Yikes - 80. I'm old enough to remember her having TV cameras follow her pregnancy...

From what I have seen of that channel, I would bet she is paying for the airtime.

That I only very vaguely recall now that you mention it. I guess with age comes selective memory

I checked out the website, it looks like it has a few shows I might check out, but nothing stands out for me. Its nice that there is a platform for programs like this.

I have tuned into News Forum a few times quite randomly. Not too bad but it is one of those channels that you can’t rewind if you missed something, which I tend to do! Having worked with Dini years ago, I might tune in to check out her show.

Wonder if she can still fly a helicopter.
Remember when she did traffic for CITY and Moses insisted she be dubbed the "Traffic Bunny."
Back when a woman who could fly a helicopter was still considered a trivial sex object.

Everyone remembers Dini Petty and the pink helicopter. I wonder how many recall her successor - Dianne Pepper?

Dianne Pepper? Yes, I remember her.
By the way, the interwebs tell me she is now Pepper The Clown.
