| What Was On Sbs Last Night Sydney |
Primetime Picks: From Intrigue to Insight
The Night We Solved the Van Gogh Case (Maybe): Ever wondered if Vincent van Gogh really cut off his own ear in a fit of artistic angst? Well, SBS took us on a thrilling documentary adventure to explore the latest theories. Did it involve a jealous lover and a particularly sharp butter knife? You'll have to rewatch (or hope it hits SBS On Demand) to find out!
Who Do You Think You Are? Goes Global: This beloved program ventured beyond Blighty last night, following the fascinating family history of an Australian sporting legend (we won't spoil the surprise!). Turns out, their great-great-great-grandfather might have been a pirate with a penchant for yodeling sea shanties. True story (maybe).
Tip: Read at your own pace, not too fast.
Insight: Is Honesty Always the Best Policy? We all know that white lie you told your significant other about how "amazing" those questionable curtains they picked looked. But is honesty truly the best policy? SBS's resident philosophers tackled this age-old question with the help of some very awkward celebrity anecdotes (think Gwyneth Paltrow and jade eggs... you've been warned).
Late Night Nonsense: Because Why Sleep When There's SBS?
Dateline: The Mob Goes to Therapy? Forget whacking knees and concrete shoes, apparently the latest trend in organized crime is group therapy sessions. SBS's intrepid investigative team infiltrated a session (disguised as very unconvincing mimes, of course) to bring you the hilarious lowdown.
Tip: A slow skim is better than a rushed read.
Living Black: Laughter is the Best Medicine (Especially After That Mob Story): After the darkness of Dateline, SBS served up a healthy dose of Indigenous comedy with Living Black. Side effects may include uncontrollable laughter, a newfound appreciation for deadly boomerangs, and the urge to learn some basic Gamilaraay greetings (because who doesn't want to impress their friends with "Good morning" in a cool Indigenous language?).
