Graham Richardson will make a bold return to Sky News Live’s Wednesday primetime line-up following his recovery from surgery.
From this week, Richo will return home to Wednesdays at 8:00pm as Australia’s ultimate political insider brings his unique insights into a range of the day’s topics, not just politics.
Angelos Frangopoulos, Australian News Channel CEO said: “Richo has been working his way back to a full on-air workload since undergoing life-saving surgery more than a year ago. He is an outstanding commentator and we’re delighted to see him back on Wednesday nights.”
Richo’s return to Wednesday nights will see a number of changes to the primetime schedule.
Peta Credlin joins Alan Jones as co-host on Jones & Co, Tuesdays at 8:00pm. Two of Australia’s most prominent and influential commentators, Alan and Peta will bring viewers powerful analysis, lively discussion and guests from across the political spectrum.
Sky News also confirmed planning is underway for a new program to be anchored by Peta Credlin, with further details to be announced later in 2017.
With Richo’s return to Wednesday nights, Credlin Keneally goes into recess as Kristina Keneally steps up to a bigger role on Sky News daytime, anchoring LIVE coverage from Canberra during sitting weeks alongside Peter van Onselen.
Former Queensland Premier Campbell Newman will join Peter Beattie each week on Beattie & Reith, Mondays at 8:00pm while Peter Reith continues his recovery. The Sky News team wish him a speedy recovery and look forward to seeing him back in the studio soon.
