Production and Broadcast Schedule
The show is filmed at Global Television Studios in Nunawading (a suburb in the outskirts of Melbourne) which are rented by ATV-10 for the first three seasons in series 1-3 in 2006 & 2007.
Recording of a single episode is done between 7:30pm and 10:30pm. Each segment is recorded "as if live", but with longer breaks between acts for set changes and costuming. Some retakes are done after the initial recording is done to correct any errors made by the hosts during the initial recording, or to cover sounds picked up from outside the studio. The guest scenarios are recorded non-stop, and are longer than what will be seen on TV.
