Richo is a weekly Australian television news and commentary program, broadcast on Sky News Live. Hosted by Graham Richardson, it premiered on 23 February 2011, and airs each Wednesday night at 8pm (originally 7:30pm) AEST.[1]
The series focuses on mainly political topics, featuring interviews and panel discussions, but also includes segments related to business and sport.[2] Richardson described the format as "a mix of light-hearted commentary but with all the facts."[3]
The program spawned a spin-off titled Richo + Jones, which premiered in February 2014, in which Richardson co-hosts with Alan Jones.[4]
Guest hosts
Due to a number of Richardson's health issues, Richo has been guest hosted by a number of other Sky News presenters.[5] From April 2016, the program was put on hiatus and temporarily replaced with new format Beattie + Reith due to Richardson being on medical leave from Sky News while undergoing major surgery.[6][7]
