Samoan Television

We get 1 TV channel where we live (on the TV with a rabbit’s ears aerial). The great thing is that they show the NZ TV1 news every night at 7.00pm which also includes the weather for NZ and Samoa. Following this there is the Samoan news which seems to drag on a bit in a droning fashion. This is about when we do the dishes! Another good thing is that all Super 14 rugby (and any other rugby for that matter such as the London 7’s) is shown free to air on this channel so we are able to keep up with the games. Go the Crusaders tonight against the Warratahs! We have been tuning into anything in English which can be a movie or a documentary from the USA, Australia or NZ. 1 night we even tried to follow the Philipino substitute for Shortland Street but had to read the subtitles to figure out what was going on! There is also a movie theatre down town with 2 cinemas and usually 4 different movies showing at a time. At the moment Iron Man, Indiana Jones and Run Fat Boy Run are on so it’s pretty up to date.
