GOOD EVENING. IT WAS A FINE SUMMERY DAY FOR MANY PLACES COURTESY OF A LARGE HIGH ANCHORED OUT TO THE WEST OF US. JUST A FEW SPITS OF MORNING DRIZZLE FOR WESTLAND AND BULLER. THE HIGH STAYS WITH US TOMORROW, BUT THERE'S ALSO A FLY IN THE OINTMENT ` A WEAK FRONT APPROACHING THE SOUTH ISLAND. LATER IN THE NEWS HOUR, I WILL TELL YOU WHERE THE RAIN WILL FALL. RIGHT NOW IT'S 6 O'CLOCK. DUE TO THE LIVE NATURE OF ONE NEWS WE APOLOGISE FOR THE LACK OF CAPTIONS FOR SOME ITEMS. EXPLOSIONS ROCK A BAY OF PLENTY TOWN IN THE MIDST OF AN ARMED POLICE RAID. FREE OVERSEAS TRIPS FOR THE HEALTH SECTOR ` WE INVESTIGATE THE DRUG COMPANY GRAVY TRAIN FOR DOCTORS. WHEN CHRISTMAS CHEER GOES BAD ` A NIGHT OUT BOOZING IN OUR BIGGEST CITY. AND IS THE PARTY OVER FOR MR GANGNAM AS HIS CONTROVERSIAL PAST CATCHES UP WITH HIM? WE BEGIN WITH AN ARMED POLICE RAID IN A SMALL BAY OF PLENTY TOWN. THE DRAMA BEGAN WITH A DRUGS RAID INVOLVING THE ARMED OFFENDERS SQUAD LATE THIS MORNING. SOME KATIKATI RESIDENTS WERE FORCED TO FLEE THEIR HOMES AFTER A SERIES OF EXPLOSIONS ROCKED AN ABANDONED FACTORY. WILL HINE HAS BEEN FOLLOWING DEVELOPMENTS. THE ARMED OFFENDERS SQUAD ON PATROL IN THE MOMENTS AFTER THEIR RAID CAME TO A FIERY END. NEARBY HOMES WERE EVACUATED AS THE BLAZE TOOK HOLD. THERE'S LOTS OF LOUD BANGS. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S COMBUSTIBLES OR FUEL. I DON'T THINK IT'S RIFLE SHOTS EVEN THOUGH THE ARMED OFFENDERS ARE CARRYING WEAPONS AT THE MOMENT. THESE AM CAM PICTURES WERE CAPTURED BY A PASSER-BY. THE ARMED OFFENDERS CAME OVER WITH RIFLES AND ALL GEARED UP, BALACLAVAS ON AND GAS MASKS, AND TOLD US THERE WAS A LOT OF TOXIC FUMES IN THE AIR, AND TO PLEASE MOVE AWAY. SOME RESIDENTS DESCRIBE A CHEMICAL SMELL IN THE AIR AS THE FIRE BURNED. THE FIRST EXPLOSION, I JUST THOUGHT SOME TYRE HAD BLOWN OUT OR SOMETHING AND THE NEXT EXPLOSION I CAME OUT AND THE SMOKE WAS ABSOLUTELY BILLOWING OUT. THERE WAS A BANG, AND SHE WENT UP. I'M ASSUMING THEY BLEW IT UP, NOT THE ARMED OFFENDERS SQUAD, THE PEOPLE INSIDE. THE POLICE SAY THEY WERE EXECUTING A DRUGS WARRANT, BUT CAN'T CONFIRM THAT THE FORMER FACTORY WAS BEING USED AS A P LAB. TWO MEN AND A WOMAN WERE TAKEN AWAY AND ARE HELPING THE POLICE WITH THEIR ENQUIRIES. OFFICERS SAY THEY'LL KNOW MORE ONCE THE SCENE HAS COOLED DOWN AND CAN BE EXAMINED. THERE IS A FAMILY WHICH LIVE ON THE PROPERTY WHICH WE ARE GOING TO RELOCATE TO ANOTHER ADDRESS JUST FOR THE NIGHT, JUST FOR THEIR OWN SAFETY, AND ALSO TO ASSIST US IN CARRYING OUT OUR SCENE EXAMINATION. THEY SAY THEY DON'T KNOW HOW THE FIRE STARTED, NOR WHAT SUBSTANCE CAUSED THE THICK BLACK SMOKE. ONE NEWS CAN REVEAL DOCTORS ARE ACCEPTING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN GIFTS AND TRAVEL FROM DRUG COMPANIES. SOME DHBS SAY THEY HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE; OTHERS KEEP NO RECORD OF WHAT THEIR STAFF HAVE RECEIVED. JEHAN CASINADER HAS THIS EXCLUSIVE STORY AND JOINS US LIVE. SOME DHBS HAVE EVEN ACCEPTED CASH DONATIONS FROM DRUG COMPANIES. THE PRACTICE IS COMMON, ACCORDING TO ONE PROFESSOR WHO NOW TURNS DRUG COMPANIES AWAY. IT BECAME CLEAR AFTER A COUPLE OF YEARS OF BEING WINED AND DINED IT BECAME CLEAR AFTER A COUPLE OF YEARS OF BEING WINED AND DINED THAT IN FACT I WAS BEING TARGETED FOR MY USEFULNESS TO THEM. THE TWO DHBS WHICH HAVE ACCEPTED THE GREATEST AMOUNTS ARE CAPITAL AND COAST AND COUNTIES MANUKAU. NEITHER WOULD GIVE US AN INTERVIEW, BUT TOLD US THEY EXPECT THE RECEIPT OF GOODS AND SERVICES TO BENEFIT PATIENTS. THEY HAVE POLICIES PREVENTING PERSONAL BENEFIT AND UNDUE INFLUENCE. THERE IS RESEARCH THAT SAYS THAT EVEN WHEN PEOPLE DON'T THINK THEY ARE BEING INFLUENCED BY SOME OF THESE RELATIVELY SIMPLE THINGS, THEY ARE BEING INFLUENCED. OUR CLINICAL DECISION-MAKING IS AFFECTED. WE OFTEN MAKE WORSE PRESCRIBING DECISIONS, AND CERTAINLY MORE COSTLY PRESCRIBING DECISIONS. THE MEDICAL COUNCIL SAYS DRUG COMPANIES HELP DOCTORS ACCESS USEFUL TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT. ANY DOCTOR INVOLVED IN THESE KINDS OF ACTIVITIES NEEDS TO BE OPEN AND TRANSPARENT AND DISCLOSING ABOUT IT. BUT SIX DHBS COULDN'T TELL US WHAT THEIR STAFF HAD RECEIVED, BECAUSE THEY DON'T KEEP RECORDS OF IT. EVEN THE PERCEPTION OF THAT IS REALLY PROBLEMATIC, AND I THINK IT REALLY UNDERMINES THE TRUST AND CONFIDENCE OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC. AND FOR THE LEADERS OF DHBS, THAT COULD BE A BITTER PILL TO SWALLOW. JEHAN, YOU'VE BEEN SPEAKING TO THE HEALTH MINISTER. WHAT'S HIS REACTION? HE SAYS DOCTORS TO ABIDE BY THE CODES OF CONDUCT. FRONT-LINE POLICE ARE CALLING FOR ACTION AS THE ALCOHOL REFORM BILL LURCHES TOWARDS THE FINISH LINE AFTER YEARS OF DELAYS. POLICE ON THE STREETS IN AUCKLAND LAST NIGHT DEALT WITH AN ESTIMATED 50,000 REVELLERS, MANY DRINKING HEAVILY FOR HOURS. SHARON FERGUSSON WAS WITH THEM ON PATROL. 'TIS THE SEASON TO BE TROLLEYED, ALTHOUGH POLICE WOULD PREFER A SILENT NIGHT. MY VIEW IS THAT AFTER 3AM, NOTHING GOOD HAPPENS IN THE CENTRAL CITY. IT'S AN ANNUAL EVENT ON THE POLICE CALENDAR. NO, NOT CHRISTMAS, BUT 'OPERATION UNITE'. 1500 POLICE OFFICERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY TARGET ALCOHOL-RELATED VIOLENCE AND DRINK-DRIVING. THERE'S BEEN LOTS OF FIGHTS, ROBBERIES, CAR CRASHES. IT'S REALLY BEEN A HECTIC, CHAOTIC NIGHT FOR THE AUCKLAND CBD TONIGHT. A FEW HOURS EARLIER THE ATMOSPHERE WAS DECIDEDLY MORE WHOLESOME. COPY. EXACT LOCATION? ON THE SOUTHERN SIDE BEHIND THE FERRIS WHEEL. BUT 'CHRISTMAS IN THE PARK' FEEDS BIG CROWDS INTO THE CITY LATER IN THE NIGHT. WE GET A FAIR FEW YOUTH DRINKING HERE, BUT WE'RE WELL SET UP WITH OUR PARTNERS AND YOUTH WORKERS. WE HAVE YOUTH TENTS. WHEN IT COMES TO DEALING WITH ALL OF THIS, POLICE AND COUNCILS ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE CURRENTLY HAMSTRUNG BY OUTDATED ALCOHOL LAWS. THEY HOPE THE ALCOHOL REFORM BILL WILL GET ITS FINAL PUSH THROUGH PARLIAMENT BEFORE CHRISTMAS. THE BILL SETS UP A 4AM STANDARD CLOSING TIME, AND THEN WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY THROUGH THE LOCAL ALCOHOL POLICY TO GET SOME MORE SENSIBLE HOURS IN PLACE. IT'S 2AM, AND WHILE PUBLIC TRANSPORT IS WINDING DOWN, THE DRINKING IS NOT. MANY BARS IN AUCKLAND HAVE LICENCES TO OPERATE 24/7, SO A LOT OF THESE PEOPLE WILL STILL BE GOING AT DAY BREAK. ONE OF THE LAW CHANGES WILL ALLOW COUNCILS TO MAKE THEIR OWN RULES, DEPENDING ON THEIR NEEDS. PRELOADING'S A REAL CHALLENGE FOR US. WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTING THE ABILITY TO ISSUE INFRINGEMENT NOTICES THROUGH THE ALCOHOL REFORM BILL. ON SANTA'S LIST FOR POLICE THIS CHRISTMAS? ALCOHOL LAWS WITH TEETH. AFTER AN EXHAUSTIVE PROBE INTO THE COLLAPSE OF BULDINGS IN THE CHRISTCHURCH EARTHQUAKE, THE FINAL PART OF THE CANTERBURY EARTHQUAKE ROYAL COMMISSION REPORT WILL BE RELEASED TOMORROW. 183 PEOPLE DIED IN THE QUAKES. LISA DAVIES IN CHRISTCHURCH HAS BEEN COVERING THE HEARINGS, AND JOINS US NOW. LISA? TODAY FAMILIES WERE INVITED HERE. THEY WERE COMFORTED BY THE MEETING FAMILIES FRONTING UP ` EACH OF THEM LOST SOMEONE THEY LOVED IN THE FEBRUARY QUAKE. ONCE INSIDE, A CHANCE TO TALK THROUGH THE FINDINGS OF THE ROYAL COMMISSION THAT BEGAN LAST YEAR. (SPEAKS THAI) A ROYAL COMMISSION TO DETERMINE WHY BUILDINGS FAILED, AND WHY THERE WAS SUCH A LOSS OF LIFE. IT'S A RESPONSIBILITY TO THE BEREAVED, IT'S A RESPONSIBILITY TO THE CITY AS IT REACTS AND ATTEMPTS TO RECOVER. THE MAIN FOCUS ` FOUR BUILDINGS. CTV, WHICH CLAIMED 115 LIVES, PGC WHERE 18 DIED, THE HOTEL GRAND CHANCELLOR, AND THE FORSYTH BARR WHERE THE STAIRWELL COLLAPSED. IT'S INVOLVED 11 HEARINGS, AND HUNDREDS OF HOURS BEHIND THE SCENES FOR THE THREE COMMISSIONERS, WHO'VE LISTENED TO EVIDENCE FROM SURVIVORS. I FELT REALLY SCARED BEING IN THE CTV BUILDING AFTER SEPTEMBER 4. HOURS OF EVIDENCE FROM THOSE INVOLVED IN THE CTV DESIGN EVENTUALLY RESULTED IN AN APOLOGY. I APOLOGISE TO ALL THE FAMILIES AFFECTED AS THIS BUILDING DID NOT MEET MY STANDARDS. AND EVIDENCE FROM CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AND CONVICTED FRAUDSTER GERALD SHIRTCLIFF, WHO HAS SINCE HAD HIS FALSELY ACQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS REVOKED. I ONLY HAD LIMITED INVOLVEMENT WITH THE CTV BUILDING. EVIDENCE LIKE THAT WAS PART OF THE REPORT. THE FAMILIES CAN'T TALK ABOUT SPECIFICS TODAY. I LOOK AT IT NOW AS ON-GOING FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE ALIVE, MAKING BUILDINGS BETTER, SAFER. ANOTHER KEY STAGE FOR THESE FAMILIES AS THE FALLOUT FROM THIS DISASTER CONTINUES FOR THEM. THE FAMILIES NOW KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT, AND WE EXPECT THE REPORT TO MADE PUBLIC TOMORROW AFTERNOON. I ALSO SPOKE TO A JAPANESE FATHER WHO LOST HIS ONLY DAUGHTER IN THE CTV COLLAPSE. HE WANTS CHANGE IN THE WAY OUR EMERGENCY SERVICES OPERATE. THIS IS HIS STORY. TAKU HYUGA DIDN'T MISS A DAY OF THE CTV INQUEST, HERE TO FIND ANSWERS ABOUT HIS DAUGHTER'S DEATH. TRANSLATOR: IF HE CAN'T KNOW THE TRUTH, CAN'T GO FORWARD. HE'S SAT THROUGH SOMETIMES HARROWING EVIDENCE WITH A TRANSLATOR. HE NEEDS TO KNOW WHAT HIS DAUGHTER WENT THROUGH IN HER FINAL MOMENTS. BECAUSE HIS DAUGHTER HAD A HARD TIME AT THE END OF HER LIFE. RIKA, HIS ONLY CHILD, WAS 30 WHEN SHE DIED. SHE SURVIVED LONG ENOUGH TO TEXT FOR HELP. THE DAY SHE DIED, HE STOPPED WORKING. WHEN HE TALKS ABOUT HER, THE EMOTION IS RAW. WHAT HE'S HEARD AT THE INQUEST HAS SHOCKED HIM. IF RIKA'S DEATH WAS REALLY CAUSED BY THE HUMAN ERROR, THIS IS TOO SAD. HE WANTS ANSWERS. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT WHAT YOU'VE HEARD? HE THINKS THAT THERE IS MORE FACT OR TRUTH ` COULD BE NOT APPEARED YET. HE'S STARTED A PETITION. HE ALREADY HAS 900 SIGNATURES CALLING FOR CHANGE IN OUR EMERGENCY SERVICES. MUST CHANGE NOW, OTHERWISE NZ IS NOT SAFE DESTINATION. HE BELIEVES MORE COULD HAVE BEEN RESCUED. HE BELIEVES TAMARA COULD BE SAVED. HE'S FORMED A STRONG BOND WITH TAMARA'S HUSBAND ALEC CVETANOV, A FRIENDSHIP FORGED BY GRIEF; AND A DETERMINATION TO BRING ABOUT CHANGE FOR THOSE THEY'VE LOST. RADIO STATIONS IN NZ ARE REVIEWING THE USE OF HOAX PHONE CALLS FOLLOWING THE PRANK THAT MAY HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE DEATH OF BRITISH NURSE JACINTHA SALDANHA. SYDNEY RADIO STATION 2-DAY FM IS HOLDING AN EMERGENCY MEETING TO CONSIDER ITS RESPONSE TO THE ROYAL CALL CRISIS. AUSTRALIAN CORRESPONDENT STEVE MARSHALL REPORTS. RADIO HOSTS MEL CREIG AND MICHAEL CHRISTIAN ARE BELIEVED TO BE IN HIDING AT THIS SYDNEY HOTEL. ALSO RECEIVING SUPPORT FOR THEIR ROLE IN AN UNFORESEEN TRAGEDY. IT WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THEIR INTENTION. IT'S CERTAINLY UNFORTUNATE THAT THAT'S THE CASE. IN LONDON, TRIBUTES CONTINUE TO BE LEFT OUTSIDE NURSE SALDANHA'S HOSPITAL QUARTERS. CATASTROPHE, THAT SHE FELT SHE HAD TO DO SOMETHING SO TRAGICALLY SAD FOR SOMETHING THAT'S JUST A STUPID JOKE. THE HOSPITAL WHERE NURSE SALDANHA WORKED HAS BEEN CRITICAL OF THE RADIO STATION. HOSPITAL BOSS LORD GLENARTHUR SAID IN A LETTER... HE ADDED... THE BRITISH MEDIA IS UNITED IN CONDEMNING THE HOAX CALL. 'HOSPITAL BOSSES TURN AGAINST RADIO SHOW 'FOR HUMILIATING NURSES,' SAID ONE HEADLINE. 'GLOBAL BACKLASH AGAINST ROYAL PRANK DJs. IT WAS LOW, LAZY AND ARTLESS' ...SAID ANOTHER. BRITISH MEDIA CREWS HAVE ALSO BEEN DISPATCHED TO TRY AND TRACK DOWN THE DJ DUO. NOW SEE PEOPLE TURN AROUND AND, IN A WAY, BULLY THE TWO YOUNG PRESENTERS UNMERCIFULLY IS NOT THE WAY TO GO ABOUT IT BECAUSE ALL YOU ARE DOING IS PERPETUATING THE MISERY, THE HUMILIATION AND SHAME. PRINCE WILLIAM DECLINED TO COMMENT AT THIS TENNIS FUNCTION OVERNIGHT. YOU KNOW US AUSSIES, WE ARE JUST TRYING TO HAVE A BIT OF FUN, BUT IT WENT A BIT TOO FAR. TODAY FM BOSSES HAVE SUSPENDED ALL ADVERTISING FOR THE TIME BEING, EVEN THOUGH IT'S CONFIDENT IT'S DONE NOTHING WRONG LEGALLY. BUT THAT'S LITTLE COMFORT FOR THE FAMILY OF NURSE SALDANHA. I CAN'T FORGET HER. SHE WAS SO GOOD. SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL, AND SHE AND HER HUSBAND WERE GREAT TOGETHER. NURSE SALDANHA LEAVES BEHIND A HUSBAND, TWO CHILDREN, AND A GLOBAL MEDIA STORM. STEVE MARSHALL, ONE NEWS, SYDNEY. A FOXTON TEENAGER, WHO TAPED AN ABUSIVE TRAFFIC STOP BY A POLICEMAN, HAS GONE PUBLIC WITH THE INCIDENT. THE 16-YEAR-OLD SAYS HE DID NOTHING TO PROVOKE THE OUTBURST, AND NOW POLICE ARE INVESTIGATING. DYLLAN VAUGHAN WAS DRIVING HOME FROM HIS JOB AS A BUTCHER'S APPRENTICE IN FEILDING WHEN HE SAYS A POLICE OFFICER PULLED HIM OVER. HE STARTED ABUSING ME, STARTED SWEARING AT ME, USING, LIKE, 'DICKHEAD,' '<BLEEP>', ALL SORTS OF EXPLICIT LANGUAGE, AND I FELT REALLY INTIMIDATED. THE VERBAL ATTACK INADVERTENTLY WAS CAPTURED ON DYLLAN'S iPHONE, WHICH HE'D BEEN USING TO RECORD THE CAR RADIO. WHY DID I <BLEEP>ing PULL YOU OVER, DICKHEAD? WHAT'S THE BAD LANGUAGE FOR? THE 16-YEAR-OLD THEN PLAYED THE RECORDING TO HIS PARENTS WHO CONSULTED THEIR LAWYER. THE MOST CONCERNING MATTER WAS AT THE END WHEN THIS POLICE OFFICER SEEMS TO BE THREATENING. I CATCH YOU DOING THAT SORT OF BULLSHIT AGAIN, I'LL GO OVER YOUR CAR AND I'LL FIND AS MUCH TROUBLE AS I CAN FOR YOU. HE WAS CROUCHING DOWN RIGHT UP IN MY FACE, AND HE WAS QUITE ANGRY, ACTUALLY. HE WAS QUITE ANGRY. HE WAS SPITTING IN MY FACE WHILE HE WAS TALKING TO ME. DYLLAN SAYS THE POLICE OFFICER ACCUSED HIM OF GESTURING. WHAT WERE YOU GESTURING TOWARDS ME? I DIDN'T GESTURE ANYTHING TO TOWARDS YOU. BULLSHIT, YOU DIDN'T. I WOULDN'T DO THAT TO YOU. BULLSHIT. I WAS DRIVING JUST NORMALLY. POLICE WILL NOT SAY IF THE VOICE ON THE TAPE IS ONE OF THEIR OFFICERS OR IF THEY KNOW WHO IT IS, BUT THEY TAKE THESE TYPES OF COMPLAINTS SERIOUSLY AND IT WILL BE INVESTIGATED. SARAH BRADLEY, ONE NEWS. COMING UP ON ONE NEWS ` A MAJOR COMPROMISE FROM EGYPT'S POWER-GRABBING PRESIDENT. BUT WILL IT BE ENOUGH CALM ANGER ON THE STREETS OF CAIRO? BERLUSCONI'S POLITICAL COMEBACK AS ITALY'S PRO-AUSTERITY PRIME MINISTER ANNOUNCES HIS WORK IS DONE. AND PSY'S IN A STORM OF CONTROVERSY ` THE GANGNAM STYLE STAR IS FORCED TO EXPLAIN HIS ANTI-AMERICAN PAST. THE EGYPTIAN PRESIDENT HAS SCRAPPED A DECREE THAT SPARKED DAYS OF NATIONWIDE PROTESTS. LAST MONTH MOHAMED MORSI GAVE HIMSELF SWEEPING NEW POWERS, MEANING NO COURT COULD QUESTION HIS DECISIONS. BUT IT'S NOT CLEAR WHETHER THE REVERSAL WILL BE ENOUGH TO SILENCE THE PRESIDENT'S CRITICS. THE BBC'S WYRE DAVIS REPORTS. ALL CHANT THEY DON'T WANT THEIR PRESIDENT TO GIVE AN INCH. ULTRA-CONSERVATIVE SALAFI MUSLIMS BESIEGED CAIRO'S MEDIA COMPOUND THIS AFTERNOON. 'PRESIDENT MORSI WAS ELECTED DEMOCRATICALLY,' THEY SHOUT, 'AND THE MEDIA IS PART OF A CAMPAIGN TO DISCREDIT HIM.' THE PRESIDENT'S OPPONENTS SAY EGYPT'S DRAFT CONSTITUTION IS ONE-SIDED AND DOESN'T REPRESENT OTHER GROUPS OR FAITHS. THESE MEN DON'T CARE LESS. FOR THEM, EGYPT'S A MUSLIM COUNTRY AND ISLAM MUST HAVE A PROMINENT ROLE. ON THE OTHER SIDE OF CAIRO, OUTSIDE HIS PRESIDENTIAL PALACE, MR MORSI IS A FIGURE OF SUSPICION, A CARTOON CHARACTER, WHOSE POWER-GRABBING DECREES THREATEN THE REVOLUTION ALL EGYPTIANS FOUGHT FOR. HE IS NOT THE PRESIDENT OF THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD, HE IS THE PRESIDENT OF EGYPTIANS. IN ITS FIRST STATEMENT SINCE THE CRISIS BEGAN, THE MILITARY TODAY WARNED IT MIGHT BE FORCED TO INTERVENE. BUT ON WHOSE SIDE? AS IT DID IN THE UPRISING AGAINST HOSNI MUBARAK, THE EGYPTIAN ARMY HAS THUS FAR REMAINED LARGELY NEUTRAL BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT AND THE PROTESTERS. BUT IF PRESIDENT MORSI WAS TO NOW ORDER THE ARMY TO INTERVENE ON HIS BEHALF, THAT WILL BE A REAL GAME-CHANGER. AMID RUMOURS THE PRESIDENT WAS AT LEAST PREPARING TO AMEND THE NEW CONSTITUTION, ALL EGYPTIANS TONIGHT, THE ARMY INCLUDED, WERE STILL PREPARING FOR MORE TROUBLE. THE GOVERNMENT SAYS A REFERENDUM ON THE NEW DRAFT CONSTITUTION WILL STILL GO AHEAD NEXT WEEK. FORMER ITALIAN PRIME MINISTER SILVIO BERLUSCONI PLANS TO RUN FOR A FIFTH TERM IN OFFICE. MR BERLUSCONI, WHO WAS EMBROILED IN A SERIES OF HIGHLY PUBLICISED SEX SCANDALS WHILE IN OFFICE, INSISTS HE MADE THE DECISION OUT OF A SENSE OF RESPONSIBILITY. CURRENT PRIME MINISTER MARIO MONTTI SAYS HE WILL STEP DOWN AS SOON AS HE HAS A NEW BUDGET PASSED. MR BERLUSCONI'S LIBERTY PARTY WITHDREW SUPPORT FOR MR MONTTI'S GOVERNMENT TWO DAYS AGO.. CLAIMING ITS POLICIES WERE HARMING ITALY. FORMER SOUTH AFRICAN PRESIDENT NELSON MANDELA HAS BEEN ADMITTED TO A MILITARY HOSPITAL IN PRETORIA FOR TESTS. MR MANDELA, WHO'S 94, IS FRAIL AND IT'S HIS THIRD HOSPITALISATION IN RECENT YEARS. EARLIER THIS YEAR HE WAS TREATED FOR A LONG STANDING STOMACH COMPLAINT. KOREAN RAPPER PSY'S WORLDWIDE HIT, 'GANGNAM STYLE' MADE HIM A HOUSEHOLD NAME IN AMERICA WITH A FLURRY OF TV APPEARANCES IN AMERICA. BUT HE'S FOUND HIMSELF IN HOT WATER THERE AFTER HIS ANTI-AMERICAN PAST WAS REVEALED. THE ABC'S MUHAMMAD LILA HAS THE STORY. # OPPAN GANGNAM-STYLE. # HE'S THE STAR CREATOR OF THE MOST- WATCHED YOU TUBE VIDEO OF ALL TIME. NOW KOREAN RAPPER PSY IS FIGHTING OFF CONTROVERSY. IT HAS TO DO WITH THIS. IN 2004, AFTER A KOREAN MISSIONARY WAS KILLED IN IRAQ, PSY PERFORMED AT A PROTEST CONCERT, SINGING ALONG TO ANOTHER BAND SONG CALLED 'DEAR, AMERICAN', INCLUDING THESE LYRICS. IF YOU WERE SITTING AROUND MAKING UP HORRIBLE THINGS THAT A POP STAR COULD SAY THAT COULD GET THEM INTO TROUBLE, YOU'D HAVE A HARD TIME COMING UP WITH WORSE THINGS THAN THAT. BUT IT TURNS OUT PSY IS NO STRANGER TO CONTROVERSY. AFTER TWO KOREANS WERE KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT WITH A US TANK, HE PERFORMED AT A CONCERT WHERE HE SMASHED A MODEL US TANK IN RESPONSE. FOR PSY, IT'S A P.R. NIGHTMARE. HE'S MADE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS FROM 'GANGNAM STYLE', BECOMING SO POPULAR, HE HEADLINED THIS YEAR'S AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS, MADE A VIDEO WITH HEIDI KLUM. HE'S EVEN APPEARED ON 'ELLEN' AND 'THE VIEW', AND EVEN 'THE TONIGHT SHOW' IN FRONT OF AMERICAN SERVICEMEN AND WOMEN. (SINGS IN KOREAN) NOW HE'S DISTANCING HIMSELF FROM THE CONTROVERSY, SAYING IN A STATEMENT... PSY IS DUE TO PERFORM FOR PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA AND HIS FAMILY AT A CHARITY CONCERT IN WASHINGTON TOMORROW. WEATHER TIME NOW. A FINE DAY FOR MOST, BUT THERE'S SOME RAIN IN THE FORECAST TOMORROW, KAREN? JUST FOR A FEW PLACES AS A WEAK FRONT MOVES IN. IT'LL BE MAINLY FINE AGAIN. GOT SENT PLENTY OF PHOTOS FROM CHRISTCHURCH TODAY ` QUITE A DISTINCT HALO AROUND THE SUN. THIS HAPPENS WHEN LIGHT FROM THE SUN, OR MOON, IS REFRACTED THROUGH ICE CRYSTALS WITHIN HIGH-LEVEL CLOUD, IN THIS CASE CIRROSTRATUS CLOUD. IF YOU SEE ONE OF THESE, IT CAN MEAN THAT THERE'S RAIN ON THE WAY, AND THERE IS SOME RAIN ON THE WAY FOR SOUTHERN PARTS OF THE SOUTH ISLAND TOMORROW, BUT IT PROBABLY WONT GET TO CANTERBURY UNTIL LATE IN THE DAY. NOW TO OUR LIVE WEATHER CAMERAS. FOR WEATHER, SEE ONENEWS.CO.NZ I'LL HAVE THE FORECAST FOR MONDAY, AND A LOOK AT WHAT THE REST OF THE WEEK HAS IN STORE, AFTER SPORT. STILL TO COME ON ONE NEWS ` TORNADO-DAMAGED HOMES ARE HIT AGAIN. THIS TIME BY CRIMINALS. A WORLD WAR II MOSQUITO MAKES A RARE APPEARANCE IN OUR SKIES TO MARK A DAY THAT CHANGED THE WAR. AND IT'S SUNHATS AND SMILES AS THE SUMMER WEATHER ARRIVES JUST IN TIME FOR WELLINGTON'S SANTA PARADE. POLICE AND CIVIL DEFENCE ARE INCREASING SECURITY ON THE STREETS WORST HIT BY THURSDAY'S TORNADO AFTER LOOTERS INFILRATED THE CORDON. CIVIL DEFENCE SAY AT LEAST TWO BURGLARIES HAVE BEEN REPORTED. IT'S BELIEVED LOOTERS POSED AS CONTRACTORS TO GET THROUGH THE CORDON. THREE PEOPLE WERE KILLED AND HUNDREDS OF PROPERTIES DAMAGED AFTER THE TORNADO RIPPED THROUGH HOBSONVILLE AND WHENUAPAI IN WEST AUCKLAND. AVIATION ENTHUSIASTS WERE ALL ABUZZ IN SOUTH AUCKLNAD TODAY AS A RARE WWII MOSQUITO TOOK TO THE SKIES. THE NZ WARBIRDS ASSOCIATION PUT ON THE SHOW TO MARK THE 71ST ANNIVERSARY OF THE BOMBING OF PEARL HARBOUR. DAMIAN CHRISTIE WENT ALONG. PLANE SPOTTERS ARE A DIVERSE BUNCH, FROM THE YOUNG TO THE YOUNG AT HEART. FRIEND, FOE, TODAY ALL COME TOGETHER AND LOOK TO THE SKIES. # AND I'M FREE # FREE-FALLING # AND BEHIND THE STUNTS? NOT YOUNG THRILLSEEKERS, BUT CAPABLE OLDER HANDS. IT'S GREAT TO BE OUT HERE AND SHOW OFF OUR AIRCRAFT TO THE PUBLIC AND ENJOY OURSELVES OVER OUR OWN AIRFIELD. IT'S A BUZZ, A BIG BUZZ. AND THERE'S A SPECIAL TREAT TODAY ` JUST THE SECOND PUBLIC OUTING OF THE WORLD'S ONLY MOSQUITO STILL FLYING. RESTORED RIGHT HERE IN NZ, JUST ONE MORE SHOW AFTER THIS AND IT'LL BE HEADING TO ITS NEW HOME IN THE U.S. IT'S OBVIOUSLY A CROWD-PLEASER. I'VE BEEN VERY PREVILEGED. I'VE SAT IN THE MOSQUITO, I'VE TAKEN WONDERFUL PHOTOGRAPHS, I'VE TALKED TO THE OWNER. AND IF WATCHING IT'S A TREAT, FLYING IT IS SOMETHING ELSE AGAIN. IT'S A HUGE HONOUR TO FLY THE AREOPLANE. THERE'S BEEN SUCH A HUGE AMOUNT OF WORK AND RESEARCH AND EFFORT GONE INTO TO GETTING IT HERE TODAY, AND TO BE ABLE TO FLY IT IS JUST THE ICING ON THE CAKE, IT REALLY IS. YOU'RE SITTING THERE BETWEEN A COUPLE OF SPITFIRE ENGINES ON THIS GREAT ELEVATED THRONE. THERE'S A GREAT VIEW OUT THE FRONT THERE, AND IT'S PRETTY FAST SO THE SCENERY UNFOLDS QUITE RAPIDLY. IT'S JUST A GREAT AMBIENCE. AS THE SAYING GOES, IT'S A TOUGH JOB, BUT SOMEONE'S GOT TO DO IT. DAMIAN CHRISTIE, ONE NEWS. EXCITEMENT LEVELS WERE FLYING HIGH IN WELLINGTON THIS AFTERNOON WITH THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE LINING THE STREETS FOR THE CITY'S CHRISTMAS PARADE. THE CAPITAL TURNED ON THE SUNSHINE FOR AN ARRAY OF FLOATS, FROM CARTOON CHARACTERS TO CHRISTMAS CLASSICS. BUT IT WAS ONE VERY JOLLY PERSON IN PARTICULAR ONLOOKERS WERE MOST EAGER TO SEE. SANTA CLAUS. SANTA! SANTA CLAUS! HELLO, BOYS AND GIRLS! OH, YOU'RE SPECIAL IN THE SUN TODAY, AREN'T YOU? MEANWHILE, CHRISTMAS CAME ALIVE FOR CHILDREN VISITING AN INTERACTIVE NATIVITY SCENE AT PETONE'S BAPTIST CHURCH. LOOKING AT OUR TOP STORIES TONIGHT. POLICE ARE SPEAKING TO THREE PEOPLE AFTER AN ARMED DRUGS RAID NEAR THE NORTH ISLAND TOWN OF KATIKATI CAME TO AN EXPLOSIVE END. NEARBY HOMES WERE EVACUATED AS FLAMES ENGULFED AN OLD FACTORY. POLICE WON'T SAY IF IT WAS A P LAB. IT'S BEEN REVEALED DOCTORS ARE ACCEPTING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS' WORTH OF GIFTS AND TRAVEL FROM INTERNATIONAL DRUG COMPANIES, AND SOME DHBs HAVE EVEN ACCEPTED SO-CALLED CASH 'DONATIONS'. THE TWO BIGGEST RECIPIENTS ARE CAPITAL AND COAST AND COUNTIES MANUKAU. THE MEDICAL COUNCIL SAYS DRUG COMPANIES HELP DOCTORS ACCESS USEFUL TRAINING. FAMILIES OF THOSE WHO DIED IN THE CHRISTCHURCH EARTHQUAKE SAY THEY'RE COMFORTED BY THE CONTENTS OF THE FINAL PART OF THE REPORT INTO THE COLLAPSE OF THE CTV BUILDING. THE FINDINGS BY THE CANTERBURY EARTHQUAKE ROYAL COMMISSION WILL BE RELEASED TO THE PUBLIC TOMORROW. ANDREW'S HERE WITH SPORT, AND THE BLACKCAPS CAPTAINCY ISSUE FILTERS DOWN TO GRASS ROOTS. WE'LL HAVE MORE NEXT ON THE FIGHT CRICKET HAS ON ITS HANDS TO WIN BACK SUPPORT. ALSO, SOME TIMELY ADVICE FOR OFFICIALS FROM A COUPLE OF BLACKCAPS STALWARTS AND LONG-SUFFERING SUPPORTERS. PLUS THE WORLD'S BEST GO HEAD TO HEAD ON THE WANGANUI RIVER. CAN THE BLACK STICKS FINALLY COME GOOD IN MELBOURNE? AND COULD RYAN NELSEN SAVE HIS QPR TEAM FROM MORE EMBARRASMENT IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE? Drivers on drugs ` there could be more of them on our roads than you think. To find out how NZers feel about it, over four days we filmed 147 people who thought they were being driven to a costume fitting for a TV ad. Hello. What they didn't realise was the drivers were actually actors who were faking driving on drugs. I'm on these prescription meds. It's all right. I've just finished off the last of my P, so we will be sweet as. I must say, I have just dropped an Ecce, so I` I must say, I have just dropped an Ecce, so I` What?! I've just finished off this joint. I've just gotta... Hidden cameras captured all the real and sometimes hard-to-watch footage. < (SIGHS) Yeah. < That's the good thing about that P. It gets you going, eh? Keeps you going all night. You all right, man? Should we be, uh, concerned? Are you all right to drive, bro? Are you all right to drive, bro? (SIGHS) Should be all right if you're all right. Well, I dunno. I don't really know you. Like, if you're off your head, I don't really want to be driving with ya. Do you want one of us to drive? I think I might just get out. CAR DOOR OPENS CAR DOOR OPENS Do you want to come or stay? What are you doing? Are you all right? Uh, don't mind if I take it slowly. I'm just, uh... Still waking? Still waking? I'm just a bit baked right now, quite frankly. (SIGHS) I'm just gonna, um, let this buzz just wear off and, uh` Are you feeling sick? Are you feeling sick? No, no. Quite the opposite. Don't you worry. Quite the opposite. (SIGHS) All righty. I've just` just been round at my mate's place this morning. I just finished off some weed just before we` we came round, so I'm in a good head space, so don't you worry. so don't you worry. Well, um, I don't know if that's very good. Neither of you got any food on you, by any chance, do you? Neither of you got any food on you, by any chance, do you? Got the munchies, bro? (CHUCKLES) (CHUCKLES) Do you know where you're going? I think you might need to go back. It's a good ride. It's a good ride. Might be best if you pull over. I think I might just get out. Do you want me to pull over? Do you want me to pull over? Yeah. I don't think this is very professional. Oh, OK. Well, hold on. Um... No. Not good at all. 32% of those surveyed said it's safe to drive high. FIRST UP TONIGHT ` TO CRICKET, AS ANGER BUILDS IN THE GAME OVER THE HANDLING OF ROSS TAYLOR. FORMER CAPTAIN MARTIN CROWE HAS CALLED FOR MASS SACKINGS. OTHER PLAYERS AND FANS ARE ALSO TRYING TO FATHOM WHAT'S HAPPENING TO THEIR GAME. GRASS-ROOTS CLUB CRICKET TODAY IN WEST AUCKLAND, AND THERE'S DEEP CONCERN OVER WHAT THE LAST WEEK HAS DONE TO THE GAME. IT'S CRUCIAL THAT THEY TRY AND GET IT RIGHT AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. IT COULD HAVE BEEN HANDLED BETTER. LET'S HOPE THEY LEARN FROM IT, WE MOVE ON, AND THIS SITUATION DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. HARRIS' FORMER LONG-TIME TEAMMATE CRAIG MCMILLAN WAS PLAYING FOR CHARITY TODAY FURTHER SOUTH IN CHRISTCHURCH, BUT WAS FAR FROM CHARITABLE TOWARDS OFFICIALS. NO ONE'S HAPPY WITH HOW IT'S GONE DOWN. IT'S BEEN A PR DISASTER. ROSS TAYLOR HASN'T BEEN WELL-TREATED, AND NZ CRICKET REALLY NEED TO SORT OUT THEIR MESS AT THE TOP. TALKING TO A LOT OF EX-PLAYERS OVER THAT WEEK ` JUST CAN'T BELIEVE HOW IT'S BEEN HANDLED. LONG-SUFFERING CRICKET FANS ARE STILL SEETHING OVER THE DAMAGE DONE AND THE WAY ROSS TAYLOR'S BEEN HANDLED. I THINK ULTIMATELY HE SHOULD BE GIVEN A LOT MORE RESPECT THAN HE HAS BEEN. WE'VE GOT A BATTING COACH ` BUT WE CAN'T PLAY SPIN. AND IT'S BECOME LAUGHABLE. I'VE SEEN MORE CRICKET, EVEN HERE TODAY, WITH PASSION, PLAYING FROM THE HEART, WITH THESE GUYS THAN THE PROFESSIONALS. THERE SEEMS TO BE TOO MUCH OF THIS RATHER PERFORMING OUT IN THE MIDDLE. DESPITE THE ADMINISTRATION SHOOTING ITSELF IN THE FOOT, PLAYING NUMBERS HAVE RISEN BY 10,000 IN THE LAST FIVE YEARS. THERE'S BELIEF TALENT IS AROUND. THE FAST BOWLING STOCKS, THE BEST YOUNG FAST BOWLERS AROUND AND THE AMOUNT OF THEM THAT I'VE SEEN IN A VERY LONG TIME. PERHAPS NOT EVER IN NZ CRICKET'S HISTORY. ALTHOUGH A TRIP TO SOUTH AFRICA COULD DO EVEN MORE DAMAGE. TO GO TO SOUTH AFRICA WITHOUT ARGUABLY YOUR BEST BATSMAN ` IT'S GONNA BE A VERY BIG ASK FOR THE BLACKCAPS. OUR NATIONAL ANTHEM, GOD DEFEND NZ ` THEY'LL NEED MORE THAN GOD WHEN THEY PLAY SOUTH AFRICA, SIR. DISILLUSIONED CRICKET FANS NOW WAIT TO SEE IF BRENDON MCCULLUM CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. MAYBE THE CAPTAINCY DRAMA IS AFFECTING SENIOR PLAYERS, AS MARTIN GUPTILL WAS TOTALLY OUT OF SORTS IN THE BIG BASH LAST NIGHT. WHILE HE APPEARED AT HOME WITH THE BIGGER BALL, GUPTILL MADE AN ORDINARY JOB OF FILLING IN FOR CHRIS GAYLE AS THE SYDNEY THUNDER FACED THE SYDNEY SIXERS. GUPTILL'S GOTTA GET GOING. HE'S 15 OFF 21, HE'S POKING AROUND. I THINK HE'S GOTTA BE A BIT MORE POSITIVE, REALLY GO AFTER THE BOWLING. HE'S JUST LOOKING TO NURDLE THE BALL. LOOKING TO FIND SOME FORM AFTER FAILING IN SRI LANKA, HE ONLY MANAGED ONE BOUNDARY IN HIS PEDESTRIAN 20 OFF 27 BALLS. HIS ONE-OFF APPEARANCE ENDED IN THE 11TH OVER AS THE SIXERS CRUISED TO A SEVEN WICKET VICTORY. CANTERBURY PITCHER PENESE LOSEFO HAS OVERCOME THE PAIN BARRIER TO MAKE THE BLACK SOX TEAM FOR THIS SUMMER'S WORLD SOFTBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS. YO-SEFO SUFFERED FRACTURED RIBS AND A HEAD INJURY IN A CAR ACCIDENT LAST MONTH, AND DID MORE DAMAGE TODAY. HERE'S STEPHEN STUART. JUST GETTING TO THE NATIONAL PROVINCIAL COMPETITION AT ALBANY WAS SOME EFFORT BY PENESE IOSEFO, AND THEN HE INJURED HIS GROIN BEFORE TODAY'S FINAL AGAINST AUCKLAND WHICH HAD THRASHED THE CANTERBURY RED SOX 9-2 IN POOL PLAY. ALTHOUGH HE WAS HINDERED, IOSEFA DIDN'T GIVE UP ANY RUNS AGAINST AUCKLAND. AND JOSH THOMPSON'S MIDFIELD DRIVE IN THE FIFTH INNINGS PRODUCED A SHOCK 2-0 WIN MAKING IT ALL WORTHWHILE FOR IOSEFA, WHO WAS THEN CONFIRMED IN HIS FIRST WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP SQUAD. I'VE GOT A BIT OF A MASSAGE, STUCK TO MY GUNS, AND CAME BACK. SHOULDER SURGERY KEPT HUTT VALLEY'S RHYS CASLEY FROM THE TOURNAMENT, BUT HE WAS CONFIRMED TO LEAD A TEAM STACKED WITH EXPERIENCE. THERE'S A COUPLE OF GUYS COMING BACK AFTER A BIT OF A LAY-OFF, BUT OBVIOUSLY A LOT OF YOUTH IN THERE AS WELL. SO I THINK WE'VE GOT A GOOD BALANCE, AND IT'S PRETTY EXCITING FOR ALL OF THEM. QUEENSLAND-BORN INFIELDER TYRON BARTORILLO SHARED IN CANTERBURY'S TRIUMPH, AND WAS NAMED IN THE BLACK SOX THREE YEARS AFTER HE HELPED AUSTRALIA BEAT NZ IN THE LAST WORLD CHAMPS. HERE'S SHANNON. IT'S A BIT OF A COUP FOR US TO GET HIM IN OUR TEAM. HE'S LIVED HERE FOR FIVE OR SIX YEARS NOW. DO YOU AUSSIES STILL WANT HIM? OH, CERTAINLY. BUT WHEN HE PLEDGED HIS ALLIGIENCE TO NZ, HE BECAME ENEMY NUMBER ONE FOR THEM. THE 17-MAN SQUAD WILL RETURN TO THIS VENUE FOR THE WORLD CHAMPS IN MARCH. STEPHEN STUART, ONE NEWS. IOSEFO IS ONE OF FOUR PITCHERS NAMED, INCLUDING USA-BASED JEREMY MANLEY AND TWO CATCHERS. AND SOME REAL VETERANS IN THE FIELD, INCLUDING BRAD RONA, WHO FLIRTED WITH BASEBALL LAST YEAR, AND THOMAS MAKEA AND JARRAD MARTIN, WHO RETURN FOR THEIR FIFTH WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS. MAHE DRYSDALE'S BEATEN A HOST OF OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALLISTS TO DEFEND HIS TITLE IN ROWING'S BILLY WEBB CHALLENGE ON THE WANGANUI RIVER THIS AFTERNOON. THE OLYMPIC SINGLE SCULLS CHAMPION FENDED OFF FELLOW GOLD MEDAL WINNER NATHAN COHEN TO WIN THE 5KM RACE, WITH SWEDEN'S LASSI KARONEN COMING IN THIRD. COHEN'S OLYMPIC DOUBLE SCULLS PARTNER JOSEPH SULLIVAN CAME IN FIFTH, JUST BEHIND ERIC MURRAY. I KNEW THAT IF I GET IN FRONT THAT HOPEFULLY THEY THOUGHT THAT` THEY MIGHT THINK THAT I WAS GONE, BUT, YOU KNOW, IT WASN'T EASY, AND, YOU KNOW, I WAS ACTUALLY SURPRISED ` I DIDN'T KNOW IF I WAS GOING TO DIE, AND I STARTED DYING TOWARDS THE END. AND, YOU KNOW, THANKFULLY NATHAN DIDN'T QUITE HAVE ENOUGH TO GET THROUGH. DRYSDALE HOPES TO MAKE A DECISION ABOUT HIS LONG-TERM ROWING FUTURE BY THE END OF THE MONTH. NZ HAS CRASHED TO FIJI IN POOL PLAY AT THE SOUTH AFRICAN RUGBY SEVENS IN PORT ELIZABETH. CAPTAIN DJ FORBES WAS SIDELINED AFTER BEING FLATTENED BY SCOTLAND. NZ STARTED WELL ENOUGH AGAINST FIJI WITH LUKE MASIREWA CLAIMING HIS FIRST SEVENS TRY, BUT FIJI TOOK CHARGE IN THE SECOND HALF WITH THREE TRIES TO WIN 24-12. BOTIYA WILL DRIVE... AND SCORE! THE CHARGE NOW OF TUQIRI. TUQIRI GOES, AND SCORES! WELL, FIJI LOVE ATTACKING FROM INSIDE THEIR OWN 22. AND AWAY THEY GO. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. IT'S GOING TO BE A CERTAIN WIN NOW. JOHN STUART, COMING ON AS A REPLACEMENT, GETS THE CRUCIAL TRY. NZ WILL NOW FACE WALES IN THE QUARTER FINALS LATER TONIGHT. THE BREAKERS ARE CLINGING TO THE TOP OF THE AUSTRALIAN NBL LADDER AFTER SUFFERING THEIR THIRD DEFEAT OF THE SEASON, LOSING TO THE KINGS IN SYDNEY. THE DEFENDING CHAMPS LOOKED OUT OF SORTS, WITH NO RESPONSE TO KINGS POINT GUARD CORIN HENRY. HENRY'S SLIPPED OVER. SOMEHOW MANAGED TO REGATHER THE BASKETBALL. AND GO ALL THE WAY! HE DOES. THE BREAKERS WEREN'T HELPED BY AMERICAN WILL HUDSON BEING FORCED OFF AFTER COPPING A STRAY ELBOW TO THE HEAD. NO DOUBT HE'S NOT THE ONLY ONE HURTING TODAY ` FINAL SCORE 75-62. THE BREAKERS NEXT PLAY CAIRNS AT HOME ON THURSDAY. TO FOOTBALL, AND THE WELLINGTON PHOENIX HAVE SUFFERED AN UPSET LOSS TODAY, 2-1 TO BOTTOM-OF-THE-TABLE SYDNEY FC. BUT FIRST TO THE ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE, AND ALL WHITES SKIPPER RYAN NELSEN LED FROM THE FRONT FOR QUEENS PARK RANGERS, BUT COULD HE TAKE THEM TO THEIR FIRST VICTORY OF THE SEASON? MARK HATHAWAY REPORTS. A PERFECTLY TIMED RUN FROM RYAN NELSEN GAVE QPR PRECIOUS HOPE. OH, IT'S A GOAL, RYAN NELSEN! THE ALL WHITES CAPTAIN'S FIRST EPL GOAL SINCE SCORING FOR TOTTENHAM IN MARCH, DRAWING QPR LEVEL WITH WIGAN. THAT IS A BRILLIANT, BRILLIANT HEADER. DESPERATION WAS CLEAR ON NELSEN'S FACE. A DRAW WOULDN'T DO, AS HIS SIDE WAS WINLESS AFTER THE FIRST 15 MATCHES OF THE SEASON. CISSE CALLING FOR IT ` AND HERE IS CISSE! DJIBRIL CISSE NOT COUNTING ANY CHICKENS, AND RIGHTLY SO. STILL A LOT OF WORK HERE FOR QPR, AND THEY CAN'T HOLD ON FOR LONG. DEFEAT LOOKING IMMINENT, FRUSTRATION CREPT IN AGAIN FOR NELSEN, KEPT BUSY BY WIGAN'S ATTACK. IS THAT NELSEN YET AGAIN? FINAL SCORE 2-2, QPR SETTING THE EPL RECORD FOR THE LONGEST SEQUENCE AT THE START OF A SEASON WITHOUT A WIN, THEIR FANS NEEDING AS MANY SWEETENERS AS POSSIBLE. CHELSEA, ON THE OTHER HAND, BREAKING STREAKS AGAINST SUNDERLAND ` FERNANDO TORRES WITH HIS FIRST EPL GOAL SINCE OCTOBER. AND WHEN IT RAINS, IT POURS ` SEBASTIAN LARSSON'S TACKLING LEADING TO A PENALTY, TORRES WITH THE HONOURS. THE SPANIARD ALMOST MAKING IT THREE, JUAN MATA CLEARING UP THE DREGS. ADAM JOHNSON PULLED ONE BACK FOR SUNDERLAND, BUT THEY DROP INTO THE RELEGATION ZONE, THE 3-1 WIN CHELSEA'S FIRST IN EIGHT EPL OUTINGS. AND IN THE A LEAGUE, BOTTOM-OF-THE-TABLE SYDNEY FC RATTLED THE PHOENIX IN INJURY TIME OF THE FIRST HALF IN WELLINGTON. THINGS WENT FROM BAD TO WORSE IN THE SECOND HALF. A LATE PENALTY AT THE BEGINNING OF 4 MINUTES OF INJURY PLAY GIVING THE PHOENIX A LIFELINE TO A DRAW. BUT AN UNDESERVED WIN WOULDN'T EVENTUATE FOR THE PHOENIX, THE 2-1 LOSS PUTTING THEM IN A CONGESTED MID-TABLE MIRE. MARK HATHAWAY, ONE NEWS. IT'S BEEN A HORROR START TO THE FINAL ROUND OF THE AUSTRALIAN GOLF OPEN FOR OVERNIGHT LEADER JOHN SENDEN. AFTER LONG WIND DELAYS AT THE LAKES, THE AUSTRALIAN DOUBLE-BOGEYED THE FIRST HOLE, TO GIVE UP HIS TWO SHOT LEAD. OOH. THAT IS... WOW. WOW, THAT'S UP NEAR THE NINTH FAIRWAY. ENGLAND'S JUSTIN ROSE HAS ALSO DROPPED TWO SHOTS. SENDEN NOW WITH A ONE-SHOT LEAD THROUGH THE FOURTH HOLE. IT'S BEEN A WINNING DAY FOR OUR NATIONAL HOCKEY TEAMS. THE WOMEN'S BLACK STICKS HAVE BEATEN INDIA 3-1 IN THEIR SECOND TEST IN NAPIER THIS AFTERNOON. AND THE MEN HAVE FINALLY MANAGED A WIN AT THE CHAMPION'S TROPHY IN MELBOURNE, BEATING ENGLAND IN GOLDEN-GOAL EXTRA TIME IN THEIR PLAYOFF FOR SEVENTH AND EIGHTH. ENGLAND CAME BACK FROM ONE GOAL DOWN TO TAKE A 2-1 ADVANTAGE, BEFORE THIS STUNNER FROM NICK WILSON SAW THE BLACK STICKS EQUALISE. WILSON! HE BEATS THE KEEPER AND DOES EQUALISE ON THE REVERSE STICK. THE SCORE 2-2 AT THE END OF REGULATION PLAY. STEVEN EDWARDS THEN PULLED OUT THIS MASTERFUL BEHIND-THE-BACK MOVE TO FORCE A PENALTY CORNER FOR THE KS JUST BEFORE THE BREAK IN EXTRA TIME. IT'S TAPPED IN AND NZ WIN THE GAME OFF THE WILSON DEFLECTION. IT'S NZ'S FIRST AND ONLY WIN IN THE TOURNAMENT. THEIR SEVENTH-PLACE FINISH MEANS THEY'LL HAVE TO HOPE FOR A WILD CARD TO COMPETE IN NEXT YEAR'S CHAMPION'S TROPHY. THANKS, ANDREW. AFTER THE BREAK, KAREN SAYS THERE'S PLENTY OF SUNSHINE TOMORROW, BUT A FEW PLACES WILL GET WET. AND WE MEET A FAMILY OF FOUR CANCER SURVIVORS WHO AREN'T LETTING LIFE'S CHALLENGES STOP THEM FROM GIVING BACK. Welcome to the crash test lab, where we work hard to see which cars have the best safety performance. Whoo! The more stars, the safer the cars. So go on. Check safety first at our cracking new website. DEFINITELY FELT LIKE SUMMER TODAY IN MANY AREAS. MORE OF THE SAME FOR MOST OF TOMORROW. HERE'S THE VIEW FROM SATELLITE. LOTS OF BLUE SKY OVER US. THIS CLOUD OVER SOIUTH-EASTERN PARTS MOVED OFF TOWARDS THE CHATHAM ISLANDS. MOSTLY CLEAR IN THE TASMAN, BUT A NARROW BAND OF CLOUD MARKS A COLD FRONT, AND IT'S HEADING OUR WAY. SHOULD MAKE LANDFALL IN THE FAR SOUTH AROUND LUNCHTIME AND THEN WEAKEN AS IT STRUGGLES NORTHWARDS. HIGH REMAINS IN CHARGE OVER THE NORTH ISLAND, KEEPING IT FINE AND SETTLED THERE. ANOTHER BUBBLE OF HIGH PRESSURE PUSHES IN BEHIND THE FRONT, CENTRED NEAR TASMANIA. CLOUDY SKIES, SOME DRIZZLE IN THE WEST OF THE SOUTH ISLAND. FRONTAL RAIN SPREADING ON TO SOUTHERN PARTS IN THE MORNING AND THEN GRADUALLY HEADING NORTH DURING THE AFTERNOON. GOOD CLEARANCE IN BEHIND THAT FRONT. IT STAYS FINE AND DRY IN THE NORTH-EAST. LIGHT WINDS. VERY SUMMERY DAY OVER THE NORTH ISLAND WITH THE HIGH PRESSURE IN CHARGE. PLENTY OF BLUE SKY. WINDS WILL BE MAINLY LIGHT. BUT A FRESHENING NORTHERLY ABOUT COOK STRAIT. FOR WEATHER, SEE ONENEWS.CO.NZ FOR WEATHER, SEE ONENEWS.CO.NZ THAT'S ALL I HAVE FOR YOU TONIGHT. NOW BACK TO PETER AND BERNIE. TONIGHT'S GOOD SORT IS A CHRISTCHURCH MOTHER OF TWO WHO CONSIDERS HERSELF LUCKY. MARILYN HORE'S FAMILY HAVE HAD THEIR FAIR SHARE OF ILL FORTUNE OVER THE YEARS, BUT SHE'S SAYS THEY'VE BEEN BLESSED, AND NOW THEY'RE BLESSING OTHERS. HADYN JONES HAS HER STORY. ROOM... ALL: 12 ...AT ILAM PRIMARY SCHOOL ARE AT THAT AGE WHERE THE CAMERA IS THEIR FRIEND. LOOKS LIKE A CAMERA. THEIR OTHER FRIEND IS MARILYN HORE. SHE'S A TEACHER AIDE WHO HELPS JUBAI WITH HIS SCHOOL ACTIVITIES. RUNNING, RUNNING, RUNNING. OVER THE TOP. THIS IS SLIGHTLY EXHAUSTING. JUBAI DOESN'T CARRY HIS OWN WEIGHT, BUT HE'S BENEFITING GREATLY FROM WHAT HE'S DOING. ONCE THAT'S OVER,.. WE HAVE TO CATCH UP TO DAISY. ...MARILYN'S DAY IS REALLY JUST BEGINNING. HER DAUGHTER MEGAN NEEDS A LIFT HOME, AS DOES HER HUSBAND, RICHARD, WHO WORKS THE REST-HOME CIRCUIT. # DID YOU EVER KNOW THAT YOU'RE MY HERO? # RICHARD'S A CROONER, A ROMANTIC, AND HE'S BLIND. HE CONTRACTED A RARE EYE CANCER CALLED RETINOBLASTOMA. IT MEANS MARILYN HAS TO HELP BACKSTAGE. EVEN BEFORE WE GOT MARRIED, I WAS HIS ROADIE. MARILYN AND RICHARD ALWAYS WANTED TO HAVE TWO CHILDREN, BUT THEY CERTAINLY HAD TO BE PATIENT. EIGHT PREGNANCIES AND SIX YEARS LATER, WE FINALLY HAD AMY. BUT AT 15 WEEKS OLD, SHE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER, AND THAT REALLY BLEW US AWAY. AND SIX YEARS MINUS A DAY LATER, WE HAD MEGAN. AND, UNFORTUNATELY, AT 48-HOURS-OLD, WAS ALSO DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER. THE CANCER WAS INADVERTENTLY PASSED TO THE KIDS. WE COULD HAVE SAT BACK, 'OH, LOOK, RICHARD HAS RETINOBLASTOMA.' 'WE ARE NOT GOING TO HAVE CHILDREN.' BUT LOOK WHAT WE WOULD HAVE MISSED OUT ON. MARILYN KNOWS A BIT ABOUT CANCER TREATMENT. I, MANY YEARS AGO, HAD CANCER. YES. BUT SHE DOESN'T CONSIDER HER OR HER FAMILY UNLUCKY. I'VE GOT TWO DAUGHTERS. I GOT TO BRING THEM HOME, AND I'VE STILL GOT THEM. SOME OF THE FAMILIES WE HAVE MET IN HOSPITAL NEVER GOT THAT PRIVILEGE. THE GOOD NEWS IN THIS STORY IS THE HORES, AS A FAMILY, HAVE SURVIVED CANCER, ALL OF THEM. MARILYN SAYS HER CHILDREN'S ADVERSITY HAS BEEN A GOOD TEACHER. THEY ARE OUR INSPIRATION BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN TO HELL AND BACK. WE MAKE THE MOST OF THE GOOD STUFF BECAUSE IT'S THE GOOD STUFF THAT LIFE IS ALL ABOUT. HADYN JONES, ONE NEWS. AND THAT'S ONE NEWS THIS SUNDAY. FROM US AND ALL THE ONE NEWS TEAM, GOOD NIGHT. CAPTIONS BY ANNE LANGFORD AND SAM BRADFORD. CAPTIONS WERE MADE POSSIBLE WITH FUNDING FROM NZ ON AIR.
