Speaker 2 (00:03):
I tell you what, two of the heavyweights of television
in the studio at the moment, two of the most
powerful people in the industry.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Oh look, news heavyweights.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
I mean, what an introduction.
Speaker 4 (00:19):
I did think it was a bit much when you
strutted in this morning, Peter looking like Travis Kelcey arriving
at the super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Yes, a sparkly.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
Yes, Jersey was so yesterday.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Have you guys worked together before? You must have at some.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Stage, well, yeah, the flood.
Speaker 5 (00:40):
Yes, telethons and side bus side Yeah. But I've known
Sandra a very long time.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
So in your early journal days.
Speaker 5 (00:48):
Not in the same workplace. I've been at nine thirty
four years, you've been at ten. So there you go.
Speaker 6 (00:53):
That's extraordism.
Speaker 7 (00:55):
But we did meet at the Old Oaks at Neutral
Bay about six.
Speaker 5 (00:59):
Years when you could cook your own steak.
Speaker 8 (01:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Do you remember me?
Speaker 5 (01:03):
I do. Sandra was in the beer garden. It was
under the oak tree.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Oh, we were budding young journal's.
Speaker 5 (01:08):
Just that's right. I remember you said something very funny.
What did I described the Channel ten news as the
five o'clock feed.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Well, that's what we were told you called it.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Never are you flirting on that day?
Speaker 5 (01:21):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (01:21):
I was.
Speaker 5 (01:23):
Absolutely Sandra Sully Television Royalty talking to me.
Speaker 6 (01:29):
But what about rivalries?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Now, I know you guys, you are two of the
most loveliest gifts that we've ever had on this show.
But you know, over the years, it's like a rivalry
between a sporting team. There's between networks. There's been huge rivalries.
Have you you guys seen that or witnessed that?
Speaker 5 (01:46):
Well? I think there's definitely competition. Of course there is
between ten, seven and nine in the commercial space. But
for me, I don't have a rivalry with Sandra or
any of my colleagues because we work in unique positions
that come with high pressure. Like you guys are ratings
driven and I respect what you do, and I would
(02:06):
imagine Sandra respects what I do.
Speaker 7 (02:08):
Yeah, And I think we see each other as colleagues
even if we work for rival networks. The rivalry is
at a network level, but it's not where we're at.
But can I tell you what a secret? Pete and
I go way back and yess.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yes, we share a very special.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Can we do?
Speaker 1 (02:23):
What is Christina? It's not a love child?
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Who's Christina?
Speaker 5 (02:28):
She is this beautiful, beautiful woman who for Sandra and
for Jessica I think been our cleaner for thirty years plus.
Speaker 7 (02:35):
Yeah, yeah, And can I also tell you up until
very recently she also did Barthy in Jim Wilson's House.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
No way, we're Barthie and.
Speaker 7 (02:47):
Jimmer on seven, of course on nine, I'm on ten
and Christina knows everything.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Have a lot of loss.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Yeah, I know, you're the two most professional on the
television as well.
Speaker 6 (02:59):
Can you know sometimes.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
It's hard though, because you can lose it. Sandra, recently
in a podcast, you were asked about your most embarrassing.
Speaker 8 (03:07):
Live TV moment awesome, and it had to do with
the kangaroo. Can I show Can I show the guys
the clip? We've found the clip, Sandra, And I don't
know if we've got the audio. Jess this is you.
Speaker 6 (03:19):
With bradmy Ewan, the Great bradmy Ewan.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
But and he played a clip of a kangaroo on
a golf course.
Speaker 6 (03:27):
Now the kangaroo.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
This is where it was funny because the kangaroo was.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
Was playing with its tack or it set you right off.
Speaker 7 (03:33):
Would you want to get close to an animal that
it just finished doing this?
Speaker 3 (03:38):
You will be well done.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Ye're still the news on the National Weather.
Speaker 7 (03:46):
Yes, here we go tomorrow, mostly cloudy and kans and thirty.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Two were possible. Still, I don't think I'll forgive you.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
They didn't play that one from me till the very minute.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Was going to town on itself.
Speaker 7 (04:05):
And back in the day, you weren't allowed to lose
it on life, Tilly. We had straight jackets on. Now
you can be a little bit more relaxed. But it
was very late at night, and you.
Speaker 6 (04:13):
Know, have you had a moment like that paint where
you've lost it laughing?
Speaker 5 (04:17):
I have, And I remember I was a very young
sports reporter and I was reading the Sport with the
late great Ian Ross at Channel nine and Roscoe was
doing what we call a voiceover, and it was to
England Now and the moment an undertaker found that his
customer was actually alive, and then the sound came up
and the undertaker said, So I looked at my mate
(04:38):
Gary and I said, I think he's breathing, and Gary
said he is breathing.
Speaker 6 (04:45):
Anyway.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
I got the giggles because it was the funniest.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
Thing, and Roscoe was just holding it together. And then
he had to throw to me Sports Next with with
Peter Overton, and I.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Just lost it.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
But I thought that was career ending because in the day,
you know, you had to keep it nice and strange.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
I think what you feel about news readers though. I
mean I was at the gym the other day and
I saw Anne Sanders on the screen and I grew
up watching her, of course at Channel seven, with Anne
Sanders and Roger Clempson, and even just seeing them and
you guys as well, somehow makes you feel safe trust
(05:24):
it does. I know that's a very big call.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
I think that's about news.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
It's about trust.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Yes, totally emotional.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Well, it's not the sensationalism as well. You know, you
guys give us the news that it's happening. You're not
looking for clickbait or anything like that.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
It's just the news as it happens.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
And we would never try to take advantage of way journalists.
That's why we're about to do Headline Off Next.
Speaker 6 (05:52):
This is the first time we've done this.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Actually it's network versus network, Channel ten versus Channel nine,

That's not.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
It would it would be an honor to lie down.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
I would have thought that's going to be tough.

really want to kiss a dog, just make out with
