Music special Christmas with Delta will premiere on TVNZ1 tomorrow (Christmas Day) from 12.15pm to 1.15pm. When it aired on Nine in Australia it ran for nearly 90 minutes including ads, so I think there will be some editing.

No advertising allowed on Xmas day in NZ, so that might play a part?

Why’s that?
Jesus would smite us.
No, basically just tradition now at this point and no one has pushed hard enough to change it. Good Friday and Easter Sunday also no ads days. Rather quaint but quite nice at the same time if you are watching TV!

Is it just paid ads? So is it like ABC, with only network ads?
Yep. Network promos can still air.

Assuming it’ll be the usual ‘no frills’ coverage (ie; TVNZ just airing a feed of the fireworks at Sky Tower without having a presenter)?

Live coverage of the New Year’s Eve fireworks - across all TVNZ channels (1, 2 and DUKE) - concluded with co-hosts Wendy Petrie and Jordan Vandermade signing off.

I saw a snippet of the earlier TVNZ 1 broadcast and they tied in a live cross to Jordan at the Viaduct. Not bad given the show was clearly pre-recorded.
Wendy and Jordan also gave a short sign off after the fireworks concluded.

SAS Australia would do well on bravo if it receives a lot of promotion outside of being promoted on bravo.

Does this fit screening on Bravo? I thought the channel was just Real Housewives repeats
