Sir Eric Herbert Pearce, OBE (5 March 1905 – 12 April 1997) was a broadcaster and television pioneer in Australia. Pearce was born in Hampshire, England, and had an early career in radio on the BBC before migrating to Australia, where he was a long-term newsreader on Melbourne TV stations HSV Channel 7 (1956ā65) and GTV Channel 9 (late 1950sā74, 1976ā78). Pearce was married three times: Ella Mary (fl. 1933); Jean Mary Macartney (1909ā1956); and Betty (died c. 1987). Pearce's catchphrase sign-off of his news reports, "God bless you, and you", was for viewers and his third wife. Pearce was a devout Anglican.
