SEASON THREE STORY
We first met Dale Jennings (Reid) and Helen Norville (Torv) in 1986 when
a fledgling Dale was desperate to be a star newsreader, and Helen was
fighting to be taken seriously as a journalist. Now Dale and Helen have
finally achieved both these long held dreams. Dale is News At Six’s
‘King of News’, fronting the show solo he has become the most beloved name 
in news, a Gold Logie nominee, permanently number one in the nightly ratings. Meanwhile Helen’s fearless international reporting has won her
great acclaim.
But when a cynical network move sees the two former lovers pitted in
direct competition, their kinship will be tested as never before. Over
the course of 1989, Helen and Dale will compete to cover a cascade of
historical events, from the Exxon Valdez oil spill, to the Tiananmen
Square massacre, the boycotts of South Africa’s Apartheid, and the fall
of the Berlin Wall.

Just realized that she played a FBI agent in Fringe..haven't watched anything from Sam Reid.
ReplyDeleteShe played in a number of US shows. Everything Reid ever did was mighty fine, so you are missing out on a lot!
DeleteI was wondering where I knew her from!
DeleteThis sounds pretty good. I will probably check this out.
DeleteIt does not air in US, sadly, it did before on Roku, methinks.
DeleteIt stinks that we don't get it here. I'm sure it's a good watch.
ReplyDeleteI am in love with it, adore it absolutely.
