A look inside the former NBN Television gallery at Mosbri Crescent, photo taken in 2014 during a set of storms which left Newcastle and Sydney homes without power.
As you can see via the auto cue system on screen the script confirms this, I can recall having my first jot coffee in two days here at NBN Studios.
