The Erebus Disaster

Former radio journalist John Blumsky (pictured left), was the only broadcast journalist sent to Antarctica to cover the Erebus crash for the world media. His reports, which were telephoned from the ice, included news on body recovery, salvage operations, strain at Scott Base, and a description of the crash scene.

Listen to news and reports about the Erebus disaster.

Maori Television

Sound Archives audio was used for Maori Television’s Waitangi 2008 coverage, in particular a profile piece on Sir Apirana Ngata.

Recordings were used in the second 13-part series of Te Pataka Korero broadcast on Maori Television’s 100% Māori Language channel on the digital platform. The programme concept involved playing archival audio recordings from last century and bringing in some of the original interviewers to talk about the recordings in a studio-based environment/set.
