Sunday Night: Mar 30

On Sunday Night this weekend, the first report from former Nine reporter Denham Hitchcock, a locally-produced story from Mike Willesee and an interview with Jamie Oliver.

Fireworks
Sunday Night takes you to the most dangerous and amazing firework spectacular in the world. Once a year in a small Mexican town, for nine crazy pyromanic days, the greatest fireworks celebration on the planet can be seen from space. This year, the injury toll from this must-be-seen-to-be-believed event was 499 plus one Australian – new Sunday Night reporter Denham Hitchcock, who needed hospital treatment on his first assignment.

Superhero Brother
A frazzled mum struggles to juggle her three excited kids outside dance class while picking up her daughter. Distracted for a moment, her four year old son Kya runs off towards the road. His brother Calyn, seven, takes off after him. Kya bursts between two parked cars and straight into the path of a 4WD with bull bars mounted on the front. The car is travelling within the speed limit, around 60km/h, and there is nothing the driver can do to avoid hitting the little boy. He slams his foot on the brakes and the screeching tyres alert everyone. What happens next has changed the lives of so many people present that day – and is one of the most courageous and inspiring stories Mike Willesee has ever reported.

Naked Truth About Jamie Oliver
The world’s most popular and controversial chef is in Australia to cook up a storm – and he’s asked Sunday Night to help him stir things up. Join Rahni Sadler on the road with Jamie Oliver. The man with the boyish charms, who took on the British government and succeeded in overhauling stodgy school dinners, is returning here to persuade Aussies to change their supermarket shopping habits. What he has to say, and what he wants us all to do, will get everyone talking.

Sunday, March 30 on Channel Seven at 8pm.
