Amanda Duthie, Head of ABC TV Arts, Entertainment and Comedy, said she was delighted to have Greg in the team.
“I am thrilled Greg is joining ABC TV fresh from Channel 31 – a hothouse of ideas, a diverse slate of programs and a source of fab talent” she said.
Greg Dee said “Australia has a dazzling array of talented performers, writers, producers and directors. ABC TV has always been the home of great Australian arts, comedy and entertainment and I am excited to be part of the team that supports this creative community.”
