Name: Today Tonight
Time: 10:30 PM
Date: Mon Oct 2
Duration: 30 min
Channel: SCTV Hobart
Description: Today Tonight will have you convinced that around every corner lurks a con-man, everyone not working is a bludger and that they have their electronic finger on the pulse of society's beliefs and attitudes. Sure to depress and delude with too much exposure.



Interesting description! I'm sure that isn't an official description from the Seven Network!

Note: Due to DST in Tas, TT is on later at night here for a few weeks. I'm not sure if the description would be the same for people with TT at the usual time.

The ICE guide descriptions are generated by ICE, themselves. Copyright restrictions stop them from using the available descriptions from Seven etc.

In turn, it gives you some laughs (especially with the news/public affairs/current affairs type programs).

Does the ICE guide have proper descriptions for tv series shows and movies?

In general I have found the descriptions for shows and movies to be better than the official descriptions from the networks. It's only the news and current affairs shows that they use some 'poetic licence'. But I love that! The description for Ten News at Five is priceless!

Ironically Ten News at Five is seen on TDT in Tasmania at 6 o'clock at the moment...
