00:00:01,850 --> 00:00:04,770
We've got the team here
to cover all the bases.

2
00:00:04,770 --> 00:00:08,730
She's lying to our faces.
I don't know what more I can do.

3
00:00:08,730 --> 00:00:10,730
Call an ambulance!

4
00:00:10,730 --> 00:00:13,370
Kay. Kay. Kay, it's Daddy.
Come on, darling.

5
00:00:13,370 --> 00:00:16,610
My daughter.
I think she might have overdosed.

6
00:00:16,610 --> 00:00:19,090
That trollop from the Sun,
Donna Gillies, the gossip woman.

7
00:00:19,090 --> 00:00:21,530
She's got something going to print.
She wants a response.

8
00:00:21,530 --> 00:00:23,090
Is it true
that you were committed

9
00:00:23,090 --> 00:00:25,690
to the Larundel
psychiatric facility?

10
00:00:25,690 --> 00:00:27,810
A couple of years ago,
someone was keen

11
00:00:27,810 --> 00:00:29,530
to sell a story to her about me.

12
00:00:29,530 --> 00:00:31,610
My advice -
have something to offer her.

13
00:00:31,610 --> 00:00:35,050
What if we offer her
an engagement?

14
00:00:35,050 --> 00:00:38,370
Dale, there are some things that
I just would never want to trade.

15
00:00:40,130 --> 00:00:42,570
Make it natural.
Feel your groove, yeah?

16
00:00:42,570 --> 00:00:45,250
Feel each other. Yes!
Not literally.

17
00:00:45,250 --> 00:00:48,130
I think I need you
to go over the moves again.

18
00:00:48,130 --> 00:00:49,930
Yeah.
Just start with your feet.

19
00:00:49,930 --> 00:00:53,250
Let's put aside an hour for that
later today.

20
00:00:54,570 --> 00:00:56,690
Dani, do you start with
your right or your left?

21
00:00:56,690 --> 00:00:58,810
Right.
Right. Always the right.

22
00:00:58,810 --> 00:01:01,850
So, we begin
with landscape images.

23
00:01:01,850 --> 00:01:05,730
We're flying over beaches,
ranges, over ranges.

24
00:01:05,730 --> 00:01:07,690
Whirls of red dust in the outback.

25
00:01:07,690 --> 00:01:11,890
Now we're fading up on each of you,
turning to the camera,

26
00:01:11,890 --> 00:01:13,410
stars of the network.

27
00:01:13,410 --> 00:01:14,730
And then when the tempo changes,

28
00:01:14,730 --> 00:01:16,930
that's when we cut
to all of you moving together.

29
00:01:16,930 --> 00:01:18,370
If you just want to watch
Danielle, OK?

30
00:01:18,370 --> 00:01:20,970
So, we're just swaying side to side.

31
00:01:20,970 --> 00:01:22,930
Keeping it simple, loose.

32
00:01:22,930 --> 00:01:24,810
Mmm. And singing as well.

33
00:01:24,810 --> 00:01:26,970
Boys on the male vocal,
Helen - female.

34
00:01:26,970 --> 00:01:29,850
No, I'm not... I'm not gonna pretend
that that's my actual voice.

35
00:01:29,850 --> 00:01:33,450
It's a group singalong, so it won't
read as your voice per se.

36
00:01:33,450 --> 00:01:34,810
If she's not singing,
I'm not singing.

37
00:01:34,810 --> 00:01:38,290
Well, I don't think this reflects
on us as journalists. It's a promo.

38
00:01:38,290 --> 00:01:41,330
It's important that
the news team's foregrounded.

39
00:01:41,330 --> 00:01:43,410
Foregrounded?
What does that even mean?

40
00:01:43,410 --> 00:01:45,130
OK, let's bring it back
into the room.

41
00:01:45,130 --> 00:01:46,810
Let's get some smiles on those faces

42
00:01:46,810 --> 00:01:50,410
and get those feet
moving vaguely together.

00:01:50,410 --> 00:01:51,890
Alright. Thank you.

Can we have one...
one more go, maybe?

She's done so well
with the physical recovery.

62

We just... we now need
to understand why.

63

Oh.

I was just saying, we understand
it's not always possible, but...

69
00:03:36,370 --> 00:03:40,650

to involve the whole family.

Oh, of course.

71
00:03:42,090 --> 00:03:44,490
And Geoff would absolutely be here,

72
00:03:44,490 --> 00:03:46,650
but he was called interstate
for work.

73
00:03:47,890 --> 00:03:50,410
Might it be possible
to conduct these sessions

74
00:03:50,410 --> 00:03:52,290
a little later in the evening?

75
00:03:52,290 --> 00:03:54,810
She wants the cover of darkness. She
doesn't want anyone to see him here.

76
00:03:54,810 --> 00:03:59,530
Mrs Walters, I can assure you we
take confidentiality very seriously.

77
00:03:59,530 --> 00:04:02,210
We've had several high-profile
people on these grounds.

78
00:04:02,210 --> 00:04:04,690
Really?

79
00:04:04,690 --> 00:04:07,090
Well, who?
It's confidential, Mum.

80
00:04:08,490 --> 00:04:11,130
Oh. Yeah, of course. Sorry.

81
00:04:11,130 --> 00:04:14,850
Uh... well, thank you.
I'll put that to Geoff.

82
00:04:16,690 --> 00:04:18,090
She's lying.

83
00:04:21,050 --> 00:04:22,810
She'll never tell him.

85
00:04:25,330 --> 00:04:30,730

Hello to viewers across the nation.
I'm Geoff Walters.

00:04:42,730 --> 00:04:45,770
Welcome to our live coverage
from Western Australia

89
00:04:45,770 --> 00:04:48,650
as this historic re-enactment
of the First Fleet...

90
00:04:48,650 --> 00:04:51,410
Can we change the channel?
Well, no-one else is going live.

91
00:04:51,410 --> 00:04:53,290
Now, this journey began
seven months ago,

92
00:04:53,290 --> 00:04:57,410
when these majestic ships departed
Portsmouth in the United Kingdom,

93
00:04:57,410 --> 00:05:00,850
tracing our 18th-century ancestors.

94
00:05:00,850 --> 00:05:03,370
And finally, today,
our helicopter's in the sky.

finally reaches Sydney Harbour

104
00:05:27,970 --> 00:05:31,490
We are a young nation. A humble one.

105
00:05:31,490 --> 00:05:35,570
A nation that typically shies away
from grand gestures.

106
00:05:35,570 --> 00:05:39,810
But as we reflect on the journey
from 1788 to today,

107
00:05:39,810 --> 00:05:44,690
it's hard not to feel a sense of
pride, a sense of sincere glory...

it didn't seem that dramatic

128

with such professionalism.

00:07:03,450 --> 00:07:05,610
Also no mention of that.

that Kay's starting to think

00:07:11,450 --> 00:07:13,410
that I'm keeping you from her.

00:07:13,410 --> 00:07:15,890
I've visited her several times.
I know.

133
00:07:15,890 --> 00:07:18,850
But now they want to conduct
these counselling sessions.

134
00:07:18,850 --> 00:07:21,970
They're of the belief

144
00:08:18,330 --> 00:08:21,090
Instead, we learned
there are those among us

145
00:08:21,090 --> 00:08:24,650
determined to interrupt
our bicentennial commemorations,

146
00:08:24,650 --> 00:08:27,850
convinced that
Australians should feel shame

147
00:08:27,850 --> 00:08:32,610
over the actions of our distant
ancestors some two centuries ago.

148
00:08:34,010 --> 00:08:40,770
Saturday's protest was led
by a half-Irish radio disc jockey

149
00:08:40,770 --> 00:08:44,410
who claims he's the voice
of Aboriginal Australia.

150
00:08:44,410 --> 00:08:48,770
Well, I have many strong links
to genuine Aboriginal leaders,

00:08:48,770 --> 00:08:51,170

It's time to move forward
as a nation.

History is history,

154
00:08:56,330 --> 00:08:58,650
and dragging us back to the past

155
00:08:58,650 --> 00:09:02,250
does nothing to help
the Aborigines of Australia.

quite a detailed speech.

00:09:45,330 --> 00:09:47,170
and assume that you're not
gonna be so stupid

174
00:09:47,170 --> 00:09:48,530
as to suggest an interview.

175
00:09:49,570 --> 00:09:51,010
Oh, really? Oh...

176
00:09:51,010 --> 00:09:54,130
Geoff Walters spent four minutes
on national television

177
00:09:54,130 --> 00:09:55,170
calling him a sham.

178
00:09:55,170 --> 00:09:56,410
I want to see how he responds.

179
00:09:56,410 --> 00:09:58,170
Bringing this guy in
for an interview

180
00:09:58,170 --> 00:10:00,410
is like asking Gaddafi to come in
and have a chat about weapons!

181
00:10:00,410 --> 00:10:03,970
Our promo says we are gonna cover
every angle of the bicentennial.

182
00:10:03,970 --> 00:10:05,850
Not EVERY angle, Dale!
Not EVERY angle, OK?

183
00:10:05,850 --> 00:10:09,250
We're going to do the... the pretty
ships. We'll do Princess Di.

184
00:10:09,250 --> 00:10:11,890
We'll do concerts!
We'll do Princess Di.

185
00:10:11,890 --> 00:10:14,930
Oh, and if you want
some variety - Charles.

186
00:10:14,930 --> 00:10:17,530
And Geoff has a point.
It's been 200 years.

187
00:10:17,530 --> 00:10:21,410
At some stage...
gotta get over it, hey?

188
00:10:21,410 --> 00:10:23,210
I think Lynus would probably have

189
00:10:23,210 --> 00:10:24,930
a few things to say
about that statement.

190
00:10:26,330 --> 00:10:28,450
That statement?
Mm-hm.

191
00:10:28,450 --> 00:10:31,490
What are you saying? I'm a racist?

192
00:10:32,490 --> 00:10:35,250
(SCOFFS) I'm the least racist person
in this place.

193
00:10:35,250 --> 00:10:37,010
Half my footy team are blackfellas.

194
00:10:37,010 --> 00:10:38,770
Blackfellas.
Yeah.

195
00:10:38,770 --> 00:10:40,450
Look, we all know
what he's gonna say, OK?

196
00:10:40,450 --> 00:10:42,050
So, what's the follow-up
with the fleet?

197
00:10:42,050 --> 00:10:43,610
When are they leaving Fremantle?

198
00:10:43,610 --> 00:10:44,890
Why don't we say to Lindsay,

199
00:10:44,890 --> 00:10:48,010
"We'll give you four minutes of Di
for a minute and a half of Lynus"?

200
00:10:48,010 --> 00:10:49,370
I'd like two.

201
00:10:49,370 --> 00:10:50,690
This is what he's going
to say, right?

202
00:10:50,690 --> 00:10:52,250
He's gonna yell at YOU,
he's gonna turf YOU,

203
00:10:52,250 --> 00:10:53,970
and he's gonna find a way
to blame me.

204
00:10:53,970 --> 00:10:55,970
Let me give it a go.
Oh. Oh, wow!

205
00:10:55,970 --> 00:10:57,410
The moment has finally come

206
00:10:57,410 --> 00:10:59,850
when Dale Jennings
has overestimated himself!

207
00:10:59,850 --> 00:11:01,570
I never thought this would happen.
Yep?

208
00:11:01,570 --> 00:11:03,170
I am so excited to see this.

209
00:11:03,170 --> 00:11:04,570
Dale! What do you want?

210
00:11:04,570 --> 00:11:06,930
By '74, there were three of them
on the team.

211
00:11:06,930 --> 00:11:09,170
Actually, four. Barry Kayton.

212
00:11:09,170 --> 00:11:10,890
He was unreal. Full-back.

213
00:11:12,930 --> 00:11:14,250
They were just like the rest of us.

214
00:11:14,250 --> 00:11:15,570
We ate together, showered together,

215
00:11:15,570 --> 00:11:17,530
went to the pub together
after every game.

216
00:11:17,530 --> 00:11:19,570
Rob, stop.
St...?

217
00:11:29,170 --> 00:11:31,890
Lindsay would like four minutes
of, uh, Princess Diana.

218
00:11:31,890 --> 00:11:34,010
Four minutes?
What about Lynus?

219
00:11:36,770 --> 00:11:38,690
Dale! Congratulations, mate!

220
00:11:38,690 --> 00:11:40,770
Like, what a great outcome.
I did not see that coming.

221
00:11:40,770 --> 00:11:42,570
Dennis! In here!

222
00:11:42,570 --> 00:11:44,810
Realistically, is there
four minutes of story?

223
00:11:44,810 --> 00:11:47,170
There hasn't been much Diana footage
coming through lately.

224
00:11:47,170 --> 00:11:49,930
You know what? She is just clearly
a really depressed woman

225
00:11:49,930 --> 00:11:51,970
who hates every choice
that she's ever made in her life.

226
00:11:51,970 --> 00:11:53,250
Maybe that's your story.

227
00:11:53,250 --> 00:11:56,530
Just do...
pregnancy speculation!

228
00:12:05,490 --> 00:12:07,930
This is the last full story
we ran on Di.

229
00:12:07,930 --> 00:12:10,730
Prince Harry's first day at school,
all the way back in September.

230
00:12:10,730 --> 00:12:12,890
I couldn't figure out
why there'd been such a drought,

231
00:12:12,890 --> 00:12:14,890
so I started combing through
the print clippings,

232
00:12:14,890 --> 00:12:18,410
and basically, Charles went
to Balmoral Castle for the summer

233
00:12:18,410 --> 00:12:19,850
and Diana stayed in London.

234
00:12:19,850 --> 00:12:21,530
Which is not unusual.
Mm-hm.

235
00:12:21,530 --> 00:12:24,250
But now it's December
and Charles is still there

236
00:12:24,250 --> 00:12:26,170
and she's still in London.

237
00:12:26,170 --> 00:12:27,930
They've been living apart
for months.

238
00:12:27,930 --> 00:12:30,810
Maybe they prefer
getting saucy on the phone.

239
00:12:32,850 --> 00:12:35,050
Well, some couples are into that.

240
00:12:37,170 --> 00:12:39,610
Their body language is dire.
Mm-hm.

241
00:12:39,610 --> 00:12:42,090
Have any other outlets
verified where they are?

242
00:12:42,090 --> 00:12:45,170
No. And they've cancelled their
last five official engagements.

243
00:12:45,170 --> 00:12:46,730
I think if you put it all together,

244
00:12:46,730 --> 00:12:49,210
there's only one conclusion
you can draw.

245
00:12:49,210 --> 00:12:51,250
The royal couple have separated.

246
00:12:51,250 --> 00:12:53,130
They just haven't announced it yet.

247
00:12:53,130 --> 00:12:55,570
(LAUGHS) They haven't separated!

248
00:12:55,570 --> 00:12:58,930
You should see ME dropping the kids
off at school. I'm barely human.

249
00:13:02,130 --> 00:13:04,850
Forget the four minutes.
We're gonna need six.

250
00:13:04,850 --> 00:13:06,050
Because I have an exclusive

251
00:13:06,050 --> 00:13:07,730
that reveals a fracture
in the royal family

252
00:13:07,730 --> 00:13:09,930
that's gonna threaten
the whole bicentennial tour.

253
00:13:09,930 --> 00:13:11,130
Oh, what have you got?

254
00:13:11,130 --> 00:13:12,970
Well, that's what the whole country
will be wondering

255
00:13:12,970 --> 00:13:14,690
why you promote the hell out of it
for 24 hours.

256
00:13:14,690 --> 00:13:16,490
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
but you have got something?

257
00:13:16,490 --> 00:13:19,570
Yeah. Yeah. And we're gonna
cover it in... in detail.

258
00:13:19,570 --> 00:13:21,370
If...

259
00:13:21,370 --> 00:13:24,330
If you give us two minutes
with Lynus Preston.

260
00:13:24,330 --> 00:13:27,770
Oh, fuck me, Dale! You too?
What is it with you people?

261
00:13:27,770 --> 00:13:29,650
Two minutes with Lynus
for six minutes of Di.

262
00:13:29,650 --> 00:13:31,330
Mate, do you want me
to show you the ratings

263
00:13:31,330 --> 00:13:33,010
for the night Helen made us
do land rights?

264
00:13:33,010 --> 00:13:35,090
It's filed under N
for 'never fucking again'!

265
00:13:35,090 --> 00:13:37,250
Lindsay, you know if you promote
the hell out of this story,

266
00:13:37,250 --> 00:13:39,330
you'll get the biggest numbers
of the year.

267
00:13:42,290 --> 00:13:43,610
Alright.

268
00:13:49,090 --> 00:13:51,210
Hey, Dale, do you want to go
and grab some lunch or...

269
00:13:51,210 --> 00:13:52,610
I just got you two minutes
with Lynus.

270
00:13:52,610 --> 00:13:55,170
Beg your pardon?
Two minutes with Lynus.

271
00:13:56,170 --> 00:13:57,850
Does Lindsay know?
Yeah.

272
00:13:57,850 --> 00:13:59,290
Yes, he does. And he hates it.

273
00:13:59,290 --> 00:14:00,810
But I've got a killer Diana story.

274
00:14:00,810 --> 00:14:03,450
Do I have to cover Diana?
No, that's just me and Noelene.

275
00:14:03,450 --> 00:14:05,770
Oh, my God. Thank you so much.

276
00:14:05,770 --> 00:14:08,130
Oh! Can we do the lunch thing later?

277
00:14:08,130 --> 00:14:10,090
Yeah. I'll give you
as much lead time as I can.

278
00:14:10,090 --> 00:14:12,090
OK. Thank you!

279
00:14:19,130 --> 00:14:23,330
It didn't matter who was black and
who was white. We were a footy team.

280
00:14:23,330 --> 00:14:26,610
You know, we'd... hang out together.

281
00:14:26,610 --> 00:14:29,690
(LAUGHS) Some of those boys
were just... Oh!

282
00:14:29,690 --> 00:14:32,810
My mate, um... Deano,
he was like a brother to me.

283
00:14:32,810 --> 00:14:35,690
I'd even go to the mish
every now and then.

284
00:14:35,690 --> 00:14:40,570
Just... special occasion things, you
know, like funerals and whatnot.

285
00:14:40,570 --> 00:14:43,330
Rob, you don't have a racist bone
in your body.

286
00:14:43,330 --> 00:14:44,890
Oh, thank you, Jen. Thank you.

287
00:14:44,890 --> 00:14:48,170
I mean, I would have thought
it was... it was pretty obvious.

288
00:14:50,890 --> 00:14:53,690
I've never known you
to catch up with a Deano.

289
00:14:53,690 --> 00:14:55,210
What?

290
00:14:55,210 --> 00:14:58,890
You catch up with all your old
footy mates, but never Deano.

291
00:14:58,890 --> 00:15:01,810
Well, we all shot off
in different directions after footy,

292
00:15:01,810 --> 00:15:03,650
but we were close.

293
00:15:03,650 --> 00:15:06,850
I've never known you to catch up
with any Aboriginal player.

294
00:15:08,650 --> 00:15:10,450
Sorry, is this 'cause of
what Helen said?

295
00:15:11,530 --> 00:15:13,650
Deano was my mate,
but he lives out in Gunbower.

296
00:15:13,650 --> 00:15:15,530
He... works on a farm.
A farm?

297
00:15:15,530 --> 00:15:17,130
Yeah. What's wrong with that?

298
00:15:17,130 --> 00:15:19,330
He works on a farm?

299
00:15:19,330 --> 00:15:22,490
And you're on television
every night?

300
00:15:22,490 --> 00:15:25,290
He's a labourer. He's a country boy.
He's good with his hands.

301
00:15:25,290 --> 00:15:27,770
He didn't want to work on the telly.
Neither did you.

302
00:15:30,690 --> 00:15:34,610
(CHUCKLES) Noelene, I just don't
think you're understanding me.

303
00:15:44,250 --> 00:15:45,530
You know Diana?

304
00:15:46,850 --> 00:15:49,210
I mean, she was 19 -
she was only 19 -

305
00:15:49,210 --> 00:15:51,290
when she actually met Charles.

306
00:15:51,290 --> 00:15:53,210
Really?
Yeah.

307
00:15:53,210 --> 00:15:56,650
I mean, far out. I made some
horrible choices when I was 19.

308
00:15:56,650 --> 00:16:00,090
(SNORTS)
(CHUCKLES) I did.

309
00:16:00,090 --> 00:16:03,050
And he was in his 30s, too.
Like, it's a big gap.

310
00:16:05,050 --> 00:16:07,050
Do you remember when
she collapsed last year?

311
00:16:07,050 --> 00:16:08,650
That footage?
No. No.

312
00:16:08,650 --> 00:16:11,770
She collapsed, and then
she's being led off by these...

313
00:16:11,770 --> 00:16:13,890
..by these two bodyguards,

314
00:16:13,890 --> 00:16:17,450
and... and Charles is just...
he's just walking behind her,

315
00:16:17,450 --> 00:16:20,930
like he, um... like he was annoyed
by her or something.

316
00:16:22,130 --> 00:16:24,930
Sounds awful.
Yeah. I don't like him.

317
00:16:24,930 --> 00:16:27,410
I don't think she likes him either!
(LAUGHS)

318
00:16:29,530 --> 00:16:32,370
I think she's fucked.
I think she needed a Dale.

319
00:16:34,290 --> 00:16:37,690
Oh, that's my royal commentary,
anyway. I'm gonna have a shower.

320
00:16:53,090 --> 00:16:54,610
Hello. Jennings residence.

321
00:16:54,610 --> 00:16:55,850
Oh, hi. It's me.

322
00:16:55,850 --> 00:16:57,650
Hello, me.
Hi.

323
00:16:57,650 --> 00:16:59,610
Do you know where
Gran's engagement ring is?

324
00:16:59,610 --> 00:17:03,130
I know exactly where it is, darling.
Are you...?

325
00:17:03,130 --> 00:17:06,330
Would you be able to bring it to me?
I could drive down tomorrow.

326
00:17:06,330 --> 00:17:07,450
Uh, when?

327
00:17:07,450 --> 00:17:10,050
I can come first thing.
You tell me when's too early.

328
00:17:10,050 --> 00:17:11,410
Yeah, the morning's good.

329
00:17:11,410 --> 00:17:13,330
OK, I've got to go.
Thanks, Mum. Bye.

330
00:17:34,450 --> 00:17:35,930
You right there, bub?

331
00:17:35,930 --> 00:17:40,050
Hello. Um, I'm Helen Norville
from News At Six.

332
00:17:40,050 --> 00:17:44,250
I called several times yesterday
hoping to speak with Lynus Preston.

333
00:17:44,250 --> 00:17:46,370
He's on air at the moment.

334
00:17:46,370 --> 00:17:49,210
I'm his Auntie Tiny.
Come on, I'll introduce you.

335
00:17:49,210 --> 00:17:51,490
Oh, I don't want to intrude
if he's on air.

336
00:17:51,490 --> 00:17:52,890
He'll be fine.

337
00:17:52,890 --> 00:17:55,330
That was
the black Elvis himself,

338
00:17:55,330 --> 00:17:59,090
Uncle Roger Knox,
singing Koori Roads.

339
00:17:59,090 --> 00:18:02,970
And that takes us to our last
half-hour of love song dedication,

340
00:18:02,970 --> 00:18:05,050
so, all you mob out there,
you know what to do.

341
00:18:05,050 --> 00:18:07,090
Dial on in if you're a sister

342
00:18:07,090 --> 00:18:09,690
that wants to let that fine brother
know how neat he is,

343
00:18:09,690 --> 00:18:12,330
or if you're a brother
that's too shy

344
00:18:12,330 --> 00:18:14,970
to approach that
beautiful black queen.

345
00:18:14,970 --> 00:18:18,810
Just give me a call, my bred, and
I'll help you unlock that groove.

346
00:18:18,810 --> 00:18:22,530
Speaking of groove, how about
a splash of bright lights

347
00:18:22,530 --> 00:18:24,930
for the beautiful
disco queen herself?

348
00:18:24,930 --> 00:18:26,970
Beautiful black queen Marcia Hines

349
00:18:26,970 --> 00:18:30,370
with Your Love Still
Brings Me To My Knees.

350
00:18:30,370 --> 00:18:32,930
Here we go, you mob.
Don't hurt yourself, now.

351
00:18:34,290 --> 00:18:37,290
Speaking of divas,
Miss Helen Norville.

352
00:18:38,490 --> 00:18:40,850
I believe I've been
dodging your calls.

353
00:18:40,850 --> 00:18:42,770
Uh, yes, you have indeed.

354
00:18:42,770 --> 00:18:45,010
I don't want to take up
too much of your time,

355
00:18:45,010 --> 00:18:47,290
but I wanted to speak with you
about an opportunity...

356
00:18:47,290 --> 00:18:49,090
Miss Norville. Miss Norville.
..to potentially...

357
00:18:49,090 --> 00:18:50,490
We have a rule here.

358
00:18:50,490 --> 00:18:53,050
Never interrupt Marcia.

359
00:18:56,930 --> 00:18:58,570
Whoo! Ooh!

360
00:18:59,770 --> 00:19:02,770
It's a good song. You know the song?
I do. Mm-hm.

361
00:19:02,770 --> 00:19:04,530
Here. I'll turn it up for you.

362
00:19:08,730 --> 00:19:10,410
Come on, Miss Norville.
I know you can move it.

363
00:19:10,410 --> 00:19:12,730
Um, I'm...
Come on.

364
00:19:12,730 --> 00:19:14,250
First, it's in the shoulders.

365
00:19:14,250 --> 00:19:16,250
The shoulders,
and then move them hips.

366
00:19:16,250 --> 00:19:19,090
That's it. That's it! That's it!

367
00:19:20,170 --> 00:19:22,890
Whoo!
♪ This flame that burns within

368
00:19:26,130 --> 00:19:27,810
Whoo!

369
00:19:37,970 --> 00:19:39,370
Hey.

370
00:19:39,370 --> 00:19:41,010
Is she here?
No. OK.

371
00:19:43,690 --> 00:19:45,490
You might need to get it resized.

372
00:19:45,490 --> 00:19:49,450
Your gran was... well, you know...
quite an ample woman.

373
00:19:49,450 --> 00:19:51,370
Yeah, we can do that after.

374
00:19:51,370 --> 00:19:52,850
Do you have a plan?

375
00:19:52,850 --> 00:19:55,250
Yeah. I'm gonna do it here.

376
00:19:55,250 --> 00:19:58,010
I've got the chef at Mietta's
to prepare us a special meal

377
00:19:58,010 --> 00:19:59,810
and I've got four bouquets
of flowers coming.

378
00:19:59,810 --> 00:20:01,650
So, Helen will just...
she'll come home,

379
00:20:01,650 --> 00:20:03,330
she'll think it's an ordinary night,

380
00:20:03,330 --> 00:20:06,010
and then she'll walk into a sea
of flowers and fairy lights.

381
00:20:06,010 --> 00:20:07,730
Tonight?

382
00:20:07,730 --> 00:20:09,170
Yeah.

383
00:20:09,170 --> 00:20:10,730
And you're sure?

384
00:20:10,730 --> 00:20:12,650
Yeah.

385
00:20:12,650 --> 00:20:14,050
Yeah, of course.

386
00:20:14,050 --> 00:20:15,770
Sorry. I just...

387
00:20:17,170 --> 00:20:19,730
I just wasn't sure
this was gonna happen.

388
00:20:19,730 --> 00:20:21,530
(CHUCKLES) Mum.

389
00:20:29,690 --> 00:20:34,170
So, I... I'm assuming you know
that Geoff Walters railed against you

390
00:20:34,170 --> 00:20:35,970
for an entire segment
on Monday night?

391
00:20:37,170 --> 00:20:39,530
He completely misrepresented
what you were trying to say.

392
00:20:39,530 --> 00:20:43,010
He even questioned your heritage,
your Aboriginality.

393
00:20:43,010 --> 00:20:44,970
What happens when
you add milk to tea?

394
00:20:44,970 --> 00:20:47,330
Sorry?
It's still tea, isn't it?

395
00:20:49,090 --> 00:20:52,010
Listen, I read what you were
going to say on that broadcast,

396
00:20:52,010 --> 00:20:56,050
and it was passionate and forthright
and urgent, and you were cut off.

397
00:20:56,050 --> 00:20:57,250
Yeah.

398
00:20:57,250 --> 00:20:59,930
I'd like to give you
a dedicated interview.

399
00:21:01,490 --> 00:21:04,650
With me, tonight, on News At Six.

400
00:21:04,650 --> 00:21:07,570
We have a huge audience.
It's mainly middle Australian.

401
00:21:07,570 --> 00:21:09,930
You'd have the opportunity
to respond to Geoff.

402
00:21:09,930 --> 00:21:13,370
And you'd also be able to get
your message out to the viewers,

403
00:21:13,370 --> 00:21:16,130
challenging them to...
to meet you halfway.

404
00:21:16,130 --> 00:21:18,170
Why halfway?

405
00:21:18,170 --> 00:21:21,250
We could record it here.
In your studio.

406
00:21:21,250 --> 00:21:23,450
I could have a crew here
in 40 minutes.

407
00:21:23,450 --> 00:21:26,810
Just got to go to another meeting.
Now, actually.

408
00:21:28,170 --> 00:21:29,730
You can come if you want.

409
00:21:34,850 --> 00:21:36,850
The protest in Fremantle
when the fleet arrived?

410
00:21:36,850 --> 00:21:38,570
Nah, that was just the beginning.

411
00:21:38,570 --> 00:21:42,090
There's a march being organised
for Invasion Day up in Sydney.

412
00:21:42,090 --> 00:21:44,570
Now, that - that's gonna be
a proper blackout.

413
00:21:44,570 --> 00:21:47,210
Biggest corroboree
we've ever seen in our lifetime.

414
00:21:48,610 --> 00:21:50,490
Oh, I should have told you.

415
00:21:50,490 --> 00:21:52,930
You're not the only one here
that finds me, uh...

416
00:21:52,930 --> 00:21:55,170
.. urgent, was it?

417
00:21:55,170 --> 00:21:58,570
There's this French fella here
shooting a documentary about me.

418
00:21:58,570 --> 00:22:01,330
Says he's "award-winning". (LAUGHS)

419
00:22:01,330 --> 00:22:04,050
Gabriel. This is Miss Norville.

420
00:22:04,050 --> 00:22:05,850
Uh, Julian and Tim.

421
00:22:05,850 --> 00:22:07,250
Hi. Helen.

422
00:22:08,330 --> 00:22:09,890
You two know each other?
Uh, Tim...

423
00:22:09,890 --> 00:22:11,970
We both worked...
.. used to work at News At Six.

424
00:22:11,970 --> 00:22:13,290
Right.

425
00:22:13,290 --> 00:22:14,890
Well, Helen here
is trying to convince me

426
00:22:14,890 --> 00:22:17,490
that prime-time news is ready
for a troublemaker like me.

427
00:22:19,330 --> 00:22:21,610
Well, if you'll excuse me,
my beautiful Caucasian people.

428
00:22:21,610 --> 00:22:24,650
Let's get set up, s'il vous plait.

429
00:22:24,650 --> 00:22:26,810
You ain't going to hear anything
from back here. Come on, bub.

430
00:22:38,130 --> 00:22:40,970
We're gonna go to Hyde Park,
ain't we?

431
00:22:40,970 --> 00:22:42,570
Well, a few of the mob

432
00:22:42,570 --> 00:22:44,490
are still talking about
stopping at Hyde Park, Uncle,

433
00:22:44,490 --> 00:22:46,770
but we all still hold the view
that we think it's important

434
00:22:46,770 --> 00:22:50,210
to carry on the march all the way
to Lady Macquarie's Chair, yeah?

435
00:22:50,210 --> 00:22:52,570
What? Chair?
The harbour.

436
00:22:52,570 --> 00:22:55,050
Yeah, they've set up
a tent embassy there.

437
00:22:55,050 --> 00:22:56,810
They'll be waiting for us.

438
00:22:56,810 --> 00:22:59,010
You know? That's what we spoke about
in our last meeting.

439
00:22:59,010 --> 00:23:01,290
Yeah, well, I wasn't
at the last meeting.

440
00:23:01,290 --> 00:23:03,410
But I'm here now.

441
00:23:03,410 --> 00:23:06,610
And I think it's important that
we all stick together in Hyde Park.

442
00:23:06,610 --> 00:23:09,690
All the clan groups united. One mob.

443
00:23:09,690 --> 00:23:13,610
Yeah, but there's no historical
relevance in Hyde Park, Uncle.

444
00:23:13,610 --> 00:23:16,850
Look, the point of invasion
happened at the harbour, yeah?

445
00:23:16,850 --> 00:23:19,330
That's where the battle lines are.
"Battle lines"?

446
00:23:19,330 --> 00:23:21,690
You need to play the white man
at the white man's game.

447
00:23:21,690 --> 00:23:25,170
You know, if we're there screaming
and shouting and carrying on,

448
00:23:25,170 --> 00:23:26,770
they ain't gonna see us.

449
00:23:26,770 --> 00:23:28,770
They ain't gonna hear us.

450
00:23:28,770 --> 00:23:32,770
The world's just gonna see a...
mob of angry blackfellas.

451
00:23:32,770 --> 00:23:36,850
With all due respect, Uncle,
I want the world to see our anger.

452
00:23:36,850 --> 00:23:40,010
I want them to see our pain,
you know? Our humanity.

453
00:23:40,010 --> 00:23:41,650
You know, in fact, I demand it.

454
00:23:42,810 --> 00:23:47,450
I'm done waiting for a chair
at the table of democracy.

455
00:23:47,450 --> 00:23:50,370
You know, how many times
have we died

456
00:23:50,370 --> 00:23:52,250
waiting for that to happen, Uncle?

457
00:23:54,290 --> 00:23:56,690
Thank you. Thank you so much
for letting me see that.

458
00:23:56,690 --> 00:23:58,930
And... and it's... it's that passion

459
00:23:58,930 --> 00:24:01,370
that I'd really
kind of like to capture.

460
00:24:01,370 --> 00:24:04,010
And I'm just wondering if maybe...
maybe I could call the crew

461
00:24:04,010 --> 00:24:06,610
and we could... we could even
start shooting here now.

462
00:24:06,610 --> 00:24:08,650
Uh, I've got to go to lunch
with my cousins.

463
00:24:09,770 --> 00:24:12,410
Lunch with your cousins?
Mmm. It's a fortnightly thing we do.

464
00:24:12,410 --> 00:24:14,090
I can't be the one
to break tradition.

465
00:24:14,090 --> 00:24:15,450
Hey, you like yum cha, though?

466
00:24:16,730 --> 00:24:18,410
Lynus, our bulletin's at six o'clock.

467
00:24:18,410 --> 00:24:21,010
If I want to shoot that story,
edit it and get it on today...

468
00:24:22,690 --> 00:24:24,610
It's the yum cha dance.
Seriously, I'm not gonna be...

469
00:24:24,610 --> 00:24:26,890
Proper ceremonial dance, this one.
There's not enough time to do...

470
00:24:28,530 --> 00:24:30,810
They've got the deadliest
spring rolls. Come on.

471
00:24:33,290 --> 00:24:34,970
Here, wait up, Auntie! I'm hungry!

472
00:24:36,290 --> 00:24:38,290
Yep, he did the same thing to us.

473
00:24:38,290 --> 00:24:41,050
It's a test.
You probably got that.

474
00:24:41,050 --> 00:24:43,010
Oh, and as for Gabriel,

475
00:24:43,010 --> 00:24:45,290
they think he's the next
big thing in docos.

476
00:24:45,290 --> 00:24:47,010
Not that you're not great.

477
00:24:47,010 --> 00:24:49,730
I just...
Look, if I'm honest, I just...

478
00:24:49,730 --> 00:24:52,250
I don't see Lynus agreeing
to the News At Six.

479
00:24:59,930 --> 00:25:01,450
Hmm.

480
00:25:01,450 --> 00:25:04,170
This one mentions a reconciliation
meeting set up by the Queen.

481
00:25:04,170 --> 00:25:05,570
I've read that a few times,

482
00:25:05,570 --> 00:25:07,810
and I can't find any actual
evidence to support it.

483
00:25:09,170 --> 00:25:10,490
Dale Jennings.

484
00:25:10,490 --> 00:25:12,530
Hey, Dale, um, listen,
can you make sure

485
00:25:12,530 --> 00:25:14,730
that Dennis holds the slot
for the Lynus story?

486
00:25:14,730 --> 00:25:17,810
Where are you?
Uh, I'm at a yum cha restaurant.

487
00:25:17,810 --> 00:25:19,850
But have you shot it yet?
No, I haven't.

488
00:25:19,850 --> 00:25:21,290
Listen...

489
00:25:22,410 --> 00:25:25,130
Dale, Tim is here. Tim Ahern.

490
00:25:25,130 --> 00:25:29,250
He's... he's working for some French
guy doing a documentary on Lynus.

491
00:25:29,250 --> 00:25:30,970
Huh.

492
00:25:30,970 --> 00:25:33,850
Did you know that
he'd moved into doco?

493
00:25:33,850 --> 00:25:35,330
No.

494
00:25:38,010 --> 00:25:40,170
OK, can you just make sure
that they hold the story?

495
00:25:40,170 --> 00:25:41,890
OK.
Thanks.

496
00:25:49,730 --> 00:25:52,450
Kay, how are you feeling now?

497
00:25:56,970 --> 00:25:58,210
I just...

498
00:26:00,890 --> 00:26:02,250
I feel like a failure.

499
00:26:05,810 --> 00:26:09,370
I felt like everything that I do
is insignificant...

500
00:26:09,370 --> 00:26:11,330
.. and you're both ashamed of me.

501
00:26:12,530 --> 00:26:13,810
Since when?

502
00:26:15,530 --> 00:26:16,650
Since school.

503
00:26:17,810 --> 00:26:22,130
Are there more specific moments
or feelings you could mention?

504
00:26:25,090 --> 00:26:26,250
Um...

505
00:26:28,250 --> 00:26:29,850
Parent-teacher nights.

506
00:26:31,610 --> 00:26:35,170
And can you describe why
those nights were difficult?

507
00:26:37,010 --> 00:26:38,890
Well, Dad, you, um...

508
00:26:40,250 --> 00:26:42,850
..you never showed. Ever.

509
00:26:42,850 --> 00:26:43,930
Of course not.

510
00:26:43,930 --> 00:26:46,650
Well, your father was
a nightly newsreader.

511
00:26:46,650 --> 00:26:48,650
He was working to support us.

512
00:26:48,650 --> 00:26:50,810
And, Mum, you would go on
for days after

513
00:26:50,810 --> 00:26:53,050
about how embarrassing it was

514
00:26:53,050 --> 00:26:55,330
if the teachers mentioned
a single problem.

515
00:26:55,330 --> 00:26:59,530
I mean, you'd have to concede,
it was rarely a single problem.

516
00:26:59,530 --> 00:27:03,090
I mean, the things I heard
in those meetings.

517
00:27:03,090 --> 00:27:05,210
Truancy. Language.

518
00:27:05,210 --> 00:27:07,650
Congratulations were
hardly in order.

519
00:27:07,650 --> 00:27:09,810
Huh! Parent-teacher night!

520
00:27:12,130 --> 00:27:13,930
I hardly saw my father at all.

521
00:27:15,330 --> 00:27:17,290
He worked so hard,

522
00:27:17,290 --> 00:27:22,170
he was too tired to hold
his morning coffee to drink it.

523
00:27:22,170 --> 00:27:24,850
But I knew that he did that
for my benefit.

524
00:27:24,850 --> 00:27:27,650
I think what Kay might be describing

525
00:27:27,650 --> 00:27:31,730
is a sense of expectation,
disappointment...

526
00:27:31,730 --> 00:27:34,010
I was never disappointed in Kay.

527
00:27:34,010 --> 00:27:35,570
How could I be?

528
00:27:35,570 --> 00:27:38,050
Every time we spoke,
she went on and on

529
00:27:38,050 --> 00:27:39,970
about how wonderful everything was.

530
00:27:39,970 --> 00:27:42,970
Work. Boyfriends.

531
00:27:42,970 --> 00:27:45,210
Of course, I now know
it was all lies.

532
00:27:45,210 --> 00:27:47,330
Well, I learned to lie.

533
00:27:50,330 --> 00:27:53,170
I knew you both had no interest
in hearing the truth.

534
00:27:55,130 --> 00:27:56,850
Honestly!

535
00:27:56,850 --> 00:28:02,010
It's a disease of the modern world,
people casting themselves as victims.

536
00:28:05,050 --> 00:28:07,650
The fact is,
we gave you the childhood

537
00:28:07,650 --> 00:28:09,450
most people could never dream of.

538
00:28:10,530 --> 00:28:13,850
And for you to sit here and attempt
to blame your mother and I...

539
00:28:13,850 --> 00:28:15,770
I'm sorry.
.. for your own drug addiction...

540
00:28:15,770 --> 00:28:17,170
I can't do this.

541
00:28:24,890 --> 00:28:27,450
(ALL CHATTER)
Here, how much?

542
00:28:27,450 --> 00:28:28,850
Here. Please, let me... let me.

543
00:28:28,850 --> 00:28:31,970
No, no, no, no, it's fine.
We got it. It's fine.

544
00:28:31,970 --> 00:28:35,890
You come to my country, my land,
I'll show you traditional custom.

545
00:28:35,890 --> 00:28:38,490
Yum cha!
(LAUGHTER)

546
00:28:42,890 --> 00:28:45,330
Lynus, if you want to be
on the news...

547
00:28:48,050 --> 00:28:49,850
If you want to be
on the news tonight,

548
00:28:49,850 --> 00:28:51,930
we're gonna have to shoot
within the next hour.

549
00:28:53,570 --> 00:28:55,490
What about tomorrow arvo?
No, I'm sorry.

550
00:28:55,490 --> 00:28:57,570
It's... it's got to be today.

551
00:28:58,690 --> 00:29:02,730
Thing is, I've got to drop
these takeaways to my nephews.

552
00:29:06,210 --> 00:29:07,850
Alright. (CLEARS THROAT)

553
00:29:08,970 --> 00:29:10,090
Thank you.

554
00:29:12,530 --> 00:29:13,810
Helen!

555
00:29:13,810 --> 00:29:15,290
Don't, Auntie.

556
00:29:18,330 --> 00:29:20,010
Helen?

557
00:29:22,210 --> 00:29:23,490
Helen.

558
00:29:25,290 --> 00:29:27,650
Hey, just wait.
(SCOFFS) You know what?

559
00:29:27,650 --> 00:29:29,370
I HAVE waited.

560
00:29:29,370 --> 00:29:31,170
I have waited for hours.

561
00:29:31,170 --> 00:29:32,850
I am trying to give you
an opportunity

562
00:29:32,850 --> 00:29:34,730
to get your message out
to a huge audience,

563
00:29:34,730 --> 00:29:36,490
and all you have done
is wasted my time.

564
00:29:36,490 --> 00:29:38,050
Well, why does it have to be
on your time?

565
00:29:38,050 --> 00:29:40,330
How many do you actually think
are gonna watch that documentary?

566
00:29:40,330 --> 00:29:42,490
A thousand, maybe, if you're lucky?

567
00:29:42,490 --> 00:29:44,410
I'm sure you've never watched
News At Six, but it's...

568
00:29:44,410 --> 00:29:45,930
Oh, no, actually, I have.

569
00:29:45,930 --> 00:29:49,090
Let me tell you something.
No-one else cares.

570
00:29:49,090 --> 00:29:51,810
No magazines. No other networks.

571
00:29:51,810 --> 00:29:54,890
I don't see anyone else standing here
offering you this opportunity.

572
00:29:54,890 --> 00:29:57,210
And frankly, Lynus,
now I can see why.

573
00:30:08,330 --> 00:30:10,450
Great. That went well.
Yeah.

574
00:30:10,450 --> 00:30:11,930
Good script, Noelene.
Thanks.

575
00:30:11,930 --> 00:30:13,970
I think we could put in some more
colloquial terms, you know?

576
00:30:13,970 --> 00:30:16,490
Like, more Aussie,
blokey terms, like...

577
00:30:16,490 --> 00:30:18,050
I'll ask Rob.
Hi.

578
00:30:18,050 --> 00:30:20,170
Oh, you've heard
I'm joining you tonight?

579
00:30:20,170 --> 00:30:22,810
Well, just at the end,
to introduce the promo, but yeah.

580
00:30:22,810 --> 00:30:24,450
Oh, don't diminish it, Dale.

581
00:30:24,450 --> 00:30:26,730
I've told everyone
it's my newsreading debut.

582
00:30:26,730 --> 00:30:28,210
Did you draft this script?

583
00:30:28,210 --> 00:30:30,210
I did.

584
00:30:30,210 --> 00:30:32,450
Oh. Well, you've done
an admirable job.

585
00:30:32,450 --> 00:30:34,050
But I might adlib a little.

586
00:30:34,050 --> 00:30:35,570
Uh, what?

587
00:30:35,570 --> 00:30:37,330
Dale, it's not adlibbing
if I tell you.

588
00:30:37,330 --> 00:30:39,330
Er, n-no, what?

589
00:30:39,330 --> 00:30:40,770
I don't know,
maybe something like...

590
00:30:40,770 --> 00:30:43,930
.."Some people have issues
with birthdays, but not me.

591
00:30:43,930 --> 00:30:47,530
"A year-long national birthday
is... right up my alley."

592
00:30:48,730 --> 00:30:52,170
You've been looking for an excuse
to drink champagne 365 days straight.

593
00:30:53,770 --> 00:30:55,650
That's actually pretty good, Dale.

594
00:30:55,650 --> 00:30:57,130
Don't write it down!

595
00:30:57,130 --> 00:30:58,490
Write that down.

596
00:30:58,490 --> 00:31:00,170
It's funny, Dale.

597
00:31:00,170 --> 00:31:02,050
Dale! Dale Jennings!

598
00:31:02,050 --> 00:31:05,330
I have just spent half an hour
getting my ears bent sideways

599
00:31:05,330 --> 00:31:07,050
by a cretin called Harold somebody

600
00:31:07,050 --> 00:31:08,970
who used to be a royal correspondent
we used in the '70s.

601
00:31:08,970 --> 00:31:11,010
He's seen our
Charles and Diana promo.

602
00:31:11,010 --> 00:31:13,610
He's guaranteeing me

603
00:31:13,610 --> 00:31:15,930
they're gonna get News At Six
barred from the royal tour.

604
00:31:15,930 --> 00:31:17,530
Is that possible?
I gotta tell you,

605
00:31:17,530 --> 00:31:20,370
if Charles and Diana are doling out
Australian television interviews

606
00:31:20,370 --> 00:31:22,490
and we're blacklisted,
we are royally fucked!

607
00:31:22,490 --> 00:31:25,050
They rarely do interviews and don't
have any planned for this trip.

608
00:31:25,050 --> 00:31:27,370
I don't mean to be rude here,
Noelene, but are you sure?

609
00:31:27,370 --> 00:31:30,690
Well, I say let's... get him
on the desk, argue it out live.

610
00:31:30,690 --> 00:31:33,450
Right, mate, just watch yourself.
This bloke's beyond camp.

611
00:31:33,450 --> 00:31:35,610
He's like... Liberace
in a Christmas cake.

612
00:31:35,610 --> 00:31:37,690
He acted like
I just shat on his religion.

613
00:31:37,690 --> 00:31:40,250
Do we have his number?
Yes, yes. Ask Jean.

614
00:31:40,250 --> 00:31:41,610
Great. Great.

615
00:31:42,770 --> 00:31:46,570
Tonight at six,
the royal marriage in turmoil.

616
00:31:46,570 --> 00:31:48,530
Beyond the gossip,
beyond the rumours -

617
00:31:48,530 --> 00:31:51,170
tonight, Dale Jennings
presents exclusive evidence

618
00:31:51,170 --> 00:31:53,890
of the fractured union
of Charles and Diana.

619
00:31:53,890 --> 00:31:56,010
A royal marriage in crisis,

620
00:31:56,010 --> 00:31:58,250
a bicentennial tour in question,

621
00:31:58,250 --> 00:32:00,290
and a princess adrift.

622
00:32:00,290 --> 00:32:03,090
Tonight, only on News At Six.
(PHONE RINGS)

623
00:32:04,290 --> 00:32:05,410
Helen Norville.

624
00:32:05,410 --> 00:32:07,650
Now, that's
what I call a promo.

625
00:32:07,650 --> 00:32:10,410
What's this...
"exclusive evidence" you have?

626
00:32:10,410 --> 00:32:12,010
Nothing. I mean, it's just that.

627
00:32:12,010 --> 00:32:14,930
Charles and Diana have been
living separately for a bit.

628
00:32:14,930 --> 00:32:18,410
Just more Lindsay faff. God, I can't
believe he's still in the job.

629
00:32:18,410 --> 00:32:21,050
Sorry to say, tonight's ratings
are going to be huge, Helen.

630
00:32:21,050 --> 00:32:23,650
Could buy Lindsay another year.
Hmm.

631
00:32:23,650 --> 00:32:26,930
Helen, if it's royal stories
that bother you,

632
00:32:26,930 --> 00:32:29,090
maybe it's not Lindsay
who needs to move on.

633
00:32:29,090 --> 00:32:30,810
Well, I would,
I mean, I fucking would

634
00:32:30,810 --> 00:32:32,450
if any other network would have me.

635
00:32:32,450 --> 00:32:35,850
What? They'd snap you up.
Why wouldn't they?

636
00:32:35,850 --> 00:32:37,730
You are immensely valuable.

637
00:32:39,130 --> 00:32:42,090
News At Six is lucky to have you
and they got you for a song.

638
00:32:42,090 --> 00:32:43,890
You'd get double
at any other network.

639
00:32:45,810 --> 00:32:48,170
Look, I probably shouldn't
be telling you this,

640
00:32:48,170 --> 00:32:50,930
but, um... I was on the brink
of giving Lindsay the arse

641
00:32:50,930 --> 00:32:52,370
before I got the arse.

642
00:32:52,370 --> 00:32:53,970
Really?

643
00:32:53,970 --> 00:32:57,250
And you're not the only News At Six
staff member who wants him gone.

644
00:32:57,250 --> 00:32:58,450
Well, who?

645
00:32:58,450 --> 00:33:00,290
Oh, that's not the point. Helen...
Rob?

646
00:33:00,290 --> 00:33:01,850
Helen, I can't talk
about it, alright?

647
00:33:01,850 --> 00:33:03,130
Dennis?

648
00:33:04,570 --> 00:33:06,810
There's a Lynus Preston
here to see you.

649
00:33:06,810 --> 00:33:08,490
I gotta go.

650
00:33:15,130 --> 00:33:17,170
Audience of millions, you reckon?

651
00:33:18,730 --> 00:33:20,210
Lynus, you've left it so late

652
00:33:20,210 --> 00:33:22,210
that there's probably not even
enough time to edit it.

653
00:33:23,410 --> 00:33:25,330
No cuts sound good to me.

654
00:33:28,130 --> 00:33:29,730
After you, Miss Norville.

655
00:33:35,650 --> 00:33:38,450
You have to mix a few shades
together to get my complexion.

656
00:33:38,450 --> 00:33:39,970
Oh...
I'm just joking.

657
00:33:39,970 --> 00:33:42,050
Oh. (LAUGHS AWKWARDLY)

658
00:33:42,050 --> 00:33:43,930
Um, yep. Yeah.

659
00:33:47,450 --> 00:33:49,490
You good?
Mmm.

660
00:33:49,490 --> 00:33:50,930
OK.

661
00:33:53,530 --> 00:33:55,290
Lynus Preston,

662
00:33:55,290 --> 00:33:59,890
last weekend, you interrupted
a national broadcast

663
00:33:59,890 --> 00:34:02,050
during the re-enactment
of the First Fleet.

664
00:34:02,050 --> 00:34:06,370
You were arrested
and may face court.

665
00:34:06,370 --> 00:34:07,970
What were you trying to say?

666
00:34:09,290 --> 00:34:12,690
Australia was invaded,
not colonised.

667
00:34:12,690 --> 00:34:16,210
You know, this is
an illegal occupation.

668
00:34:16,210 --> 00:34:17,690
You broke your own law

669
00:34:17,690 --> 00:34:21,730
and your precious King George III
stated very clearly

670
00:34:21,730 --> 00:34:24,810
that in order to claim land...
(CHUCKLES)

671
00:34:24,810 --> 00:34:27,010
..it has to be unowned.

672
00:34:27,010 --> 00:34:29,210
And Captain Cook knew
that there were owners

673
00:34:29,210 --> 00:34:31,170
that had a recognised law.

674
00:34:32,290 --> 00:34:35,210
I don't think that very many people
would deny that history.

675
00:34:36,530 --> 00:34:39,650
But... it was 200 years ago.

676
00:34:39,650 --> 00:34:42,010
Yeah, but that illegal act
is being upheld to this day.

677
00:34:42,010 --> 00:34:47,170
And not just upheld,
but is being celebrated - by you.

678
00:34:47,170 --> 00:34:51,450
You know, you present these
pretty ships as a celebration,

679
00:34:51,450 --> 00:34:53,130
but really,
they're just are-enactment

680
00:34:53,130 --> 00:34:55,170
of rape, murder
and brutal savagery...

681
00:34:55,170 --> 00:34:57,330
OK. Can you just pause for a second?

682
00:34:58,970 --> 00:35:00,170
Um...

683
00:35:01,330 --> 00:35:03,210
You're just delivering a diatribe.

684
00:35:05,330 --> 00:35:06,930
People are just gonna switch off.

685
00:35:06,930 --> 00:35:09,170
What, you'd rather
I put on a little show?

686
00:35:12,490 --> 00:35:15,730
I've watched you, Lynus, and you do
know how to connect to people.

687
00:35:18,570 --> 00:35:22,490
So, maybe just try putting a little
bit more of yourself into it.

688
00:35:25,010 --> 00:35:26,970
Talk about...

689
00:35:26,970 --> 00:35:28,370
..how you feel.

690
00:35:33,130 --> 00:35:34,610
Yeah?
Yeah.

691
00:35:34,610 --> 00:35:36,170
OK. You good?

692
00:35:37,770 --> 00:35:39,610
Good?
Mm-hm.

693
00:35:41,770 --> 00:35:44,170
Lynus, it's been argued

694
00:35:44,170 --> 00:35:50,250
that you have both Aboriginal
heritage and Anglo-Saxon.

695
00:35:51,450 --> 00:35:53,250
So...

696
00:35:53,250 --> 00:35:55,810
.. why claim only the Aboriginal side?

697
00:35:55,810 --> 00:35:57,570
Well, but I don't.

698
00:35:57,570 --> 00:36:00,930
You know, let me tell you,
I may be part Irish,

699
00:36:00,930 --> 00:36:03,890
but I haven't been a guest of honour
at any St Paddy's Day,

700
00:36:03,890 --> 00:36:05,530
and I love myself a Guinness.

701
00:36:07,290 --> 00:36:09,730
When people look at you,
they... they...

702
00:36:09,730 --> 00:36:11,530
.. they see a confident DJ.

703
00:36:12,970 --> 00:36:14,650
So, some might wonder...

704
00:36:16,250 --> 00:36:19,690
..how can you really be feeling
the pain of two centuries ago?

705
00:36:23,330 --> 00:36:26,650
You know, my eldest brother
passed away two months ago.

706
00:36:26,650 --> 00:36:30,570
He was 55 years old.
And that's young, you know?

707
00:36:30,570 --> 00:36:34,130
And my brother before that,
he died at 49.

708
00:36:34,130 --> 00:36:37,370
And now I'm the only brother left,
and I'm 33 years old.

709
00:36:38,930 --> 00:36:40,770
You know, when people
were talking about

710
00:36:40,770 --> 00:36:42,290
the life expectancy of our mob,

711
00:36:42,290 --> 00:36:45,210
my eldest brother would say,
these whitefellas,

712
00:36:45,210 --> 00:36:50,330
they think we die because of
disease and chronic illness,

713
00:36:50,330 --> 00:36:53,690
alcoholism, drugs, violence,
suicide, you name it,

714
00:36:53,690 --> 00:36:56,090
but none of that,
none of that matters.

715
00:36:56,090 --> 00:36:57,370
It's all bullshit.

716
00:36:58,490 --> 00:37:02,610
Because our mob dies
from a broken heart.

717
00:37:04,170 --> 00:37:09,090
And every time we bury one of our
loved ones way before their time,

718
00:37:09,090 --> 00:37:11,850
we are constantly reminded

719
00:37:11,850 --> 00:37:14,650
about everything
our people have gone through.

720
00:37:17,770 --> 00:37:20,210
And until we're ready
to tell that story

721
00:37:20,210 --> 00:37:22,930
and speak that truth
in this country,

722
00:37:22,930 --> 00:37:26,410
our mob will continue to die
way before their time.

723
00:37:28,210 --> 00:37:30,050
And I'm tired of burying my family.

724
00:37:36,610 --> 00:37:38,370
Recovery's never
a straight line.

725
00:37:38,370 --> 00:37:41,690
It's rare that residents don't have
at least one relapse.

726
00:37:41,690 --> 00:37:44,530
You suspect she's actually relapsed?

727
00:37:44,530 --> 00:37:46,650
No. Not necessarily.

728
00:37:46,650 --> 00:37:49,250
We didn't get any explanation.
They just found her room empty.

729
00:37:49,250 --> 00:37:51,690
Oh, the amount of money we've paid!

730
00:37:51,690 --> 00:37:53,770
I know. It's very upsetting.

731
00:37:53,770 --> 00:37:55,850
Addiction is a terrible illness.

732
00:37:55,850 --> 00:37:59,370
Oh, for goodness' sake.
Is it an illness? Or is it a choice?

733
00:37:59,370 --> 00:38:01,090
You could at least be consistent!

734
00:38:01,090 --> 00:38:03,450
Er, Mrs Walters,
I've been here many times,

735
00:38:03,450 --> 00:38:05,050
and there's one thing
that gives me confidence

736
00:38:05,050 --> 00:38:07,170
for a resident and their family,

737
00:38:07,170 --> 00:38:11,330
and that's if someone continues
to show up for them.

738
00:38:11,330 --> 00:38:13,330
(GROANS) Goodbye.

739
00:38:28,890 --> 00:38:30,730
Now, Gerry, you famously enjoy...

740
00:38:30,730 --> 00:38:31,930
.. enjoy...

741
00:38:31,930 --> 00:38:34,490
Huh... mmmm-urrrr...

742
00:38:34,490 --> 00:38:37,610
So, Gerry, you famously enjoy
a birthday... Arrgh!

743
00:38:38,130 --> 00:38:40,650
Uh... Uh-huh...

744
00:38:40,650 --> 00:38:43,930
So, Gerry... (LAUGHS)

745
00:38:43,930 --> 00:38:45,730
Huh! Hoo! Hoo!

746
00:38:45,730 --> 00:38:48,370
Any excuse to drink champagne
365 days a y...

747
00:38:49,370 --> 00:38:50,610
Huuuuh!

748
00:38:50,610 --> 00:38:53,690
Any excuse to drink cham...
Any excuse. Excuse.

749
00:38:53,690 --> 00:38:55,010
Uhh-uhh! (CLEARS THROAT)

750
00:38:55,010 --> 00:38:59,290
Any excuse to drink champagne
365 days a year. (LAUGHS)

751
00:39:00,490 --> 00:39:02,210
Dale.

752
00:39:02,210 --> 00:39:04,690
There you are. Come on.

753
00:39:04,690 --> 00:39:06,330
Oh.

754
00:39:06,330 --> 00:39:07,570
Need anything?

755
00:39:07,570 --> 00:39:08,930
Uh, nope.
OK.

756
00:39:08,930 --> 00:39:12,370
Tonight, the fractured royal
marriage - an explosive report

757
00:39:12,370 --> 00:39:15,770
on the troubled union of
Prince Charles and Princess Diana.

758
00:39:15,770 --> 00:39:18,610
We speak to one of
the bicentennial protest leaders

759
00:39:18,610 --> 00:39:21,290
who tells us why
he refuses to celebrate.

760
00:39:21,290 --> 00:39:23,170
And we're joined by a special guest

761
00:39:23,170 --> 00:39:26,930
for the world premiere
of our 1988 network promo.

762
00:39:26,930 --> 00:39:29,250
I'm Dale Jennings.
And I'm Helen Norville.

763
00:39:29,250 --> 00:39:31,330
Welcome to News At Six.

764
00:39:31,330 --> 00:39:33,290
As Prince Charles
and Princess Diana's

765
00:39:33,290 --> 00:39:34,730
bicentennial tour approaches...

766
00:39:34,730 --> 00:39:36,170
How'd it go?
.. evidence is emerging...

767
00:39:36,170 --> 00:39:37,410
She knows what she's doing.

768
00:39:37,410 --> 00:39:39,330
.. suggesting the royal marriage
is in grave trouble.

769
00:39:39,330 --> 00:39:42,170
A string of cancellations
and absences

770
00:39:42,170 --> 00:39:43,770
has royal-watchers speculating

771
00:39:43,770 --> 00:39:45,970
that the couple may have
already separated.

772
00:39:45,970 --> 00:39:48,850
Dale Jennings filed this report.

773
00:39:48,850 --> 00:39:51,650
For most of this decade,
the Prince and Princess of Wales

774
00:39:51,650 --> 00:39:53,490
have appeared to be living
a fairytale...

775
00:39:53,490 --> 00:39:56,250
Howard Page. Royal correspondent.

776
00:39:56,250 --> 00:39:59,570
I'm sorry, but if I am expected
to respond to this, I...

777
00:39:59,570 --> 00:40:01,450
90 seconds!

778
00:40:01,450 --> 00:40:02,930
Hello. I'm Helen.

779
00:40:02,930 --> 00:40:05,410
Hi. Nice to meet you. Welcome.

780
00:40:05,410 --> 00:40:07,770
In November, Diana was
conspicuously absent

781
00:40:07,770 --> 00:40:09,850
from the wedding of
Lady Amanda Knatchbull,

782
00:40:09,850 --> 00:40:11,090
an event attended by...

783
00:40:11,090 --> 00:40:13,010
Noelene! Go down to Murray's
with Dennis now!

784
00:40:13,010 --> 00:40:14,890
European footage just landed.
Follow me.

785
00:40:14,890 --> 00:40:16,050
Uh, of what?

786
00:40:16,050 --> 00:40:18,170
Of Charles and Di in Berlin
looking like happy families.

787
00:40:18,170 --> 00:40:19,770
Now, Lindsay wants two minutes
after the break.

788
00:40:19,770 --> 00:40:21,010
Has something being dropped?
Yes.

789
00:40:21,010 --> 00:40:22,810
When you write the intro,
make sure you give it to Dale -

790
00:40:22,810 --> 00:40:24,690
not Helen, Dale -
at the last minute!

791
00:40:24,690 --> 00:40:25,850
Go, go, go, go, go!

792
00:40:25,850 --> 00:40:27,370
30 seconds.

793
00:40:27,370 --> 00:40:30,890
And also, there's gonna be
a change after the break.

794
00:40:30,890 --> 00:40:32,290
What?
Hmm? What do you mean?

795
00:40:32,290 --> 00:40:33,850
I don't know. Er, breaking news?

796
00:40:33,850 --> 00:40:36,610
Noelene's going to bring
new scripts down to the studio.

797
00:40:37,690 --> 00:40:39,770
What are you doing?
Can you find out what the story is?

798
00:40:39,770 --> 00:40:41,650
I'm calling Lindsay.
I want to know what it is.

799
00:40:43,370 --> 00:40:45,050
No, Jean. No.

800
00:40:46,090 --> 00:40:48,170
10 seconds!

801
00:40:48,170 --> 00:40:50,250
Do you know what the story is?
Like, what's the...

802
00:40:50,250 --> 00:40:52,770
And in five. Four.

803
00:40:53,970 --> 00:40:56,050
Can you tell us what the story is?
You could find out.

804
00:40:57,690 --> 00:41:00,410
Well, long-time royal-watcher
Harold Page

805
00:41:00,410 --> 00:41:03,890
has tracked Charles and Diana's
union for years,

806
00:41:03,890 --> 00:41:05,730
from courtship to marriage,

807
00:41:05,730 --> 00:41:08,410
through the births
of the two princes.

808
00:41:08,410 --> 00:41:11,610
Harold, is the royal marriage over?

809
00:41:11,610 --> 00:41:13,490
Absolutely not.

810
00:41:13,490 --> 00:41:15,570
That is absurd and offensive

811
00:41:15,570 --> 00:41:17,490
and there's not
one whit of truth in it.

812
00:41:17,490 --> 00:41:20,530
Well, how do you explain the months
the royal couple have spent apart?

813
00:41:20,530 --> 00:41:23,610
Princess Diana is,
as we all know, a city girl.

814
00:41:23,610 --> 00:41:27,930
Charles recognises that in his wife
and respects it.

815
00:41:27,930 --> 00:41:32,130
And that is the key to the absolute
strength of the royal marriage.

816
00:41:32,130 --> 00:41:35,090
Now that the two children
are at school,

817
00:41:35,090 --> 00:41:38,690
the princess is enjoying discos,
musicals, parties.

818
00:41:38,690 --> 00:41:40,650
The prince, of course, has...
(CHUCKLES)

819
00:41:40,650 --> 00:41:41,930
.. been there, done that...

820
00:41:41,930 --> 00:41:43,490
Oh, so you admit
there is incompatibility?

821
00:41:43,490 --> 00:41:44,690
Not at all.

822
00:41:50,490 --> 00:41:54,210
Well, many people can see the rift.
It's obvious in their body language.

823
00:41:54,210 --> 00:41:57,850
Well, they must be seeing something
very different to what I'm seeing.

824
00:41:57,850 --> 00:42:00,170
You need a typist?
No, it's faster if I do it.

825
00:42:01,650 --> 00:42:04,250
When we first met Diana
six years ago,

826
00:42:04,250 --> 00:42:07,090
she was, to be blunt,
rather frumpy and shy.

827
00:42:07,090 --> 00:42:09,850
Now, thanks to the love
of the prince,

828
00:42:09,850 --> 00:42:13,090
she has blossomed before our eyes.

829
00:42:13,090 --> 00:42:14,650
What you in the media forget

830
00:42:14,650 --> 00:42:17,450
is that behind the titles
of prince and princess

831
00:42:17,450 --> 00:42:19,930
are two human beings

832
00:42:19,930 --> 00:42:23,330
building a successful marriage
under enormous pressure,

833
00:42:23,330 --> 00:42:25,250
and they do that
not just for themselves

834
00:42:25,250 --> 00:42:28,050
but for all of us, their subjects,

835
00:42:28,050 --> 00:42:31,570
because they are raising
our future king.

836
00:42:31,570 --> 00:42:34,690
Running this sort of
baseless gutter journalism,

837
00:42:34,690 --> 00:42:38,050
I consider to be nothing less
than an attack on the monarchy,

838
00:42:38,050 --> 00:42:41,210
and by extension,
an attack on all of us,

839
00:42:41,210 --> 00:42:43,810
the loyal citizens
of the Commonwealth.

840
00:42:43,810 --> 00:42:45,810
Well, Mr Page, that's all
we have time for, I'm afraid.

841
00:42:45,810 --> 00:42:48,090
We'll be back right after the break.

842
00:42:48,090 --> 00:42:49,490
And we're out.

843
00:42:49,490 --> 00:42:53,290
It's just more Charles and Di stuff
that appeared in Germany.

844
00:42:53,290 --> 00:42:55,090
Well, then what have they cut?

845
00:42:55,090 --> 00:42:56,890
I haven't heard
they're dropping anything.

846
00:42:58,930 --> 00:43:00,690
(PHONE RINGS)
No!

847
00:43:08,090 --> 00:43:09,730
They're asking for you
down on the floor.

848
00:43:09,730 --> 00:43:11,250
No, I'm gonna knock off early.

849
00:43:12,410 --> 00:43:13,690
Why isn't anyone answering?

850
00:43:13,690 --> 00:43:15,610
Jean isn't, Noelene isn't.
I'm not sure.

851
00:43:15,610 --> 00:43:17,290
Are they taking calls
from the control booth?

852
00:43:17,290 --> 00:43:18,730
That's all the information I've got.

853
00:43:18,730 --> 00:43:20,330
Well, you can't add
two minutes of footage...

854
00:43:20,330 --> 00:43:22,930
Helen, I don't know.
What are they dropping, Noelene?

855
00:43:22,930 --> 00:43:24,770
Charles and Diana are in Germany.
No.

856
00:43:24,770 --> 00:43:26,850
There's lots of footage of them
looking devoted to each other.

857
00:43:26,850 --> 00:43:28,330
What have they cut?
I don't know.

858
00:43:28,330 --> 00:43:30,330
Not what are they adding!
I've just been writing the intro!

859
00:43:30,330 --> 00:43:31,850
Are they dropping Lynus?
I don't know.

860
00:43:31,850 --> 00:43:33,770
And we are back!
Great!

861
00:43:35,010 --> 00:43:38,090
In five! Four!

862
00:43:42,450 --> 00:43:46,450
In news just to hand,
after weeks of cancelled appearances,

863
00:43:46,450 --> 00:43:50,650
it appears the Prince and Princess
of Wales have finally re-emerged...

864
00:43:50,650 --> 00:43:52,690
Goodnight, Jean.
.. commencing a world tour of Germany.

865
00:43:52,690 --> 00:43:53,770
Goodnight.

866
00:43:53,770 --> 00:43:56,610
Their Royal Highnesses appeared
warm, affectionate and relaxed,

867
00:43:56,610 --> 00:44:00,130
raising hopes that their bicentennial
tour will proceed as planned.

868
00:44:00,130 --> 00:44:02,450
Our European correspondent has more.

869
00:44:02,450 --> 00:44:03,610
How much longer?

870
00:44:03,610 --> 00:44:05,370
Uh, there's still, like,
sport and weather and...

871
00:44:05,370 --> 00:44:06,730
They're done 6:30.

872
00:44:06,730 --> 00:44:08,690
.. for a week-long tour
of the country.

873
00:44:08,690 --> 00:44:10,330
20 seconds!

874
00:44:10,330 --> 00:44:12,090
(WHISPERS) Hi. How are you?

875
00:44:14,690 --> 00:44:16,330
Helen.

876
00:44:16,330 --> 00:44:18,650
You've got the interview.
We will find another spot for it.

877
00:44:18,650 --> 00:44:20,890
Dale, we both know that
that is absolute bullshit.

878
00:44:20,890 --> 00:44:22,290
And in five!

879
00:44:22,290 --> 00:44:23,970
I'm sorry.
Four!

880
00:44:23,970 --> 00:44:25,650
I'm gonna get a drink.

881
00:44:26,930 --> 00:44:28,370
Well, returning once again...
Hang on.

882
00:44:28,370 --> 00:44:30,730
..to our nation's
bicentennial celebration,

883
00:44:30,730 --> 00:44:34,490
the News At Six team have recently
joined the entire network family

884
00:44:34,490 --> 00:44:37,330
to participate in
a very special promo.

885
00:44:37,330 --> 00:44:42,050
Australia's Year is
a specially composed 1988 anthem,

886
00:44:42,050 --> 00:44:45,690
and joining the chorus is
our favourite adopted Australian,

887
00:44:45,690 --> 00:44:47,050
Mr Gerry Carroll.

888
00:44:47,050 --> 00:44:48,850
Now, Gerry, you love a birthday,
don't you?

889
00:44:48,850 --> 00:44:50,250
Well, Dale, I'm the kind of person

890
00:44:50,250 --> 00:44:53,130
who likes to celebrate
a birth MONTH, not a birthday.

891
00:44:53,130 --> 00:44:55,490
So the prospect of
a year-long national birthday,

892
00:44:55,490 --> 00:44:56,650
it's music to my ears.

893
00:44:56,650 --> 00:44:59,810
Any excuse to drink champagne
365 days straight. (LAUGHS)

894
00:44:59,810 --> 00:45:03,530
Well, I'm already celebrating, so
I'm aiming for, I don't know, 400?

895
00:45:03,530 --> 00:45:04,970
Too good.

896
00:45:09,250 --> 00:45:11,690
We'll be back with sport.

897
00:45:11,690 --> 00:45:16,810
But right now, let's enjoy the world
premiere of Australia's Year.

898
00:45:16,810 --> 00:45:21,130
♪ Can you feel it
getting closer?

899
00:45:33,930 --> 00:45:38,250
♪ Can you hear it,
the excitement?

900
00:46:21,970 --> 00:46:23,690
It's pretty catchy!

901
00:46:25,330 --> 00:46:26,730
And we're out!

902
00:46:31,730 --> 00:46:33,210
Hello?

903
00:46:33,210 --> 00:46:34,690
Lynus, it's Helen Norville.

904
00:46:35,970 --> 00:46:37,490
Did you watch?

905
00:46:37,490 --> 00:46:39,410
Oh, I enjoyed it.

906
00:46:39,410 --> 00:46:42,850
You know, the first half telling me
that the royal marriage is over,

907
00:46:42,850 --> 00:46:45,890
and then right at the last minute,
everything's fine.

908
00:46:48,530 --> 00:46:50,730
I'm sorry.

909
00:46:50,730 --> 00:46:55,050
Miss Norville, we've been
fighting for 200 years.

910
00:46:55,050 --> 00:46:59,490
And lucky for your mob,
we're a very patient people.

911
00:46:59,490 --> 00:47:03,250
Now, if you'll excuse me,
I've got a march to organise.

912
00:47:24,130 --> 00:47:25,450
Uh...

913
00:47:28,410 --> 00:47:31,250
Wait. Helen, I just want you
to wait just a second...

914
00:47:31,250 --> 00:47:33,770
You know, Dale, when you struck
that deal with Lindsay,

915
00:47:33,770 --> 00:47:36,730
did he just say, "Tell her whatever
you like, but just shut her up,

916
00:47:36,730 --> 00:47:38,530
"and then we can do whatever we want
in the end anyway"?

917
00:47:38,530 --> 00:47:39,730
No, no. It didn't...

918
00:47:39,730 --> 00:47:41,730
You know, you did not seem
even remotely surprised.

919
00:47:41,730 --> 00:47:43,250
When?
When he pulled it.

920
00:47:43,250 --> 00:47:45,010
I was on air. I was trying
to get through the bulletin.

921
00:47:45,010 --> 00:47:46,610
Could you just wait? Wait!
What?

922
00:47:46,610 --> 00:47:48,450
Please, just give me a second
to just...

923
00:47:56,850 --> 00:47:58,930
Surprise. God.

924
00:47:58,930 --> 00:48:00,610
So, this is my second attempt
at this,

925
00:48:00,610 --> 00:48:02,250
and I didn't think
it could go any worse, but...

926
00:48:02,250 --> 00:48:03,970
OK, Dale, so, your second attempt
at what?

927
00:48:03,970 --> 00:48:05,810
Let me just... let me just...
Can I just...

928
00:48:05,810 --> 00:48:07,090
No, no, no.
I feel like I want...

929
00:48:07,090 --> 00:48:08,530
Let me just get through this,

930
00:48:08,530 --> 00:48:10,290
'cause I've had the words
in my head for days.

931
00:48:13,010 --> 00:48:15,130
Helen... OK.

932
00:48:15,130 --> 00:48:19,130
We've been in each other's lives
for two years.

933
00:48:19,130 --> 00:48:22,050
Now... um...

934
00:48:23,930 --> 00:48:26,970
(SIGHS) No-one knows me like you.

935
00:48:26,970 --> 00:48:28,730
No-one challenges me like you.

936
00:48:28,730 --> 00:48:32,410
No-one knows every part of me
like you.

937
00:48:33,930 --> 00:48:35,610
And I hope you feel
the same way, 'cause...

938
00:48:37,890 --> 00:48:39,410
..I love you.

939
00:48:47,050 --> 00:48:48,410
Helen Norville...

940
00:48:49,930 --> 00:48:52,010
.. will you do me the honour
of being my wife?

941
00:48:58,250 --> 00:48:59,930
Dale, I love you so much.

942
00:49:01,690 --> 00:49:03,130
So, so much.

943
00:49:07,010 --> 00:49:08,490
But I... I can't.

944
00:49:15,130 --> 00:49:16,930
I c... I-I can't.

945
00:49:28,890 --> 00:49:30,890
Ooh! (SNIFFS)

946
00:49:30,890 --> 00:49:32,810
Hey, it's fine.
OK.

947
00:49:34,250 --> 00:49:35,970
Um...
I-it's fine.

948
00:49:35,970 --> 00:49:37,370
OK.
I'm...

949
00:49:37,370 --> 00:49:39,930
I'm so, so sorry. I'm just...

950
00:49:49,770 --> 00:49:51,450
Oh...

951
00:50:31,050 --> 00:50:33,290
We had a phone call
from Geoff Walters's daughter

952
00:50:33,290 --> 00:50:34,970
wanting to speak to you.

953
00:50:34,970 --> 00:50:36,810
Reporting on
our own families now?

954
00:50:36,810 --> 00:50:39,010
That's a line we've never crossed.

955
00:50:39,010 --> 00:50:41,410
I want to be compensated
for the story.

956
00:50:41,410 --> 00:50:42,850
You're paying her?

957
00:50:42,850 --> 00:50:46,650
She has a drug addiction, Lindsay!

958
00:50:48,090 --> 00:50:50,210
An opportunity's come up,

959
00:50:50,210 --> 00:50:51,890
and with the Christmas break
starting tomorrow,

960
00:50:51,890 --> 00:50:54,090
I just thought it'd be good
to follow up soon.

961
00:50:54,090 --> 00:50:56,490
Obnoxious Charlie Tate!

962
00:50:56,490 --> 00:50:58,450
Please don't leave messages
like that for me at work.

963
00:50:58,450 --> 00:50:59,930
Messages like what?

964
00:50:59,930 --> 00:51:03,410
That wasn't THE cameraman, was it?
The one you told me about?

965
00:51:03,410 --> 00:51:06,450
Look at us! The Russell Street gang!
We're back together again!
