I would have thought the episodes would be recorded closer to the show date for the sake of keeping the news fresh. Sounds interesting, though.

Sounds interesting, the yacht bit could be good provided it's not a pov-arse budget of $500.

I would assume so, but I couldn't say for sure.
The yacht bit didn't actually show the construction, just their attempts to sail it. |

Didn't they only film the Toorak tractor piece recently? I thought the entire season had already been filmed.

Yes, they did. And the clip they showed us in the studio hadn't even been seen by Warren and Steve yet it was so fresh from the editing suite.

It reads well. Hopefully they execute it well though.
And I don't mind Shannon Noll. He is the one and only person that went through Idol that I actually liked once they came out of it. His voice can be annoying though....though not nearly as annoying as Charlie's! Expect Shannon to top the boards... And thanks Stiggie |

Oh bugger I just realised that when this airs next week I will be at Melbourne Town Hall playing guitar at my old high school's speech night. How lame.
