You’d be hard-pressed to meet a Melburnian who doesn’t have a soft spot for Peter Hitchener. Even in this 24/7 news cycle, where updates are available everywhere and anywhere, there’s something reassuring about having the day’s events delivered by a familiar, trusted face. In this week’s cover story, Sue Smethurst chats to the “nicest man in TV”. A fixture in Victorian homes since the mid-’70s, Hitchener’s respect and warmth for his audience is one of the many reasons he’s a winner. ●

eter Hitchener could have commanded a gala event to celebrate his recent 75th birthday, but it speaks to the humble heart of this much-loved newsreader that his wish was to mark the occasion simply, just a cake shared with his Channel Nine family.

After almost a year of working in an iso-bubble, a firewall to protect him from COVID-19, “Hitch”, as he is lovingly known, couldn’t wait to be back in the newsroom, relishing every opportunity to catch up with his team.

“I missed them all terribly. The newsroom was separated into teams,” he says. “I wasn’t allowed into the newsroom at all during the lockdowns. I was only allowed to go from my dressing room, to the makeup room and the studio.

“It worked well because we all stayed healthy but I’m a people person and it was very strange to come to work and not have contact with anyone.”

Now that life has returned to something resembling normal, Hitchener is sipping a long black in the studios of Channel Nine, shadowed by towering buildings and the industrial architecture that drapes Melbourne’s Docklands precinct.

Nine News anchor Peter Hitchener takes time out at his ‘workstation’.

It’s not lost on the iconic newsreader, who’s been coming into our homes every weeknight since 1998, that he’s a long way from Texas, the remote Queensland border town where he grew up.

“We are a very long way from Texas!” he laughs. “As I was growing up in the outback, I never imagined I’d doing something like this. I think I’m incredibly lucky; I love my job, I just adore it and it’s a real gift to find the thing you love to do in life.”

Hitchener was raised on a cattle and sheep farm that ran alongside the Dumaresq river. He has fond memories of his quintessential Australian outback childhood, “of floods, fire and all of the drama that came with living in the bush”.

time because it really was an essential service to keep track of what was going on. I can’t really remember a time when the news wasn’t part of my life.”

While still at school, his talents for capturing an audience’s attention caught the eye of the National Institute of Dramatic Art, to which he was offered a coveted acting scholarship, but he rejected the offer, instead taking a job in the newsroom of radio 4BH Brisbane, and found his calling.

“I was home,” he says.

Now very much a Melbourne institution, at 75, he shows no signs of slowing down.

“I never think about age, and how long I keep going is really up to the

“Age is such a state of mind; I don’t feel any different to how I did when I first began. I honestly think you only get ‘old’ if you don’t continue to engage and embrace life – that’s what makes you old.”

Perhaps one of the best tools Hitchener has found for keeping young is social media. He has embraced Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat in a way that would put his younger colleagues to shame, with more than 60,000 followers enjoying his thoughtful and positive posts, which reflect the zest for life and love of Melbourne for which he is known.

“Hitch is such a positive force in our newsroom, he’s a great mentor for colleagues young and old,” says Hugh Nailon, Nine’s Melbourne

“I don’t feel any different to how I did when I first began. I honestly think you only get ‘old’ if you don’t continue to engage and embrace life.

That’s what makes you old.”

“My sister and I loved it when the creeks flooded because we couldn’t go to school,” he recalls. “We’d have a few weeks at home while the water subsided. We thought it was terrific.”

By the tender age of 12, he’d outgrown the town’s one-teacher primary school and was off to boarding school in Brisbane.

Unwittingly, he’d already developed a love and respect for the news.

“I grew up listening to the news, it was a big presence in our lives.

There was no television back then and the newspapers were only delivered a couple of times a week but the ABC radio was on all the

audience. I’m not sure if the company has a ruling about chubby geriatrics,” he quips with his notoriously self-deprecating sense of humour. “It really is about the audience and if the ratings are terrible, I’ll be gone, but I have no plans to retire.

“One of the first people I met when I came to work in Melbourne in 1974 was Sir Eric Pearce, who I adored. I’m not sure how old he would’ve been then, but he seemed quite old with his distinguished hair and that wonderful voice – I’m probably older now than he was then!

news director. “He is the embodiment of a living legend; so much so we named our newsroom after him. We actually have a plaque which simply acknowledges he is ‘the nicest man in television’.

“You don’t remain at the top of your game for four decades merely by being a good bloke. Behind the friendly demeanour is a fierce competitiveness and commitment to professionalism that drives his success and we’re enormously proud that he presents our hard work every night.” ● NINE NEWS \ Nightly at 6pm.

Eddie Betts, Carlton’s star forward, at home in Essendon.

CHARLIE KINROSS

aturally private AFL hero Eddie Betts would usually eschew the limelight, but the Carlton star is front and centre of a new documentary and hopes it will do for audiences as the title suggests.

Seven-part series Making Their Mark follows players, executives and coaches across six AFL teams including GWS captain Stephen Coniglio and Richmond president Peggy O’Neal and explores how they dealt with the highs, lows and blows – on and off the field – while based at the Gold Coast hub in season 2020.

The documentary begins with Betts’ return to Carlton, the club at which he began career in 2005, and delves into what life was like during the toughest year for the AFL. Viewers see Betts get tested for COVID-19, reveal his experience of racial abuse and its impact on his family, and how mentoring younger players gives him a sense of purpose.

Betts spent 13 weeks away from wife Anna Scullie and their five children, with no chance of them joining him on the Gold Coast.

“At first, we were told we’d only be away for four weeks,” he says. “But it turned out to be much longer. I don’t know how I would have coped had I known that from the onset.”

Usually camera-shy, Betts did think twice about how intimate the lens would get with his family.

“Anna and I are very private and protective of our family, and I did hesitate at first, but when I realised the documentary would be so much more, I thought ‘why not?’

“If the documentary gives people an idea of what it’s like to be in my life, what I deal with rocking up to the football field and what it’s like to be at home with kids running around, I want them to see that journey and to better understand my

Aboriginal culture and my family’s connection to it.”

Betts says wearing a beanie on a 30-degree day all in the name of filming did test his patience, but in hindsight it’s laughable now.

“That was tough, but apparently they got the better sound with a microphone there. I also had microphones strapped to my jersey – you just got used to it. The film crew

JA N E R O C CA

were around us 24/7, getting an insight they probably wouldn’t have if it wasn’t for the Hub and restrictions,” he says.

Born in Port Lincoln, South Australia, Betts moved at the age of three to the remote Western Australia town of Kalgoorlie with his mother after his parents split.

He says his love of football stems from a determined father — Eddie

“I really want to encourage young Aboriginal children to get an education …

That’s the most important thing in life, then footy will find you.”

Betts senior, and a grandfather, also named Eddie, both played football on the Eyre Peninsula — who wanted to ensure he followed in his footsteps.

“My dad was a good footballer and mum’s brothers were too. I remember dad coming to visit me in Kalgoorlie one Christmas, but got locked up in WA. He was in prison when I was aged eight to 11. I had started playing soccer in that time and when he got out, he looked at me and said, ‘Put down the soccer ball, son. It’s football onwards from here.’”

Growing up in Kalgoorlie wasn’t always easy for Betts, and he counts his blessings that a career in football set him on the right track.

“Living in Kalgoorlie with mum and 18 of my cousins what just how we lived back then,” he says.

“I barely had a bed to sleep on. I slept on the couch or on a mattress on the floor – every night was a battle to find somewhere to sleep, but we survived. I didn’t go to school. I couldn’t read or spell. I got drafted and given a footy contract that I couldn’t read. I didn’t know what I was signing.

“I really want to encourage young Aboriginal children to get an education,” says Betts, who has written two children’s books, My Kind and My People.

“That’s the most important thing in life, then footy will find you.”

The father of five (the youngest, Eddie jnr, is only a few months old) is at his most relaxed off the field. He describes Anna, who he married in 2015, as his rock.

“We’re the yin and yang.

She’s outspoken and confident, I’m quiet and shy. She is so encouraging and always reminding me my voice matters.” ● MAKING THEIR MARK \ Amazon Prime Video, from March 12.

ast year the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival was cancelled six days before it was due to kick off, courtesy of COVID, and was limited to hosting online events. This month, its creative team and Melburnians are hungrier than ever, with the festival taking on a new, local life.

the March edition, a substantial taster; we have the winter edition, which is the main course; and there will be a delicious and substantial sweet finish in the form of a regional festival in the spring.”

Despite 2021 tickets for the signature Bank of Melbourne World’s Longest Lunch going on sale just before the circuit-breaker lockdown, there’s been a huge appetite for attendance.

“One really encouraging thing was that a lot of MFWF-goers elected to hold onto their tickets, to leave their money with the restaurants over 2020.

But to give 2021 a bit of sparkle, we’ve added a new event: the World’s Longest Brunch,” says Nourse.

This sees Nathan Toleman, of the Mulberry Group, and Kate Reid, of Lune Croissanterie, serving three inventive dishes over a boozy brunch to an elongated table in Treasury Gardens. It’s happening the day before the Longest Lunch in the same spot, headed by chefs Stephanie Alexander, Jacques Reymond and Philippe Mouchel.

ritish fashion designer Mary Quant gave the Swinging ’60s a reason to do the twist – liberating women with a miniskirt hemline that shifted the focus from Paris couture to London style at the time. She tore away from the restrictive ’50s silhouette for something more radical that also made its way to Melbourne.

In an Australian exclusive, the Bendigo Art Gallery unveils Mary Quant: Fashion Revolutionary – a retrospective tracing her journey from 1955 to 1975 that also showed

at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

From Quant’s humble beginnings as a London art student to becoming a boutique owner on King’s Road to the face of her own fashion label, her sartorial footprint is still felt today.

More than 110 key garments are on show with accessories, photographs, magazines and film footage charting the revolution in lifestyles and the democratisation of fashion.

“The exhibition is about youth culture, fun, freedom of expression and challenging the establishment as

much as it is about fashion,” says curator Emma Busowsky Cox. The retrospective is centred on Quant’s voice (she is now aged 91): a woman who didn’t have time to wait for women’s liberation.

“Mary Quant had this unbelievable drive that came out of post-war Britain – a gloomy place. She ... gave the women of the time what they wanted – shorter hemlines for dancing with ease and to run for a bus,” says Busowsky Cox. Quant was one of the first designers to use PVC, and merged

stretch wool and cotton jersey for a flamboyant silhouette.

“The ’50s silhouette saw women wearing the same thing their mothers and grandmothers did, and suddenly there’s a release of that silhouette and clothing thanks to Mary Quant,” Busowsky Cox says.

Bendigo Art Gallery Director Jessica Bridgfoot saw the exhibition in London in 2019 and knew she wanted to bring it to regional Victoria. The gallery, known for its record-smashing Grace Kelly in 2012 and Balenciaga in 2019, this time shifted its focus from couture to the high street.

“This exhibition is a little out of the box compared to other collaborations that have been more about couture, glamour and transporting the audience to another time and place, but Mary Quant is historic and still referenced today,” Bridgfoot says.

“This is about a middle-class movement; and nostalgia for it is still very strong and clearly evident in the pre-sales.”

You’ll discover the evolution of the miniskirt via five dresses – from knee-length to mid-thigh and up,

while Quant’s use of wool and tweed found a place in her womenswear, too. And, of course, there’s an ode to the platform shoes of that era too.

In the mid-’60s, she branched into a make-up range [with that famous daisy logo] where cheekily-titled beauty products – like “starkers” – hit the shelves. It was the era of bohemian hangovers, where fashion and how you looked took precedence over everything else.

By the ’70s, Quant moved into homewares, designing wallpaper and bed linen – changing with the times and needs of her customer.

“Mary was really a standout,” Busowsky Cox says. “She pushed her manufacturers with colours in fabrics, which was radical for its time and gave women freedom, choice, something relatable and still talked about decades later.” ●

First impressions of this house belie the reality of what’s on offer, as the modest facade does little to indicate the roominess of the digs, and the al fresco advantages are hidden from prying eyes. A one-owner, 1980s build, it wears its brown-brick facade and raw-brick feature walls with retro pride. Four living areas plus a home office make for generous counterparts to the four-bedroom accommodation. Towards the front of the residence and glazed to a groovy atrium, the main bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and an en suite bathroom. The lounge, with fireplace, links up with the dining room via an arched cutaway. Reached through the rumpus room, the pool terrace, trusty barbecue and garden-swaddled pool encourage outdoor time. ● KAY KEIGHERY
