Throughout 2021, 'Afternoons with Jesse Mulligan' on Radio New Zealand shone a spotlight on a fondly remembered Kiwi TV show each Thursday. The audio-only series features interviews with key talent who were involved in each production. Take a walk down memory lane.
Maggie's Garden Show was a ratings hit for over a decade, from 1992 until 2003. It was a magazine show presented by Maggie Barry, who had a long career in radio and television before she went on to become a National MP. Jack Hobbs, curator of the Auckland Botanic Gardens, was one of a number of other presenters on the show. Maggie and Jack are in to chat with Jesse Mulligan about gardening on prime time TV.
