Annette Allison brought the sunshine of Brisbane to the television screens of Melbourne and beyond in a career than spanned decades and many and varied roles.
Fondly remembered for hosting Channel 10's Good Morning Melbourne and for a time the nightly news, Annette also interviewed the creme de la creme of visiting celebrities. When they didn't come here, she went to them, as she reminisces about the French jaunt to chat to His Royal Highness the Aga Khan and fly on his personal jet.
Another colourful 'royal' Annette recalls dearly was the man behind the television show King's Kitchen - the late, great Bernard King, a longtime friend from her Brisbane days. Annette gifts us one of Bernard's showstopping recipes for inclusion for our It's Showtime segment and it's a gift that will keep on giving.
Our Food Poll drips with nostalgia as we head to the refrigerated section and ask which of four classic ice cream favourites is your favourite. You can only pick one and the nominees are Barney Banana, Choc Wedge, Golden Gaytime or the Drumstick.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
