Pyne & Marles is an Australian television political commentary program broadcast weekly on Sky News Live. The program is co-hosted by two serving frontbench MPs; Liberal minister Christopher Pyne and Labor shadow minister Richard Marles, without a journalist or moderator. It covers the political issues of the week.
The series premiered on 6 February 2016 on Sky News Live at 8:30am AEDT, replacing Saturday Agenda and continuing weekly. The program is broadcast live each week in which it airs. Both hosts have been given editorial control over the program, and neither will be paid by Sky News for presenting the format.
The program moved to Friday afternoons for its second season, in the timeslot To The Point holds on other weekdays. The program returned for a third season on 17 February 2017.
The program has been lampooned for the "awkward" presenting style of the presenters.
