Where Are They Now is a television show that airs on Australia's Seven Network. It is hosted by Melissa Doyle and David Koch, the main presenters of Seven's breakfast television program Sunrise.
[edit] Premise
The program looks back at particular periods in recent history with a specific slant towards major events and popular culture, with a focus on Australian life at the time. Along with edited segments, each show features studio interviews with noted figures and celebrities who have seemingly ended their 15 minutes of fame and gone into obscurity, leading the presenters to ask them the question, "where are they now?". Cast reunions (such as bringing together the original Fletcher family from the soap opera Home and Away) are also common segments on the show.
[edit] History
Seemingly a revival of a previous show of the same name, then hosted by Peter Luck in the late 90s, the revamped Where Are They Now debuted on Sunday night at 6:30pm in February 2006 to high ratings. The show went on hiatus from June to early August 2006 to make way for the celebrity singing competition It Takes Two, but returned to the same time slot after the finale of that series.
Where Are They Now returned for a second series in May 2007.
