Disaster broadcast as 7 News switches to wrong channel during live show leaving Brisbane viewers confused
Monday night's 7 News Brisbane broadcast, viewers were left scratching their heads when the local bulletin abruptly switched to Sydney's Mark Ferguson and Angela Cox mid-show. The surprise handover occurred around 6.37pm, shortly after an ad break, following a power failure at Seven's Mount Coot-Tha studios in Brisbane. According to TVBlackbox, for several minutes Brisbane viewers found themselves watching the Sydney edition of the news - with the broadcast running all the way through to the final news segment before sport and weather. It wasn't until Sydney's sports presenter Mel McLaughlin popped up onscreen that the unusual crossover was finally acknowledged. 'Welcome back, and welcome to our Brisbane viewers joining us due to a technical issue,' she said, as the segment shifted gears to the sports headlines. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. A Seven spokesperson confirmed the mishap to TV Blackbox, revealing: 'There was a power failure on station and the team worked incredibly hard to get back on air in time for the Sunshine State's critical weather forecast.' Queensland's weather guru Tony Auden eventually returned to screens to deliver the all-important local forecast, before presenters Max Futcher and Katrina Blowers reappeared for the bulletin's wholesome 'Sunny Side' segment. Local sports presenter Steve Titmus was also briefly spotted at the desk during the handover but didn't get a chance to present the final sports stories due to the disruption. Meanwhile, fans trying to catch the full replay on 7plus were met with a surprise of their own - only the first 30 minutes of the Brisbane bulletin were uploaded, with the Sydney takeover absent from the stream. The Sydney edition had yet to appear online as of Tuesday morning. In a lighthearted sign-off, Max Futcher offered a sly nod to the on-air blunder, telling viewers: 'Hope your night is going smoothly.' It follows the news that three senior reporters at Channel Seven have jumped ship to rival Network 10. Seven's award-winning former foreign correspondent Amelia Brace, 7News Sydney reporter Bill Hogan and Spotlight producer-reporter Denham Hitchcock all resigned from the network last week, The Australian 's Media Diary reported. They are reportedly set to join a new investigative show set up by Channel Ten 's news boss Martin White. Brace and Hitchcock exited Seven's studio in Sydney within hours of quitting and are set to start their new jobs at Ten on Monday morning while Hogan will begin with the network in three weeks' time. Ten has reportedly offered Brace a $50,000 increase on the $220,000 a year she had been getting paid. In a message to colleagues on Friday, she said: 'It feels off to not have an official 'last day' to say goodbye, but it's best for me to just fade away for now.' 'Stand up for yourselves, and each other … and think of me every time you have to find a f**king case study.' Meanwhile, Hitchcock departs only three months after having returned to Seven after a couple of years off living on a catamaran with his young family. 'I'm back. It's time to wash some of the salt out - and get back to what I do best,' he said in an Instagram post. 'Back in 2019 the network asked me to start what would eventually become the Spotlight program with one producer and one cameraman - and as the limited shows proved successful - the team quickly grew and it would turn into the network's flagship program. Brace and Hitchcock exited Seven's studio in Sydney within hours of quitting and are set to start their new jobs at Ten on Monday morning while Hogan (pictured) will begin with the network in three weeks time 'I stepped away for a few years to go sailing with the family - and have returned to find a new EP, a new team, new reporters, a fresh energy, an abundance of stories, and some genuine excitement about the year ahead.' He ended the message by asking followers and fans to send 'research ideas'. 'But please - researched ideas - not just wild theories,' he warned, before adding: 'Keep an eye on @7newsspotlight it's going to be quite the year.' Hitchcock's short return to Seven came after he welcomed his second child in December with his wife Mari. He returned to screens in May 2023, in the true crime documentary 'Who Killed Marea?', which examines a 20-year-old cold case. Hitchcock led the Sky News investigation into the mysterious and brutal slaying of Marea Yann who was killed in her home in rural Victoria in 2003. The departures confirm industry whispers that Ten will launch a 'news magazine show' to take on the likes of Nine's 60 Minutes, Seven's Spotlight, and the ABC's Four Corners. The Australian reported last month that a 'crack team' of producers, referred to as the 'investigations unit' was being assembled to helm the new program. It was claimed that Channel Ten reporter Dan Sutton would be the show's executive producer, with potential reporters currently being screen tested. A Network Ten spokesperson confirmed the establishment of the investigation unit to Daily Mail Australia.

Clunky Jack Draper needs Sir Andy Murray's chess-like ingenuity
'The more grand slams I play and the more big matches I play, I'll learn from them and won't make the mistakes that I did today.' So said the British tennis player who had suffered an unexpected loss at a major. Not Jack Draper, as it happens, but his friend and occasional mentor Sir Andy Murray, who made this comment an hour or so after going out of the 2008 Australian Open at the hands of an inspired Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. I mention the quote because Draper's surprise defeat on Monday felt so reminiscent of that period circa 2008-10 when Murray was generally ranked at No 4 in the world – the same position that Draper is likely to be in when the new chart is published on Monday. It was a development phase for Murray, who then played a canny but slightly conservative baseline game based on working his opponents around the court and eliminating his own chances of error. While most observers accepted that Murray trailed behind Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and perhaps Novak Djokovic, he was supposed to beat the likes of Tsonga, Marin Cilic, Fernando Verdasco and Stan Wawrinka, all of whom knocked him out of hard-court majors in this era. The big shift began on New Year's Eve 2010, when Murray announced the appointment of Ivan Lendl as his coach. From that moment, he made a mindset change. He began to bully opponents with his serve and forehand, and eventually opened his grand-slam account in September 2012. Now, I am not suggesting that Draper needs a so-called 'super-coach' like Lendl. He has James Trotman in his corner – not a great player, admittedly, but a wise and cool-headed character who has steered Draper's progress admirably to date. But there are always lessons from the sorts of defeats that Draper suffered on Monday against the instinctive brilliance of Alexander Bublik. And in his case, we are talking about an ability to react more nimbly and speedily to his opponent's pattern of play, rather than showing his bafflement by yelling at his player box as he did here. The only real criticism anyone could have of Draper and his team was that they looked surprisingly unprepared for Bublik's feathered drop shot. It's hardly news that Bublik loves that play. Could Draper have done more to adjust his own position on the court? Could he have tried to gamble earlier in the rallies? During his post-match press conference, he intimated a faint sense of regret. 'Was [Bublik] playing that way because I was allowing him to maybe play that way? I'm not sure.' While Draper is a burlier and more powerful figure than Murray, he is also a more manufactured tennis player. He lacks his predecessor's fluidity and feel, as well as his chess-like ingenuity on the court. Bublik took full advantage of these minor weaknesses with a perfectly honed gameplan which, at times, made Draper look clunky, heavy-footed and predictable. Alexander Bublik with a terrific return to take the second set over Jack Draper 🔥 #RolandGarros — TNT Sports (@tntsports) June 2, 2025 And yet, just like with Murray 15 years ago, Draper is smart and self-aware enough to go away and analyse the footage. He will learn to change up his patterns more quickly when under pressure, and to deal with the mental stress of facing red-lining opponents. Even when faced with such overwhelming quality, Draper still had five chances to break as Bublik served for the match. Unfortunately, he played tight-armed, safety-first points on the first two when one haymaker of a forehand might have turned the match. This is another quality that champions learn: the knack of finding the right shot at the right time. The great ones have an almost supernatural ability to find the lines on the most important points. Will Wimbledon provide another breakthrough? Now Draper moves on to the grass, a surface where he feels much more comfortable – yet still hasn't made much of an impact at Wimbledon to date. Drawn against defending champion Novak Djokovic on his 2021 Centre Court debut, he was eliminated by 19th seed Alex De Minaur a year later before missing 2023 with a torn shoulder tendon. Only last year, when Draper went down in straight sets to compatriot and regular practice partner Cameron Norrie, did he have any reason to be disappointed. This was another match where a tactical adjustment might have helped, because Draper – who again turned in bafflement to his player box – was spraying too many errors and needed to dial back his ambition. You might argue that I am contradicting myself here, by calling Draper too passive against Bublik and too aggressive against Norrie. But then, that is the beauty of tennis: different opponents pose different questions, and the challenge is to adapt on the day. Draper certainly absorbed the lesson of last year's Wimbledon exit. His refusal to give away cheap points over the past year has been an important factor in his rise up the rankings. He will learn from Monday's Bublik masterclass too, and come back stronger.

Robert Irwin shares his number one fear as an Australian working in the USA: 'Terrifying'
Robert Irwin spends a lot of time working in the USA. And the Australian wildlife warrior, whose mum Terri is American, has shared his number one fear as an Aussie in America. The 21-year-old posted to Instagram on Wednesday to explain that he dislikes driving on US roads while stateside. 'Hey America.. why'd you put the steering wheel on the wrong side?' he wrote alongside a photo in which he was sitting in a car while wearing reading glasses. 'And do fake glasses make it look like I know what I'm doing? Driving here is terrifying' he added. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Robert recently set hearts racing earlier this year when he stripped down to his Bonds in a racy underwear campaign that went viral across the country. He has since revealed the unexpected - and overwhelming - side effect of his new status as an Aussie heartthrob. Speaking to Us Weekly ahead of the Steve Irwin Gala in Los Angeles, the conservationist admitted the fallout from the sultry shoot has been a lot to handle. 'I'm in a scary place right now,' he confessed. 'I've been kinda sorta avoiding the direct message section for a little bit.' It comes after the internet went into meltdown over images of Robert posing shirtless in Bonds underwear - flaunting his ripped torso while cuddling up to native animals including a koala and snake. The thirst was real – and so was the flood of cheeky DMs. But Robert insists the shoot was never about vanity, and everything he does comes back to one thing: his passion for conservation. 'I really thought in modelling Bonds underwear or doing Dancing With the Stars, that sort of thing, I could bring in a whole new audience to listen to my conservation message,' he explained. And he's sticking to that plan - just weeks ago, he announced he'd joined the cast of the US version of Dancing With The Stars, once again showing off his buff bod while cradling a snake for the promo. 'That's how I feel comfortable. That's who I am,' he said. 'It's all about this mission and I've got a real sense of purpose and passion. I got to achieve that.' 'I definitely feel like I'm really lucky that now I've got a whole new audience that I can reach and hopefully just put out a bit of positivity and hopefully say, 'Life's for living at 100.'' It comes after Robert denied the photos from the Bonds campaign have been digitally altered. Robert quickly put paid to the suggestion of digital chicanery, revealing that everything that appeared in the images was 100 per cent real. 'Mate, everything is 100 per cent real,' Robert confirmed during an interview with Karl Stefanovic on Today. 'Everything you see was all there. The spider - that was right there, the beautiful big black headed python that was all there.' Robert continued: 'My abs - none of that was airbrushed. That was a lot of work - a lot of work and very little carbohydrates.' Karl then asked Robert to clarify claims, published by New idea, that mum Terri had a problem with the Bonds shoot as it did not align with the Irwin family-friendly brand. 'Mum was fully on board,' Robert revealed. '[She] used to do bodybuilding so she was actually giving me tips. 'Bindi took a bit of convincing. It was a bit uncomfortable. 'I'm still not 100 per cent comfortable with some of it anyway, but you know what? We did it and you just got to own it and give it your all,' he said. With Robert's steamy shoot setting hearts aflutter across the globe, Karl asked the I'm A Celebrity host how he is dealing with all the attention.
