Wellington Christmas Parade - 13th November 2011

Post by Tarragon »

Did anyone catch the brief TV3 coverage of the parade at the end of the news (after the weather)?
It showed us twice, but Santa wasn't shown at all :rotfl: What's with that TV3?

We had Darth Vader (Taups), 4 TKs (Shane, Dallas, Neil & Graeme), 1 Animated Clone (me), 1 Clone Commander Neyo (Shane's mate Todd), 1 Tusken Raider (Shane's female workmate Sam) , 1 Anakin (Saxon), 1 Leia (Neil's daughter - Alyssa) & 1 Jedi Padawan (Graeme's son - Nathaniel).

Great day & weather was excellent, sunny with a slight breeze.

Nice; that's a pretty decent turn out.

Didn't see it on broadcast TV, but will keep an eye on the TV3 website to see if it shows up.

The vid is available online...it's right at the end, but you can wait for the whole episode to load and skip to the end (it loads pretty fast for a 45min vid).

Grabbed a few frames from the vid (in no particular order, below).
