Holmes - Christmas Party: Ingham Twins Interview
1997 Television
- News/Current Affairs
The "Our people" introduced by Paul Holmes at his 1997 Christmas party included tearaway teenage twins Sarah and Joanne Ingham. Earlier that year the sisters had stowed away on a Malaysian container ship after Sarah fell for a sailor. The 18-year-olds made global headlines when they jumped overboard off the Queensland coast, supposedly swam through shark and croc-infested waters and spent two weeks in the bush, before being deported back to Nelson. As Holmes tries to elicit sound-bites, the notorious lasses display the laconic style that made them Kiwi folk heroes.
