Set in the tumultuous world of a television newsroom, Werner Film Productions’ The Newsreader takes us back to 1986 – when Halley’s Comet was a must see, the AIDS crisis was taking hold and the Challenger explosion shocked the world.  Amongst it all, newsreader Helen Norville (Anna Torv) is determined to build her credibility, while her colleague Dale Jennings (Sam Reid) is desperate to become a newsreader.   

The series is created by Michael Lucas, who penned the script with Jonathan Gavin, Niki Aken and Kim Ho. The executive producers are Werner and Stuart Menzies, and Brett Sleigh and Sally Riley for the ABC. The Newsreader is set to premiere August 15 at 8.30pm on ABC TV and ABC iview.
