Jono Coleman Suspended from Sunrise

2 August 2007 · News

Jonathan Coleman has been suspended by Seven’s Sunrise program after revealing the ending of the final Harry Potter book.

Coleman’s attempted joke caused angry viewers to contact the station in droves via email and phone calls.

Stumbling to recover, he said: “I didn’t want to ruin it. I didn’t want the kids to be upset, anyway I’ll be going now,”

Koch replied: “And you may not be coming back.”

Coleman continued the cringe worthy behaviour by yelling backstage: “The kids would be in school by now.”

The time was 7.45am (ASET).

Following a flood of emails from readers, executive producer Adam Boland said he was forced to suspend him immediately.

Viewers who want him back can ring 190 255 7770 (just like Big Brother!).
