Hi All,
I’m afraid I don’t have the ratings for Wake Up and Studio 10 as they are not included in the list of the top 100 programs, and as the official ratings year has ended, I no longer get a daily ratings report for morning television. Until next year!
Cheers,
Megan
No worries – thanks Megan! : )

‘Keating’ only confirmed what many people already knew – he never admitted he was wrong on anything even when the economy was faltering, always had a high opinion of himself, and that his 3 years as Prime Minister is quite possibly the worse 3 years Australia had socially and politically.

I found Keating inspiring and wish there were more like him. He had a vision for Australia that connected us to Asia. History will see him as a great man who was ahead of his time. I wish he were still PM!
