Australia's esteemed discussion forum for taboo topics, Insight, and its stablemate, the award-winning international current affairs series Dateline, will return to SBS and SBS On Demand on Tuesday 4 March from 8:30pm AEDT.
In the wake of SBS being named the most trusted news brand in Australia last year1, 2025 will see Insight continue to deliver captivating and leading-edge conversations around deeply personal, sensitive, and often divisive topics, while Dateline will explore the global trends, people and stories shaping our increasingly connected world.
In an era of outrage, Insight provides a unique space for people to share opposing views on the toughest and most sensitive issues facing Australians. Hosted by Kumi Taguchi, Insight returns on Tuesday 4 March at 8:30pm, and will continue to investigate a variety of bold topics this season.
Insight's 2025 season premiere, Your Body, Your Choice, will take a deep dive into how much autonomy we have over our bodies. Often the issues are highly emotive, with some states pushing to repeal abortion rights, mandatory vaccinations continuing to vex, and the continued drive to make Voluntary Assisted Dying more inclusive, So where is the middle ground?
Insightful, Insight'sweekly podcast, also hosted by Kumi Taguchi, returns in April for a second season. Featuring eight new episodes, Insightful sees Kumi in conversation with previous Insight guests as they unpack their compelling and deeply personal backstories.
Australia's longest-running international current affairs show Dateline returns on Tuesday 4 March at 9:30pm. Building on its Walkley Award-winning 40th season, viewers can look forward to a series of compelling new investigations into global issues. This year's dynamic lineup features powerful stories from Egypt, El Salvador, Lebanon, Singapore, Sweden, Taiwan, the U.S. and beyond, offering fresh perspectives on the forces shaping our world.
In an Australian first, Dateline's 2025 season premiere will see celebrated chef, presenter, and former lawyer Adam Liaw (The Cook Up with Adam Liaw) take an unprecedented look inside Singapore's Changi Prison - one of the world's most notorious correctional facilities.
Gaining rare access to a maximum-security wing, Liaw examines how the facility's harsh conditions and strict disciplinary measures contribute to its remarkably low 22% recidivism rate. Featuring interviews with Changi inmates, prison staff and activists, the episode delves into the ethics of Singapore's criminal justice system and the implementation of the death penalty for non-violent crimes, like drug possession.
SBS Director of News and Current Affairs, Mandi Wicks, said: Named the most trusted news brand in Australia last year, SBS is committed to the highest standards when it comes to integrity, inclusivity, and quality journalism that resonates with audiences nationwide.
Insight is a unique program which provides a forum to navigate layered and nuanced topics with respect and inclusivity. Building on its success in 2024, SBS is proud to see the return of Insightful: The Podcast, for a second season, delving deeper into some of the most extraordinary and surprising first-person stories.
Dateline is an award-winning international documentary series. In 2024, Dateline marked its 40th year on air as Australia's longest-running international current affairs program. Each week Dateline scours the globe to bring viewers special characters and a world of daring stories.

Episode 1 Synopsis
Your Body, Your Choice - Tuesday 4 March at 8:30pm AEDT on SBS and SBS On Demand
Last year there was a push in some states to roll back hard-won abortion rights. While Voluntary Assisted Dying is now legal across Australia there is a move to make the process accessible to people with dementia, which is predicted to become Australia's leading cause of death.
The issue of mandatory vaccinations continues to vex. We don't seem to be able to reach a middle ground with emotions high on both sides of each of these issues. Insight delves into how much autonomy we have over our own bodies and looks at why politicians and others are so comfortable restricting an individual's freedom of choice.
Episode 2 Synopsis
