1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:07,040
This programme deals with suicide
and contains some strong language
2
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:20,040
G'day.
3
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:21,440
Now, it's come to my attention
4
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:23,920
that some Americans still
don't know where Australia is.
5
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,120
Australia is in the midst of
an unprecedented tourism boom,
6
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:28,880
with Paul Hogan's US commercials
7
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,840
tempting hundreds of thousands
of Americans Down Under.
8
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:33,520
Did he make you want
to come to Australia?
9
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,840
Oh, of course.
He's very good-looking!
10
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:37,880
And last night, to cap it off,
11
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,720
the entertainer was officially
named Australian of the Year.
12
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:44,440
I'm really pleased that the
committee picked me because
13
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,920
I myself could never
decide who to give it to
14
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:48,760
between Allan Border
and Jeff Fenech.
15
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,000
But now at least they can...
16
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,680
SPEECH DISTORTS
17
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,520
Murray... Shit!
18
00:00:58,520 --> 00:00:59,640
We've got another copy?
19
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,240
Shit. Oh...
20
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,080
There's another copy of that speech.
21
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,400
Sorry, mate, I think
we've lost that grab.
22
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,400
That grab was the whole
point of the story!
23
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:19,960
Fuck!
24
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,120
Hey! Hey! I need to shoot a stand-up
right now. It's five to six.
25
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,240
Can you send a cameraman
and soundo, whoever's available,
26
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,920
tell them to meet me at the entrance
in front of reception.
27
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,160
Noelene, I need more
Paul Hogan footage.
28
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:33,880
Can you get some footage
of him on a movie
29
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,320
or behind the scenes wherever
he's working? What movie?
30
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:39,280
It doesn't matter as long as it says
"Paul Hogan, movie star." On it.
31
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,840
Thank you! Tim, Camera.
Mike, downstairs now. Now!

And we are on in six, five, four...
34
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,800
Good evening and welcome
to News at Six.
35
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,280
Hurry. Hurry up.
36
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:02,360

And, rolling.
39
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,440
And the new Australian of the Year
has an even bigger 1986 in store
40
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,200
with the release of his very first
fleature... Feature, feature film.
41
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,240
It's all right. Mate, try breathing.

And the new Australian of the Year
has an even bigger 1986 in...

00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,560
Sorry, that was a bit high.
That's all right.

LORRY RATTLES
48
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,840
Well, as Australia Day approaches,
communities across the nation
49
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,760
are preparing for parades,
carnivals and backyard barbecues.
50
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,040
The banks of the Yarra
will host a week-long festival
51
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,320
featuring everything
from damper baking
52
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,880
to the annual cooee competition.

00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,800

The only footage I could find of him
was at a movie premiere.
56
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,560
He's in black tie. It's in the
edit suite with Murray.
57
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,520
Fine, fine, fine. ..the banks of the
Yarra River, Australia Day cele...
58
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,240
Open up! You lost the Hogan grab?
I thought of another.
59
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,320
We can't do a story about
the Australian of the Year
60
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,440
without the bloody Australian
of the Year, OK?
61
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:09,600
This was all Dale's idea.
62
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,920
Australia is in the midst
of an unprecedented tourism boom
63
00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:14,720
with Paul Hogan's US commercials
64
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,560
tempting hundreds of thousands
of Americans Down Under.
65
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,480
Did he make you
want to come to Australia?
66
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,400
Oh, of course.
He's very good-looking!
67
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,280
And the new Australian of the Year
has an even bigger 1986 in store
68
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,640
with the release of his
very first feature film.
69
00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:31,920
Can the former Sydney Harbour Bridge
rigger conquer Hollywood?
70
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:34,640
Either way, it's shaping up
to be Hogan's year.
71
00:03:34,640 --> 00:03:36,520
Fair suck of the sauce bottle, boys.
72
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,400
Dale Jennings, News at Six.
73
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,120
Scientists are calling it
the Greenhouse Effect...
74
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,360
I actually think that ending
was better.
75
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,520
Predictions are that
the polar icecaps...
76
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:47,640
Mmm.
77
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,440
Yeah, good on ya, Dale.
..rise up to a metre.
78
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,000
Paul Greaves reports.
79
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:52,560
OK, here we go.
80
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,280
Hey, wasn't I... I thought I was
reading the Thatcher story.
81
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,280
That was a late change.
We are back. And three...
82
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:03,480
To world news now
83
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,800
and British PM Margaret Thatcher's
integrity is under question
84
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,000
in the wake of a damaging
leaked letter.
85
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,320
The latest polls showing
that nearly half the country
86
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,520
believe that Mrs Thatcher
should resign.
87
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,320
It's being described as
the worst crisis faced by...
88
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,000
SIGHING
You said it at the Christmas party.
89
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,720
You said it four times in November.
Christ, Helen!
90
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,280
You can't go off anything a bloke
says at a bloody Christmas party!
91
00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:33,240
You said that we could look at
one story every week
92
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,120
and we would call it a special
report. Look at! Look at!
93
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:37,880
A very deliberate use of words.
Look at!
94
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,000
You promised me that Thatcher story.
Instead I'm doing a puff piece...
95
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,640
DOOR SLAMS, MUFFLED ARGUING
96
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,000
..a sit-down with Andrew Peacock!
What more do you bloody want?
97
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,640
Did you even look at any
of the ideas I submitted?
98
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,200
Jean, hi.
99
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,080
Uh, I was pencilled in for
half-past six with Lindsay.
100
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,480
I'd give it another
quarter of an hour.
101
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,160
Er, yeah, but if now's not a good
time, I'm happy to delay.
102
00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:59,560
You're never going to
get a good time.
103
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,760
I mean, if he's not in
a good frame of mind.
104
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,520
You're never going to
get that, either.
105
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,160
Right.
106
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,640
You are not up to it, Helen!
I'll just...wait.
107
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,120
You parade around this place
like you're Barbara bloody Walters,
108
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,800
but you're not -
you're Helen Norville!
109
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,880
And let me tell you something,
Helen!
110
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,040
I've got 20 girls just like you
ready to go tomorrow!
111
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,680
Dennis? The tape you asked for.
112
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,560
Oh, Jesus wept.
113
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,000
He's free.
114
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:36,600
Great.
115
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:38,800
Thanks.
116
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,800
DALE CLEARS HIS THROAT
117
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,800
Uh, Lindsay? What do you want?
118
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,920
Oh, mate, yes. Er...Dale.
119
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,560
Listen, mate, you may have to
walk with me. I'm running late.
120
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:51,640
OK, sure. Yeah.
121
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,280
I just thought we could have a chat
122
00:05:53,280 --> 00:05:55,480
about the rehearsal tape
I filmed for the desk last year.
123
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,880
Did I watch it? Yes, you did,
and you said it went well
124
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,840
and perhaps I might get a crack
at some updates in the new year.
125
00:06:01,840 --> 00:06:03,960
Did I tell you this at the
Christmas party? Yeah.
126
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,000
Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah.
127
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,000
And you gave me some great feedback,
which I have been working on.
128
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,840
Yeah, I bet you have, mate.
129
00:06:09,840 --> 00:06:11,440
Night-night, Jean. Night-night.
130
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,240
I've been really working on my
presentation. I don't know
131
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,000
if you saw my Paul Hogan piece
today... Yes, mate, I saw it.
132
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,680
Look, the rosters
are pretty full at the moment
133
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,280
so why don't we say maybe Easter?
134
00:06:19,280 --> 00:06:21,200
Even if it was just one
morning update.
135
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:22,840
Just... Just one update.
136
00:06:22,840 --> 00:06:25,120
LINDSAY SIGHS
137
00:06:22,840 --> 00:06:25,120
Mate...
138
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,960
Newsreading - not for everyone.
Right. It's nothing personal.
139
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,440
It's just when the camera goes on
a particular sort of person,
140
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,520
the viewer feels very secure.
141
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,280
Like, look at Helen.
142
00:06:34,280 --> 00:06:37,680
You put a lens on her, she connects.
143
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,280
Huh.
144
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:41,520
But other people, nothing.
145
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:43,840
Is it a vocal thing?
146
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:46,280
Nah.
147
00:06:46,280 --> 00:06:48,280
Cos I have been working with
a vocal coach all summer.
148
00:06:48,280 --> 00:06:49,760
He actually worked with
Jack Thompson.
149
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,560
You want to get your money back,
Dale.
150
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,720
You don't sound anything like
Jack Thompson.
151
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,120
Mate, how well do you know Helen?
152
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,440
Um... We nod hello sometimes.
153
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,560
Then you know she's very, very set
on these special reports.
154
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,680
Right.
Yeah, so what I really need now
155
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,440
is a bloke with some chops to go
out with her, help her shoot,
156
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,240
help her put the story together.
You do this for me on Monday,
157
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,360
then maybe I can give you a shot
on an update on...
158
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:21,840
..Tuesday. That a deal?
159
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,840
Deal. But you gotta watch
yourself with her, OK?
160
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,000
Cos she's going to hit you with
a lot of shitty ideas
161
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,120
about cross-eyed single mothers and
Aids and Christ knows what else.
162
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:31,760
Your job is to bat her away.
163
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,800
OK. Ha! Great!
164
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,120
Uh, thanks so much, Lindsay.
165
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,720
Um, should we meet again
after the update to...
166
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:40,520
Goodnight!

00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,360
Tuesday morning.
173
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:28,800
I mean, it's just Tuesday
morning right now,
174
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,400
but if it goes well,
there will be more.
175
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,360
Am I allowed to tell people? Yes.
176
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:36,520
I gotta go. Bye.
177
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:45,520
CAR STEREO PLAYS:
178
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:45,520
# Kyrie Eleison, down
179
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:45,520
the road that I must follow
180
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:50,720
# Kyrie Eleison, through
the darkness of the night...
181
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:56,600
# Kyrie Eleison, where
I'm going, will you follow? #
182
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:02,760
# Kyrie Eleison, on a
highway in the light #
183
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,840
# Whoa-oh-oh-oh... #
184
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,400
MUSIC STOPS, TAPE REWINDS
185
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,760
Dale, it's your Uncle Cliff here.
186
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,880
Yeah, your mum just rang,
and we're thrilled for ya!
187
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,960
Um, anyway...
188
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,960
ANSWERING MACHINE BEEPS
189
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,760
Love, it's Mum again.
190
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,800
I know you told me, but,
191
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,440
was it the morning update
or the afternoon update?
192
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,120
Give me a ring.
193
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,120
ANSWERING MACHINE BEEPS
194
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,560
Hi, Dale.
195
00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:30,680
It's Adam here, from school.
196
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,560
I saw you on TV tonight, and, um,
I got your number from Ron Alsop.
197
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,360
I know I'm probably not
someone you'd want to see,
198
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,640
but even if I could just get
an address to write to you.
199
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:47,360
My number's 4361625.
200
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,360
Hope to hear from you soon. Bye.
201
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,880
DEEP VOICE: Dale Jennings here
with the morning update.
202
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,080
Dale Jennings
with the morning update.
203
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,600
This has been Dale Jennings
with the morning update.
204
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,600
ALARM BLARES
205
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,040
ALARM CONTINUES
206
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,280
Ah. She graces us with her presence.
HELEN CHUCKLES
207
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,840
You want to be a reporter, you know
what time reporters get here?
208
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,720
About an hour and a half ago.
Well, I just secured an interview.
209
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,080
Uh-huh? Yeah.
210
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,160
It's a woman, uh, mother of two...
211
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:13,760
Great. Well, you can
tell Dale all of this.
212
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,960
He's got some options for you,
as well. I'm sorry?
213
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,920
Dale Jennings.
He'll be producing you.
214
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,960
Lindsay said I could...
It was Lindsay's idea.
215
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,320
All reporters work under a producer.
216
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:31,920
They also get here at 7am.
217
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,040
Helen. Hi.
218
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,880
So thrilled to be working with you.
Mm-hm.
219
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,240
Looks like it's going to be
a bit of a bumper day.
220
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,880
So, I'm sorry,
I was under the impression
221
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,880
that this was going to be
a special report of my choosing.
222
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,560
Absolutely, and I've got
quite a few options
223
00:11:46,560 --> 00:11:48,960
I thought we could pick from.
Well, I already have an interview.
224
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:50,960
OK. An interview with who?
225
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,400
Do you want to get a pen? Yep.
226
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,000
HELEN CLEARS HER THROAT
227
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,800
So, I have been in contact
with a woman.
228
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,280
Her name is Caroline Gibson. OK.
229
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,600
She has two children
and she is HIV positive.
230
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:10,680
OK.
231
00:12:10,680 --> 00:12:12,840
I know Lindsay's thoughts
on Aids stories,
232
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,680
but I see this as more of
a family story. Mm-hm.
233
00:12:16,680 --> 00:12:20,000
So, Caroline contracted HIV through
a blood transfusion. Mm-hm.
234
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,080
And there's actually quite a few
women in the same position,
235
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,960
except none of them have spoken
to the media yet, so... Look, I...
236
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,960
I think just for the first report...
Oh, this isn't my first report.
237
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,560
The first in this particular series,
238
00:12:31,560 --> 00:12:34,320
they were just hoping for something
a little more upbeat.
239
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,240
Still with substance, but...
240
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:39,280
Like what?
241
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,720
OK. Um...
242
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,560
It's the first day of school,
243
00:12:46,560 --> 00:12:48,600
so I was thinking we could actually
244
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,320
get you interviewing a prep class?
245
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,120
Alternatively...
Actually, this is...
246
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,120
Um, the new Melbourne Zoo
Butterfly House.
247
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:06,320
It's really world-class,
it's, it's, um, innovative
248
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,280
and they're about to welcome
their one millionth visitor.
249
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,040
Have you been there?
250
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,080
Quite good.
Lindsay very specifically said...
251
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,320
Oh, guys, don't start having a
whinge with me now, OK?
252
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,240
..that this
was going to be a special report...
253
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,160
You are more than welcome to...
of my choosing.
254
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,000
..bring it up with Lindsay when he
gets here.
255
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,480
This is a gripping family story...
256
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,000
Listen, I've put up with... I've got
a good third option.
257
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,240
Uh, it's about women... and space.
258
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,720
Just being able to,
um, see the planet.
259
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,720
I mean, you see it in pictures but
to be able to see that in reality
260
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,560
is going to be wonderful.
261
00:13:41,560 --> 00:13:43,880
So, she's a schoolteacher
and a mother of two,
262
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:45,200
and she's been picked by Nasa
263
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,680
to be the first civilian
ever sent into space.
264
00:13:47,680 --> 00:13:48,840
Great. I love it.
265
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,320
It's a US story.
266
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,800
Yeah, but I think we can get
some good Australian angles.
267
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,040
Can I speak to her? Um...
268
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,120
Well, no. Er, no, no,
269
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,520
but we do have an excellent
space scientist at the CSIRO
270
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,920
who we've used before, plus,
Hawke has made some comments
271
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,040
about Australia getting
its own space programme,
272
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,560
so we could cover that as well.
273
00:14:06,560 --> 00:14:08,080
Yep, I'd want to watch that.
Well done.
274
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:09,800
I want to talk to Lindsay.
I want to pitch my story.
275
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,760
I think it speaks for itself.
I mean, if you go in there
276
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,360
and tell him that right now,
you can forget about these reports.
277
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,360
DENNIS SIGHS
278
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,720
Don't worry. I'll tell Lindsay
you did your best.
279
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,400
You know, I would
just appreciate it,
280
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,160
if you get the chance, to tell
Lindsay that I did my best too.
281
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,920
OK, it might not come up but,
uh...just in case it does.
282
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,040
LINDSAY: You just do not know
how to put a sock in it, do you?
283
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:44,920
I have done a year and a half
of doing regional.
284
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,520
I spent two years as a senior
reporter.
285
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,000
I've got blokes here who've done
15 years. I can handle...
286
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,280
They do absolute shit.
If you just look at the story...
287
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,000
They don't mind
because that's the job!
288
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,680
60 Minutes are sending
female reporters to war zones.
289
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:57,800
LINDSAY LAUGHS
290
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,560
Anywhere you go is
a war zone, Helen.
291
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:02,000
You're a war zone on two legs.
292
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,240
So, yeah, try your luck there,
see if they'll take you.
293
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:05,440
I will.
294
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,040
Well, let me tell you something,
though, sweetheart.
295
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,000
Other networks, they hear about
the shit we have to put up with
296
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,480
from you,
297
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,680
they wouldn't touch you
with a ten-foot bargepole.
298
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,520
I'm not kidding, Helen.
299
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,520
I am not kidding. Every day
I have to back you up.
300
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,320
Every day, people come
in here and they say,
301
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:24,880
"Helen Norville, she's a nightmare.
302
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,160
"She's got a face like
a slapped arse."
303
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,000
But I bat them all back.
304
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:30,600
But, you know what, Helen?
305
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,000
They are fucking right!
306
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,440
Oh, you take one more step, Helen.
One more step, you're gone.
307
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,000
I'm not kidding!
308
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,560
I won't just can your reports!
309
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,040
You'll be gone!
310
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,360
For good!
311
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,720
You! Noelene.
312
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,720
Amend the run-downs.
Remove Helen Norville's name!
313
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,760
You! Dale Jennings!
314
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,480
You are going to take over
Helen's space story
315
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:02,000
and you are going to take over
all her updates starting tomorrow.
316
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,000
And the social studies teacher
says she plans to conduct
317
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,480
two lessons live from space.
318
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:05,080
Just being able to, um,
see the planet in reality
319
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:06,320
is going to be wonderful.
320
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,000
Dale Jennings, News at Six.
321
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,040
To sport now. And, Rob,
322
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,400
a difficult day for the
Australian cricket team.
323
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,440
Oh, that's right, Geoff.
Dear, oh, dear.
324
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,160
Captain Allan Border
is again under pressure
325
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,560
as Australia was bowled out for
just 70 on a perfect batting pitch
326
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,720
in today's World Series Cup match
at the Adelaide Oval.
327
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,640
PHONE DIALS
328
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,520
Walters residence.
329
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,120
You saw?
330
00:17:30,120 --> 00:17:32,560
Is she unwell again? No.
331
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,480
It all came to a head
this afternoon. She's gone.
332
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,120
What? Permanently?
Well, according to Lindsay.
333
00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:39,880
Apparently, they had
another screaming match
334
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,760
and he finally drew a line
in the sand. Ohh...
335
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,760
When will the network announce it?
I don't know.
336
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,680
Well, they need to say something
quickly. She'll give interviews.
337
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,800
She courts those women's magazines.
338
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,640
Evvie... Geoff, you need
to speak to Lindsay.
339
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:58,840
You need to make sure he abandons
the whole idea of the second reader.
340
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,560
No. I think I'll leave it tonight.
341
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,280
I'll speak to him in the morning.
342
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,520
Ah, he'll have another
girl in the wings,
343
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,480
some game show girl... Why don't
you pick out a nice bottle of red?
344
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:09,720
I'm leaving now.
345
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,640
I love you. Love you, too, darling.
346
00:18:56,360 --> 00:18:59,320
DOORBELL RINGS
347
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:06,840
Helen!
348
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,840
It's Dale Jennings from work.
349
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,720
I've got your, um...
Your bag and your book.
350
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,240
You left it behind.
351
00:19:21,120 --> 00:19:24,200
Sorry, Helen, I just wouldn't mind
if you let me know you're all right.
352
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,000
Hello?
353
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,000
Helen?
354
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,000
SOFT TAPPING
355
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,000
NEEDLE POPS
356
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:12,200
Hello?
357
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,040
Helen? Helen?
358
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:22,360
Helen?
359
00:20:22,360 --> 00:20:24,000
Can you hear me?
360
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,680
Helen?
361
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:29,000
HE BREATHES SHAKILY
362
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,360
RINGING
363
00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:37,000
Emergency.
Police, fire or ambulance?
364
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,280
Ambulance.
365
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,400
Yeah, emergency.
366
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:45,000
SIRENS WAIL
367
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,720
OK. The ambulance is here.
all right? They're coming now.
368
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,000
Yes! Yes!
369
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,080
I can't go to the...
370
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,480
I can't go to the hospital.
371
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,440
I can't...
372
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:10,200
She's just this way.
373
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:11,480
She's conscious? Yes.
374
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,920
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
375
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,320
We might just take a
quick look at you.
376
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:24,560
Mm-hm.
377
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,000
Do you remember what happened?
378
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,000
I just think that I took
too many pills.
379
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,200
You know, probably four.
380
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:35,880
Your boyfriend? Husband?
381
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:37,720
Oh, no. Um, a work colleague.
382
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,800
If you could just focus
on my finger, please.
383
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,560
Anything like this has
happened before?
384
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,280
I wouldn't know, sorry.
385
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,880
Any reason to think
it was intentional?
386
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:00,720
Oh, I'm not sure.
387
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:02,880
I'd prefer it if she came
into the hospital,
388
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:07,440
but she's very resistant to that.
She's a public figure? Yeah.
389
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,280
Anywhere else she could stay?
She's, uh... Says there's no family.
390
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,240
I'm sorry. I don't know.
391
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,040
I mean, I could stay here
for a while.
392
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:15,760
We'd want to get her away from here,
393
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,400
away from any medication
she might have lying around.
394
00:22:19,360 --> 00:22:21,040
Can you think of anywhere else?
395
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,920
BIRDS CALL, CARS HONK
396
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,320
ALARM BUZZES
397
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,320
Helen?
398
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:01,880
Morning.
399
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,000
How are you feeling?
400
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,960
I'm fine. I'm just going to do this
and then get out of here.
401
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,000
Oh, you're welcome to stay just
for the day, for a bit of rest.
402
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,000
I'm fine, Dale. I just had a mix-up
with my pills. That was it.
403
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:15,920
OK. But why don't you stay?
404
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,280
You know, I've got tea, coffee.
405
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,440
Um... Uh...
406
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,080
Chicken loaf, bread, cheese.
407
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,800
The tape player's set to record
408
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,520
if you don't mind just
watching the telly, but...
409
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,960
The midday movie is The Music Man.
410
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,840
Um...
411
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,360
I'll call home during the day,
if you promise me you'll answer.
412
00:23:42,360 --> 00:23:45,360
And then I will bring home
some dinner
413
00:23:45,360 --> 00:23:47,720
and we can come up with a plan.
414
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:50,640
What kind of plan?
415
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,480
To get you home.
416
00:23:58,240 --> 00:23:59,320
OK.
417
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:00,360
OK.
418
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,000
Better get ready.
419
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,440
Don't know why I did that.
You're not a captain. Heh.
420
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,320
I kind of liked it.
421
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:15,600
OK.
422
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,760
Good morning. A very
busy news day today.
423
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,320
The News at Six.
424
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,280
Fffffffff...
425
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:32,480
Mmmm.
426
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:33,560
Ahh.
427
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,360
Mmmmmmmm.
428
00:24:35,360 --> 00:24:37,000
De...
429
00:24:35,360 --> 00:24:37,000
CLEARING THROAT
430
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,000
DEEP VOICE: Dale. Dale Jennings.
431
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,000
Dale Jennings.
432
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,560
Dale Jennings, the News at Six.
433
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,680
Is that future Gold Logie winner
Dale Jennings?
434
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:56,400
Yes! Look out!
435
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,120
Making your big move, are you, mate?
436
00:24:58,120 --> 00:24:59,960
No. Just broadening experience.
437
00:24:59,960 --> 00:25:01,920
Ah, he is! Ahhh! Look at him.
438
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,440
Little spark in the eye.
Don't hide it, mate.
439
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,400
Don't listen to Robbo. He said
"expecially" instead of "especially"
440
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,640
for his first year on the desk.
Right...
441
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,880
Uh, I'm imagining the Thatcher
scandal is the lead?
442
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,400
And we'll probably do, uh,
Dire Straits arriving in Australia.
443
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:17,440
OK.
444
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,520
You all right? Yeah.
445
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,280
Sleep OK? Yep.
446
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,360
Maybe, uh, give yourself a little
bit of extra time in make-up, huh?
447
00:25:25,360 --> 00:25:27,000
LINDSAY: Oh...fuck!
448
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,240
Fuck!
449
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,240
That's not about the update, is it?
450
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:35,040
Nah. Last night's ratings
fell off a cliff without Helen.
451
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,160
Right.
452
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,720
Good luck.
453
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:45,480
Make-up. Shit.
454
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,000
MUSIC PLAYS
455
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,080
Can I just do a white balance check?
456
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,240
I thought we'd be starting
with Dire Straits.
457
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,720
Can you read it all clearly? Uh-huh.
458
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,440
There's water under the desk,
if you get dry-mouthed.
459
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:28,920
Thanks.
460
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:30,760
Just relax into it, mate. Yeah.
461
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,760
And remember, there's only, what?
462
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:36,880
Is it three or four full stadiums
of people watching?
463
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:38,440
Just hold still for me.
464
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,360
Val!
465
00:27:45,360 --> 00:27:47,360
How is he? Have you spoken to him?
466
00:27:47,360 --> 00:27:50,320
No, no. I'm sure he's nervous enough
without hearing from me.
467
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:51,800
Come in. Come in.
468
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:57,000
Might need to pump up the bass
a bit for Jennings' voice.
469
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,440
NEWS THEME PLAYS
470
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,440
And we are on in 15.
471
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:05,640
Ten.
472
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,120
On my hand...
473
00:28:09,120 --> 00:28:10,640
Five...
474
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,520
Good morning. Dale Jennings
here with the latest news.
475
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,560
UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher
is steadfastly refusing to resign
476
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,280
in the face of the
Westland Helicopter crisis.
477
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,920
The embattled PM poses an emergency
debate in the House of Commons.
478
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,160
MARGARET THATCHER: Truth
is often stranger than fiction...
479
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:30,880
Yeah. You need to slow down, fella.
480
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:33,120
Yeah. Yep. You asked me these
questions. Of course I will reply
481
00:28:33,120 --> 00:28:36,000
to them... He's so handsome.
..but I must reply to them
482
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,000
first to Members of Parliament.
We are back in...
483
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,880
..and to the whole House of Commons.
Three...
484
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,840
I will do my best to get
precise answers to them.
485
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,320
The biggest rock band
in the world, Dire Straits,
486
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,560
have commenced their Australian tour
amidst a ticket-scalping controversy
487
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,080
with $27 seats fetching up to $400.
488
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:51,160
Come on. Slow it down.
489
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,840
Lead singer Mark Knopfler
advises fans
490
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:54,440
not to spend that kind of money.
491
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:56,920
MARK KNOPFLER: Just don't do it.
492
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,720
The other thing that
I'll say is that...
493
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,960
You need to slow down or
there'll be dead air at the end.
494
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,440
I'll try to move the Autocue a
little slower. Try and follow me.
495
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,640
Sorry. ..our show's not worth $400.
LAUGHTER
496
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,440
..is, is that... We are back in...
497
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,880
We're going to make a limited
amount of tickets available.
498
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:17,280
To sport now, and Australian
cricket captain, Allan Broader...
499
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:24,160
Border, has threatened to resign
in the wake of Australia's worse...
500
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,720
Worst ever World Cricket score...
Series score.
501
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,000
ALLAN BORDER: Basically
put it to the blokes that, erm...
502
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,800
He's finding his rhythm, I think.
503
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,800
SHE LAUGHS NERVOUSLY
504
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,280
..a better performance level and...
505
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,400
OK. You're going to need
to pad out to the wrap-up
506
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,400
because you're still 10 seconds
ahead. ..good performances,
507
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,000
not necessarily winning or losing...
We're back in...
508
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,760
..just the performances
have been very, very poor
509
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:48,120
and I've just had enough.
510
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:49,640
To weather, now.
511
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:51,840
Fine today with a top of 28.
512
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,720
This has been Dale Jennings
from the newsroom.
513
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,000
We'll have more updates...
Poor bugger.
514
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:02,400
..for you throughout the day.
515
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,160
Thank you.
516
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,080

ROB HISSES
518
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:21,000
Tea?
519
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,200
Perhaps tomorrow it might be worth
coming in a little early?
520
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,000
We can do another practice.
521
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:33,080
Great.
522
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:36,360
Good.
523
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:54,600
Fuck!
524
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,880
Mate, if it's any consolation...
525
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:27,160
..you could really have a future
calling horse races.
526
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,000
Huh. Chin up.
527
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,800
Just so you know,
Lindsay didn't see it.
528
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,400
He was in some meeting. Oh.
529
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,160
I don't know what happened.
The rehearsal tape was fine.
530
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:48,360
It's different live.
531
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,000
You'll get there.
532
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,240
Anyone else?
533
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,960
Hello. You've reached Dale Jennings.
534
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:12,360
I can't take your call right now,
535
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,560
but if you leave me a message
with your details,
536
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:16,360
I'll get back to you.

Helen, if you're there,
can you pick up the phone?
539
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:21,920
Helen, you promised. Just pick up.
540
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:24,800

Helen?
545
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:49,080
Hi! I'm so sorry -
I've taken over your kitchen.
546
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:52,400
Hey, I called the girls on reception
and they told me about the ratings.
547
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:54,680
They said that they had about
a hundred phone calls.
548
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,160
Did Lindsay say anything?
549
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,120
You promised me you'd
answer the phone.
550
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,840
Yeah, but I... I wanted to make
dinner just to say thank you.
551
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:06,520
I rang four times.
552
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,520
Yeah, I was only at
the shop for an hour.
553
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,160
Right.
554
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:13,600
What's wrong?
555
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,560
I...
556
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,640
..did my first update on
the desk today.
557
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,360
It just didn't go very well,
that's all.
558
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:20,600
You... What?
559
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:38,640
Good morning. Dale Jennings
here with the latest... No!
560
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,360
..steadfastly refusing to resign...
I said don't, um, touch the VCR!
561
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:43,720
Why didn't you tell me that
you were on the desk today?
562
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,120
You weren't in any fit state
to tell you that.
563
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:49,760
Can I watch it?
564
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,160
No.
565
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,760
The first time that I ever read,
566
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,000
I froze for, like,
a solid ten seconds,
567
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,080
and then the second time,
568
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,000
I kept stumbling over
the word "phenomenon".
569
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,000
Took me three goes at it.
570
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:05,480
Let me watch it.
571

DALE INHALES
572
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:09,720
It's really bad.
573
00:34:10,720 --> 00:34:12,920
The biggest rock band
in the world, Dire Straits,
574
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:17,120
have commenced their Australian tour
amidst a ticket-scalping controversy
575
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:19,080
with $27 seats fetching up for $400.
576
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:20,840
Lead singer Mark Knopfler
577
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:23,400
advises fans not to spend
that kind of money.
578
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:26,240
Just don't do it.
The other thing that I'd say
579
00:34:26,240 --> 00:34:30,040
is that, quite apart from the fact
that our shows are not worth $400...
580
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,760
It's a little bit fast,
but we can work on that.
581
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:34,120
..is that, uh...
582
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:36,600
Jean? News at Six.
583
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,040
Oh, Christ.
584
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:42,160
Lindsay, I need a quick word
about the numbers.
585
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:43,680
Uh...
586
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,200
I am on my way out.
Are upstairs worried?
587
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,000
Mate...
588
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,840
LINDSAY SIGHS
589
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:51,800
Mate, they're not thrilled.
590
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,320
Well, they were always going to dip,
but they will go up again.
591
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,920
Yeah, mate... Now, we used
to have a huge audience.
592
00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:00,240
But we still do. A serious news
audience, and we lost them,
593
00:35:00,240 --> 00:35:02,600
because, at a certain point,
and I'm certainly not blaming you...
594
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:06,120
Big of you. ..we started serving
them glamour instead. Oh...
595
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,000
Now, we can get those
viewers back, Lindsay.
596
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,200
Let's get me back into the field.
Yeah...
597
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,960
When I was a reporter in Vietnam,
Lindsay, people were riveted.
598
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,880
Riveted! Ah, yeah,
Vietnam was terrific for telly,
599
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,320
but, mate, you and I both know
600
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,800
the numbers, they go up,
they go down.
601
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,240
Probably all change tomorrow.
602
00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:26,080
Right. OK.
603
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,520
Whatever happens,
you and I must stay the course.
604
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:32,800
Agreed?
605
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,360
Mm. Of course.
606
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:39,120
Good.
607
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,640
No, Ms Norville is just taking
some time out... Hi, Jean.
608
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:45,000
She's perfectly well,
she's just having some time.
609
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,640
I can promise you, Helen will be
back on your screen very soon.
610
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:48,960
No, no, there's no need...
611
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,000
She's absolutely still part
of the News at Six team.
612
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:56,320
Thank you. Thank you for calling.
613
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:56,320
TELEPHONES CONTINUE TO RING
614
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,360
Uh, newsroom. Noelene speaking.
615
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,320
After two decades of rule,
Philippines str...
616
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,920
Hm-hm-hm-hm, you're doing
something to your voice.
617
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,920
Yeah, I... I speed up if I don't
try and control the sound.
618
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,880
OK, well, just try one
just in your normal voice.
619
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:12,080
After two decades of rule,
620
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,520
Philippine strongman Phillip...
Ferdinand Marcos...
621
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,360
Yeah, but you've got to talk to me.
Sorry.
622
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,480
You've got to impart the information
to me. I'm the audience.
623
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,200
After two decades of rule,
624
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,280
Philippine strongman
Ferdinand Marcos
625
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:26,240
is facing an election challenge...
Take a little sip of your drink.
626
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:33,320
OK.
627
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,320
After two decades of rule,
Philippine strongman...
628
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:42,640
And now you sound like
you're attacked.
629
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,040
Well, I actually feel a little bit
like I'm under attack. Where...
630
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:46,320
Where did you grow up?
631
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:47,520
Bendigo.
632
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,880
So imagine that you're there
and you're talking to your parents.
633
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:52,160
It's just my mum.
634
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,080
OK, so imagine that you're
talking to your mother
635
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,400
just calmly and clearly.
636
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:00,760
You're imparting the information.
You want her to understand it.
637
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,280
And...she loves you,
638
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,760
and she wants to understand
the story, too.
639
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:08,280
OK.
640
00:37:09,240 --> 00:37:11,280
DALE CLEARS HIS THROAT
641
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:14,960
After two decades of rule,
642
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,560
Philippine strongman
Ferdinand Marcos
643
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,320
is facing a fierce
election challenge
644
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,760
from a political novice,
Corazon Aquino.
645
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,800
Keep going. Ms Aquino, the first
woman to run for president,
646
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,240
has accused Marcos of being merely
a front man for his wife, Imelda,
647
00:37:29,240 --> 00:37:32,560
declaring, "May the better
woman win the election".
648
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:34,600
Keep going?
649
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,880
I'd really like to get my hands
on your hair.
650
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,120
Like, just...
651
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,520
Just to, kind of,
shape it a little bit.
652
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:46,560
OK.
653
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,680
OK, so subtle, nothing too much.
654
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,480
You know, 80% of what people
actually see is your hair.
655
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,080
What kind of statistic is that?
656
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,760
They've done studies.
What studies?
657
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,960
You know, um, Geoff actually spends
more time in the make-up chair
658
00:37:57,960 --> 00:37:59,320
than he does behind the actual desk,
659
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:01,760
and I've got to get a two-hour
dye job once a fortnight.
660
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:03,080
Really? Yeah.
661
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:05,120
See? Go take a look.
662
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:06,280
OK.
663
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,240
I think at least 15%
more attractive.
664
00:38:08,240 --> 00:38:11,680
I'm getting very suspicious
of your statistics.
665
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:26,640
Actually, more like 20%.

The highly publicised Nasa mission
Challenger has ended in disaster.
670
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:12,960
At approximately 3.30 Australian

00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:14,680
Shh! ..exploded soon after take-off,

killing everyone on board.

Oh. Is this... ?
678
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:33,720
I was after Dale.
679
00:39:33,720 --> 00:39:35,720
Uh, he's still asleep.

00:39:35,720 --> 00:39:38,760
Um, can you tell him that
it's Noelene from work?
681
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:41,680
Tell him to turn on
the ABC Radio right now.
682
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,080
The shuttle... Who is it?
683
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:45,480
..with the teacher, exploded.
Can you turn the radio on?
684
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,800
Uh, OK, we're doing it.
Thanks, Noelene.

00:39:58,120 --> 00:39:59,640
You still on the updates?
I think so.
691
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,280
So you should go! Right.
..11,000 teachers have applied...
692
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:04,320
DOOR CLOSES
693
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,760
Is the comms in yet?
Comms feed will be in any minute.
694
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,680
I reckon I've got
four good library stories.
695
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,440
I've got the Nasa training videos,
interviews with the family...
696
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,280
Have you done something to your
hair? Gel? Are you doing the update?
697
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,840
Yes, and I'm well across the
story... Rob! Where are you going?
698
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:22,200
VFL morning... No, you're not.
699
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,480
Get into make-up,
you're doing the first update.
700
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,360
I understand I struggled the other
day... Dale, it was a train wreck.
701
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:29,600
You are a very good producer.
You're an OK reporter.
702
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,000
You're not a newsreader.
It's just not you, all right?
703
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:33,400
Comms feed is in!
704
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:44,560
TAPE: Lift-off of the 25th
Space Shuttle mission,
705
00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:47,000
and it has cleared the tower.
706
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:50,120
Houston, Challenger roll program.
707
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:51,760
Roger roll, Challenger.
708
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,600
Good roll program confirmed.
709
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,880
Challenger now heading
down range. 94%.
710
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,600
Engines throttling up.
Three engines now at 104%.
711
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,800
Challenger, go at throttle up.
712
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,480
Roger go at throttle up.
713
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:13,720
SCREAMING
714
00:41:13,720 --> 00:41:15,480
Who are they? They're the parents.
715
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,760
Oh, bugger me. Jesus Christ.
716
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,800
Flight controllers here looking
very carefully at the situation.
717
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:22,560
Major malfunction.
718
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:22,560
BUTTON CLICKS
719
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,920
LINDSAY: What else have
you got there, Murray?
720
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:29,360
There's profiles with the astronauts
and...some other stuff. All right.
721
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,400
Uh, look, I'm...
I'm a sports reporter.
722
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,000
I've never done breaking news.
723
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,760
I know this story. I've reported
on it. I know it inside out.
724
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:41,840
TELEPHONE RINGS
725
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:46,880
Walters Residence.
726
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,200
Yeah, I'm just wondering if,
uh... If Geoff is there.
727
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,120
No. It's his golf morning.
728
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:52,600
Can I assist in any way?
729
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:55,880
Well, um... We've got
some breaking news, Evelyn,
730
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:57,760
and we need to extend the updates.
731
00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,840
Well, I could get the club
to dispatch a groundsman.
732
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,400
They're usually very efficient.
Well, how long will that take?
733
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,840
He'd... Be with you before midday.
734
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:08,480
Well, that'd be great.
Thanks very much, Evelyn.
735
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,400
Fuck!
736
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:13,640
Dale!
737
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:17,800
You know this story inside out?
738
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:19,120
Yes.
739
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,200
Noelene, get me Helen's home number.
740
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,360
B-but she's...
741
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,480
..at your place, isn't she?
742
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:34,000
Yeah. Um...
743
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,040
I'll call her. I'll get her in.
744
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:37,080
What?
745
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:42,680
DALE CLEARS HIS THROAT
746
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:47,080
Uh, Noelene will be on the Autocue.
I'll be on the floor beside you.
747
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:48,640
We've got three minutes
of the launch footage,
748
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:50,360
we've got the US story
about the astronauts,
749
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,560
we've got the story from
the other day about the teacher.
750
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,760
Do you want to see the footage?
No, no, no. I'll watch it on air.
751
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:56,960
I want to react the same time
as the audience does.
752
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:58,480
Good on you for coming in, Helen.
753
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,440
We really appreciate it, don't we?
It's fantastic.
754
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:02,520
OK, so, I think that this should
be more than an update
755
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:04,320
I think that we should
stay with it for the hour.
756
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:05,640
Uh, we don't have the footage.
757
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:07,120
No, we just rotate the same footage.
758
00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:09,280
People have been listening to
the radio, calling their friends -
759
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:10,920
they're going to be heading
to their televisions
760
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,720
and we need to be the ones
playing it. We will be, Helen.
761
00:43:13,720 --> 00:43:17,200
There's more coming in.
Apparently, Reagan's made a speech.
762
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:20,880
OK. So, would it be safe
to call this the...
763
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:22,920
The worst disaster in space history?
764
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:24,240
Uh... We're on in 15.
765
00:43:24,240 --> 00:43:26,080
How many died in
the Apollo explosion?
766
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:27,320
Uh, I think only three?
767
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,440
So, yes, it's the worst. In ten...
768
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:31,880
NEWS THEME PLAYS
769
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:31,880
Thanks, Cheryl.
770
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,880
HELEN CLEARS HER THROAT
771
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,880
Okey-dokey...
772
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:36,960
And five, four...
773
00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:43,720
Good morning. I'm Helen Norville.
774
00:43:43,720 --> 00:43:45,280
We interrupt our programming
775
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:47,880
to bring you breaking news
from the United States,
776
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:51,560
which has just seen the worst
accident in space history,
777
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:54,720
the tragic explosion of
the shuttle Challenger
778
00:43:54,720 --> 00:43:57,400
just a minute after launch.
779
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,520
All seven astronauts
aboard the shuttle
780
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,960
are believed to have perished
in the disaster.
781
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:04,760
The mission attracted
special attention
782
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,920
because it involved
the first civilian sent to space,
783
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:13,120
schoolteacher and mother-of-two
Christa McAuliffe.
784
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,760
Lift-off of the 25th...
785
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:17,720
Uh, next story's going to be
about Christa.
786
00:44:17,720 --> 00:44:18,920
..cleared the tower.
787
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:21,480
Houston, Challenger roll program.
788
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,000
Roger roll, Challenger.
789
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:26,920
Engines throttling up.
Three engines now at 104%.
790
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,320
Challenger, go at throttle up.
791
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,320
Roger go at throttle up.
792
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:33,520
GASPING
793
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,320
CROWD SCREAM
794
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,320
WOMAN: Oh, God!
795
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,320
We are back in five...
796
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:44,280
What are her parents' names? Um...
797
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,000
Um, uh...
798
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,280
Grace and Ed. Grace and Ed Corrigan.
799
00:44:49,240 --> 00:44:51,600
Watching there,
800
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:55,440
Grace and Ed Corrigan,
Christa McAuliffe's parents.
801
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:59,200
Just months earlier,
the McAuliffe family were jubilant
802
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,680
when Christa was selected
from over 11,000 teachers
803
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:06,400
for an opportunity that seemed
like a dream come true.
804
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,000
And we're again in 30 seconds. OK.
805
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:10,680
Can I grab some water, Noelene?
806
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:12,800
Noels, can we get some water?
Thank you.
807
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:16,360
So, the next stories, they're
stories about the six astronauts.
808
00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:17,720
Thank you. No, no, no, no.
809
00:45:17,720 --> 00:45:20,000
We, we want to show the...
The footage of the explosion again.
810
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,640
We don't want to ever go more than
a few minutes without showing it.
811
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,760
Can you give me something?
Uh... Give me another intro.
812
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:26,840
Like, something about the, uh...
Ah, ah, I think the... ..explosion?
813
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:29,000
..the main fuel tank exploded.
In five. Ah, yep, yep.
814
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:31,680
Er, the flames came in from
a defect in the booster.
815
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:33,840
The flames couldn't be seen from
the observers on the ground,
816
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:37,240
but they were picked up by
slow-motion footage from the launch.
817
00:45:37,240 --> 00:45:38,800
OK, thank you.
818
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,280
Official sources have now confirmed
819
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:46,000
there is no hope the shuttle's crew
survived the fireball explosion.
820
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,760
It was the main fuel tank
that exploded,
821
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:53,000
with the flames appearing to come
from a defect in the booster.
822
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,720
The flames couldn't be seen
by observers on the ground,
823
00:45:56,720 --> 00:46:00,000
but they were picked up
by slow-motion footage.
824
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:03,600
Aboard the shuttle were
Mission Commander Dick Scobee...
825
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,680
Breaking children's television
to show the deaths of seven people.
826
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:10,000
Well, we have, uh, broken into
children's programming before,
827
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:11,080
when there's been a bushfire or...
828
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:14,000
Yes, yes, for a public service,
CFA warnings,
829
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:17,360
but we would never, ever show
footage of people dying, Lindsay.
830
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:19,280
Yeah, the kiddies wouldn't
really understand it.
831
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:22,560
Well, you've got her out there
explaining it in very basic terms.
832
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,440
..the excitement for
Christa McAuliffe...
833
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:28,040
Does just means she's reinstated?
..and parishioner, who had become...
834
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:29,880
I don't know, mate. I don't know.
835
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:32,160
It's, um...
836
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:33,560
We dropped again last night.
837
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:36,000
A social studies teacher
at Concord High School,
838
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:37,680
Mrs McAuliffe taught American...
Badly.
839
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:39,960
..history, law, economics,
840
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:43,960
and a course that she designed
herself, The American Woman.
841
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,440
Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev
has sent a telegram of condolence
842
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:49,680
to the United States President,
Ronald Reagan.
843
00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:50,720
OK.
844
00:46:50,720 --> 00:46:53,240
The telegram read,
"We partake of your grief..."
845
00:46:53,240 --> 00:46:55,280
Uh, so, Reagan made a speech.
846
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:58,240
He spoke directly to schoolchildren,
saying that the tragedy was...
847
00:46:58,240 --> 00:47:01,120
..part of the process of exploration
848
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:06,120
and he pledged that the shuttle
programme will absolutely continue.
849
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:09,600
I've always had great faith in and
respect for our space programme.
850
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:11,000
Cut out for 30 seconds.
Cut out for 30.
851
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,600
What happened today does nothing
to diminish it. OK! OK.
852
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:15,600
We don't hide our space programmes.
OK, 30.
853
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:17,800
And, back in five. We don't keep
secrets and cover things up.
854
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,320
United States President
Ronald Reagan there
855
00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:24,120
putting into words some of
the horror that we all feel.
856
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:28,280
The impact of this tragedy
will be felt for months, years,
857
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:32,480
but right now, our thoughts must be
with those children tonight,
858
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:36,800
going to bed, having
tragically lost a parent.
859
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:38,680
For the McAuliffe family,
860
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:43,440
their beloved daughter,
wife, mother, Christa.
861
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,600
TEARILY: When that shuttle goes,
there might be one body...
862
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:53,480
..but there's gonna be 10 souls
that I'm taking with me. Thank you.
863
00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,400
APPLAUSE
864
00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:57,840
This has been Helen Norville.
865
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,080
We'll return now to our
regular programming.
866
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:03,840
Geoff Walters will be back
with the next update, on the hour.
867
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,960
And we're out. Oho... Woohoo!
868
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:10,160
Woo!
869
00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:12,680
You're incredible. Thanks.
870
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:15,480
You're incredible!
871
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:19,280
SHE INHALES
872
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:19,280
I just... Oh!
873
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:21,360
Thank you! Helen.
874
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:26,280
Well done, pulling all that together
so quickly. Quite a feat.
875
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:28,280
Oh, well, I mean, it wasn't just me.
876
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:31,400
But...working up emotion like that.
877
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:36,480
I wasn't working up anything.
Oh, we both know you were.
878
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:39,640
Look, some people will
probably applaud you for it,
879
00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:41,000
but I think, uh,
880
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:44,240
most would prefer that that
sort of thing is preserved for...
881
00:48:44,240 --> 00:48:47,040
..soap operas,
not the news bulletin.
882
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:51,960
We'll see.
883
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:58,480
Thank you, guys. Thank you.
884
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:03,640
Brilliant, Helen. Brilliant.
885
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:03,640
APPLAUSE
886
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,560
LINDSAY: Absolutely. Absolutely.
887
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:15,440
Well done, you. Well done, Helen.
888
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:19,080
Er, would you, uh, consider
staying for the evening bulletin?
889
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:21,840
I'm sacked. Aren't I?
890
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:26,680
Oh, well, you know,
you did...walk out on us.
891
00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:28,720
HELEN CHUCKLES
892
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:31,960
I'll consider it. Hm?
893
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:35,240
If you let me do an extended
update at 5.30, solo.
894
00:49:35,240 --> 00:49:39,160
And then I'd like to read the lead
at the 6pm bulletin.
895
00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:43,040
And I'd like to alternate
the lead story every other day.
896
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:44,160
And then, every Monday,
897
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,440
I'd like to do the special report
of my choosing,
898
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:48,080
with Dale.
899
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,920
So, you put that in writing,
and, yeah...
900
00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:54,760
..I'll consider it.
901
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,680
LINDSAY CLEARS HIS THROAT
902
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:07,000
What's going on there,
do you reckon?
903
00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:09,800
Dale Jennings?
904
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:11,720
Who knew he had it in him?
905
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:34,720
God, Helen, did I forget
to lock your door?
906
00:50:34,720 --> 00:50:37,400
It... I don't care. I'm so sorry.
It must've been in the rush
907
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,320
of everything, and I just...
No, it doesn't matter.
908
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,640
Do you want to make sure that your
jewellery and your electronics...
909
00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:43,760
Dale, I don't care.
910
00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:45,000
Sorry. Oh...
911
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:46,640
You're apologising for...
912
00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:50,040
For leaving my door unlocked
after you saved my life.
913
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:51,400
Thank you.
914
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:52,600
Oh...
915
00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:58,600
GLASSES CLINK
916
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:06,080
Why did you take those pills?
917
00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:15,440
It wasn't like I... No, I know.
918
00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:30,200
You know those nights
when everything horrible
919
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:33,280
that anybody's ever said
to you, or about you,
920
00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:36,880
and all the, you know, awful things
that you've ever done,
921
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:38,840
just keep playing
922
00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:40,400
over and over in your head?
923
00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:47,000
And I just wanted silence.
924
00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:57,200
You know you're incredible?
925
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,680
Wait till you get to know me.
No, I mean it.
926
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,160
And I could never do what you do.
927
00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:06,440
Yeah, you could.
928
00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:10,720
I think that ship has sailed.
929
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:15,000
CORK POPS, DALE SIGHS
930
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:21,200
You know, I am a fucking disaster.
931
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:23,160
But I'm also relentless.
932
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:25,640
And I'm loyal.
933
00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:28,720
I think we can make you
a newsreader.
934
00:52:28,720 --> 00:52:32,120
DALE LAUGHS
935
00:52:28,720 --> 00:52:32,120
So, come on, pick a story.
936
00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:34,720
No. Yeah. Pick a story, read it.
937
00:52:34,720 --> 00:52:37,360
Ugh, Helen, I have been up
for 17 hours.
938
00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:40,120
Well, it's breaking news
and you're on. Go!
939
00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:41,880
Oh, God.
940
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,280
What story would you like?
Any one. Just pick any one.
941
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:48,680
Yeah? Yeah.
942
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:53,160
"It's the toy line that sold out
all over the country.
943
00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:55,720
"The Cabbage Patch Kids are..."
OK, so...
944
00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:57,920
..you sound dead.
945
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:01,400
Well, I feel dead. Just go again.
946
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:04,640
"It's the toy line that sold out
all over the country.
947
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:06,120
"The Cabbage Patch Kids are..."
948
00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:08,000
And now there's judgement
in your voice.
949
00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:12,360
OK. Should I try it again? Yeah.
950
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:15,120
"It's the toy line that sold out
all over the country.
951
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,040
"The Cabbage Patch Kids..."
952
00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:20,040
"The Cabbage Patch..." Yes!
953
00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:22,920
That was it. That was good.
Yeah, OK.
954
00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:25,640
Well, let me try that again.
I'm not quite sure what I did.
955
00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:27,000
Just relaxed.
956
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:31,680
"It's the toy line that sold out
all over the country.
957
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:33,800
"The Cabbage Patch Kids..."
