Aussie journalist and TV star Sam Armytage appears unrecognisable in a resurfaced clip. A video has emerged of a baby-faced Armytage presenting WIN news in the ’90s in Canberra. “You were part of the Nine family going way back to the early ’60s, have a look at this,” Today host Karl Stefanovic joked on Monday morning, earning chuckles from Armytage and Today co-host Sarah Abo.
A younger Armytage appears on the screen with a white blazer and bob cut, with Armytage laughing at the footage. Abo told Armytage “you haven’t changed at all!” “Oh darling, thank you. Listen to that little high-pitched voice — I was a baby,” Armytage replied.
Armytage appeared on the program to discuss the launch of Nine’s new TV show The Golden Bachelor. The TV star will host the show, with the announcement coming just months after she left the Seven Network. Armytage, who previously worked on Sunrise, had been hosting Farmer Wants A Wife.
The new show is slated to air in 2025, with Armytage explaining it’s a follow on from The Bachelor Aussies are already familiar with but with a focus on those in their 50s and 60s. “This is bringing it forward to the golden ages, as we like to call it. We’re all heading towards some of this faster than others,” Armytage joked.
“What we’re looking for here is a Golden Bachelor, most likely in his 60s, and some ladies who will be in their 50s or 60s ...
because we’re casting now. “This is for people who are looking for love again,.
