About this episode

The episode reveals a secret about Nicole Kidman's surprise appearance at a film screening and discusses Amelia Dimoldenberg's departure from her show.

For over a week we were sitting on the biggest secret of the year. Nicole Kidman quietly jetted into Sydney for barely one night to surprise fans at a Practical Magic Two screening, and The Spill was one of a tiny handful let into the room. Code name: Project Ibiza. We're finally allowed to tell you everything. But getting there was its own witchy disaster. Think a cursed eleventh-hour breakout, blocked-off streets, and a frantic sprint through a footy crowd in the wrong shoes, all to make it up three flights of stairs to a very ethereal, and very emotional Nicole. We're also unpacking the end of an era: after 12 years, Amelia Dimoldenberg is calling time on Chicken Shop Date. What's next for her, why now, and the long-running rumour that quietly undercuts the show's whole single-girl premise.
