Family Christmas messages tv one broadcast 1985
Does anyone remember the family Christmas messages that were broadcast during commercial breaks on (I think) tv one, during December 1985? They are usually about a minute long, during the early evening.
I’ve been trying to get a copy of one from TVNZ and the archives, but don’t have enough details.
My late brother was in one, filmed in Christchurch, and none other of my family ever saw it. It would make an awesome present for my dad. Mum died 15 years ago without seeing it.
So I’m hoping someone might remember some details about the clips. Or even was in one or had family in one. Maybe have a recording, with some details that could help with the search.
Any info would be appreciated.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
