One little tangent I will leave you all with.
I packed up my parents’ bookshelf the day after the AACTA Awards, and I had to pack our #WilliamMcInnes books into the boxes. They have been on the shelves for years, and Mum and I met him on set during our visit. How about that!
Today’s quick post at News At Six 1986 before getting back into the house packing madness: unit stills from a certain special scene from S03E05, and my personal memories of being there for the filming of it ❤️🌟📺

Who’s to blame when parties get out of hand?
Who’s to blame when a boss’ attendance was totally unplanned?
Is there a way to save this party that’s gone out of bounds?

On the opposite poolside, someone else was in a daring mood too.
“Hey everyone!” Ross called out. “We’re gonna go swimming!”
A few cheers came from all around, before Ross star jumped fully clothed into the water.

As Dale went away, Kay batted back tears and pursed her lips together, grabbing her bag and charging off behind Dale.
“Goodnight, Kitten,” Lindsay bade his goddaughter farewell.
#PhilippaNortheast #WilliamMcInnes #TheNewsreader
Drunken confidence can land you in hot water, but #DaleJennings was quite aware that #LindsayCunningham was a man who was all talk, but no action.
Who was the man by the poolside who truly followed through on his words and made a splash?

“Listen, just as, uhh, Kay’s godfather,” Lindsay feigned godfatherly concern to Evelyn, “I think I should register my concern about that particular coupling.
“I have no interest in anything you have to say,” Evelyn replied coolly.
#MargDowney #WilliamMcInnes #TheNewsreader
Dale found an escape for himself and Kay.
“We should go and congratulate Cheryl and Brian.”
“You should!” Lindsay agreed, clasping his hands together.

It’s #WilliamMcInnes’ birthday today, according to Wikipedia!
A massive happy birthday to the talented bloke who brings the character we all love to hate to life, #LindsayCunningham!
Hoping he is having a great day today, from fans of #TheNewsreader everywhere! ❤️🌟🎉🎂
Eyeing Lindsay down, Rob knew he had to take an even larger stand, and draw a harder line.
Who would he be if he didn’t?
#StephenPeacocke #WilliamMcInnes #TheNewsreader
“Why are you defending Helen Norville?” Lindsay laughed.
“I mean, I understand why you’re sticking up for… well, you… you’re married to Yoko Ono there,” Lindsay pointed to a quietly furious Noelene.
“But, Helen?”
#WilliamMcInnes #TheNewsreader
“There’s a great irony about you, Rob Rickards, coz you actually live your life like you played your footy.”
“You are an artless, witless, gutless pr*ck.” Lindsay told Rob, chomping on his cake.
#WilliamMcInnes #TheNewsreader
Rob just didn’t get why Lindsay would do this to Helen.
“But why now?” He exasperated, and Evelyn sighed heavily.
Kay eyed off Lindsay across the aisle, scratching his face, unaware he was the subject of gossip.
#WilliamMcInnes #MargDowney #PhilippaNortheast #TheNewsreader
“Well, in my experience with that man, it’s usually wise to assume the worst.” Evelyn shared, her years of experience with Lindsay and Geoff giving her a pretty well informed opinion of the man.

Despite people taking the mickey out of the Logie Awards, #WilliamMcInnes truly believed they were a part of the Australian cultural psyche.
“…but they were like, they’re Australian. They’re us.”
A beautiful sentiment, Mr McInnes! ❤️🌟📺
#TheNewsreader
#WilliamMcInnes did, however, speak rather sincerely and sentimentally about the iconic Logie Awards ceremony.
“I love the Logies cause, you know, people always wanted to take the mickey out of them…”
#TheNewsreader
#WilliamMcInnes had an interesting way of describing the nature and feel of the Logies.
“I always used to think the Logies were a little bit like a cross between a sort of school presentation night and a rugby night, so I used to treat them as such.”
#TheNewsreader
In conjunction with the Logies episode, the ABC uploaded a video titled ‘On Set With #TheNewsreader Cast’, where #MichelleLimDavidson, #StephenPeacocke, #ChumEhelepola and #WilliamMcInnes shared their thoughts about attending award show ceremonies like the Logies ❤️🌟
Four brand new unit stills from Season Three that fans of #TheNewsreader were recently treated to!
At last, a solo shot of Leonie! 🎉
Also thrilled that we got one of Rob showing off his Logie too! ❤️

The crowd went wild as Rob Rickards hopped out of the News At Six cab, and he waved warmly to the crowd.
“Hey Rob, mate, don’t embarrass us, alright?” Lindsay ordered.
When would Rob ever do that? 😉
#StephenPeacocke #WilliamMcInnes #TheNewsreader
Lindsay scoffed at Noelene’s proactive and firm response.
“Oh yeah, of course you did! Commiserations Rob. Whatever she gets, we’re gonna treble that, and we’re going to take it off your next contract.”
#WilliamMcInnes #TheNewsreader
Despite Noelene’s best efforts to back Lee and Tim’s pitch and support was Lee was saying, the News At Six boss was much too concerned about nice noodles to care about the fall of communism.

After accusing Dennis of not being a team player, Lindsay looked over his shoulder.
“Jeannie?”
Jean scowled at him. “Absolutely not,” she hissed, and strode out of his office in disgust.
Love you, Jeannie! 💖👸🏻🌟

Dale nonchalantly left his office, with Lindsay calling out behind him:
“Keep an eye out for what might be in the papers, Dale! Something for your mum to cut out and stick in one of her albums!”
#SamReid #WilliamMcInnes #TheNewsreader
A “strange little insect,” his blackmailer, and the secret showdown between the two of them that no one else in the office knew about.
Not even yours truly, who was really there when this scene was being filmed! 😉❤️📺🌟
#SamReid #WilliamMcInnes #TheNewsreader
#WilliamMcInnes’ character especially has a beautiful familial relationship with the sweet and smart forensic scientist Bluebird ‘Blue’ Gleeson (played by #MavourneeHazel), which is heartwarming to watch! 💖
#NCISSydney
Possibly the character #WilliamMcInnes has played in recent years which feels most like him would be Dr Roy Penrose from #NCISSydney. I have loved watching him in action on this show!
Dr Penrose is a forensic pathologist for the Australian Federal Police, helping the NCIS.
Didn’t Lindsay make himself seen, heard and known throughout the entirety of #TheNewsreader’s story?
Just as you think he couldn’t be more unlikeable or detestable, he goes ahead and proves that he can 😣
#WilliamMcInnes
Dale begrudgingly listened to Lindsay and Dennis’ reasonings; entertained their requests, and walked out, obliging to look at his speech to see what he could do.
