Every day my dog barks at me before leaving for work and my reply to him always is 'I also don't want to go that Jurassic Park, but I'm helpless.'

but there’s also this brief, beautiful moment of hope, lest I forget

Finally finished watching the last season of The Newsreader and I must say I'm not ready to say goodbye.

It's my personal opinion but I found the last episode ended in the middle of a conflict.

I love LOVE Helen and Dale, the unconditional love and support they still have for each other. I wish there were more eps where I could see their happy ending, they are the ultimate soulmates and the reason I watched this show.

One of my favorite scene this season was Jean blowing up at Lindsay. I laughed so hard.

Finally, that jerk got what he deserved. I also have a boss like him, so at least watching a fictional character go down was satisfying.

When it comes to work aspect, both mentally and physically I related to Helen & Dale a lot, dealing with toxic work environment, struggling with self doubt...

So when Helen reached out for help, the guidance she had during the turmoil was also a learning experience for me too.

I wish there were more eps, I will miss this show.

It's called borderline personality disorder, apparently. And she started doing this, um, breathing, you count breathing. And I went… this dialectical therapy, and I went to study it. I really think it's true.

This office space from The Newsreader has been beloved by so many, and with this in mind, it felt like the most massive honour to be welcomed into it.

.

.

The office in question belonged to our Helen Norville in Season One and Season Two. This strong and tenacious lady made this space her own throughout her time at News At Six. The way it was decorated was pretty yet practical and open planned, just as she is, and is where she pieced together the stories that mattered to her. It’s where she gave advice, sometimes asked for help and forgiveness, and where she found out that there was a possibility to spread her wings and go further places.

With Helen no longer working at News At Six in 1989, this office space has now been handed down to our Rob Rickards; now News At Six’s second biggest star. This is where he now gets to work, and it is his space to stretch out and get comfy in. As I am not rushing ahead in watching Season Three (I’m sticking to the weekly roll out), I am unsure as to what scenes take place here at present, however I am thrilled to share these photos with you that Michelle Lim Davidson and Michael Lucas took of me on my set visit day!

The office is so different to how it was when Helen was here. You can tell that a bloke now works here; it’s far less pretty 😉. There is now a tall shelving unit behind the desk, and the desk itself is a more stock standard type rather than Helen’s L-shaped one. Rob has a computer on his desk, and if you have a peek at the shelves, you can see his silver Logie for his and Noelene’s award winning Seoul Olympics coverage! The bulletin board has now been moved to the side wall, and features a run sheet dated the 26th January 1988. There’s even the autocue script for the Challenger breaking news update poking out from underneath; a detail which made my eyes light up!

The idea for me to hold Rob’s prized cricket ball was Michael and Michelle’s, and in my eyes it makes me look deliciously awkward, just like our Rob! It’s fitting! 😂

Do you like what Rob has done with the space?

And the Logie Award for Best Fanpage in 1989 and 2025 goes to… me! 😉🌟

It’s not just Dale Jennings who got to hold his Logie Award, but also myself and Mum too! I just adore this photo. It was the first photo taken of me in the newsroom, and I was so very excited!

The Logie Award is not the only interesting thing to see in Dale’s office, however. It’s a roomy space which Dale can spread out in, and truly has undergone so much transformation over the three seasons since starting off as Geoff Walters’. Slowly but surely Dale has made it his own, as seen in my season by season screenshots and these unit stills! In such a beautiful mirror to the events of the series, I first approached the door, handbag clutched nervously in hand, and I truly felt like Val Jennings when Helen showed her what used to be Geoff’s office in Season One. I really channelled Val’s nervous excitement in this moment, except now the wall of awards belongs to her son! 😍🌟

Dale’s Logie is cosily tucked away on Dale’s shelves, right by a small collection of his taped stories on VHS. He has constantly done this throughout the series, and as Michael Lucas and I scanned the shelf, we noted that one crucial one was missing; Paul Hogan’s Australian Of The Year speech! Would you believe, we both blurted this out loud simultaneously. It was like we were sharing a brain wave, and it wouldn’t be the first time that day. Turns out our brains work in very similar ways, so it therefore seems fitting we got to spend time together; something that I will treasure forever.

In early plans for the series, the first season was set to be eight episodes long. One of the news stories that sadly had to be cut when the season was cut back to six episodes was that of the Weeping Woman theft from the National Gallery of Victoria. The infamous art heist took place in August 1986, and took Melbourne and the art world by storm! Dale has the front cover of The Sun displaying the story hanging on his wall in the office’s furthest corner from the door, replacing Geoff’s Lindy Chamberlain article. A beautiful nod to a story he and Helen might have covered, and to the episode that never was 📰
