Sunday Night

Poison in Paradise Thought you were playing it safe by sticking to imported bottled alcohol in Bali? Think again. 19-year-old Australian tourist Liam Davies took every precaution against the island’s dangers, but within days of drinking a vodka soda, his parents were forced to make the agonising decision to turn off his life support. Sadly, Liam’s tragic death is by no means unique. Cheap homemade alcohol laced with the deadly substance methanol is added to mixed drinks in bars across Bali to cut costs. Sunday Night’s Ross Coulthart joins Liam’s distraught parents, Tim and Lhani, on an emotional journey back to Bali to find the truth about what happened to their boy, and to make sure those who killed him are brought to justice. And when Coulthart traces the knock-off alcohol back to its source, a filthy distillery shed in a Balinese village, you’ll reconsider your next drink in Bali. The Bucket List Meet four ordinary Aussie blokes who were brought together by tragedy but united in triumph. Each suffered their own devastating road accident, and each was left without the use of his legs. Now, they’re setting off on a ‘bucket list’ road trip to revisit the crash sites that changed their lives forever. During this incredible journey, each of these four friends makes an emotional pilgrimage to their own dark place. Throw in a wedding, an epic race against time and a heart-warming finish and you’ve got all the ingredients for a story that will leave you appreciating life. Capricorn Rising Last weekend in North Queensland, a little yellow helicopter and its courageous crew pulled off one of the most remarkable rescue missions ever attempted. In appalling weather, with flood water rising rapidly, four cars became stranded in the raging torrent. Eight terrified people clung to the roof of their vehicles – their only hope of survival lay in being plucked from above by a rescue chopper. The only way it could happen was if the Capricorn chopp

The James Packer Interview It’s James Packer as you’ve never seen him before. In this revealing interview with Sunday Night’s Mike Willesee, nothing is off limits. Packer opens up about his fortune, his father and even his famous friend, Tom Cruise. Willesee goes on the road with Australia’s six billion dollar man – a whistle-stop tour of Packer’s booming business empire – from Melbourne to Macau, Singapore to Perth, and back to Sydney. Witness the limousines, the private jets and the most luxurious hotel suites in the world. Along the way the two men form a bond that produces the most intimate, raw and emotional interview ever done with a member of the Packer dynasty. Willesee had interviewed James’ father Kerry in the past, and knew the late billionaire well. Willesee’s connection with his father clearly means a lot to James Packer as he opens up about the highs and lows of his remarkable life – his childhood, the break-up of his first marriage, the collapse of One. Tel, his fight with depression and the last conversation he had with his father. Now a father of three himself, James Packer is back with a vengeance and reveals his grand vision – not just for his business but for Australia. An interview not to be missed. Arak Attack Last week Sunday Night told the heart-wrenching story of Liam Davies, who died from methanol poisoning while on holiday in Indonesia – despite knowing the dangers, and taking all the right precautions. The response from viewers was overwhelming. This week, Ross Coulthart’s investigation continues with a 25-year-old nurse and her mum telling their frightening story after she was poisoned in Bali with methanol added to their fruit juice ‘cocktail.’ After collapsing in a coma, Jamie’s mum was forced to withdraw money from a cash machine before hospital staff would treat her daughter. Now the young woman has been left with permanent brain injuries from the incident. Another chilling story from one of A

Shipbreaking It’s been described as hell on earth. It’s a jaw-dropping sight – as far as the eye can see along a stretch of coastline in Bangladesh, hundreds of mammoth supertankers lie beached on the sand. This is the place where the world’s ships come to die. The view from the air is breathtaking; down on the ground it is just as staggering. Sunday Night reporter Tim Noonan joins some of the thousands workers who are paid a mere 47 cents a day to break up these rusting giants with their bare hands – 12 hours a day, seven days a week. It could be the most dangerous job in the world. Yet amongst the wreckages he finds children, risking their lives doing back breaking and dangerous work. The death and injury record in the shipbreaking yards is horrendous. They do it with little or no safety gear, despite the ships being riddled with asbestos and toxic substances. It’s a sight that needs to be seen to be believed. Dame Julie Andrews Don’t let her impeccable manners and perfect pronunciation fool you – Dame Julie Andrews is far from the wholesome Maria Von Trapp character etched into our childhood memories. In this very candid interview, Dame Julie opens up to Sunday Night’s Alex Cullen about her alcoholic parents, why putting a lock on her bedroom door when she was a little girl saved her life, how she nearly didn’t take the role that won her an Academy Award, and the rawness she still feels over the death of her husband, Blake Edwards. Now a grandmother and children’s author, Dame Julie will soon be coming to Australia for the very first time. A wonderful celebration story about one of Hollywood’s all-time greats. The Power of Love As we celebrate Valentine’s Day, witness a truly inspiring love story that will leave you proud to be Australian. It begins with a tragedy when Gary is badly injured in an event that clams the lives of his mates. At first he wasn’t expected to survive, then he wasn’t expected to recover much of

The Unseen Scars One is a legend of the AFL, one of the hardest, most skilful and most decorated men ever to play the game. The other was a tough man too, copping and handing out countless beatings in his rugby league career. Both are married, both have children – and both are facing the biggest challenge of their lives. In this exclusive story former Wallaby Peter Fitzsimons meets two footy warriors – AFL champion and dual Brownlow medallist Greg Williams and the NRL’s Shaun Vallentine – as they discover the price they’ve paid for playing the game they love. In a world first medical study here in Australia, the results of tests on retired professional players will send shockwaves through all the codes. Sunday Night is with both men when they undergo testing and receive their results, as well as witnessing their everyday struggles and fears for the future. With ramifications for every single player in elite contact sport, this is a story that eclipses the current drugs scandal. Derryn and Jacki On Monday Jacki Weaver could receive an Oscar. It’s her second nomination in just three years – and after 50 years in show business she is now the hottest property in Hollywood. She hasn’t given an interview to Australian media in over two years, and it has taken something very special to get this exclusive with her. Sunday Night has got extraordinary access to Jacki in pre-Oscars week because the man firing the questions is Derryn Hinch – the man she married not once, but twice. This is a celebrity interview like no other. Jacki opens up to Derryn – who she describes as just one of nine ‘husbands’ in her love life – about her career, the sex abuse secret she hid from everyone, and how she delivered her own granddaughter. It’s funny, feisty and must-watch TV. Maritime Miracle This is the incredible inside story of the lifesaving mission to rescue French sailor Alain Delord. It has been described as the greatest maritime rescue in Aus

Steve Waugh This is the dramatic and never before told story of one of our greatest sportsmen. Steve Waugh won everything in the game, but it’s what he has done with his life post cricket that is so heart-warming and inspiring. Through his own foundation, Steve helps kids battling some of the world’s rarest diseases. People like 20-year-old Renee, who stopped growing at the age of two and who now weighs just 12 kilograms. Renee requires oxygen every minute of the day, which her single mum simply can’t afford. Steve and his wife Lynette, married for 30 years, pay for mobile oxygen tanks so Renee can live as close to a normal life as possible. Then there is 9-year-old Liam who’s life the couple transformed with the gift of a $36,000 wheelchair. But in this special story with guest reporter, Sunrise’s Mel Doyle, Steve and Lynette reveal exclusively for the first time their darkest moment – when Lynette collapsed with a bleed on the brain. Together with neurosurgeon Charlie Teo, they tell of her miraculous survival. Sky High High above the desert sands of Dubai, Australia’s adrenalin junkies are putting their lives on the line. These world parachute championships are like nothing you’ve ever seen – it’s much more than skydiving, it’s aerial ballet. But the consequences can be deadly. When Laurence took to the skies, she’d already jumped hundreds of times. She never imagined this one would be any different. But when she pulled the chord she knew she was in big trouble. Watch the story unravel in front of your eyes. Steve Carell It’s the funniest TV interview of the year. From the second he walks into the room Steve Carell takes over the interview and anything and everything goes. This Sunday Night experience the star of The 40 Year Old Virgin go head to head with Rahni Sadler. Famous for his portrayal of awkward and dim-witted characters you’ll find out why Carell is proud to still cha cha like a sissy girl, and learn the truth

Chute to Kill They were quite simply the perfect glamour couple. She was a young and beautiful Melbourne model, close friends with international supermodel Jess Hart. He was her handsome older boyfriend who did business with Kylie Minogue and Paris Hilton. The couple had plans to travel to Paris for Christmas – so just how did Phoebe Handsjuk come to die after plunging 12 storeys down the garbage chute of his luxury apartment building? Experts say she could not possibly have climbed in herself. So was she thrown down to her death? The first police report claimed Phoebe had taken her own life, but it didn’t add up. Now her family want answers, but her boyfriend doesn’t want an inquest. The mystery of Phoebe’s final hours revealed by PJ Madam on Sunday Night. Operation Miracle Rescue This is the incredible never before told inside story of the lifesaving mission to rescue Frenchman Alain DeLorde from the raging Southern ocean. The solo sailor had capsized 5 times – he was one wave away from death. Just how rescuers pulled off the impossible and plucked him to safety after a nail-biting 52 hour mission is nothing short of a miracle. The week on Sunday Night, the full story is told by the very men and women who made it all happen. From a very grateful Alain to the Hercules pilot and skipper of the cruise ship that turned round and was guided to the tiny bobbing raft in the middle of a giant ocean during a terrifying storm. This is a story to make you proud. Jesus Christ Superstar He’s Australia’s most successful comedian – hitting the big time overseas. Tim Minchin is edgy, whacky, very controversial and now a superstar in London. The private school boy from Perth opens up in this exclusive interview with Ross Coulthart about how he felt when Australia turned its back on him. Now he’s wowing audiences around the world with his controversial stance on religion. A staunch atheist who says ‘religion is bollocks’ is now the surprise lead

James Bulger It is a haunting image frozen in time that shocked the world over. A snapshot from a CCTV camera showing a toddler in a busy shopping centre hand in hand with one of his killers – who was just 10 years old. It’s now 20 years since two-year-old James Bulger was murdered by the two schoolboys who lured him away from his mother, but the case is still making headlines. In this major Sunday Night investigation we reveal secret tapes that were not played at the trial, that were hidden from the watching world. The voices of the Year 5 schoolboys who brutally murdered James are spine chilling as they confess to what they did. Now both 30 years of age, their identities have been hidden and protected for life by the British government. One of them, named Jon Venables at the time of the crime, is now applying for parole after being convicted of pornography offences after he was released. James’ mother Denise tells Sunday Night why he is pure evil, and why she’s determined to face him at his parole hearing. Derryn Hinch also speaks candidly with the detective who arrested and interviewed the killers, and why he doesn’t believe the punishment fit the crime. The Face Doctor He’s the human smash repairer who every ‘Bloody Monday’ rebuilds faces after the carnage of the weekend. On Sunday Night, meet the remarkable man they call the Face Doctor. Anthony Lynham, a jaw and face reconstructive surgeon, is faced with a waiting room of broken faces every week. Innocent victims of the drunken violence police struggle to contain in towns and cities across the country. Dr Lynham is now going public, fronting a campaign to make politicians toughen up and back his answer for ending the violence. He’s simply had enough and he won’t go away until they listen. Meet one of his patients, Annette. A young Brisbane mum, she was bashed with a steel pole in a random attack in the middle of the city. She returns to the scene where it happened and delivers an e

Dishonourables and Dangerous Top of Their Game Seals v Sharks Dishonourables and Dangerous This is the shocking story of the dishonorable soldier preying on women. Now with four convictions for bashing four different victims, Darran Porch is big and violent – a former paratrooper who served in the Australian and British armies. On dating websites he calls himself “Mr Melbourne” and presents himself as handsome, caring and sensitive. But in reality Porch is a dangerous man, who time and time again has been jailed for assaulting his victims. Right now, Porch is on bail despite being sentenced to 40 months jail for two dozen offences stemming from a savage and brutal attack on his latest victim. In this major international Sunday Night investigation reporter Derryn Hinch meets many of Porch’s unfortunate victims from Scotland, Wales, Canada and Australia. After three years following this shocking abuse of justice, watch as Derryn comes face to face with the serial thug, with an explosive outcome. Top of Their Game On Sunday Night meet two Australian men from different worlds. One can bench press a whopping 270kgs. He’s 193 cm tall and weighs 145kg. The other is a father of two, passionate and wildly over the top – revolutionising his sport. Both have one thing in common – they’ve hit the big time overseas. Meet Jessie Williams, known as “Tha Monstar”. At 22, the boy from Brisbane is dominating American college football and is about to become one of Australia’s highest paid exports, inking his first contract worth millions of dollars. On the field this 22-year-old is fast and agile, off the field he’s humble, smart and very savvy. Meanwhile Jason Belmonte is a bowling phenomenon, a world champion. But his very unorthodox two handed bowling style is leaving his American opponents scratching their heads. Seals v Sharks It is one of nature’s most ferocious and normally unseen contests. The battle under the sea is dangerous and

ABBA Mrs Brown's Boys Queen of Aussie Rock ABBA Thirty years ago one of the world’s biggest sex symbols and music superstars vanished almost overnight. Agnetha Faltskog was the beautiful blonde in ABBA, the Swedish super group who split suddenly after 10 years of worldwide success. For the past three decades little has been heard or seen of the mysterious pop queen, who was married to fellow ABBA band member Bjorn Ulvaeus. Life was different in 1977 when the band toured Australia and ABBA-mania was born. More than 160,000 people watched the 11 concerts and for Agnetha the pressure of fame was starting to show. Apart from giving a handful of newspaper interviews decades ago, Agnetha, now a 62-year-old grandmother, withdrew from the world and raised her children on a remote island. Now she is back in the limelight, with her first original solo album in more than two decades, A, to be released on May 10. In this world exclusive and Sunday Night special, reporter Rahni Sadler travels to the island to spend time getting to know Agnetha, and nothing is off limits. A never-to-be-forgotten interview, the notoriously private star opens up about her life, her reclusiveness, her failed marriage, her love of Australia and her life today. She even sings ABBA’s music again for the first time since the early 80s. Mrs Brown's Boys Brendan O’Carroll is the creator and artistic genius behind the hit TV series and stage show Mrs Brown’s Boys, in which he plays foul-mouthed Irish matriarch Agnes Brown. His amazing life journey so far is a rags to riches to rags and back to riches rollercoaster. In this exclusive profile, Brendan takes reporter Ross Coulthart back to where it all began in Dublin’s tough working class suburbs. At nine years old, Brendan’s father died from asbestosis and not long after he was diagnosed dyslexic. By 12, he’d left school to work as a milkman’s assistant. Brendan married at 19 and six years later thought he’d made it when he b

Abandoned Miracle Survivors ABBA By Demand Abandoned Five hundred flights a month will deliver over one million Australians to the United Arab Emirates in the next year after Qantas changed airline partners and long haul routes. One of the most popular tourist spots, Dubai, is being promoted as a luxury high class paradise in the desert – but the reality is brutally different. Aussie Alicia Gali knows. The 31-year-old’s life was changed forever when she took a job in the UAE with one of the world’s biggest hotel chains. She was using her laptop in the staff bar one night when her drink was spiked. She passed out, and woke to a nightmare beyond belief. She had been savagely raped by three of her colleagues. Injured, scared and alone in a foreign country, she took herself to hospital. What Alicia didn’t know is that under strict Islamic law being raped in the UAE is a crime. She was charged with having illicit sexual intercourse outside of marriage, and thrown in jail for eight months. Australian diplomats could have saved Alicia, but did nothing. Back in Australia, more government bureaucrats pressured Alicia’s mother and family to stay quiet and not make a “fuss”. The UAE is one of Australia’s biggest trade partners in the region. Now, finally home and struggling to move on with her life, Alicia speaks out for the first time. Reporter Ross Coulthart also speaks to the English girl jailed for kissing a male friend on the cheek in a UAE restaurant. The exclusive shocking story every Australian traveller must watch. Miracle Survivors The secrets behind history’s greatest survival story revealed for the first time. When their plane crashed high in the Andes in deep snow, it’s a miracle that anyone lived through it. Forty footy mates, their friends and family, and five crew, lost in the wilderness when the plane came down. Seventy two days later, only 16 would be left. In freezing conditions of minus 30 degrees, surrounded by a blanket o

Full Throttle Carnage George Costanza (AKA Jason Alexander) No Way, Baby Full Throttle Carnage Robbie Maddison has become very wealthy laying his life on the line and defying gravity in the saddle of a motorbike. The Crusty Demons Australian daredevil has back flipped mid-air across London’s Tower Bridge, soared above the replica Arc de Triomphe at Paris Las Vegas and out-jumped Evel Knieval’s record. But Robbie is consumed with guilt, that the death-defying stunts he began are now somehow responsible for deaths of young riders, pushing the limits in a bid to emulate their idol. The latest tragedy happened just a few weeks ago when 19-year-old Tyrone Gilks died attempting a practice jump for a new dangerous stunt. Robbie Maddison isn’t just upset, he’s angry. Robbie’s seen six mates die in the sport in the past three years – three of them this year alone – all attempting stunts he believes were beyond them, and even beyond him. Sunday Night’s Alex Cullen hears from Robbie about what must be done to stop any more tragedies, and meets new kid on the block Jackson Strong, who is planning the most dangerous stunts yet. Tyrone’s mum tells us why she couldn’t stop her son from attempting the impossible. George Costanza (AKA Jason Alexander) Seinfeld was a show famous for being about nothing, but strap in for a story that has everything. Jason Alexander had the world in stitches as the very popular (and very neurotic) George Castanza. On Sunday Night, hear all the secrets behind Seinfeld, including what really happened to the famous Soup Nazi. One of the most successful sitcoms ever, Seinfeld gave us phrases like “double dipping” and “shrinkage”, but what happens when reporter PJ Madam asks about being the “master of your domain”. In this in-depth interview, the Seinfeld star reveals the childhood heart ache that led him to obesity, and has a message for the bullies who tormented him in the school yard. High on a hill in Los An

Serial Killers Breast Cancer The Helicopter Hero King Kong Serial Killers Imagine waking up one day and discovering the man you married, the father of your children, was not a doting dad but a brutal serial killer. The Iceman was a hit man for hire who murdered so many he can’t even remember the total, but thinks it was around 100. The ‘Happy Face’ killer admits to eight victims but may have strangled over 100 more. A spine-chilling Sunday Night investigation, Mike Willesee meets the wives of both serial killers. They knew their husbands better than anyone, but had no idea about their secret double lives. Getting inside the mind of these cold-hearted killers, we also meet the daughter who feared she’d inherited her fathers ‘killer gene’, and the pregnant victim who was the only one to escape. Finally there is a jaw-dropping jail interview with the ‘Happy Face’ serial killer – and the revelation of what he’s doing now will leave you speechless. Breast Cancer Angelina Jolie has sparked a rush to remove by women threatened by the spectre of breast cancer. In this special Sunday Night report, Rahni Sadler catches up with the mum whose daughters all carry the BRCA gene and believes the Hollywood star is an angel for raising awareness. Then the bombshell – we meet the Aussie mum who had her breasts removed just like Angelina, yet still developed the disease. With women dashing to get tested, doctors are warning instant removal is not always the best option. A story every women confused by the latest news needs to see. The Helicopter Hero This is the untold story of one man who saved the lives of thousands during the devastating super-tornado that hit Oklahoma City. Sunday Night’s Ross Coulthart is on the ground as the rescue and clean up unfolds. He meets the hero who very nearly did not survive to tell his story. In a helicopter – hovering above and being sucked towards the biggest twister he’d ever seen – he had the onl

Bite Club It’s a very exclusive club that no-one wants to join. The members call it the Bite Club, and the first rule of the Bite Club…is to always talk about the Bite Club. They’ve all been munched and mauled by sharks and lived to tell their remarkable stories. It began with one man, who couldn’t find an expert to truly understand his fear, so made it his mission to contact and be-friend every shark victim after him. This weekend on Sunday Night, the Bite Club meets face to face for the very first time – seven members come together for an amazing weekend of courage and bonding. They come from all over Australia to face their demons and encourage one another to re-enter the water, and then, in must watch TV, actually swim with sharks. They’ve suffered over 1,000 stitches between them. One member had two kilos of flesh removed by a shark, another lost 40 per cent of his blood, and then there is the young woman who owes her life to the brave tourist who wrestled with the shark that had her in its grip. We return to the scene of one attack with the victim and are almost run out of the town with no pity. Tourism props up the local economy and locals are not happy that we are there. Serial Killers Last weekend more than two million Australians watched Mike Willesee’s gripping story on the women who marry serial killers, the children who fear they may inherit their father’s murderous DNA, and the victim who escaped. This Sunday, in the explosive second installment, we meet The Iceman – perhaps America’s most cold-blooded contract killer. He murdered innocent victims simply to hone his skills for killing. In suburbia he was a doting dad, a favourite with the neighbours, but then he’d catch the train into New York and murder to order. The Iceman’s wife gives an extraordinary account of her life with the serial killer, and how she never knew of his “other job”. Vince and Owen They are two of Hollywood’s funniest stars. Put them t

Preaching Hate One Moment of Madness Dan Brown Preaching Hate In the wake of the brutal killing of a British soldier on the streets of London, Sunday Night comes face to face with the Muslim hate preacher with direct links to the two radical terrorists shot by police. What Anjem Choudary has to say about the rise of Islam in Australia and the western world will come as a wake-up call for many. Sharia law is coming to Australia says Choudary who believes he and his followers are in a war that will not be over until the Islamic flag is flying over Parliament House in Canberra. He is combative, argumentative, chilling and very sure of the path Australia will take. Islamic vigilantes currently patrol London streets imposing a no alcohol ban and ordering women to cover-up, and Choudray wants the same here. Reporter PJ Madam also meets the courageous “angel” who stood up to the terrorists and bravely fought to save the life of dying soldier Lee Rigby, and the English Defence League leader ready and willing to fight the rise of Islam. One Moment of Madness When the law comes up short, the only thing left is revenge. This is a remarkable story of how one moment of madness, one simple wrong choice, affects the lives of so many people. More than a message about drink driving, this story could also be the catalyst for a law change to protect all of us from a loophole that keeps killers behind the wheel of a lethal weapon. Melissa was a fun loving mum of five who decided to drive home from drinks at the pub with her girlfriends. She was so drunk – four times over the limit at the time – she ploughed head first into a car being driven by another mum who died at the scene. In this highly emotional story, Sunday Night speaks to the family of both women, including both sets of children. It’s heartbreaking and confronting. We also meet the police officers and fire fighters who were first on the scene that night, and when you hear what they have to say, it will

World exclusive: Taken Full of Life Dan Brown World exclusive: Taken A beautiful Australian tourist is kidnapped, raped and marched through the South American jungle at gunpoint by right wing terrorists. This isn’t a Hollywood movie script but the incredible true story of survival and courage by a remarkable woman who took on her captors and won. When the heavily armed drug smugglers ambushed Fiona’s tourist group as they canoed up the Amazon in Ecuador it was the beginning of 36 hours of terror for the young forensic scientist on her dream holiday. What Fiona endured in the jungle that night is despicable, but how this heroine came through the ordeal and saved the life of her fellow captive, a young British girl, is the stuff of legend. Eight months after their dramatic escape, Sunday Night returns with Fiona to Ecuador and the story takes an astonishing twist when she agrees to risk her life again to testify against one of her kidnappers. Rahni Sadler is with her every step of the way to bring us one of the most frightening but inspirational stories of the year. Full of Life On the outskirts of Amsterdam, a breakthrough treatment for dementia is producing remarkable results that will benefit all of us in the years ahead. At first glance, it seems like any other high-end retirement complex – the residents are served meals, listen to live music and even do their shopping at a small supermarket. But this nursing home is actually an illusion: all the staff in the ‘village’ – the servants, the publican, the music teacher, the shopkeeper, the hairdresser – are actually trained nurses and carers. This somewhat artificial existence serves a very real purpose: to lessen the distressing effects of dementia. What they are doing in Amsterdam will make you question everything you thought you knew about growing old. In this eye-opening investigation, Alex Cullen also meets the British scientist on the cusp of a cure for a condition that will soon aff

Locked and Loaded Autism Conquered Croc Man Locked and Loaded Mike Willesee’s eye-popping investigation into gun crime in America and the community project handing out free shotguns to single mums to protect themselves from armed intruders. Every single day 80 Americans are shot dead, eight of those are children. And in the most powerful country on earth with 310 million weapons already in circulation, Mike meets the pin up boy of the pro-gun lobby – trigger-happy Australian former television star Vadim Dale, who stole the hearts of millions of women a decade ago in the reality show Outback Jack. Today, the father-of-three and elite police officer maintains a small arsenal of weapons in his family’s Kentucky home. He even carries a handgun under his tracksuit for outings to the local park, and in May last year was the hero cop who fired and disarmed a woman who was shooting at a crowd. Sunday Night also sits down with Jon Bon Jovi, who speaks passionately about the laws of a country he loves so much, and the dangers he faces now that he is labelled ‘an enemy of the NRA’. Then there’s the heartbreaking interview with the mother of six-year-old Dylan Hockley, who was shot dead along with 19 of his fellow students in the horrific Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre on December 14 last year. Dylan was a smiling, happy boy who loved chocolate and tickles from his mum. He was learning to read and write and tie his shoe laces. Dylan’s devastated mother Nicole has vowed to fight for stronger gun controls on behalf of her son. It’s an emotional message she’s already taken all the way to Barack Obama. Autism Conquered A school on the outskirts of Brisbane is making enormous steps forward in the treatment of autism – transforming many lives in the process. Kids like Max, the son of former footy legend Matt Rogers and his ex-model wife Chloe. Rogers was fearless on the footy field, but in this interview with Sunday Night he can’t hold ba

Kung Fu Pandas Mum's the Word Pink Kung Fu Pandas The Giant Panda draws huge crowds to zoos across the world – but the fact is the panda is on the brink of total extinction. Only 1506 remain on the planet and the message to mankind is clear: if we can’t protect the Giant Panda, no animal is safe from oblivion. Reporter Alex Cullen interviews Hollywood legend Jackie Chan about the last ditch battle to save these magnificent creatures, and Sunday Night is given unprecedented access to the isolated sanctuary where scientists are going to extraordinary lengths to breed perhaps the world’s most popular animal. It’s a very difficult challenge – the female panda is only in the mood around one night of the year. Despite the concrete and bitumen encroaching further and further into the panda’s natural habitat, these scientists are attempting to reintroduce captive bred pandas back to the wild. To give the project the best possible chance of success, and not contaminate pandas with human contact, they must dress in panda suits each day. Jackie Chan tells Sunday Night why saving the Giant Panda is so important, and why he’s already given $1 million and adopted two pandas. In 2009 Australia Adelaide Zoo became home to Wang Wang and Funi. So far they haven’t been able to breed, but they are about to undergo a radical IVF program – the final hope for saving the world’s last Giant Panda’s. Mum’s The Word They captivated the nation in My Kitchen Rules and took out first prize. Now winning couple Dan and Steph reveal their heartbreak at failing to start a family. In this Sunday Night IVF special report, the couple reveals more details about their desire to be parents: how their first IVF attempt ended in devastating disappointment. Reporter Rahni Sadler reveals their new plans – and its happy news the couple can’t wait to share with Australia. While a new technique developed in Melbourne now offers childless couple’s like Dan and Steph a b

The Family Court Murders Thirty-three years ago, Trudi Warwick was a little girl at the centre of a bitter custody dispute. Her mother Andrea battled for years, but her father Len defied multiple court orders in an attempt to keep his daughter. At the same time, with shootings and multiple bombings carried out across Sydney over five terrifying years, the so-called ‘Family Court murders’ became among the most serious unsolved crimes in Australian criminal history. The only common link in each of these seven dreadful acts of terror? Len Warwick. Reporter: Ross Coulthart Producer: Mick O’Donnell Associate Producer: Debi Marshall

In this major Sunday Night report, PJ Madam meets a number of mothers whose choices resulted in tragedy, and the notorious midwife who has been present at five homebirths that have ended in death. The controversy over homebirths has made headlines around the world, but only now will you see inside the distraught Australian homes, and hear the heartbreaking triple-0 calls. Find out why, despite the dangers and coronial inquiries, so many passionate Australian women still believe it’s their right to have a homebirth over a hospital delivery. It’s a story that will divide the country – does the right of the mother to choose come before the right of the baby to enter the world in a hospital where they have the best chance of survival? Crazy Bike Race Once a year, Chilean port city Valparaiso hosts the world’s most dangerous, exciting and mind-blowing bike race – a bone-rattling 2km downhill ride from the hilltop to the sea.

Death Row Confessions Sleepless Nights Jackson: Look At Him Now Death Row Confessions Every evening they lay on their beds unable to sleep – wondering if this will be the night they hear the footsteps coming towards their cell. Australians Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran are on death row, their executions coming anytime now. They are the convicted ringleaders of the Bali Nine heroin smuggling gang, and they’ve been sentenced to death by firing squad. In accordance with Indonesian law, they won’t be given any warning when their time is up. They will simply be taken to an isolated location, a target placed over their hearts, and ten soldiers will form the firing squad. Only one live bullet will be used. Reporter: Mike Willesee Producer: Alex Garipoli Sleepless Nights If your child snores, no matter how quietly, you may have a big problem on your hands. What most parents don't know is that while they are sleeping, their snoring children could be suffering long-term damage. More than half of Australian children suffer from a sleeping disorder, and the effects can last a lifetime. Experts know that a lack of sleep leads to reduced IQ, developmental issues and can even stunt a child's growth. Reporter: Kerri-Anne Kennerley Producer: Lisa Ryan Jackson: Look At Him Now When little Jackson Keleher was born, his brain was starved of oxygen. Doctors said he’d never walk and he’d never talk, but his father David never gave up. When we first introduced you to this brave little boy late last year, he was undergoing treatment after treatment, pushing himself harder and harder. It was a story about a father’s love and a fighting Australian spirit. Reporter: Chris Bath Producer: Sandra Di Girolamo

Charlie’s Angels Deadly Obsession Alex Perry Charlie’s Angels Leading neurosurgeon Dr Charlie Teo is undertaking a different kind of lifesaving mission in the jungles of Borneo. A chance encounter with a Zen-like orang-utan on a family holiday sparked his passion for saving these peaceful creatures from the brink of extinction. Greed is driving a terrible environmental disaster, as the orang-utans’ habitat is destroyed to make way for palm oil plantations. Now, Teo returns to Borneo to visit with Birute Galdikas, a conservationist who has been living side by side with orang-utans in the jungle for over 40 years. Her sanctuary is a paradise for the animals, as Teo discovers when he pushes a wheelbarrow full of adorable baby orang-utan babies to their play date at the sanctuary’s jungle gym. Amidst the incredible encounters, we find fresh hope for these animals – Sunday Night’s cameras are there as for the big moment. See what happens when the cuddly creatures are released back into the wild. Deadly Obsession Inside this secret cult-like religion, in bizarre renegade churches, worshippers believe in a super power. They are convinced the Bible has commanded them to hold deadly snakes. Every sermon could very quickly become their last. If bitten by the poisonous creature, they refuse hospital treatment, believing God will decide their fate. It’s an ancient Pentecostal tradition, and one that was dying out – but one young preacher is determined to bring it back. In this incredible story, Sunday Night was granted rare access inside the church so few people ever get to see. We follow Andrew Hamblin as he hunts for snakes, preaches with them, shirks the law and flirts with death at every turn. In each service, rattlesnakes, copperheads and cottonmouths are taken from their wooden boxes as believers cradle them in their arms, press them to their foreheads and dance with them. For the first time, our cameras are inside. Alex Perry He’s th

Mankind’s Rarest Disease Exclusive: The Big Mac Exclusive: P!nk The September Issue Mankind’s Rarest Disease Meet a quite extraordinary little boy, who holds the cure to some of the world’s most common diseases. Zach was born on Australia Day – a beautiful smiling baby. The doctors gave him a clean bill of health, and for 18 months his parents thought everything was normal. But as they would discover, little Zach has perhaps the rarest disease known to man – a genetic condition called Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva, or FOP. There are less than 800 known sufferers worldwide. As he ages, the soft tissue Zach’s body is slowly morphing into a second skeleton. His muscles are turning to bone. Eventually, he will be frozen as stiff as a statue. He’s turning into a ‘human mannequin’. But Zach’s family haven’t given up hope. We speak to an expert who says once they identify what went wrong in little Zach’s body, they will have a cure to a range of bone diseases, such as osteoporosis, and eventually even be able to grow new limbs for amputees. Exclusive: The Big Mac Reporter Rahni Sadler goes behind the scenes with super group Fleetwood Mac for a world exclusive as she discovers the latest twist in one of rock rolls greatest love stories. Join Sunday Night to find out not only what tore Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham apart, but what has now brought them back together again after 36 years of bitterness. We’ll also reveal how cocaine changed Stevie’s voice and how a love affair in Australia almost destroyed the band. Exclusive: P!nk The September Issue She’s the record-breaking rock star casting a spell over Australia. Pink is in the middle of the biggest tour ever to hit our shores: 46 arena shows at last count, each one an incredible two-hour spectacular that sees her fly high over audiences heads with her trademark aerial acrobatic feats.

Dying for Perfect Skin Slim Joe Cycle Wars Dying for Perfect Skin About 85 per cent of teenagers will suffer from acne at some stage, but what many desperate families don’t realise is the drugs their children are prescribed to treat acne can have serious – sometimes fatal – side effects. Roaccutane, Diane-35, Yasmin and Yaz are popular acne and skin treatments, but each has a trail of patient horror stories that hasn’t stopped doctors prescribing them for even mild cases of acne. Julian was an intelligent and sporty young law student when he was prescribed Roaccutane in 2008. His family was not warned to look out for mood changes, despite the drug having a long history of depressive, suicidal side effects in those who take it. Little over a year later, Julian had taken his own life. Four years on, his devastated mother is still searching for answers as to why her young son was given such a powerful drug for what was a mild cosmetic problem. Together, the drugs have caused dozens of deaths across Australia in recent years. Slim Joe The most surprising political story you will see this election campaign. Joe Hockey is hardly your typical Liberal politician. He was named after a Labor Prime Minister and his father was born and grew up in Palestine. But within months, Joseph Benedict Hockey could have one of the toughest jobs in Canberra: the next Treasurer of Australia. Getting there, though, has now been made much tougher. What once seemed a landslide Liberal win is now a neck-and-neck race to the finish line. And that’s not the biggest battle Joe Hockey has faced in recent times. Late last year, after a lifelong fight with obesity, the federal member for North Sydney went into hospital for radical weight loss surgery. He did it after his young daughter asked if he was still going to be around to attend her wedding. It was a life changing moment for the amiable pot-bellied pollie. Sunday Night is on the campaign trail with Hockey as enters the

Melbourne’s Miracle: Dead Man Walking Protecting Aussie Kids Jerry Hall Melbourne’s Miracle: Dead Man Walking Daniel Huf is a man with a second chance at life. A man literally back from the dead. When he flipped his dream Porsche at high speed on April Fool’s Day last year on the freeway outside Melbourne, Daniel was killed instantly. Three ambulance paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene. His body was cut out of the wreckage and left under a tarpaulin on the side of the road. He had no pulse. Over an hour after the accident the undertaker arrived to collect his corpse, but when it came time to put Daniel in the body bag something happened that no-one can explain. Daniel, who had sustained extensive head injuries, was suddenly breathing. The ambulance was recalled, and he was rushed to hospital. A year later he is back at work, back behind the wheel, and wondering why he was spared. In his amazing report, Alex Cullen interviews the fire captain who dragged Daniel’s lifeless body from the wreckage; he interviews the undertaker who had issued Daniel the Coroner’s tag of death. No-one can explain how Daniel came back from the dead, but his father – a Lutheran Minister – is convinced the answer lies in the giant cross overlooking the crash site. Was this a medical miracle or a second chance from God? Protecting Aussie Kids Imagine not knowing your family is living next door to a predator. In Australia this is a reality, but around the world it is a baffling concept. Sarah Monahan was the child star of the hit 80’s comedy show Hey Dad. But what millions of viewers never realised was that behind the smile, little Sarah was allegedly being sexually abused. Next year, more than 25 years later, one of her adult co-stars will stand trial charged with molesting her. These days Sarah is backing a campaign to protect all Australian children from predators with remarkable technology that is already freely available in the US yet illegal in Austr

Wandering Souls Jessica Mauboy Grandma Angel Wandering Souls War hero and Father of the Year Ben Roberts-Smith has a new assignment: a series of special reports for Sunday Night. Big Ben is one of only four living Australians to have earned the Victoria Cross, awarded to him for his extraordinary bravery in Afghanistan. In his first story this Sunday, Ben pays his first visit to Vietnam accompanying a group of Aussie vets on a remarkable and emotional mission. He’s with them as they return to the battleground of Long Tan, where they lost so many of their mates in one of the greatest battles in our military history. Now, 40 years after the end of the Vietnam War, these old diggers have gone back to return treasured keepsakes and photographs to the families of fallen Viet Cong soldiers. Diggers always kept notes, photos and trinkets to remember the fallen – even their enemies. Their journey to return these last remaining items is now bringing hope and closure to many of families of the 600,000 Vietnamese fighters still missing in action. Jessica Mauboy It’s been a wild ride for Jessica Mauboy – from outback tomboy teen to international pop star and awardwinning actor. Childhood singing competitions led to an audition for Australian Idol at the tender age of 16 and from there, it’s been a steady rise to the top. Through it all, though, she’s kept her feet on the ground and the love of her long-time boyfriend at home in Darwin. Sunday Night reporter Melissa Doyle travels to the Top End with Jess to see where it all began, and hear for the first time an incredible family revelation: Jessica’s starring role in The Sapphires led to the discovery of her long-lost great aunt, a member of the stolen generation. We also journey with Jess to Yiparinya School in Alice Springs – she’s the school’s ambassador, and the difference she’s making to these young Indigenous children’s lives brings tears to her eyes. Grandma Angel She’s the gr

Stoned Haven’t Seen The Last of Her Stoned He’s an AFL footy legend who lived decades with a dark secret. For more than 20 years – including every day of his playing career – this Collingwood great smoked marijuana. Later he progressed to amphetamines and alcohol to cope with life. He even got stoned the day his team won the Grand Final – and his memories of his greatest day are far different from his teammates. He kept his addition secret from everyone, including his wife. Marijuana almost destroyed his family, and now that he’s clean, he’s coming clean on the dangers of cannabis. But in famously liberal California, a group of Hollywood mums are taking him on. These Californian housewives claim pot is saving their marriages and making them better parents. Cheryl turned to marijuana after her marriage broke down, and credits the drug with weaning her off anti-depressants and controlling her anxiety. She now runs a 30-hectare legal cannabis plantation with her daughter and hosts regular pot parties where she and her fellow mums get ‘medicated’. This is a controversial angle on the drug debate that is seldom heard. Haven’t Seen The Last of Her For one unforgettable day, Sunday Night’s Rahni Sadler steps inside Cher’s grand Malibu mansion to talk with the pop diva about her incredible life. At 67 and on the verge of a comeback, she wanted to tell all in this pull-no-punches interview. Humble, unaffected and brutally honest, she swears like a sailor and happily dishes the truth on her famous romances, her lifelong bond with Sonny Bono, and a tumultuous career that’s seen her pick up an Oscar, an Emmy, two Golden Globes and a BAFTA. Cher’s family life has been just as eventful as her remarkable roller-coaster professional life: and she almost didn’t make it into the world. Her mother was literally lying on the abortion table when she changed her mind and one of entertainment’s biggest names was born. As a child she was placed

Bionic Dad The day, 23 years ago that Matthew met Diane at university, the teenagers shared a bond. Within weeks they both knew they wanted to spend the rest of their lives together. If it’s possible to have the perfect relationship, this couple is living proof it exists. If you ever doubted the power of true love to conquer any obstacle then don’t miss this emotional Mike Willesee special event. When devoted father-of-four Matthew Ames fell ill with what he thought was a bout of “man flu” 18 months ago, he took a few days off work. When he didn’t feel any better, he visited four GP’s who each sent him back to bed. Finally, in agony, his family took him to the hospital. Within hours he was in a coma and surgeons had amputated his left arm. Matthew had gone into toxic shock from an infection of Streptococcus – a common bacteria nearly all of us have in the back of our throats or on our skin. It’s harmless unless, as in Matthew’s case, it travels into your bloodstream. As the poison spread quickly through his body, doctors told Diane that Matthew had just a one per cent chance of survival – but they would need to remove all his limbs to give him that chance. When Matthew awoke, he was told he’d lost both arms and legs. Diane insisted she break the news. It was the second toughest moment of her life, second only to taking her children to the hospital to say goodbye to Matthew before his life or death operation. What happens over the next few hours and weeks to this point, 18 months later, is truly inspiring.

Childless Shark Trackers Jackie Collins Childless Three incredibly brave women meet for the very first time to talk about the one terrible thing they all have in common. Between them, these mums have lost six kids – all killed by husbands wanting to inflict the ultimate heartbreak on their partners. Few could forget Cindy Gambino’s harrowing story. The Victorian mum lost her three young boys on Father’s Day 2005, when their dad Robert Farquharson deliberately drove them into a dam, leaving them to drown as he swam free. For years, Farquharson battled the courts, insisting the triple-murder was an accident. But now, as he’s lost his final appeal and will spend the rest of his life behind bars, Sunday Night can reveal shocking new details from the case that were hidden from public view, including the evidence from Robert’s mate that helped to convict the killer. You’ll also hear from a psychologist who was never called as a witness in court, despite Farquharson talking about his evil thoughts in the months leading up to the crime. Shark Trackers A crew hauls a giant great white shark onto their boat, wrestling with the fierce predator as it struggles on deck. These aren’t just fishermen – they’re scientists, and their mission is to save this endangered titan of the sea from the brink of extinction. Alex Cullen is on the water with the OCEARCH scientific team in the Atlantic Ocean – a haven for sharks. They are doing high-risk work, tagging sharks before releasing them so they can better understand the animals’ habits in the wild. But the rewards are great, as the information can serve to protect both animals and humans. When tagged sharks swim close to beaches, the call goes out to get swimmers out of harm’s way. And yet, here in Australia, the federal government has stifled attempts to set up a similar tagging program. Jackie Collins Her 29 novels have sold 500 million copies and been translated into 50 languages. At 75, an

The Girl Behind the Mask In the early hours of February 16 last year, Dana was woken by the drug-addled woman who had broken into the house convinced her estranged husband was there. The argument ended when the woman doused Dana with methylated sprits, setting her alight. Dana suffered third-degree burns to almost two thirds of her body which has left her permanently scarred and forced to wear a full burns bodysuit. More than 18-months on, Dana continues to undergo painful surgery – but as Sunday Night’s Rahni Sadler discovers, her spirit has not been broken. Tomorrow the woman found guilty of deliberately setting fire to her, Natalie Dimitrovska, will appear in a Perth court for sentencing.

Darcy’s Story Roar Sweetie Darling Darcy’s Story Darcy Higgins’ dream was to join the Defence Force. That dream was shattered early one morning last year when, driving on his scooter, he was hit head on by a passing van. Darcy spent the first nine days after the accident in a coma, battling a horrific list of injuries: fractured skull, collapsed lung and detached kneecap among them. Darcy had to learn how to walk and talk again – and he was left despondent with the realisation that his Army dream, once so close, was fading away. Desperate to give Darcy a reason to keep going, his girlfriend Chanelle reached out to Australia’s most decorated living war hero, Ben Roberts-Smith. The pair soon struck up a strong bond, and their friendship has aided Darcy’s miraculous recovery. Roar Katy Perry wrote her latest hit Roar, a self-empowerment anthem, from the heart. Eighteen months ago, the vivacious pop star was at her lowest ebb – lost and going through a very public divorce with comedian Russell Brand, who infamously ended their marriage via text message. In this exclusive interview, Katy opens up to Sunday Night special guest reporter Jackie Frank about fighting her way back from those lows with a new positive attitude, showcased on her stunning new album Prism. Sweetie Darling Join us for champers at the Savoy Hotel with Edina herself! From French & Saunders to Absolutely Fabulous, Jennifer Saunders is comedy royalty. But she’s been notoriously publicity-shy throughout her incredible thirty-year career. With the release of an autobiography, Bonkers, Jennifer is ready to share her story with the world. She talks to Sunday Night’s Ross Coulthart about everything from her lifelong friendships with Dawn French and Joanna Lumley to her breast cancer battle in recent years. And then there was the time she got flashed in a restaurant by Dolly Parton…

A Man Named Don Imagine Mark Donaldson A Man Named Don This Sunday, host Chris Bath presents a very special report on a man named Don. Devoted husband of almost 50 years to his wife Maureen, Don loves his daughters and his grandkids. But Don’s life changed forever on April 9, 2009 when he suffered a stroke. Don is Chris Bath’s father. Every 10 minutes in Australia, someone has stroke. It’s the second biggest killer in the country, but 80 per cent of strokes are preventable. This story is deeply personal for Chris, who is going public about her family’s private struggle because she’s fed up with the lack of support offered to stroke victims and their families. She also highlights the work being done on the other side of the world by two pioneering Australian doctors transforming stroke rehabilitation and offering hope to thousands of survivors. Chris delivers her wake-up call to the government about the real effect of strokes in this emotional and brutally honest report. Imagine Once the most hated woman in the world, blamed for the break-up of The Beatles, Derryn Hinch meets the feisty and very opinionated Yoko Ono. In a rare and very revealing interview, Yoko opens up about rock ‘n’ roll’s most famous love story. Her colourful and very public affair with John Lennon was mocked by Beatles fans around the world. Now, more than 30 years after his assassination, Yoko tells all about their extraordinary secret bond, the couple’s alienation from music’s most successful band, and the night John Lennon was shot dead. Mark Donaldson At 15, Mark Donaldson’s father – a Vietnam veteran who’d returned from war with PTSD – passed away. Four years later his mother was murdered. The case has never been solved. Not surprisingly, grief-stricken Donaldson went off the rails, becoming a punk and a drunk on the streets of Sydney, even disrupting an ANZAC dawn service. In 2002, to get his life back on track, Donaldson joined the army. Two

Twice Bitten JFK’s Homecoming Love Actually Patricia Cornwell Twice Bitten Fisherman Greg Pickering was underwater in one of the most remote areas of the country, 30 meters from shore but hundreds of kilometres from help, when a Great White Shark snapped its jaws around his skull and wouldn’t let go. Greg, a father of four, is the only man in the world to be attacked – in separate incidents – by sharks and live to tell the tale. And what a story this is. How he used his experience as a diver to hold his breath and rise to the surface slowly despite the water turning red from the blood pouring from his horrific injuries. Once aboard his boat his life was saved by a quick-thinking mate who used a roll of tape to hold his shredded face together. It would be another eight hours until he would reach hospital. Less than six weeks after the attack, reporter Mark Ferguson takes Greg back to the location where he came face to face with nature’s most deadly killing machine. JFK’s Homecoming On November 22nd, 1963 the world changed. John F. Kennedy was in Dallas travelling in the presidential motorcade when he was shot dead by a sniper. This Sunday, exclusive footage you have never seen. The Kennedy daughters for the first time speak intimately about the events leading up to and surrounding one of the most infamous moments in world history. Before his assassination JFK returned to Ireland, where all four of his grandparents were born. He vowed to visit again, but never made it. On Sunday Night, cameras are rolling for his family’s emotional return to Ireland to honour the fallen President. Love Actually To some people, he will always be Mr Darcy, but this week Colin Firth is far from proper as he sits down with friend Nicole Kidman for an interview with a difference. It seems the on screen romance between the pair is matched perfectly by their off-screen chemistry. In this fun, flirtatious interview the pair let their guard down to discuss ev

Murder Mark Donaldson VC Growing Old Disgracefully Murder A sacked air hostess, a mounted police officer guarding the Governor General – an incredible story of murder, torture and intimidation. This remarkable international investigation by Sunday Night reporter Ross Coulthart involves an explosive confession letter, allegations of love and betrayal, a dramatic trial in a South African court, and confrontations with the two Australians at the centre of it all. Once the case is examined, the former air hostess agrees to sit down for a powerful interview to answer the accusations that she led a murderous gang who terrorised staff at her father’s restaurant. She says she will fight any attempt to have her extradited to face her accusers. Mark Donaldson VC Earlier this month, we brought you just a taste of Mark Donaldson’s incredible life story. On Sunday we bring you our full report on the tumultuous life of this remarkable man. A teenage tearaway, Donaldson’s life changed forever following the tragic disappearance of his beloved mum when he was 19. She was presumed murdered and the case was never solved – a burden Donaldson carries to this day. Now, he’s a decorated war hero, having been awarded the Victoria Cross medal for Australia for his efforts fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan. Find out how one man managed to turn his life around from personal tragedy to become a father, a husband, and an Australian hero. Growing Old Disgracefully Dollar-90, Sargeant Sel, B-B Rizzle and the other members of the Hip Operation crew reckon they’ve found the secret to eternal youth: NEVER act your age, even when you’re 94 (and four months). These tough-talkin ‘, crotch-grabbin’ street dancers are possibly the world’s only geriatric hip-hop group. They joke that each dance could be their last, so they’re making every one count. Sunday Night reporter PJ Madam follows this infectiously upbeat group for one wild trip to the World Hip Hop Cha
