During this period Fennell was selected as one of four presenters (along with Megan Spencer, Jaimie Leonarder, and Fenella Kernebone) of a revamped version of SBS's long running The Movie Show following the departure of former hosts, David Stratton and Margaret Pomeranz, in mid 2004.[1] Fennell remained with the show until June, 2006, when the show went on hiatus, returning in a different format (and with a different team) in 2007.[2][3]
Fennell currently reviews film for multiple ABC Radio Stations including 702 ABC Sydney and the ABC's national youth broadcaster triple j. He also presented a weekly film segment called 'Flicked' on triple j tv. In addition, Fennell presents film reviews on the morning show The Circle.
