The popular pair will co-host Monday’s Experts, a sports entertainment panel show that is taking the place of Q+A.
ABC sports broadcaster Catherine Murphy jokes that she’s a “girl addicted to sport” and sometimes wonders “if I have any personality left, I watch so much sport”.
The ABC will be counting on Murphy and Armstrong’s chemistry – they are both incredibly engaging on-air personalities – to rescue Monday nights, with the show part of a refreshed line-up, with season two of Marc Fennell’sis scheduled to return on August 12, with the political panel show now running in seasons and aligned with parliamentary sitting weeks, its longer-term future is less certain.
Whether the show is a success or not – although if it includes Murphy’s dream guests of either Matildas star Mary Fowler or one of tennis’s big three it will be pretty good – it’s still a far cry from Murphy’s first on-air job at RTE: covering competitive rock throwing.
