Producers address Bondi Rescue cancellation rumours - after domestic violence arrest of lifeguard Andrew 'Reidy' Reid
The producers of Bondi Rescue have rubbished claims that the series has been cancelled. The Channel 10 reality series has been on hiatus for 2025, but will be around for 'many years to come', producers insisted on Wednesday. Michael Cordell, creative director and co-founder of production company CJZ, told the Daily Telegraph in a statement: 'Season 18 was widely regarded as the best we've ever made and there's still plenty of important stories to tell about Bondi's professional lifeguards and the extraordinary work they do.' Cordell also responded to comments made by lifeguard Andrew 'Reidy' Reid that seemed to imply that the series may be facing the axe. 'Reidy has been off-duty for some time and isn't privy to the show's financing. We love Reidy, but he isn't best placed to be making announcements about Bondi Rescue's future,' Cordell said.

Bondi Rescue has aired on Channel Ten since 2006, clocking in an impressive 18 seasons. It follows the daily lives and death-defying adventures of lifeguards tasked with protecting Bondi Beach's swimmers and surfers. Whispers of a cancellation come after Andrew 'Reidy' Reid faced domestic violence charges late last year. In December, the star avoided a conviction for putting his hand on a woman's neck 'in a fit of alcoholic rage'. The lifeguard faced Hornsby Local Court after pleading not guilty to two counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm and one count of common assault. According to the NCA Newswire, Magistrate Daniel Reiss dismissed both counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm. However, he was found guilty of pushing a woman's neck for up to five seconds in 'an aggressive act that amounted to common assault' without proceeding to a conviction. One assault charge related to an alleged incident in November 2022, while the other allegedly took place in January 2024, over a 15-minute period. A visibly upset Reid was said to have told the court 'that's not the kind of man I am' as he addressed the allegation. Both counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm were dismissed, though Reid was found to have made a 'fairly clear admission of assault' to his counsellor. Reid was handed a 12-month good behaviour bond after being found guilty of pushing the woman's neck for up to five seconds. He will also remain subject to a two-year apprehended violence order taken out in the woman's name. Reid is best known for having been a star on Bondi Rescue since the popular series first aired in 2006. He's patrolled the iconic beach for more than two decades. Last year, Reid made headlines when he rushed to the aid of injured victims stabbed by Joel Cauchi in the Westfield Bondi Junction rampage that claimed six lives. While Reid is no stranger to life and death situations, he admitted he had never before experienced anything so traumatic. 'I have seen some pretty gnarly stuff after working for 20 years on the beach, but nothing like this,' he said.

Brazilian Critical Minerals takes key Ema REE step with BFS lead appointed
Don't miss out on the headlines from Stockhead. Followed categories will be added to My News. Special Report : Brazilian Critical Minerals has selected newly formed Altris Engineering as lead engineer for the Ema project bankable feasibility study, which is anticipated to take about six to nine months to complete. BCM appoints Altris Engineering as lead engineer for Ema BFS Altris will deliver the process plant and non-process infrastructure components The BFS will take 6-9 months to complete The Altris team – formerly of Primero Group - comprises highly qualified study and project managers, engineers and designers across key disciplines such as process, mechanical, piping, civil/structural and instrumentation. Brazilian Critical Minerals (ASX:BCM) is confident that the lead consultant appointment, alongside ANSTO and WSP, brings together a highly experienced group of specialists ready to advance the Ema project in Brazil through detailed feasibility studies ahead of project financing discussions. Altris will deliver the process plant and non-process infrastructure components of the BFS as well as coordinate the overall compilation and delivery of the final DFS report. The bankable study doesn't usually differ in project parameters from the DFS and both include a stack of detail on what terms financiers should provide to make the project sing. Altris has delivered multiple scoping, prefeasibility and feasibility studies, and has led EPC and EPCM project execution for battery and critical minerals projects across multiple global jurisdictions. With strong experience in project delivery, it is recognised for producing fit-for-purpose designs that minimise capital expenditure while maintaining high standards of operability and safety. ANSTO has globally recognised expertise in the processing of critical and strategic metals including rare earths and was instrumental in the delivery of the metallurgical assessment during the Ema scoping study phase. WSP brings in-house expertise in the design, implementation and optimisation of in-situ recovery (ISR) mining projects across a range of commodities and global jurisdictions. Building momentum BCM managing director Andrew Reid said the company was extremely pleased to be partnering with Altris as its lead engineer. 'The Ema Project is the only rare earths in-situ recovery (ISR) development of its kind in the Western world, with a capital cost of just US$55 million – positioning it as potentially the lowest-cost, near-term source of rare earth feedstock under current market conditions,' he said. 'We look forward to building on the momentum of the past 12 months and continuing to add value through practical, fit-for-purpose engineering that is grounded in sound commercial logic.' What else is happening? BCM has multiple activities planned on the ground over the course of the next few months including geotechnical investigations, Lidar survey capture for accurate field designs, infrastructure powerline study design and road access assessment of upgrades to improve wet season access.
