Facing our Threats, Targeting Australia, Where there's a Will
Facing our Threats
As our top spy, ASIO boss Mike Burgess prefers to do his work away from the public gaze. But so concerned has he become about the increasing threats to Australia's security that he has a message he wants all Australians to see and hear. Speaking to Nick McKenzie, Burgess says now is the most dangerous time our country has experienced in the last 50 years. He warns our enemies are everywhere, and unless we all start taking the nation's security seriously, we're in for a world of pain.

Targeting Australia
The plot was as sophisticated as it was evil. ISIS terrorists had decided to target Australia. It was eight years ago and their nefarious ambition was to inflict maximum fear and loss of life by planting a bomb on a packed passenger plane and detonating it over New South Wales. If they'd succeeded, hundreds of people in the air, and probably more on the ground, would have been killed. On 60 Minutes, Amelia Adams investigates just how close their plan came to succeeding, and frighteningly, why Australians still need to be alarmed. Speaking from a death-row prison cell in Iraq, the terrorist mastermind of the plot issues a chilling warning that ISIS remains a deadly threat and is inspiring a new generation of radicalised zealots, ready to once again reign terror on the west.

Where there's a Will
Forget the palaces, the priceless jewels and all those forever-fussing servants. Being the King is not an easy job. In the two and a half years Charles the Third has been monarch, royal watchers say he's been impressive, especially considering he has been fighting cancer for much of that time. But although the thought is dreaded, King Charles' illness is a reality check for the Firm, as the royal family is known. It means there is added impetus to ensure Prince William, 42, is match-fit for a possible call-up to the top job. So how would he wear the crown? In London, Dimity Clancey speaks with some of the Prince of Wales' closest confidants to find out if he is really ready to reign.
