Just get Sandra Sully to present 10 News: First At Five New Zealand from Sydney and don’t miss that riverting Australian programming like Studio 10 (Australian Informercial are just overlayed with Suzanne Paul) :thinking:

Well, that’s Freeview. On Sky, it’s channel 4.

Newshub has a massive advantage though in its name, as its not Channel centric

Yep. I don’t have Sky, never have. On my TV, Prime is and always has lived on LCN 5, but yes, bog-standard Freeview it’s 10.

That would be no different to when MediaWorks’ FOUR was on Freeview CH 4 and Sky CH 12

Auckland still on Level 4, doesn’t that mean they still cannot film Shortland St?

@TV_Addict Because nearly all entertainment programmes and dramas on television are based in Auckland and act as non-essential services, production on this programme is currently suspended.

I’m guessing they film weeks ahead so it’s not an issue yet, though might have to reduce episodes 5 days a week to 3 or something.

I am guessing they will put cake makers on when they reduce the amount of episodes

Hope that is bigger production values, and I have heard that TVNZ 2 is replaying Downton Abbey that originally screened on Prime which is weird schudeling decision

Isn’t that just on On Demand?
