    I was actually reminded of this topic while listening to Simon Barnett on one of my many long car rides for work.

    I think Si is one of NZ entertainments true legends. Deceptive wit, a bit of charm and just a nice bloke.

    …..and Dwayne Franks who I couldn’t fucken stand when this show was on with his smarmy demeanour ended up a convicted sex offender.

    Feel free to add others.

    Face the Music. I actually did pretty well playing at home. I blame my musically obsessed father.

    Van Haley might have been a bit too “rock” for it 😉

    Back then they used music I was familiar with, or had at least heard. I'd have no idea now with popular music from the last 20 years. 🙂

    Worst NZ TV I have ever seen was the last few minutes of the Covid fundraiser where they made a train and did the "Thank you very much" dance.
    So contrived, so awful.
    But, luckily, I can't find it on YouTube,

    I think there was worse. Paddy Gower being desperate to be cred by hinting over and over that he wanted someone to pledge money for him to do a Tik-Tok dance, then doing it, then not shutting up about it. I really hope no one recorded it for posterity.

    EDIT: come to think of it anything Gower does qualifies under the heading of his thread.

    I don’t think I’ve ever agreed with a post of yours as vehemently as I do this one.

    Ignoring the 'wokeness' aspect of this, the whole moment and watching Holmes dig the hole deeper and deeper was pretty cringy in itself.
