Tonight on the show, we have Savannah Truebridge. Savannah, in case you didn't know, is NZ's youngest company director and showing that women can take their place at the boardroom table. Good evening, Savannah. Hi. I think it needs to be said women are under-represented. Hey. Take your pinny off and come and watch this. 'You're at the forefront of changing that.' Oh, it's just puff, isn't it? 'It is certainly something I feel strongly about.' Oh, no, I think this could very well be dynamite. Lately, you've been speaking out to defend your stepmother, Brady Truebridge. I wanted to show my support. It's quite a big deal, though, defending someone you only recently met. It is relatively recent, um, but Brady has welcomed me into the family. And she's taught me so much. She's been like a mother to me. It's quite a big deal, though. See? I told you. 'Bit strange for you ` rags to riches.' Yes, it's been an adjustment. Now, I don't want to upset you, Savannah, but you've recently lost your stepfather, Karl Reichman. That's right. Now, we have to be careful what we say here, > because it's still before the courts, but I understand he had a criminal record. > Yes. Uh, he had some difficulties. He could be a very charming man, but he was also angry. Violent? To me and my mother. Yes. How did you get through that? I just tried to stay out of his way. I understand he owned a strip club, Pin-Up Chicks. That's right. Well, makes for an interesting background, right? (CHUCKLES) Did you ever go there? Hardly ever. Pfft! I was working as a fitness executive. > It's always good to keep fit. We can all agree about that. Now, Savannah, would you mind if I showed you something? Sure. ROCK MUSIC Whoo! Boo-yah! (HUMS GLEEFULLY) Goodness. ROCK MUSIC CONTINUES This was apparently taken at Pin-Up Chicks. Is that you? Yes. I don't see anything to be ashamed of, but how did the Truebridge Hunt Board feel about that? Um, as I said, I was working as a fitness executive when Brady asked me to join the board. Which was after the pole-dancing? Yes. So Mrs Truebridge knew about your background? A little. A lot! Well, I know very little of the sex industry; my better half wouldn't approve of that sort of thing. People do say that stripping is an entree to stuff that's a bit` a bit more full on. > It doesn't have to be. Still, the Truebridge Hunt Board must be pretty liberal. They just want people who are gonna look out for the company's interests. Would you mind checking out something else for me? DISTORTED: Oh, yes, I know Savannah. She is the hottest girl in that club. I paid $2000 for one night. Not cheap, but, uh, it was worth it. Whoa, she did do it. ROCK MUSIC CONTINUES This is a mistake. It didn't happen? Not like that. But you did do it at least once for money? > Whatever I'm gonna say, you're not gonna listen, so... Oh! Oh! I'm just trying to help the viewers understand your story, Savannah.

No. We were talking about art, and he said I was like this painting ` the Birth of Venus. Rhymes with penis. (CHUCKLES) We were talking about Shakespeare, and he sent me a book of sonnets. Why did he do that? Because we were friends. Sorry, babe, he wasn't your friend; he was getting off on it. No. Of course he was. An old guy sending you gifts and getting you to meet him all secret?

I'll get a copy sent over to the QC. Best if she sends it to the cops. I cannot wait to see the look on Detective Considine's smug face.
