Quite interesting to see that The Hui is still being filmed on the old Newshub set.

Shame after all these years there’s so no real options for viewing. Sure streaming and cost of a slot? On a satellite is limited and expensive but surely there’s a way for more. Refreshing now and then to flick through tv channels.

A license requirement?
Is it similar to the Queen’s funeral with processions etc? or is it a service? How will they go about covering it in terms of wraparound or will it be a straight feed from the place?
