A year ago, almost to the day, Karl Stefanovic interviewed the wonderful Olivia Newton-John for 60 MINUTES. His story was about how successful she had been professionally and how she overcame personal hurdles, including a highly publicised but long-beaten battle with breast cancer. During that story they played tennis together. Olivia didn’t mention it at the time but her back had been a bit sore, although she dismissed the pain as the normal aches of advancing years. Then, four months ago, an MRI scan revealed the truth, Olivia’s cancer had returned, more than two decades after she was given the all clear. Like the rest of the country, Stefanovic was stunned and saddened when he heard the news, but in Olivia’s first television interview since the recurrence of her disease, she tells him how determined she is to defeat it this time around.
