Local line up leading prime time

Local line up leading prime time

Stratos is known for featuring some of the best documentaries, current
affairs and international dramas but their new series of kiwi shows has got
everyone talking - literally.

Stratos presents a series of kiwi shows every night at 7:30pm showcasing
prominent New Zealanders and discussing issues local communities face which
often go unnoticed.

Included in the line up is Pacific Viewpoint on Wednesdays at 7:30pm. This
is a hard hitting show focussing on the problems the Pacific community deals
with everyday. No topics are off limits with the panel discussing everything
from the role of the church to the effects of the welfare system on
Polynesians as well as the changing family structure.

Stratos also features In Conversation with Noel Cheer on Monday nights and
The Beatson Interview with David Beatson on Tuesdays which has one on one
interviews with fascinating personalities and tackles the hard questions
when speaking with the decision makers of our society.

For a slice of political and social satire look no further than Citizen A
with Martyn 'Bomber' Bradbury every Friday night at 7:30pm. With a revolving
panel of big city bloggers and guests, Bomber mercilessly reviews current
political media issues with no politician or party left unscathed.

There is something for everyone on Stratos' local line up, but if you're
after a bit of foreign flavour Stratos serves up a growing collection of
international shows:
