The 3rd Half takes two teams, captained by Buck Shelford and Glen Osborne (Oz) and uses the talents of the inimitable Willie Lose (NewstalkZB and Radio Sport) to keep the line outs straight, the scrums from being screwed and the language somewhat decorous. The teams are made up from rugby clubs from throughout the country. They will be tested on their knowledge of regional, national and international sports knowledge, with a Māori twist and lots of laughs. Club pride and passion play a pivotal role with The 3rd Half. It’s an opportunity for clubs to battle it out and become The 3rd Half champion club of the year! Expect to see Buck and Oz performing a club song or haka, lead their teams in general rugby knowledge question rounds, get the teams to answer telling questions about their captains, get involved in a regional rugby quiz round, commentate a game and conduct their own post match interviews. Get down with the most entertaining sports quiz show in the motu. EPISODE  TEAMS                                                        1              WAITEMATA v.

Join presenters Te Ori Paki and Aroha Hathaway as they enlist the expert help of resident landscaper David Clayton-Greene and our new builder in the series Harry Anneff. Rain or shine – nothing stands in the way of Marae DIY!  The challenges are endless.  Racing against the clock the team and whānau band together travelling as far as from Australia to get stuck in and lend a hand with the mahi.  Each makeover is delivered with the usual brand of humour, building ingenuity and creative landscaping. Buildings and gardens are not the only things up for a face-lift. The team also whisk away three kuia, to receive their own make-over before returning to the marae to see all the work their whānau have done in just four days. In series 8 of Marae DIY we introduce our new builder Harry Anneff and watch him take on the challenges of the biggest decks ever built and the reclad of not only one but two buildings with in this series.  This season Marae DIY travel as far south as Martinborough and end with a unique double episode of an iwi rediscovering their original Pa site.  This is a unique story of the relationship between Council and Iwi working together to help preserve not only the site but it’s 100 year old trenches.  http://www.maoritelevision.com/default.aspx?tabid=468&pid=3598Wed, 04 May 2011 00:58:00 GMThttp://www.maoritelevision.com/default.aspx?tabid=468&pid=3598Sundays at 7.00pm KAI TIME ON THE ROAD explores the traditional foods and flavours of real people in Aotearoa.

MANLY MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL - Currently off air. Pursuing a seventh successive finals appearance in 2011, the Sea Eagles will have to do their best to steer clear of the ill-timed injuries and suspensions which brought their 2010 season to an end, what's more they will need to address the major lapses in consistency and concentration which were the hallmarks of their season. One of the biggest hurdles the club will face is the lack of depth in the top squad. While the top 17 will have a familiar look about it, with plenty of class and experience throughout, the salary cap has stripped the club of much of the depth they once had and they will be relying heavily on the younger brigade to step up when players are inevitably unavailable. Many critics have Manly-Warringah finishing around the middle to lower end of the ladder, that would be a fair assessment at this stage when looking at last season, nevertheless they also showed they are capable of playing some of the highest quality rugby league in the NRL, if they address their issues with consistency. If they can also conjure up some good luck, it would not surprise to see them well in the top eight at seasons end.    http://www.maoritelevision.com/default.aspx?tabid=640&pid=9759Wed, 02 Mar 2011 22:03:00 GMThttp://www.maoritelevision.com/default.aspx?tabid=640&pid=9759A hard-hitting current affairs series that probes the underbelly of the media and media makers. Hosted by the outspoken and often controversial Willie Jackson, he makes demands on our media and calls them to task in a way that hasn’t been seen on our network before. His style may not be to everyone’s liking, but he will do his level best to get your attention.

In that regard, Māori Television is very well placed. We have a unique spirit of commitment shared by all staff, management and board members to ensure that we – as kaitiaki of this taonga – fulfil the dreams and aspirations of those who were at the forefront of the establishment of Māori Television. Those leaders, both Māori and Pākehā, clearly identified the importance of television for the survival and resurgence of our indigenous language and culture. Employing more than 170 staff – many of whom are professional broadcasters of considerable talent and experience – Māori Television has adopted an ambitious vision, mission and set of values supported by challenging but achievable strategic goals.  As an aspirational organisation, we continue to promote, pursue and measure excellence in all activities that we undertake. On-going emphasis will continue to be specifically placed upon the quality of Māori language utilised, the quality of programmes broadcast, and the quality of our people. High quality Māori language and programming is a constant reflection of the quality of our people within our organisation. To that end, significant investment will continue to be made in developing journalistic and technical craft skills. However, our focus on excellence extends across the entire organisation. To maintain and continue our success we rely upon the development of an insightful and robust schedule, operational and technological expertise, engaged viewers and a high level of awareness of what our channels have to offer, and an efficient and effective overall business performance.  http://www.maoritelevision.com/default.aspx?tabid=522&pid=9114Thu, 17 Feb 2011 00:58:00 GMThttp://www.maoritelevision.com/default.aspx?tabid=522&pid=9114AA RAU (“from the pages”) is a new series on books, about Māori or written by Māori.

It’s the place where haka groups from around Aotearoa and Australia congregate to see who will wear the title of the Māori world’s top group for the next two years. This biennial event is a must on the Māori social calendar and mixes competition with tradition. Te Matatini 2011 features 42 haka groups representing 13 regions including Australia, competing in a highly skilled and disciplined demonstration of the Māori performing Arts. The Festival is regarded as the ‘premier Māori cultural performing arts festival’. It is the world’s largest celebration of Māori performing arts, showcasing Māori culture and talent attracting upwards of 30,000 participants and visitors. The performance stage is set alight with a mixture of waiata, haka and chants with the very best of Māori performance and pageantry. Te Matatini recognises the strength of diversity among Māori tribes, hapū and whānau, while equally encouraging all to come together and celebrate as one. For four days in late February this year, Te Matatini Festival will be held in the natural amphitheatre landscapes of Wai o Hika Estate. In 2011, Māori Television will capture the heart of this kapa haka extravaganza through a mixture of highlights, live programming and entire group performances through Toi Whakaari.
