Looking forward to the new series. Not just Rod Marsh satisfying the sports fan in me but Tina Arena and Paul Mercurio could give me hints on researching the Italian side of my family.

For the next series of  Australian W.D.Y.T.Y.A. I would suggest Mercia Deane-Johns(Actress who plays Jake's mum on Packed to the Rafters).From what she has told me she knows of her family history it sounds VERY interesting.I don't know if she would agree to do it but it would make a good episode.

Excellent thanks Diana.  ;D

Isn't this a non ratings period though? Not that I'm complaining - it'll be good to see some decent TV during this time - like in the UK when they air all their best programmes over the 'silly season'.  ;D

Excellent news! 

Like Ruskie, I'll be delighted to have something to watch during the silly season (as well as cricket, of course!  ;D )
