@molk.bsky.social I wonder if they are doing the same in Australia... The whole idea of AI changing John Candy's surname dependent on which version of English they use... would likely creep out the John Candy estate. Imagine this as "John Lollies".

100% expecting SRN to be on the market within a month. This is no "on our own terms" departure. This is a boardroom coup to get the Caralis heirs out of the picture, so they can extract the value out of SRN's assets: especially 2SM in Sydney, unimpeded. radiotoday.com.au/george-caral...

Very interesting statistic: come the 2027/28 financial year there will be for the first time in 38 years, both a Australian and UK version of Play School. Hopefully those planning the CBeebies reboot visit Ultimo to learn how the ABC kept our Play School in front of today's trends.

@sydneycitytv.bsky.social: I think those TVQ-produced NQ updates were likely done in the wake of the closure of the TNQ news service in 2001. Master Control for SC10 QLD ultimately moved out of state in late August 2003. "Last Days at Channel Ten" is a must watch.
