Alan Jones' return to television in doubt as Chris Smith replaces the veteran broadcaster on ADH-TV amid sex abuse allegations and heath woes


Alan Jones' return to television appears to have been delayed after Chris Smith took the veteran broadcaster's slot on digital network ADH-TV.

In the wake of a series of stories in Nine Newspapers in December alleging he preyed on young men during his lengthy career, Jones held talks with his confidantes at his luxury apartment in the 'Toaster' building at Sydney's Circular Quay. The former king of Sydney talkback radio took off for London soon after the allegations were published; a trip Jones said on Sunday had long been planned to celebrate his godson's 21st birthday and take in some West End shows. Jones made a rare public appearance in July, attending a dinner to celebrate Matt Canavan's 10th anniversary in the Senate at The Paddock restaurant in Queensland (pictured)
