Description
The News at Six team have their journalistic standards challenged by a mass shooting in a sleepy Melbourne suburb. Helen's accused of being too cold and aggressive, while makeup artist, "tea-and-three sugars" Cheryl, is being used by Evelyn to level the score.
Leigh Sales and Lisa Millar meet the star of The Newsreader, Anna Torv to hear about the inspiration behind Helen's news voice and to get the inside-scoop on the inner workings of Helen and Dale.
Lisa calls on an old journo mate to take us back to the real-life scene of the shocking Hoddle St shootings in 1987.
