Dame Julie Christie: Celebrity Treasure Island Creator on the NZ On Air funding boost for Kiwi made TV shows

A push to ensure funding for Kiwi made TV shows is a hand up, not a handout.   NZ On Air has announced its non-fiction funding, which includes more than $1.3 million for Celebrity Treasure Island.  It's returning for its seventh season.   Creator Dame Julie Christie told Ryan Bridge we can't only have Australian and British shows, we need New Zealand to become a TV hub.   She says we have to look at improving things within our own industry to get back to creating the shows we used to create.   LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
