More subtle changes in the re-launch of Rove emerged this past week.

One is the comedian Dave Hughes, previously from The Glass House, will be given a regular guest spots on the show.

Carrie Bickmore, who has previously read news parody segments is expected to be elevated to the show’s lead female. Corrine Grant, also of The Glass House, left the Rove team in 2005, effectively leaving an opening for a new girl.

As part of the repackaging the show will now simply be called Rove instead of Rove Live.

It will also sport a new-look, now being shot in Global TV’s South Melbourne Studio (the same studio currently used for Dancing with the Stars, Deal or No Deal and Australia’s Got Talent). The old Nunawading studio (aka Wentworth Detenction Centre) will no longer house the show.

It will also mean a shorter trip for visiting celebrities out to the suburbs!

  1. I do know Corrine has been looking to expand her opportunities into acting roles, plus of course she was busy with Glass House and radio commitments.

    Thanks for the nice comments, Murray. It means a lot to know it’s appreciated, especially at this early stage!

  2. I think ROVE on a Sunday night will work much better, light entertainment to finish off the weekend is just what TV is missing atm!!

    I’ve always wanted to know why Corrine left the show, do you know??

    P.S: LOVE this site, its like my bible now when on the internet!!
