REWIND TO 2009 when Australian pop group Human Nature were hitting Las Vegas and taking on the American market. They were discovered 18 years ago through a development program, called Talent Development Project, that selects and trains public school students to turn them into showbiz stars. Only 10 a year graduate from this gruelling program - meet the 2009 talent who were aiming for the stars, including 16-year-old singer Angel Tupai and a rock band from country NSW.

For over forty years, 60 Minutes have been telling Australians the world’s greatest stories. Tales that changed history, our nation and our lives. Reporters Liz Hayes, Tom Steinfort, Tara Brown, Nick McKenzie and Amelia Adams look past the headlines because there is always a bigger picture. Sundays are for 60 Minutes.
