CHANNEL 7 will kick start the new ratings year with its rocking biopic, INXS Never Tear Us Apart next Sunday night, we can exclusively reveal.
After the ritual pre-ratings dance with TV rival Nine over programming plans, Seven's director of production Brad Lyons confirmed the hotly-anticipated miniseries will air at 8.30pm over the next two blockbuster Sunday nights.
Lyons described the secrecy surrounding this year's scheduling as "more intense than ever'' but was confident the broad appeal of the INXS telemovie - and its script surprises - would ensure a strong ratings return.
"The appeal of INXS, apart from loving the music and being a fan myself, is ... when you drill down into it ... it's a really good underdog story. These guys started in a garage and really did take on the world.
I've SO been waiting for this show to start!

Yes, looking forward to INXS, Downtown et al but not so sure about the Shapelle Corby story.
Passed the TV as the Aussies took the field in the cricket. What's with the Red Carpet? Very theatrical, I don't think!

Some of those pommy cricketers should wear control briefs.
Hmmm might take up watching cricket after all...

They have obviously bowled at least one maiden over.
