Jeremy Wells

Jeremy 'Newsboy' Wells first gained fame as Mikey Havoc’s sidekick on a series of zany radio and TV shows. In 2003, he began hosting seven seasons of the satirical show Eating Media Lunch. Wells later showcased his wry, deadpan style on The Unauthorised History of New Zealand and Birdland. In 2018, he joined Hilary Barry to co-host Seven Sharp and went on to present multiple seasons of comedy panel show Taskmaster NZ.

Honestly, I am one of the luckiest people in the world. I think that every day. Jeremy Wells, in a Listener interview, 26 May 2001, page 16
