FILMING LIVE FROM THE NIAGARA PARKWAY 

After months of planning, Niagara Falls Tourism and the Niagara Parks welcomed  the 25 crew and four news anchors on Wednesday, September 17th, 2015 to the freshly set stage overlooking the amazing and world famous waterfalls. Located on the Niagara Parkway and situated just a few hundred feet from the Hornblower Ticket Plaza, morning Co Hosts, Samantha Armytage, David Koch, Sports Presenter, Mark Baretta and News Presenter, Natalie Barr conducted their morning show live from 4pm to 7pm which is 6am to 9am Australian time. Among the morning broadcast the news anchors interviewed world renowned ‘Kiss By A Rose’ singer, Seal through a video call back to Australia.  Earlier in the day, the hosts toured a number of Niagara Falls attractions including the Niagara Helicopter, and our famous boat tour to the Falls. The hosts also had a chance to taste some true Canadian flavours through a deliciously sweet and savory bacon and maple syrup donut.

THE CAST AND CREW TAKE ON THE FALLS 

With a tight time schedule to follow the morning co hosts and crew made it to Hornblower Niagara Cruises after soaring the skies with the Niagara Helicopters. At 1:00pm  just a short 2.5 hours from going live from Niagara Falls, Canada the cast and crew were able to fit in a 20-minute daytime ‘Voyage to the Falls’ boat tour and film the #inthemist experience from aboard 360-degree unobstructed viewing platform. As boat tour guests looked towards the Falls they saw ‘Kochie’ (David Koch) and ‘Sam’ (Samantha Armytage) take on the powerful mist and thundering Falls all the while trying to keep their composure as the boat changed positioning in front of the Canadian Horseshoe Falls.
