Speaker 2: good morning. Let's begin with New Zealand's Best Homes with

6
00:00:22,493 --> 00:00:23,293
Speaker 2: Phil Spencer.

7
00:00:24,013 --> 00:00:24,213
Speaker 1: Yeah.

8
00:00:24,253 --> 00:00:26,173
Speaker 3: Look, when you win the fifteen million tonight Jack, this

9
00:00:26,333 --> 00:00:28,453
Speaker 3: few show, it's going to give you some ideas about

10
00:00:28,453 --> 00:00:31,453
Speaker 3: how to spend it. This is TVNZ's new property show

11
00:00:31,493 --> 00:00:33,813
Speaker 3: that starts tomorrow night, and it is exactly what it

12
00:00:33,813 --> 00:00:36,213
Speaker 3: says in the title. It's a show that takes us

13
00:00:36,253 --> 00:00:39,373
Speaker 3: inside some of the country's most impressive homes. And it's

14
00:00:39,373 --> 00:00:41,933
Speaker 3: hosted by Phil Spencer, who is best known as one

15
00:00:41,973 --> 00:00:45,773
Speaker 3: of the hosts of Location, Location, Location, and he visited

16
00:00:45,853 --> 00:00:48,053
Speaker 3: New Zealand earlier this year and had a lovely trip

17
00:00:48,093 --> 00:00:51,093
Speaker 3: around the country. What a gig visiting some of the

18
00:00:51,133 --> 00:00:53,933
Speaker 3: most incredible homes. Some very expensive homes too, i think,

19
00:00:54,613 --> 00:00:56,733
Speaker 3: and the homes of the show are all very different.

20
00:00:56,853 --> 00:00:59,813
Speaker 3: But he speaks to the owners and the architects about

21
00:00:59,853 --> 00:01:01,493
Speaker 3: why they built their houses the way they did and

22
00:01:01,533 --> 00:01:05,053
Speaker 3: why they made those choices. It's a bit like Grand designs,

23
00:01:05,093 --> 00:01:08,093
Speaker 3: but without all the stressful bit of the build and

24
00:01:08,093 --> 00:01:11,093
Speaker 3: Phil Spencer. I mean, we love location, location, location here,

25
00:01:11,133 --> 00:01:13,013
Speaker 3: we can't get enough of it. So to have Phil

26
00:01:13,053 --> 00:01:15,373
Speaker 3: Spencer here looking at our homes, I think people will

27
00:01:15,413 --> 00:01:18,653
Speaker 3: really like that crossover. And I mean I love an

28
00:01:18,653 --> 00:01:21,453
Speaker 3: open home, I love looking of course designed choices and

29
00:01:21,493 --> 00:01:24,013
Speaker 3: you know, being really nosy. And this takes you right

30
00:01:24,013 --> 00:01:27,093
Speaker 3: inside some very big, creative, glamorous homes that have the

31
00:01:27,133 --> 00:01:28,333
Speaker 3: most spectacular views.

32
00:01:28,413 --> 00:01:30,653
Speaker 2: Yeah, one hundred percent cannot wait for that. So that's

33
00:01:30,653 --> 00:01:33,093
Speaker 2: New Zealand's Best Homes with Phil Spencer starts on TV

34
00:01:33,133 --> 00:01:35,773
Speaker 2: and Z one tomorrow. It's on TV and Z plus

35
00:01:35,773 --> 00:01:38,413
Speaker 2: as well. Third and final season of the New Zealand

36
00:01:38,413 --> 00:01:39,933
Speaker 2: film show Sweet Tooth.

37
00:01:40,533 --> 00:01:43,533
Speaker 3: Yes, the last season of Sweet Tooth dropped on Netflix

38
00:01:43,573 --> 00:01:45,213
Speaker 3: this week, and I wanted to mention this show for

39
00:01:45,693 --> 00:01:47,773
Speaker 3: a couple of reasons. The first, as you mentioned, it's

40
00:01:47,773 --> 00:01:50,013
Speaker 3: an American show, but it is filmed in New Zealand,

41
00:01:50,053 --> 00:01:52,813
Speaker 3: so lots of beautiful scenery in this and lots of

42
00:01:53,293 --> 00:01:55,973
Speaker 3: recognizable New Zealand actors in this as well. But it's

43
00:01:56,013 --> 00:01:59,893
Speaker 3: also a very sweet and warm, fairy tale kind of show.

44
00:01:59,933 --> 00:02:04,213
Speaker 3: It deals with quite a dark and unusual storyline, but

45
00:02:04,253 --> 00:02:06,973
Speaker 3: it does it in quite a charming, magical kind of way.

46
00:02:07,373 --> 00:02:09,933
Speaker 3: It's a fantasy series and it's set in a world

47
00:02:10,373 --> 00:02:14,053
Speaker 3: where a mysterious disease has swept the planet and caused

48
00:02:14,053 --> 00:02:17,293
Speaker 3: babies to be born as half human half animal. And

49
00:02:17,333 --> 00:02:19,573
Speaker 3: the show is about one of these hybrid children, a

50
00:02:19,653 --> 00:02:22,973
Speaker 3: ten year old gus named Gus, who goes on a

51
00:02:23,053 --> 00:02:25,333
Speaker 3: journey through the land to find his mother, and he

52
00:02:25,413 --> 00:02:28,533
Speaker 3: has to avoid being caught by people who are hunting

53
00:02:28,573 --> 00:02:31,253
Speaker 3: down these hybrid humans, and he meets all sorts of

54
00:02:31,373 --> 00:02:33,373
Speaker 3: characters along the way who help him, and it's you know,

55
00:02:34,213 --> 00:02:36,813
Speaker 3: it's a beautiful coming of age story. It's a fantasy,

56
00:02:36,973 --> 00:02:39,373
Speaker 3: it's a drama. There's action in this as well. It

57
00:02:39,453 --> 00:02:43,013
Speaker 3: feels a bit Jim hence an esque. It's aimed at adults,

58
00:02:43,053 --> 00:02:44,853
Speaker 3: but if you've got older kids in the house, I

59
00:02:44,853 --> 00:02:48,373
Speaker 3: think they'll really love this as well. It's straight, strange

60
00:02:48,453 --> 00:02:51,453
Speaker 3: and sweet and beautiful all at once. Quite unusual.

61
00:02:51,533 --> 00:02:54,093
Speaker 2: Yeah, cool, Okay, that's sweet tooth. It's on Netflix and

62
00:02:54,133 --> 00:02:56,053
Speaker 2: on three now. Tell us about Blue Lights.

63
00:02:56,773 --> 00:02:59,293
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mentioned Blue Lights when the first season came

64
00:02:59,293 --> 00:03:01,293
Speaker 3: out a year or two ago, and the second season

65
00:03:01,293 --> 00:03:03,453
Speaker 3: has just dropped on three now. And if you're a

66
00:03:03,453 --> 00:03:07,813
Speaker 3: fan of police procedural drama like Line of Duty or

67
00:03:07,853 --> 00:03:11,613
Speaker 3: Happy Valley or a really good British tense police drama,

68
00:03:11,653 --> 00:03:14,093
Speaker 3: this is one for you. This is a BBC drama.

69
00:03:14,173 --> 00:03:17,253
Speaker 3: It's set in Belfast in Northern Ireland and it's about

70
00:03:17,293 --> 00:03:21,133
Speaker 3: three rookie police officers who join the force and are

71
00:03:21,373 --> 00:03:24,253
Speaker 3: immediately thrown into the deep end in a city that

72
00:03:24,373 --> 00:03:28,013
Speaker 3: has its own unique challenges and issues and history. And

73
00:03:28,733 --> 00:03:31,333
Speaker 3: it just takes every box for a great police drama.

74
00:03:31,413 --> 00:03:34,973
Speaker 3: Good characters, it's tense and gritty. There's a bit of action,

75
00:03:35,133 --> 00:03:38,053
Speaker 3: you know, there's some car chases, but it feels very realistic.

76
00:03:38,093 --> 00:03:40,373
Speaker 3: It's not over the top, very easy to get into

77
00:03:40,453 --> 00:03:41,293
Speaker 3: and very bingeable.

78
00:03:41,613 --> 00:03:44,133
Speaker 2: I'd love it, Okay, Thanks Tara. That's Blue Lights. So

79
00:03:44,173 --> 00:03:47,093
Speaker 2: Blue Lights is on three now. Sweet Tooth is on Netflix.

80
00:03:47,373 --> 00:03:50,253
