Brooke Satchwell is well qualified for her new co-hosting role, write
Darren Devlyn and Erin McWhirter

The memory is haunting - indelibly etched in the memory of actor Brooke Satchwell.
  In a textbook cased of being in the wrong place at the wrong time , Satchwell felt her time was up when terrorists stormed the lobby of Mumbai's Taj Mahal Hotel last November.

  A terrified Satchwell, who'd been in Mumbai working on a travel documentary with boyfriend David Gross, had met workmates at the Taj restaurant for dinner.
  Late in the evening she walked outside for a cigarette, visiting a restroom near the lobby after re-entering the hotel.
  It was then that the jolting, terrifying sound of machine-gun fire rang out.
   People began pushing into toilet cubicles, locking themselves in. Convinced this would prove a futile attempt at saving themselves should the terrorists burst in, Satchwell, 28, encouraged them to come out.
  All were to cram into a closet, about 2m by 50cm. They closed the doors and hoped for the best.
  Forty-five minutes latter, they were coaxed from the closet by hotel staff.

 SATCHWELL STILL HAUNTED BY MUMBAI (20/06/2009)
    NEWS ARTICLE   VIEW COMMENTS (2)   ADD COMMENTS
SEVEN months after being trapped in a terrorist attack, actor Brooke Satchwell is still haunted by the ordeal.


Satchwell, who will co-narrate a Channel 9 series about Aussies who've endured trauma in their travels, says a bump in the night is enough to remind her of the November attacks in Mumbai, which claimed 173 lives.


Satchwell, who had been in Mumbai shooting a travel documentary with partner David Gross, says memories of the night came flooding back on a recent trip to the Gold Coast hinterland.


'We were staying in this place up in the mountains, which was beautiful, but avocados would drop on the tin roof and scare the living daylights out of us,' Satchwell said.


'I don't think you can place a value on having someone who understands the experience. I mean, how do you communicate that?' Satchwell, 28, had felt her time was up when terrorists stormed the lobby of the city's Taj Mahal Hotel.


She and other guests hid in a tiny closet as machinegun fire echoed through the hotel lobby. Satchwell was forced to climb over corpses to escape the carnage.


'It was a terrifying moment,' she said.


'You look around, and when other people start to go into panic, you go into survival mode.'


Her experience, and sense of curiosity, attracted Satchwell to the role of co-narrator on Trouble in Paradise  ... READ FULL ARTICLE

 TROUBLE IN PARADISE (17/06/2009)
    NEWS ARTICLE   VIEW COMMENTS (2)   ADD COMMENTS

Brooke Satchwell will co-narrate Channel 9's new docu-drama series Trouble in Paradise with 60 Minutes reporter Liam Bartlett..

Trouble in Paradise tells the stories of Australian travellers who have been subjected to terrifying experiences while on holidays in different parts of the world before escaping with their lives.
 
These are ordinary people, simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. What makes this series so enthralling is that their nightmares could happen to anyone.
 
Each one-hour episode contains two compelling stories told first-hand through interviews with the travellers and re-enactments to provide as much realistic detail as possible.
 
The production team for the series travelled back to exact locations in countries all over the world to recreate harrowing ordeals such as murder in Mexico, kidnappings in Peru, suicide bombers in China, police corruption in Poland and terror in a Thai jail, to name just a few.
 
Actress Brooke Satchwell, who experienced her own holiday hell when terrorists attacked the hotel she was staying at in the Indian city of Mumbai last year.
 
Episode one begins with what was supposed to be the surfing trip of a lifetime for Peter “Buzz” Buswell and Warren “Ed” Poulter, two Aussie surfers from Sydney’s northern beaches. But their holiday in Mexico turns into a nightmare when their camp by the beach is stormed by armed police, the Federales. Dragged away, held at gunpoint and beaten, they witness the cold-blooded murder of a Mexican man and are convinced they are about to be shot too.
 
Also in episode one, a sightseeing tour of China turns to terror when a suicide bomber holds a group of Australians hostage. Ten Australian women are on a travel agents’ familiarisation tour of the city of Xian when a Chinese man steps onto their bus with a bomb strapped to his chest, taking all onboard hostage. As the bomber waves the detonator trigger in the faces of the terrified passengers, making the demands he has been planning for the past three years, any attempt to negotiate with him could end in disaster.
 
Trouble in Paradise, a riveting new series about the hidden dangers that can lurk in any foreign trip, premieres Thursday, June 25 at 8.30pm on Nine.

 YOUTH SPEAK OUT ON CLIMATE CHANGE GOALS (07/06/2009)
    NEWS ARTICLE   VIEW COMMENTS (2)   ADD COMMENTS

Ben Cubby, Environment Reporter

BROOKE SATCHWELL'S life is a staple of glossy magazines but in her own time the actor has been ploughing through the Garnaut report - the weighty, 600-page tome outlining the economic impact of climate change on Australia.

'I was forewarned it was going to be a very dry read but it's not, actually, it's very interesting,' she said.

Along with other prominent young Australians, including swimmer Ian Thorpe, Satchwell is participating in Power Shift, the biggest climate-change conference for young people yet seen in Australia.

Thousands of people from around the country and overseas, most of them aged under 25, will converge in Sydney next month to discuss climate change, 'green jobs' and greenhouse gas cuts.

The event is drawing people from a range of backgrounds, from Greenpeace to the Liberal Party, with strong rural representation.

Satchwell said young people often felt left out of discussions on climate change, even though they were more likely than the current political leaders to see the unfolding effects of a warmer, drier planet.

'It's also a complex, confusing area … so it's going to be about educating and empowering people,' Satchwell said. 'I'm not an expert on climate change, but I'm trying to put my money where my mouth is and get an understanding of the issues.'

The event was organised by the Australian Youth Climate Coalition, which has the goal of shifting the national debate on climate change towards more ambitious greenhouse gas cuts and less reliance on burning coal for electricity.

'The people who are being listened to in the climate change debate the most are the industry lobbyists,' the group's co-director, Anna Rose, said. 'It's called 'Power Shift' because we want to rework the way power is being exercised in Australia.' The conference will take place at the University of Western Sydney's Parramatta campus from July 11 to 13.
