Australia correspondent Karen Middleton joins Susie to talk about charges laid against a 43-year-old man following threats made on a Malaysian Airlines flight from Sydney on Monday, which caused several hours delay after the plane turned back just an hour into its flight.

Qantas has weighed into the national debate on the Indigenous Voice to Parliament - unveiling new livery with a big 'Yes23'.

The nation has gone bonkers for the Matildas ahead of today's semi-final and was the "end" of Neighbours just a giant publicity stunt?
