In the federal arena, the Labor Green relationship is over and heading for the divorce courts – but here in the ACT, the two parties carry on in a marriage of convenience. So how do they reconcile their policy and philosophical differences?

Shane Rattenbury and Andrew Barr both talk candidly about the sometimes testing relationship. Reporter Adam Shirley.

2. Kelly at Glenrowan

Ned Kelly wanted to kill as many police as possible at Glenrowan. He also gave up several opportunities to escape in pursuit of that goal – according to a new book by Canberra author Ian Shaw.

3. FAT Winner
