Angela Bishop filled in this morning with Brendan ‘Jonesy’ Jones on Sydney’s WSFM while Amanda Keller is off with Dr Chris Brown filming his Once in a Lifetime Channel 7 series.
Amanda said on air Tuesday morning of her planned leave:
“This is a show I know that he’s (Dr Chris Brown) wanted to do for years… I do know which country I’m going to, but I’m not allowed to say. It’s in Africa.”
“It’s Chris’s show. He and I are hanging out, and I’m going to be having experiences. My nature is to over-research things and there’s nothing I can do. I can’t do that. So it’s a TV show where I can go into it floating, I can get on a plane and not have to be anxious about having to prepare something. It’s a real gift for me, so I’m excited. But I have arranged for people to come in and play with you while I’m away.”
Brown and Keller were part of TEN’s The Living Room together for a decade, becoming close friends. It’s a pleasing change that ARN have allowed Keller the flexibility to have such adventures while in a ratings period. For Jonesy, we’ll see who’s lined up for him next. I’m free Monday!
