONY: Okay.
437
00:16:15,139 --> 00:16:17,788
- We've met before, haven't we?
- I used to work national parks.
438
00:16:17,799 --> 00:16:19,760
- That's it.
- Yeah. Then I got the big promotion.
439
00:16:19,771 --> 00:16:21,884
- They needed help with the reef.
- Oh. Do you have much experience?
440
00:16:21,895 --> 00:16:23,879
Oh, endangered species.
A lot of overlap there.
441
00:16:23,879 --> 00:16:26,245
Well, thanks for seeing
us at such short notice.
442
00:16:26,256 --> 00:16:27,919
Hey. That's what we're here to do, huh?
443
00:16:27,919 --> 00:16:30,166
- Keep the government happy.
- And protect the reef.
444
00:16:30,177 --> 00:16:31,457
Absolutely. Yeah.
445
00:16:31,468 --> 00:16:33,396
We've just got a few questions. Ash?
446
00:16:33,407 --> 00:16:34,983
What do you know about smart coral?
447
00:16:34,994 --> 00:16:36,722
- About UNESCO.
- Right.
448
00:16:36,733 --> 00:16:38,133
Uh, in response to their last report,
449
00:16:38,199 --> 00:16:40,181
the government really upped
its spending on the reef.
450
00:16:40,192 --> 00:16:43,028
- Ooh, yeah, they certainly did.
- And the authority was a beneficiary.
451
00:16:43,039 --> 00:16:44,999
- Mm-hm. Mm-hm.
- So, what's changed since then?
452
00:16:44,999 --> 00:16:47,759
Where do I start? We're leaps
and bounds ahead of where we were.
453
00:16:47,759 --> 00:16:50,039
- ASHAN: In terms of?
- Well, staffing numbers.
454
00:16:50,039 --> 00:16:51,236
We've got bigger office spaces.
455
00:16:51,247 --> 00:16:53,730
- We're running school programs now.
- Sounds like progress.
456
00:16:53,741 --> 00:16:55,145
But in terms of the reef?
457
00:16:55,156 --> 00:16:57,492
The what? What's changed out there?
458
00:16:57,973 --> 00:17:00,639
Oh! (LAUGHS) Uh, right.
I get the question now. Sorry.
459
00:17:00,639 --> 00:17:02,239
- Um... well, you see our boat?
- NAT: Yep.
460
00:17:02,239 --> 00:17:03,672
Used to be half that size.
461
00:17:03,683 --> 00:17:05,514
- Wow!
- Yeah, she's all tricked out now.
462
00:17:05,525 --> 00:17:08,751
- Got the latest technology.
- And how does that relate to the reef?
463
00:17:08,762 --> 00:17:10,668
Well, we can now tell within 24 hours
464
00:17:10,679 --> 00:17:14,643
when any single section
goes from poor to very poor.
465
00:17:14,654 --> 00:17:16,734
That's progress.
466
00:17:16,745 --> 00:17:20,348
Tony, I just spoke to the
Minister's PA, off the record.
467
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,469
- And?
- Vin Diesel's not buying a house here.
468
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,542
- (SIGHS)
- What about the meeting? I need to speak to him.
469
00:17:24,553 --> 00:17:26,595
KATIE: Oh. She said a whole
bunch of things have come up.
470
00:17:26,606 --> 00:17:28,414
- Really?
- He didn't mention it this morning.
471
00:17:28,425 --> 00:17:31,078
- You spoke to him?
- Briefly. It was just a follow-up chat.
472
00:17:31,089 --> 00:17:32,129
We're planning a TikTok.
473
00:17:32,140 --> 00:17:35,297
Oh, and there's been a
complaint, an actual one, about...
474
00:17:35,308 --> 00:17:36,772
Oh, you're kidding me. From who?
475
00:17:36,783 --> 00:17:38,623
- Linda.
- She's not even in our office.
476
00:17:38,652 --> 00:17:41,458
She says it portrays an
unrealistic female body image.
477
00:17:41,469 --> 00:17:43,788
- She approved it.
- Before she saw it.
478
00:17:43,799 --> 00:17:45,503
- She's so thin.
- She's a marathon runner.
479
00:17:45,514 --> 00:17:47,901
- Could be eating disorders.
- She's just run 42km.
480
00:17:47,912 --> 00:17:49,508
I'm guessing she's hungry.
481
00:17:49,519 --> 00:17:51,026
Scotty, what do you think of that photo?
482
00:17:51,037 --> 00:17:53,825
- Oh. Uh... what did Linda say?
- No, I'm asking you.
483
00:17:53,836 --> 00:17:55,444
- Are we starting a conversation?
- No.
484
00:17:55,455 --> 00:17:57,519
Oh, okay. Uh, let me think.
485
00:17:57,519 --> 00:17:59,727
No, don't go looking for
problems. It's not Where's Wally?
486
00:17:59,738 --> 00:18:02,841
- Can you see any issues?
- They're probably more concerns.
487
00:18:02,852 --> 00:18:04,759
Linda says we'd be safer
with something else.
488
00:18:04,759 --> 00:18:06,004
Yeah. Better ethos.
489
00:18:06,015 --> 00:18:07,527
- KATIE: Mmm.
- Alright, pick another sport.
490
00:18:07,538 --> 00:18:10,482
Not sport. It could
be considered ableist.
491
00:18:10,493 --> 00:18:11,716
Let's have a look.
492
00:18:11,727 --> 00:18:13,810
- Can you try the Minister again?
- Sure.
493

00:24:03,025 --> 00:24:06,888
"It may perpetuate heteronormative
gender stereotypes."
660
00:24:06,899 --> 00:24:08,941
- What?!
- He's leading and she's following.
661
00:24:08,952 --> 00:24:11,727
- Ah. And is it consensual?
- Oh, that's interesting.
662
00:24:11,738 --> 00:24:13,801
- KATIE: But I have some good news.
- The Minister called?
663
00:24:13,812 --> 00:24:15,788
Courtney's sister, Anika, is an artist,
664
00:24:15,799 --> 00:24:18,211
and she's offered to do
a painting for your wall.
665
00:24:18,222 --> 00:24:20,633
- Fine.
- And do we know where HER shoes were made?
666
00:24:20,712 --> 00:24:22,350
- Good point, Scotty.
- What?
667
00:24:22,361 --> 00:24:24,041
I really like the sound of them.
668
00:24:24,052 --> 00:24:25,438
Rescue the Reef.
669
00:24:25,449 --> 00:24:26,609
It's a kids charity.
670
00:24:26,620 --> 00:24:28,559
- Still, great name.
- Wonderful name.
671
00:24:28,570 --> 00:24:29,781
It's a school project
672
00:24:29,792 --> 00:24:32,680
that we came close to giving a
quarter of a billion dollars to.
673
00:24:32,691 --> 00:24:34,834
- Could we buy it off them?
- There's an idea!
674
00:24:34,845 --> 00:24:36,288
I could speak to their director.
675
00:24:36,299 --> 00:24:37,539
- Who's that?
- Amelia's mum.
676
00:24:37,550 --> 00:24:39,721
- And then what?
- Well, we'd keep the kids involved.
677
00:24:39,732 --> 00:24:41,330
Maybe get them to run some programs.
678
00:24:41,341 --> 00:24:42,528
- Such as?
- JIM: I don't know.
679
00:24:42,539 --> 00:24:45,243
See who can collect the most
crown-of-thorns starfish.
680
00:24:45,254 --> 00:24:46,999
Oh! Thorntember.
681
00:24:46,999 --> 00:24:47,999
Oh. Write that down.
682
00:24:47,999 --> 00:24:49,664
I think we need something
a bit more grown-up.
683
00:24:49,675 --> 00:24:53,410
Those kids mentioned their donations
are going to blue carbon projects.
684
00:24:53,421 --> 00:24:54,996
- RHONDA: Perfect.
- Do you know what that is?
685
00:24:55,007 --> 00:24:58,359
- Is it like smart coral?
- Restoring mangroves and seagrasses.
686
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,992
- Oh, gee, I like the sound of that.
- Mmm.
687
00:25:03,639 --> 00:25:04,879
(BEEP)
688
00:25:07,918 --> 00:25:09,439
- KATIE: Morning, Tony.
- Katie.
689
00:25:09,439 --> 00:25:11,199
We've finally got the
Minister's schedule,
690
00:25:11,199 --> 00:25:13,610
- and he'll be in the office tomorrow.
- To see me?
691
00:25:13,621 --> 00:25:15,421
He's seeing Scott.
They're filming a TikTok.
692
00:25:15,432 --> 00:25:17,028
- Uh-huh.
- And he's happy to dance.
693
00:25:17,039 --> 00:25:18,662
- Oh, is he?
- Oh, and good news.
694
00:25:18,673 --> 00:25:20,208
Your new artwork arrived.
695
00:25:20,219 --> 00:25:23,056
It's on recycled paper, sustainable ink.
696
00:25:23,067 --> 00:25:25,774
It's got a man AND a woman,
so no power imbalance.
697
00:25:25,785 --> 00:25:27,585
- Great.
- Mm-hm.
698
00:25:31,076 --> 00:25:32,331
TONY: Take it down.
699
00:25:32,342 --> 00:25:34,262
Really? Linda's fine with it.
700
00:25:34,486 --> 00:25:35,914
Take it down.
701
00:25:36,373 --> 00:25:37,887
I'll call Brian.
702
00:25:38,188 --> 00:25:39,188
Well...
703
00:25:39,199 --> 00:25:41,339
Rescue the Reef is ours.
704
00:25:41,350 --> 00:25:43,757
- You bought it off them?
- We made a substantial donation.
705
00:25:43,768 --> 00:25:45,975
And spoke to the principal.
They're both getting As.
706
00:25:45,986 --> 00:25:47,542
It is a great website.
707
00:25:47,553 --> 00:25:48,633
For Olaf.
708
00:25:48,644 --> 00:25:50,634
"Major funding for an
important grants body
709
00:25:50,645 --> 00:25:54,468
targeting blue carbon projects,
starfish removal, reef resilience."
710
00:25:54,479 --> 00:25:58,119
- And what's that?
- No idea. But I trust the girls.
711
00:26:00,407 --> 00:26:02,647
How's that supposed to inspire me?
712
00:26:02,658 --> 00:26:04,126
By not offending you.
713
00:26:04,137 --> 00:26:05,337
Good choice, Tony.
714
00:26:05,348 --> 00:26:06,998
- Thanks, Br...
- (KNOCK AT DOOR)
715
00:26:07,009 --> 00:26:08,283
- SCOTT: You heard?
- What?
716
00:26:08,294 --> 00:26:09,555
"Not so Tinseltown.
717
00:26:09,566 --> 00:26:12,308
Queensland's much-hyped new
film studios have hit a hurdle
718
00:26:12,319 --> 00:26:14,910
after news broke the
construction works could impact on
719
00:26:14,921 --> 00:26:17,945
- mangrove wetlands and the adjacent reef."
- Oh, you're kidding me.
720
00:26:17,956 --> 00:26:20,286
"Two teenage students from
a local Townsville school
721
00:26:20,297 --> 00:26:23,288
have been leading the protest
against the development."
722
00:26:23,299 --> 00:26:24,491
- KATIE: Tony?
- Yeah?
723
00:26:24,502 --> 00:26:26,078
The Minister's on line one.
724
00:26:26,352 --> 00:26:27,354
Thanks.

This?
727
00:26:39,039 --> 00:26:40,079
No.
728
00:26:40,384 --> 00:26:41,919
- This.
- Maybe.
729
00:26:42,372 --> 00:26:44,399
- This?
- I think that's upside down.
730
00:26:44,410 --> 00:26:45,690
Is it?
731
00:26:45,701 --> 00:26:47,421
No.
732
00:26:47,715 --> 00:26:49,447
Oh. Hang on. I think that's for Nat.
733
00:26:49,458 --> 00:26:50,758
I don't mind that.
734
00:26:53,839 --> 00:26:57,035
So, for our $250 million
investment, what'd we get?
735
00:26:57,046 --> 00:26:59,987
Well, UNESCO off our
backs. And this T-shirt.
736
00:27:03,879 --> 00:27:05,528
There's some positive
signs for the reef.
737
00:27:05,539 --> 00:27:06,799
A lot of activity.
738
00:27:06,810 --> 00:27:08,159
So the coral's regrowing?
739
00:27:08,363 --> 00:27:09,999
No, but rumour is
740
00:27:10,010 --> 00:27:12,787
they're shooting Pirates
of the Caribbean 6.
741
00:27:12,879 --> 00:27:15,016
- (GASPS)
- Didn't hear it from me.
742
00:27:16,792 --> 00:27:17,941
GIRLS: Hi.
743
00:27:17,952 --> 00:27:21,580
So, Amanda and Amelia,
tell us about Thorntember.
