Thanks for the advance warning. The Guides have been appropriately amended. For some reason the Steve Irwin Memorial Service is 20 minutes shorter on ABC in SA, NT and WA.

Channel 7 in Brisbane have announced a repeat of the Steve Irwin memorial on Wednesday from 5pm-6pm.

Thanks Evan .......  have put in 5 - 5:30 as this seems to be the popular opinion. But only knew that after your tip so ta.

Looks like you are correct. Seven have indeed scheduled a 30 min replay. The live broadcast is scheduled for 60 mins.

Don't know why you would edit out half of a memorial service!

Further to this.

Last night's Channel 9 news in Brisbane (only just watching it now) had a banner announcing they will show the full hour replay between 5 & 6pm on Wednesday.
