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.
Ready to Roll, later RTR Countdown, kicked off in the mid-1970s with Roger Gascoigne as the host. By the time the 1990s rolled around it was quite a different show. Joining Jesse Mulligan to discuss RTR's different iterations are Simon Morris, and Robert Rakete.
