90s - The decade in news: The 90s might have started off with the celebration of our sesquicentennial, but there were some dark times approaching: The mass killing at Aramoana and the Bain murders. Cave Creek. Things were literally dark in Auckland as the power went out for weeks on end. Race relations were tense, with attacks on One Tree Hill, the America’s Cup and an occupation at Moutoa Gardens.

Join legendary TV presenters Dougal Stevenson, Jennie Goodwin, Judy Bailey and Tom Bradley in a brand new local series, I Was There showing every weeknight in June. Each episode is presented by one of our iconic Kiwi newsreaders and covers a new decade. From the 60s through to the 90s, as viewers are taken through the biggest moments in New Zealand history over four momentous periods of change. I Was There unearths footage from rare archives, and fresh interviews offer new perspectives on the moments that changed our nation, from national tragedies to sporting triumphs and cultural milestones - all from the people who lived them.
