Channel 10 unveils first look at The Project's replacement
Channel 10 has unveiled the first look at 10 News+, its new show which will air in place of The Project when it wraps up at end of the month after 16 years. The glossy promo, which Network 10 shared across social media and its main channels, features the program's two hosts, journalists Denham Hitchcock and Amelia Brace, reeling off their credentials to prospective new viewers in a bid to showcase the show's dedication to hard-hitting news. The pair, who both recently jumped ship from the troubled Seven Network, reveal they have 'been on the road' and 'travelled to every corner of the globe' while promising to deliver the 'truth first'. With the show less than two weeks away from launching, Channel 10 are ramping up the promotion in a bid to entice viewers to take a gamble with the new show. However, the exact format of the show still remains relatively unclear, despite the promo push from the network, which could be a critical error in their hopes of persuading viewers to switch over from the more familiar news bulletin offerings on Seven and Nine. It was confirmed last week that current affairs and entertainment panel program The Project was wrapping up at the end of this month after 16 years on air, with hosts Waleed Aly, Sarah Harris and Hamish Macdonald all leaving the network. Another of its departing regular panellists, comedian Sam Taunton, broke his silence on the show's axing during his latest stand-up routine, joking about his family's reaction to the news. 'It's just like everyone f**king knows you've lost your job and it's crazy,' said the comedian. 'My dad rang me and said: 'Look, if I'm honest, the show wasn't for me. I prefer real news.'' He continued: 'My girlfriend just sent me a Google Docs spreadsheet that said 'Chores now that Sam's unemployed.'' Taunton also revealed during his set that co-star Aly had warned him about the attention they would be receiving after the news was announced to the world that the show was coming to an end.'It's weird losing your job very publicly. Waleed, you might know that guy. He texted me on Wednesday and he goes, he goes, I'm so sorry, Sam. Get prepared. I just got papped by the paparazzi outside Chemist Warehouse near the studio.'
