1Hannibal Hayes is a legend in his own lifetime - a fearless chopper pilot who has probably saved more lives than anyone else in New Zealand. When a plane goes down in Antarctica, he is the man who leads the search; when a tramper is lost in Fiordland, he is likely to be first to the scene. But if you want to make a television piece about him, there is a problem: Hannibal Hayes never plays ball. Well, almost never. However, there is one person he can not refuse.

3Could David Ross be New Zealand's version of Bernie Madoff? He is being investigated for running what looks like a giant Ponzi scheme in the form of Ross Asset Management - taking hundreds of millions of dollars from New Zealand families, pretending to invest the money, but instead robbing Peter to pay Paul. The story is followed by a live studio interview with financial commentator Bernard Hickey.
