Bloopers - News

Television (Excerpts) – 2018

These clips offer up a selection of Kiwi news bloopers. First, Sacha McNeil presents a retrospective of unscripted moments from TV3’s first 25 years of news: newsreaders sneeze and laugh, and reporters face rogue weather, animals, dance routines, and lashings of champagne from Olympic champions. Then Hilary Barry laughs at inappropriate moments on The Paul Henry Show: she starts an extended battle with the giggles while mentioning All Black Waisake Naholo’s broken leg (2015). The following year, she loses it over an emergency defecation situation which she later wrote about here.

The problem is once you start getting the giggles, you giggle through inappropriate stuff and I apologise.
– Hilary Barry
