Here Isn't The News is a television program in Georgeland. Loosely based on the British show Have I Got News For You, Here Isn't the News is a weekly panel show where news topics are discussed and various 'games' played, between two teams of two guests each. While points are awarded, there is little value to them, and they are awarded on an arbitrary basis. The topical discussion is usually secondary to the humour and banter between guests and host. The program is broadcast weekly, airing at 8:30 pm on Friday nights. The program is broadcast by GBC Television. The host of the program is former newsreader Julia Moffatt, who reads her lines (usually from an autocue) with a deadpan delivery that has been praised by viewers. Much of Moffatt's material contains sexual innuendo and in-jokes rel

| - Here Isn't The News is a television program in Georgeland. Loosely based on the British show Have I Got News For You, Here Isn't the News is a weekly panel show where news topics are discussed and various 'games' played, between two teams of two guests each. While points are awarded, there is little value to them, and they are awarded on an arbitrary basis. The topical discussion is usually secondary to the humour and banter between guests and host. The program is broadcast weekly, airing at 8:30 pm on Friday nights. The program is broadcast by GBC Television. The host of the program is former newsreader Julia Moffatt, who reads her lines (usually from an autocue) with a deadpan delivery that has been praised by viewers. Much of Moffatt's material contains sexual innuendo and in-jokes relating to her status as an intellectual sex symbol. Moffatt also frequently makes ad-lib comments. Moffatt has hosted the show since its third series in 2008 - prior to this, the program was anchored by comedian Robin Edmonds, who opted not to participate beyond 2007. Comedian Neil Hobbes and journalist Kevin Teal are the team captains. Each team features its captain plus one (occasionally more) guest, usually a comedian or entertainer but frequently a politician, journalist or newsmaker. Image:HITNtitle.JPG
