60 Minutes Australia: Endless Love (2017)

Australians used to balance a healthy scepticism for our politicians with a begrudging respect. But now, if you believe the polls, politicians are about as popular as, well, journalists. Malcolm Turnbull's not a bad bloke but it seems we can't wait to get rid of him, just like we ditched Tony Abbott and Rudd and Gillard. Without giving any of them much of a chance to be great. Maybe aspiring PMs need to visit the master. Would you believe it is 25 years since Bob Hawke held the top job. Back then we loved him in spite of, or maybe because of, his imperfections, including that he left his wife Hazel for another woman. As you'll see, today Bob is more popular than ever, and still wonderfully in love with Blanche.
