conic journalist Mike Willesee marks his return to television on Sunday Night with an exclusive one-on-one interview with Prime Minister Julia Gillard. In a revealing and personal insight into an embattled PM and a woman under pressure, Gillard opens up to Willesee about a potential leadership challenge from Kevin Rudd as well as the role of her office in igniting the tent embassy riots. She also reflects on her family and why she is prone to hide her emotions. A doyen of public affairs broadcasting and an inductee into the Logies Hall of Fame, Willesee joins Seven’s flagship Sunday Night ahead of the 2012 series return this week. Also featuring this Sunday, award-winning reporter Ross Coulthart goes behind the scenes to discover the secrets of the hit series, Downton Abbey. With $1.5 million spent on each episode, it is also one of the most expensive. Coulthart meets star actress Joanne Froggart and is given a private tour of the famous Highclere Castle estate by the real lady of the manor, Lady Carnarvon. Viewers will also enjoy a sneak peek from the new season ahead. And in a rare treat, Sunday Night brings audiences the only Australian interview with Sir Paul McCartney ahead of the release of his new album. The greatest living songwriter of the modern age, McCartney talks about his love for Australia and his family connection to this country – as well as his string of wives, Beatlemania, the Beatles’ break-up, and the inspiration behind his latest songs.
