@DarrenMcErlain @ABCTV Yes Darren, certainly did. One of my many good ABC experiences- during late 1960’s working in Sydney. Neville filed excellent reports for radio current affairs.

@RayMartin @ABCTV I have been trying to confirm a 4Corners fact for 20+ years in my research. Did you ever work with my former media lecturer and ex4Corners lecturer, author of News Not Views - the late Neville Petersen? #fourcorners

60 years of @abctv FourCorners tonight at 8:30. Ramon showing me “The Farm” here in 1974 - we were the first Aussie crew in after the Rev. The show, built and maintained by people I know to be the best in the biz, critical viewing needed now more than ever. #fourcorners

Hendo. Bloody hell, you were the best. It didn’t take the most perfect tied-ties or shiniest shoes I ever saw, for everyone to know this fact. Why did my act always have to follow yours? Hope to work with you again, in another life my friend. #hendo

@saffyishere @cmtesta Campaigns are just that... campaigns! No guarantee of success. Saddened by WIN decision but clearly playing field is impossibly weighed against the regional broadcasters. Maybe the public outcry wasn’t loud enough.

@cmtesta So was the campaign , led by @RayMartin to continue regional news a farce?

Feeling bittersweet plugging our penultimate #abccomedy show tonight. Just when our young, bright comedy talents are kicking goals, the lights are turned out on laughter. But why am I surprised? Politicians have no sense of humour. #athomealonetogether

Join me at home in 15 minutes, and you can be just as outraged as me. #athomealonetogether

We’re not out of this yet, cool cats. Join me for a bev tonight. Episode 5, 9pm. #abctv #athomealonetogether

55 years ago, the ABC were kind enough to give me a look-in as a cadet journo. Tonight, I return home. Join me, 9pm #abccomedy

Yes, this is definitely happening, and is definitely serious - why don’t people believe me when I say I actually bake in my spare time?? #athomealonetogether #abccomedy

Two VC heroes - NZ Willie Apiata with Aust Keith Payne. Tomorrow Keith celebrates 50 years since he was awarded VC for unbelievable valour in Vietnam. Willie surprised Keith. Champion.

Lauren Chandon , after 130 operations is racing me up Balmoral hill on Sunday for Humpty Dumpty foundation. Please donate - she’s a champion.

For a kid never meant to make it to his teenage years, 43 is still too young to depart. @qkenihan told me “cope with the bad, celebrate the good.” He had a lot to celebrate.

I'm a dad to a daughter, a brother to 3 sisters & a lover of women. I'm proud to support #savethebox for gynaecological cancer research.

SBS 8.30 tonight. Best TV of the year - well, almost.

The set for Look Me In The Eye- 8.30 SBS. Seriously good tv.

Seen my socks?

My newest best mates- wonderful Latakia dancers.

Very emotional Awards night. Makes Logies look pretty bloody ordinary.
