Sunday Night is touting a world exclusive interview with Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham of Fleetwood Mac as they confide in what tore them apart.
Mankind’s Rarest Disease
Meet a quite extraordinary little boy, who holds the cure to some of the world’s most common diseases. Zach was born on Australia Day – a beautiful smiling baby. The doctors gave him a clean bill of health, and for 18 months his parents thought everything was normal. But as they would discover, little Zach has perhaps the rarest disease known to man – a genetic condition called Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva, or FOP. There are less than 800 known sufferers worldwide. As he ages, the soft tissue Zach’s body is slowly morphing into a second skeleton. His muscles are turning to bone. Eventually, he will be frozen as stiff as a statue. He’s turning into a ‘human mannequin’. But Zach’s family haven’t given up hope. We speak to an expert who says once they identify what went wrong in little Zach’s body, they will have a cure to a range of bone diseases, such as osteoporosis, and eventually even be able to grow new limbs for amputees.
Exclusive: The Big Mac
Reporter Rahni Sadler goes behind the scenes with super group Fleetwood Mac for a world exclusive as she discovers the latest twist in one of rock rolls greatest love stories. Join Sunday Night to find out not only what tore Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham apart, but what has now brought them back together again after 36 years of bitterness. We’ll also reveal how cocaine changed Stevie’s voice and how a love affair in Australia almost destroyed the band.
Exclusive: P!nk The September Issue
She’s the record-breaking rock star casting a spell over Australia. Pink is in the middle of the biggest tour ever to hit our shores: 46 arena shows at last count, each one an incredible two-hour spectacular that sees her fly high over audiences heads with her trademark aerial acrobatic feats. We bring Pink back down to earth with this exclusive behind-the-scenes look at a day in the pop star’s life. Sunday Night’s cameras are there as Marie Claire editor Jackie Frank preps Pink to appear on the cover of their most important magazine of the year: the September issue. We’re on set as the pair put together a stunning cover-worthy look, and sit down for a frank, funny discussion. Always outspoken, Pink shares her views on motherhood, family, the music industry and her enduring love affair with Australia.
8pm Sunday, August 11 on Seven.

Gee .. Stevie Nicks in 2011 and recycled in 2013.. does anyone under 30 even know who she is? Oh that’s right they are watching AGT or XFactor and Pink repeated c’mon? .. maybe Sunday Night should rethink the tags ‘Australian’ and “Current” and “Public” and “Affairs”.. oh and “6:30”
Sunday Night interviews = yet another case of selling an upcoming tour by visiting artist. Think I will have to blog on this trend soon.
Aha! Seven pulls X Factor and brings back Sunday Night up against Australia’s Got Talent. Does Simon Cowell read this site?
Wrong. 8pm.
To be fair where is the story on 60 Minutes (sorry it is now 70 minutes)?
Would you rather I make it up or wait for the press release? I’m good with either, thx.
P!nk? Again?!
