Everyone is demanding a season 3 of newsreader but have we considered what fucked up state Dale would be in after a timeskip? Do you think as his career becomes the only thing real to Dale he would seek out another relationship with a woman(maybe she’s aware), not out of desire like Helen, but to premeditatedly cover himself because he knows there are rumours out there? Seeing hate about Dale breaks my heart because all the alienation between him and those he cares about isn’t just caused by him but the pressure of the bigoted society of the time.
Actually, I would think his deal at the end of the season already hints at that, yes.
I mean, what other... "events" and details she could write about would he be able to provide? In the Sun's gossip section? So yes, I expect a (trophy) wife and maybe kids even. At least... for a while. And, of course, the career.
And I don't get hate on him, tbh (and not just because I like Sam btw). I also haven't seen much of it, but then I didn't go and look because... yeah. I expected it, tbh.
Dale is... almost too naïve, too head-driven. The traumatic experience with his school friend has driven all other motivations out of him, what's left is his feelings and needs (which he cannot fully suppress, obviously) and the ambition. He loves Helen, and he wants to keep her safe at any cost - ill-advised actions included.
And I must say that it hurt terribly to see them break apart then, Anna said in the podcast that the infidelity (the kiss) from s1 still influenced Helen, and... that's so terrible in a way, that she is still so insecure about it all at that point (and we already see hints of that in the hotel room) - but also that it whiplashes right back, because ill-advised proposal(s) or not... he meant it?! Twice.
And only then do they both do something stupid?!
He gets drunk and (abandoned by both Gerry and Tim?! The fuck? You don't do that guys.) and blackouts with someone, and she... goes to "the real man". Ouch.
(And I love and hate that scene in the hallway, where you can see how hurt he actually is, and how much she is reeling. Bravo to the acting but dammit.)
Dale then... loses some of his innocence, after. He has to, he has to own up in a way, or lose it all. It's why he rejects her (also absolutely) ill-advised proposal, after. He knows they're past that. He knows he is.
And so he does what Gerry did.
Pain, pain and more pain.
But hate?
No. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Help me find the source for a citation
Edit: Found it thanks to @indvoran https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cH-UDhfNhw The quote is at around 13:00
Thank you! :))))
youtube
I have seen people use this quote a couple of times:
"It's 1987, there was not really the language for him to discover that (and he's working in such a rigid environment), to even really understand what bisexuality is or what pansexuality is or maybe demisexual (sic)."
-Sam Reid. ABC Radio National
I cannot, for the life of me find the source. Nothing about anyone working on The Newsreader labeling Dale as Demisexual. All I can find are headcanons and Tumblr posts citing this very interview.
Has it perhaps been removed at some point? It would be great if this interview was real, I’m probably Demi and there is not a lot of representation out there.
Also I am aware of the other interviews out there that talk about Dale’s fluid/Bi sexuality, just not any with the labels Demisexual or Pansexual.

something else I am really enjoying about the newsreader s2 is the development of Noelene and Rob's relationship - it feels like they've each had a really significant impact on each other's lives and thoughts, without it being as drastic as him becoming a Big Voice For Change or her settling into a Girlfriend role. And I'm genuinely not sure if it's enough for them to be able to stay together but I'm enjoying the trip.

Dale Jennings is an awkward, perfect specimen of the bisexual disaster phenom. He makes mistakes. I love him to death. No I will not be tolerating any non constructive criticism of him🤣
