Who's who in NZ 1970s

Sir Rob Muldoon


Selwyn Toogood


Dame Kiri Te Kanawa

Sir Richard Hadlee

Sam Hunt


Peter Sinclair


Lindy & Azaria Chamberlain

Remember the 70s?? Who did you talk about around the dining room table? There was many "discussions" about "Piggy Muldoon" around the table at dinner time when I was growing up. He was around for sooo long, too...

Peter Sinclair, Jenny Goodwin and Philip Sherry were in our lounge room every evening and Selwyn Toogood was at least once a week.

Dame Kiri was there at Charles and Diana's wedding and we saw her sing in the early hours of the morning. We won't mention the dress - it couldn't really have been a bad omen ..... could it?

From across the Tasman everyone was talking about Lindy Chamberlain and her infamous plaintive plea, "a dingo stole my baby." Well... did it??


And yes, Sam Hunt really did always look that bad.
