Maybe Bert just wants to retire and spend some time with his beloved Patty and family. He is of an age where he is probably thinking of at least winding down a bit. He must have very early mornings 5 days a week and that would be a killer. I wish him all the best anyway, he deserves it.  |

Graceful exit and retirement I hope. What they say publicly is often different than
what happens behind closed 'negotiating' doors. Even a job well done comes to an end sooner or later.
*just had a flashback to the time he was asked to host some awards night and he wanted a large sum of money. He did not get it BTW. *

The Today Show reported this morning that he has officially joined Channel Nine.
Probably makes sense - it's fitting that he ends with Nine I think... Although Ten was good to him, they never really made good use of Bert in primetime.
I wonder what vehicle they have lined up for him? Obviously the Logies... and of course there's that vital 5.30pm slot. Wasn't there a love-match game show in the works? |

Sam will probably use Bert to anchor all of those nostalgia specials and counting down specials, which are rating their pants off - it's the hottest genre on TV at the moment both here and in the UK.
Plus, Nine want to re-establish themselves in 2006 by emphasising their star system again, and playing up the 50 years of TV. I'm betting Bert will be in the centre of that campaign. |

On the positive side Polaris if there's more Bert there'll be less Eddie Everywhere
Or will there?
Maybe they'll do a double act for all those shows Rockchick is talkin' ' bout.
Ok by me ... More time for reading books or walking in the open air or ....um....
.....watching paint dry |
