New 60 Minutes December 1 Episode Preview Reveals Kate Winslet, Notre Dame & More
Hey, “60 Minutes” fans. We’re back at you with another new preview session for your favorite news show. In this one, we’re going to tell you what you can expect to see from the next, new episode 12 of this current season 57, which is due out tonight, December 1, 2024.
CBS put out an official press release for tonight’s new episode 12. So, that is what we’ll be diving into for this preview session. Let’s get into it.
In tonight’s new episode 12, the 60 Minutes team is going to present a total of 4, new segments that will span for a total of 90 minutes instead of the usual 60 minutes. The first segment is titled, “NOTRE DAME.” CBS’ official description for it reads like this, “Next Sunday, Dec. 8, the arched doors of the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris will open to the public for the first time since April 2019, when a devastating fire nearly destroyed the great Gothic church.
What will they see? Correspondent Bill Whitakerhas a first look inside a modern miracle of repair and restoration by workers and artisans who made possible French President Emmanuel Macron’s impossible-sounding pledge to complete the rebirth in five years. As Macron tells Whitaker, “The decision to rebuild Notre Dame was…about our capacity to save, restore, sometimes reinvent what we are by preserving where we come from.” Rome Hartman is the producer.”
The second segment is titled, “SMITH ISLAND.” CBS’ description for it reads like this, “Located in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay and only accessible by boat, Smith Island, Md. is a place where time stands still, and its residents speak a unique dialect. Rising sea levels and erosion are changing the landscape and placing residents at risk of becoming some of the country’s first climate refugees.
Correspondent Jon Wertheim meets these locals to hear how climate change threatens their way of life – and the island itself – but where their perseverance and pride are inspiring a new generation of islanders. Michelle St. John is the producer.”
The 3rd segment is titled, “KATE WINSLET.” CBS’ description for it reads like this, “Correspondent Cecilia Vega travels to the UK for an intimate portrait of actor Kate Winslet, Hollywood’s most non-Hollywood A-Lister, and discusses her transformative journey to starring in and producing her latest film, “Lee.”
Winslet, who has been a vocal advocate against the insults and inequalities facing women in the film industry, relies on this experience for her current role, portraying American photographer Lee Miller, who worked for Vogue as one of the few female war correspondents on the frontline of WWII. As Vega discovers, Winslet and Miller share a resilience and see the world through a similar lens, making her connection more than just a role. Ayesha Siddiqi is the producer.”
The 4th and final segment for tonight’s new episode 12 is titled, “WELCOME TO THE WEDDING.” CBS’ description for it reads like this, “After the dramatic exit of the United States military from Afghanistan in 2021 left the country under Taliban control, U.S. allies found themselves in danger. Correspondent Jon Wertheim reports on the unimaginable story of nearly 400 Afghans who were evacuated under the guise of a wedding party.
Wertheim reveals the treacherous, high stakes rescue operation organized by American citizens and led by former Army intelligence officer Jason Kander that concealed men, women and children in an Afghan wedding palace. This is a double-length segment. Draggan Mihailovich is the producer.”
Again, CBS’ press release confirmed that the next, new episode 12 of 60 Minutes’ current season 57 is indeed scheduled to hit the air tonight, December 1, 2024 in the 6:30 pm central standard time slot, or after CBS’ LIVE coverage of an NFL football game. Whichever comes first. It will also be available for streaming on Paramount+. Again, this will be a special, 90-minute episode. So, expect it to wrap up at 8 pm central standard time.
Alright, guys. That is a wrap for this latest, “60 Minutes” TV show, preview report, but definitely stay tuned for more.
