Hi Abigail
Love your work. You certainly keep them all on their toes.
It would be worth your while checking in with the brains trust at Ten to see how the voice coach is going.
The “expert” was on hand on Monday and she has had a revolving door of people coming and going.
I’m surprised you haven’t noticed any change on air this week. The eloquence, the style, the annunciation. Superb.
Wow. What a difference a voice coach will do for ratings, which I might add are at their lowest.
I’m sure the CEO, a kiwi, and CBS executives, yanks, are basking in this new found Aussie twang.
Give me a break!
