The third video is a timelapse ident for the channel, and the last video is a promo for its netball coverage feature the song Dream Catch Me by Newton Faulkner.

Well here in NZ there was a lot of controversy surrounding these idents. Apparently the NZ Herald said it cost $300, 000 of the tax payers money for that. Most people have gotten over that now due to the fact it has the better programming then some channels. And this channel is getting better with the NZ Premiere of The Chaser’s War On Everything this Friday at 10pm on TV One, the ads for the show have been very discrete about what will actually be shown over here.

Evermore is a New Zealand band ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSMq-9_b1uk
). They performed an outstanding acoustic version of ‘Light Surrounding You’ with the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra as the final song of the 2007 NZ TV awards (and unfortunately, as far as I can search, that performance is not on You Tube, althoguh several acoustic ones are).

No, it did not happen – it’s all CGI. And wow Beth – you managed to capitalize pretty much every word *except* the ones that needed capitalization. Good skills!
