Nice One - Christmas Show

Television (Full Length Episode) – 1978

Stu Dennison hosted children’s show Nice One from 1976 to 1978, making the catchphrase “Nice one, Stu” part of Kiwi TV legend. This 1978 Christmas show and final episode, expands from the show's shorter after-school length to a half-hour special. Series regulars David Hollis and Steve Allen take the stage for musical performances. Isabel Iornsmiller shares Christmas craft ideas perfect for kids, and culinary icon Alison Holst, joined by her children Simon and Kirsten. whips up a festive desert truffle recipe. Topped off with Stu’s iconic corduroy flares and waistcoat, it’s a nostalgic 70s delight to behold.

Today we’ve got all the old Christmas wrappings that come off presents, which you take off at the beginning of Christmas day and we’re using them to make crafts . . .  they’re all such lovely colours it seems a shame to throw them away doesn’t it?
– Isabel Iornsmiller introduces ideas for festive children's crafts, in part one of this special
