ON THE 52ND SEASON PREMIERE OF "60 MINUTES" SUNDAY: THE SAUDI CROWN PRINCE TALKS ABOUT THE MURDER OF JAMAL KHASHOGGI; INSIDE THE U.S. PRESIDENTIAL IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY; AND THE RESURGENCE OF GREAT WHITE SHARKS

60 MINUTES marks its 52nd season premiere Sunday with three timely stories from domestic and foreign datelines. Norah O'Donnell's rare interview with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman leads the broadcast followed by Scott Pelley's look at the impeachment inquiry into the presidency of Donald Trump. The third segment is Bill Whitaker's report on the resurgence of perhaps man's most feared creature, the great white shark. The 52nd season premiere of 60 MINUTES will be broadcast Sunday, Sept. 29 (7:30-8:30 PM, ET/7:00-8:00 PM, PT) on the CBS Television Network.

O'Donnell traveled to Saudi Arabia this week where she interviewed the crown prince in Jeddah. It is the crown prince's first appearance on American television discussing the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi. It is also his first interview since his kingdom's oil facilities were bombed.

Scott Pelley has been in the nation's capital all week observing the raging impeachment inquiry and gathering the facts and people to tell this fascinating story, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.).

Bill Whitaker was on the water in New England and Nova Scotia earlier this month, where sightings of great white sharks close to beaches have created what scientists are saying is a mostly unwarranted fear. One thing is for certain: there are many more of the big fish in the ocean than before.
