State Focus is a weekly catch up on the issues at the heartland of regional Australia and airs every Sunday at 8.30am on the Southern Cross Ten network.
State Focus is regional Australia’s most informative local news and current affairs show, tailor-made for Southern Cross’ viewing audience.
Not your usual clichéd news show, State Focus is a mix of chat and issues. Every week, it gets to the heart of matters which affect people’s day-to-day lives. We talk to the people making a difference, the famous faces passing through, the local heroes who deserve more attention than they get and we tackle the issues that need talking about, from Cairns to Warrnambool.
Just a sample of the guests who have graced our studios in the past three years include:
- Andrew Denton
- General Peter Cosgrove
- Federal Opposition leader Kim Beazley
- Tina Arena
- Olympic gold medalist Petria Thomas
- Rock star turned Senator Peter Garrett
- Rove McManus
- Monty Python legend Michael Palin
- Jack Thompson
- Wallaby star Matt Gitteau
All shared a story of their times and experiences living in a regional centre.
