Speaker 2: Open from tomorrow. Tell us about Secrets at Red Rocks.

8
00:00:29,933 --> 00:00:32,453
Speaker 3: This is a really lovely New New Zealand show that

9
00:00:32,533 --> 00:00:35,973
Speaker 3: starts tomorrow. It's a drama based on an award winning

10
00:00:36,053 --> 00:00:39,133
Speaker 3: children's book by Rachel King and it stars dominic Aorna

11
00:00:39,173 --> 00:00:41,933
Speaker 3: Attiki and Jim Murray Arty. And it was filmed on

12
00:00:42,213 --> 00:00:45,293
Speaker 3: Wellington's South Coast. And it's about a boy, a twelve

13
00:00:45,293 --> 00:00:47,613
Speaker 3: hour old boy named Jake who arrives to stay with

14
00:00:47,733 --> 00:00:50,613
Speaker 3: his dad for a bit. He's out exploring on the

15
00:00:50,613 --> 00:00:54,293
Speaker 3: beach one day when he finds a mysterious sealskin in

16
00:00:54,333 --> 00:00:58,053
Speaker 3: a cave and he takes the sealskin home and accidentally

17
00:00:58,213 --> 00:01:01,533
Speaker 3: unlocks this magic spell that puts his whole family in danger.

18
00:01:02,013 --> 00:01:05,493
Speaker 3: And the story weaves together ancient Maulti myth and Celtic

19
00:01:05,573 --> 00:01:09,493
Speaker 3: lengend this sort of very modern contemporary setting and gives

20
00:01:09,533 --> 00:01:12,973
Speaker 3: it a mystical vibe and a touch of the supernatural.

21
00:01:13,053 --> 00:01:15,933
Speaker 3: And it is essentially a kid's show, but it's screening

22
00:01:16,013 --> 00:01:18,613
Speaker 3: and primetime on sky Open tomorrow night. And I loved this.

23
00:01:18,773 --> 00:01:20,853
Speaker 3: I watched this with a big smile on my face.

24
00:01:21,653 --> 00:01:23,733
Speaker 3: It's a show that all the family can watch together.

25
00:01:24,333 --> 00:01:28,453
Speaker 3: It's warm and magical and quite nostalgic as well. It

26
00:01:28,533 --> 00:01:30,413
Speaker 3: reminded me a lot of the shows that I grew

27
00:01:30,493 --> 00:01:33,373
Speaker 3: up watching in the nineteen eighties, those New Zealand cadult

28
00:01:33,453 --> 00:01:36,133
Speaker 3: dramas that we used to make that were real adventure stories.

29
00:01:36,813 --> 00:01:38,413
Speaker 3: You know, the kids were the heroes and they got

30
00:01:38,453 --> 00:01:41,093
Speaker 3: into all sorts of scrapes and solved crimes. And this

31
00:01:41,213 --> 00:01:44,533
Speaker 3: has that similar wholesome but adventurous feel to it and

32
00:01:45,013 --> 00:01:48,213
Speaker 3: beautifully shot as well. The Wellington Coast is the perfect

33
00:01:48,213 --> 00:01:51,333
Speaker 3: setting for this story. Don't be put off at don't

34
00:01:51,373 --> 00:01:52,773
Speaker 3: be put off by it being a kid's show, is

35
00:01:52,813 --> 00:01:55,373
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. It's a really lovely New Zealand drama.

36
00:01:55,493 --> 00:01:58,093
Speaker 2: Great, Okay, this sounds awesome. Secrets at Red Rock So

Speaker 3: local crime family who's led by another very strong, dominant woman.

50
00:02:40,813 --> 00:02:43,653

Speaker 3: they have to be very inventive and resourceful to survive.

53
00:02:50,013 --> 00:02:53,413
Speaker 3: And even though this is a historical drama, it feels

54
00:02:53,533 --> 00:02:56,413
Speaker 3: very modern and theatrical. It's got big energy, it's got

55
00:02:56,413 --> 00:02:59,573
Speaker 3: a modern soundtrack. It's not one of those dry kind

56
00:02:59,573 --> 00:03:02,373
Speaker 3: of historical dramas, and it reminded me a lot of

57
00:03:02,413 --> 00:03:05,653
Speaker 3: Peaky Blinders. You've got a bit of crime, you've got

58

Speaker 3: some family pol that's set after the war, and it's

59
00:03:09,013 --> 00:03:10,813

Speaker 3: when the safety of her witnesses is compromised by the

69
00:03:40,973 --> 00:03:43,693
Speaker 3: colleague she's having the affair with, Liz needs to find

70
00:03:43,733 --> 00:03:46,373
Speaker 3: out how this happened. Is she the one who has

71
00:03:46,533 --> 00:03:48,973
Speaker 3: accidentally compromised this case when she's met up with him

72
00:03:49,253 --> 00:03:52,333
Speaker 3: and revealed information that she shouldn't, or is this corruption

73
00:03:52,493 --> 00:03:57,053
Speaker 3: coming from somewhere else in her team. This started really well.

74
00:03:57,093 --> 00:04:00,173
Speaker 3: It begins as a really solid British crime drama and

75
00:04:00,173 --> 00:04:03,613
Speaker 3: it's got that twist of the witness protection angle, which

76
00:04:03,653 --> 00:04:06,053
Speaker 3: I really liked. But there are a couple of things

77
00:04:06,173 --> 00:04:08,013
Speaker 3: at the end of the first episode that we're a

78
00:04:08,053 --> 00:04:10,613
Speaker 3: little bit cliched, and I do wonder if this is

79
00:04:10,613 --> 00:04:12,453
Speaker 3: going to go off the rails a bit more as

80
00:04:12,493 --> 00:04:15,893
Speaker 3: it goes on. But Schevorn Finnareant is so good in this.

81
00:04:16,093 --> 00:04:17,933
Speaker 3: Catherine Kelly stars and this as well, so it's got

82
00:04:17,933 --> 00:04:20,853
Speaker 3: a great cast. It's definitely worth a watch, I reckon,

83
00:04:20,893 --> 00:04:23,853
Speaker 3: as long as you don't mind a few crime drama

84
00:04:23,853 --> 00:04:25,733
Speaker 3: cliches chucked in there as you go along.

85
00:04:25,973 --> 00:04:28,533
Speaker 2: Yeah right, okay, that's called protection. That's on TV and

86
00:04:28,573 --> 00:04:30,733
Speaker 2: Z Plus. Hey you have Tara. I finally caught up.

87
00:04:30,773 --> 00:04:32,573
Speaker 2: You know how, I'm absolutely hopeless at watching shows when

88
00:04:32,613 --> 00:04:34,213
Speaker 2: they immediately come out, and it takes me months or

89
00:04:34,333 --> 00:04:36,773
Speaker 2: years to catch up. Well, one of the upsides of

90
00:04:36,813 --> 00:04:38,493
Speaker 2: having a two and a half week old baby who

91
00:04:38,653 --> 00:04:40,413
Speaker 2: just loves being up all night is that I have

92
00:04:40,533 --> 00:04:43,453
Speaker 2: had a little bit of extra time and finally saw

93
00:04:43,573 --> 00:04:44,573
Speaker 2: The Day of the Jackal.

94
00:04:45,693 --> 00:04:46,933
Speaker 1: It's so good.

95
00:04:47,453 --> 00:04:48,213
Speaker 3: I loved it.

96
00:04:48,293 --> 00:04:50,893
Speaker 2: I just honestly and jecked it into my veins. It

97
00:04:51,053 --> 00:04:55,013
Speaker 2: was I just every frame, every minute, loved it, Absolutely

98
00:04:55,013 --> 00:04:56,973
Speaker 2: loved it. So they're making a season two of that now.

99
00:04:56,973 --> 00:05:00,053

100
00:05:00,093 --> 00:05:02,413
