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.
This NZ Screen History interview goes back to 1987 when TVNZ started broadcasting its own version of the UK show The Krypton Factor. Our version ran until 1991 and was hosted by former newsreader Dougal Stevenson. It involved contestants competing in various mental pursuits as well as completing an army assault course! Dougal joins Jesse Mulligan to talk about the series and his career on screen.
