They’re local, lovable, larrikins who know what’s happening around town. Gary Adshead’s coverage of the issues that impact how we live are second to none and his expert coverage of the Teacher’s strike recently was a fine example of this. 

“The huge growth in audience in Afternoons with Julie-anne Sprague shows the connection Julie-anne is making with her audience, who tune in to hear her excellent in-depth interviews and one-eyed support of her beloved West Coast Eagles. Oliver Peterson’s Perth Live show continues to be a must listen for everything from  breaking News to food reviews and everything in between.

“When big News breaks around Perth, people turn to 6PR. Not just for the details, it’s the analysis, the conversation and the community that talk radio provides that appeals to those who care about their city.

Landmark investigation by The Age, Herald and 60 MINUTES into evidence that locked up a man for murdering his three children

The five-part podcast series comes as a joint 60 MINUTES, The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald investigation, which screened last night, delves into the evidence around the tragic deaths of three children nearly two decades ago.  

When Robert Farquharson drove his three young sons into a dam on Father’s Day, 2005, he was accused of an unthinkable crime that left a nation reeling. Two juries subsequently found him guilty of triple murder and a judge sentenced him to 33 years in prison. 

Farquharson has always insisted he is innocent, saying it was a tragic accident. He maintains that he coughed and passed out, that he woke up in the dam, and when he got out to help his children, the car disappeared in deep water before he could rescue them.

A growing band of scientists, doctors and lawyers are concerned that the evidence against him was not strong enough to prove his guilt beyond reasonable doubt. They say new evidence has emerged in recent years that shows Farquharson’s story, rejected by the juries, could be the unlikely, unlucky truth.

Hosted by award-winning investigative journalist Michael Bachelard, the series will take listeners deep into the evidence to dissect the case, play never-before heard audio from inside the courtroom and contain exclusive interviews with detectives, scientists and doctors. 

Produced by the team behind the award-winning podcast, Liar Liar and Phoebe’s Fall, Trial By Water poses the difficult question – could a convicted, triple murderer who is currently sitting in a protection unit in the maximum security Barwon Prison win an appeal and be proven innocent?   

Bachelard goes deep into the evidence to critically appraise the prosecution and examine if Farquharson’s claims stack up. The series comes as Farquharson attempts to secure a new appeal later this year – with the support of a number of scientists and experts, eminent in their fields. 

“Investigating this series has thrown up serious questions about how our courts deal with expert and scientific evidence, and whether there are sufficient safeguards built into the system,” said Bachelard. “These questions concern all of us.”

The Head of Investigative podcasts, Ruby Schwartz, who produced the series said: “Listeners will get to hear audio that only the jury, the police, and people inside the courtroom have ever heard before. We have exclusive interviews with key police officers and scientists and doctors – we really take you inside the case.”

The series – which will be launched with a feature cover story in tomorrow’s Good Weekend magazine – will be supported by interactive digital coverage.

Trial by Water, which launched on Saturday, June 1, is available on APPLE, Spotify  and all other podcast apps.

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL LIVE AND FREE ON 9GEMHD AND 9NOW

THE TITANS OF WORLD FOOTBALL BATTLE FOR THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE CROWN
STAN SPORT, AD-FREE, LIVE AND ON-DEMAND IN 4K UHD

This mouthwatering final pits two giants of world football against each other, where the champion will be crowned at London’s historic Wembley Stadium for a record eighth time. 

In a David and Goliath match-up, 14-time European champions Real Madrid – who have the most titles in UEFA history – face German Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund, who are out to cause an upset. 

Real Madrid are heavy favourites after a season of dominance, both at home where they cruised to another Spanish La Liga title, and in Europe, storming to the Champions League final. They are driven by standout stars Vinicius Jr and Toni Kroos, alongside Jude Bellingham in his first season at Real Madrid after ironically transferring from their Champions League rival. 

Dortmund are UEFA’s Cinderella story. Despite finishing fifth in the Bundesliga, they need to defeat Real Madrid in order to return for next season’s UEFA competition. On their path to Wembley they have conquered top-tier teams including Paris Saint-Germain, Atletico Madrid and AC Milan. 

Covering all the action will be host Max Rushden alongside Socceroos legends and expert commentators Mark Bosnich, and Craig Foster.

Joining Foster live from London will be legendary football commentator Martin Tyler, for special guest comments throughout the broadcast.

English Premier League winner Mark Bosnich said: “It’s the underdogs versus the top dogs when Borussia Dortmund meet Real Madrid. 

“Dortmund have one previous title, in 1997, and Real Madrid have a record 14 titles. The contrasts could not be more stark, but the black and yellow have a chance to pull off a famous upset against the Kings of Europe.”

Bozza’s fun facts:

  • Jude Bellingham signed for Real Madrid from Dortmund at the start of the season for $147 million and has scored 23 goals with 12 assists from 41 games in all competitions.
  • Dortmund will be playing in their third final. The last one was also at Wembley in 2013 where they lost 1-2 to Bayern Munich.

Lenny Kravitz will be the pre-match entertainment for the UEFA final.
