Rules: You can vote 'undecided' for categories if need be and you can give more than one, with winner and runners up if you're not totally decided on one person. You can also cite a specific film or show if you want to add evidence for why you voted. And, they have to be New Zealanders, but they don't necessarily have had to have been born here. ie Yvonne lawly was a great kiwi actress but was born in London, etc.

Good luck.

Best female newsreader - the late Angela D'Audney, by a country mile - authoritative, clear, great diction...

I think you're a bit harsh on Ginette McDonald - she's really a very talented person, as writer/producer/director, whatever you think of "Lyn of Tawa"...
