    CONVENIENT FICTIONS: THE SCRIPT OF LESBIAN DESIRE IN THE POST-ELLEN ERA. A NEW ZEALAND PERSPECTIVE By Alison Julie Hopkins A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2009 Acknowledgements I would like to acknowledge those people who have supported me in my endeavour to complete this thesis. In particular, I would like to thank Dr Alison Laurie and Dr Lesley Hall, for their guidance and expertise, and Dr Tony Schirato for his insights, all of which were instrumental in the completion of my study. I would also like to express my gratitude to all of those people who participated in the research, in particular Mark Pope, facilitator of the ‘School’s Out’ programme, the staff at LAGANZ, and the staff at the photographic archive of The Alexander Turnbull Library. I would also like to acknowledge the support of The Chief Censor, Bill Hastings, and The Office of Film and Literature Classification, throughout this study. Finally, I would like to thank my most ardent supporters, Virginia, Darcy, and Mo. ii Abstract Little has been published about the ascending trajectory of lesbian characters in prime-time television texts. Rarer still are analyses of lesbian fictions on New Zealand television. This study offers a robust and critical interrogation of Sapphic expression found in the New Zealand television landscape. More specifically, this thesis analyses fictional lesbian representation found in New Zealand’s prime-time, free-to-air television environment. It argues that television’s script of lesbian desire is more about illusion than inclusion, and that lesbian representation is a misnomer, both qualitatively and quantitively.

  • Maori Miners
    MAORI AND MINING IN NEW ZEALAND AND BEYOND Philip Hart Te Aroha Mining District Working Papers No. 17 2016 Historical Research Unit Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences The University of Waikato Private Bag 3105 Hamilton, New Zealand ISSN: 2463-6266 © 2016 Philip Hart Contact: [email protected] 1 MAORI AND MINING IN NEW ZEALAND AND BEYOND Abstract: Before the arrival of Europeans, Maori had known of the existence of gold but did not mine it and had no understanding of its value. Once mining commenced in California in 1849 and Australia in the early 1850s, many Maori participated on several fields, especially in Victoria. When gold was first discovered in New Zealand, at Coromandel in 1852, Maori were keen to learn prospecting skills, and soon found gold in several parts of both the North and South Islands. Some alluvial claims were worked communally, even some women participating. From the start, Maori were determined to protect their rights against Pakeha when they were rivals for the same ground. On the Hauraki Peninsula, which had no alluvial gold, Maori were prospectors rather than miners. Some were successful, often going against the wishes of rangatira who, fearing that opening goldfields would result in their losing their land, refused access to prospectors, particularly in Ohinemuri. At Thames, Maori prospectors succeeded where Pakeha ones had failed, finding the gold that led to the 1867 rush; a rush encouraged by one rangatira in particular, Wirope Hoterene Taipari, who understood how a successful field would benefit him financially (including obtaining a reward for discovering a payable goldfield).

  • Mystery Billboards Baffle Cromwell Locals
    ISSUE 852 | 23RD JUNE 2021 Subway® Catering for any occasion. Subway® Cromwell ©2020 Subway IP LLC. Subway® is a registered trademark of Subway IP LLC. Mystery billboards baffle Cromwell locals By Jan Hawkins Who is Jill? Who is Alison? What is the gossip on Chris the Cheat? And does he really have 5 wives? This seems to be the topic of the day as new billboards appear on Barry Avenue. It seems many locals are not familiar with hash tags, as the ‘#ChrisIsACheat’ in the bottom corner of the board should have been a clue. If that means nothing to you, perhaps the jersey worn by one of my lovely photo models may prompt your thinking, espe- cially if you can remember the early days of New Zealand’s popular television soap. Tickets for Fine Thyme Theatre Com- pany’s next production are now on sale. Shortland Street - the Musical promises to be a ‘fast-paced comedic romp filled with song, scandal, intrigue, love, muffins, and plenty of cliffhangers’. The musical is based on the first three episodes of the long-running series, way back in 1992, but it comes with a warning that it is ‘not your Mother’s Shortland Street’. Committee member Brigitte Tait, who also plays Carrie in the musical, says, “It’s been a real privilege to be working with such a community of talented cast and crew.

  • Interview with Michael Galvin, Grey Lynn, 23 October 1996 with Peter Feeney
    Interview with Michael Galvin, Grey Lynn, 23 October 1996 With Peter Feeney I kicked off the interview by showing Michael a letter I had received from my very own fan: a woman who worked in a shop on Ponsonby Road: a pathetic sample of the only public recognition I received from my brief appearance on Shortland Street earlier this year. Peter Feeney: She got my address off the back of a cheque. She's asking me out, I guess. Michael Galvin: [Reading letter] Great! Is she nice? I honestly cant remember. Have you seen what she looks like, have you investigated it? Well, no. Why not!? What would your approach be? Oh, walk past the whatever shop it is with dark glasses and check it out and - - you wouldn't want to get the wrong girl would you - - well that's what she's done to you hasn't she, she's gone and checked you out from afar, you might as well do the same to her and go from there! You think this is a sound beginning to a relationship do you Michael? Well is there such a thing as a sound beginning? I don't know they're all about as sound as one another I think. Fate has thrown this in your lap! Who are you to toss it aside! How would you deal with it? Is this how you deal with this sort of thing? No. If I got a letter like that I'd completely ignore it. Yeah right, cos you'd get a few of them I gather.
