Breaking Radio Silence Mystery in the Devil's Triangle Breaking Radio Silence In December 2012, Mel Greig and 2DayFM co-host Michael Christian pretended to be the Queen and Prince Charles and called the King Edward VII Hospital in London where a pregnant Kate Middleton was being treated for acute morning sickness. A nurse revealed details of Kate’s condition – an unexpected scoop that made headlines around the world. In an exclusive interview with Sunday Night guest reporter Mel Doyle, Mel Greig told how she urged senior managers to alter the recording. She wanted 2DayFM staff members’ voices to be used instead of the nurses – so they’d be spared any embarrassment. Her suggestion was ignored. The call went to air unaltered. Mystery in the Devil's Triangle It’s the greatest unsolved aviation mystery in Australian history, even more baffling than the disappearance of MH370. How could a plane full of passengers just disappear near a major Australian city and not be found for 33 years? Ghost flight VH-MDX was bound for Sydney when it vanished somewhere over Devil’s Triangle – an area of the Barrington Tops in New South Wales which is the most remote and impenetrable terrain in the country. Other aircraft have disappeared there but always been found. VH-MDX disappeared from radar screens into chilling silence. For the first time this weekend, Sunday Night will broadcast the final conversation between air traffic control and the pilot in those final dramatic moments.
