Have your say about Covid-19 lockdown

The Team from Auckland Museum

Are you 70 or over? How did you find the Covid-19 lockdown? We believe it's important to gain views from this demographic, which was often identified in the media as being most at risk and in need of protection, yet their views and experiences during this time remain largely unknown.

A team of researchers from the University of Auckland are gathering letters from older New Zealanders about their experiences of lockdown, to inform key research about government and media responses in the event of future pandemics. Some of the letters will be acquired by Auckland Museum to record this unique period in our history for years to come.

If you or someone you know would like to participate, find out more here.

Panasonic TV leaving NZ from 1st April 2026

TV Signal Solutions Ltd. from TV Signal Solutions Ltd.

❤️ Celebrating Panasonic TVs

For so many Kiwi homes, Panasonic wasn’t just a TV brand — it was a trusted part of the lounge. From the legendary plasma days to their beautiful OLEDs, Panasonic always delivered picture quality that just felt right.

Cinematic colour, rock‑solid reliability, and that classic Panasonic build quality… it’s no wonder so many of us still swear by them.

Even as Panasonic steps back from the NZ TV market, their legacy lives on in thousands of homes across the country. Those TVs will keep going strong for years — because that’s what Panasonic does best.

Here’s to a brand that set the standard for what a great TV should be. ❤️📺
