I forgot about that era of the weather presenter opening the top of the bulletin and how many years the current opener has been around for!

Pippa Wetzell (!) and Melissa Stokes fronting Breakfast today, Jenny Suo reading the news, Chris Chang fronting Olympic segments from Paris and Jenny-May in Hastings at Toitu Te Reo.
Pippa also did yesterday (with J-M) and Melissa on news.
Wow, didn’t think Pippa was still hanging around. Always enjoyed her and Paul back in the day.
Wendy Petrie co-hosting Seven Sharp tonight with Jeremy.
Still think this is the best promo TVNZ ever produced. Probably the best news promo anywhere ever (IMO anyway). Would love love LOVE to see a modern version.
Does anyone know where on YouTube the One News promo from 2003? Is on YouTube. Using Coldplays “Clocks”
TVNZ is currently running on generator power.
Digby Werthmuller is leaving TVNZ to join ABC News Australia.
Te Karere coming on the air early at 3:30pm today for an extended hour bulletin due to the death of Tūheitia Paki, the Māori king.
Melissa Stokes live from Tūrangawaewae Marae, Ngāruawāhia due to the Māori King passing.
Also the lead story tonight.
What a weird shot. Move the desk all the way out or don’t use the studio at all if you don’t have a presenter there.
Forgive my Aussie ignorance but was the King anything but ceremonial?
1news, have they updated their general map graphics?
