A say day for New Zealand broadcasting: Angela D'Audney dies, aged 57. She was the iconic female newsreader for us 70s babies with one of the best speaking voices on television (a soothing blend of RP and NuZild), a trademark gappy grin and a generally all-round lovely-lady demeanour. You just couldn't hate the woman. She was even good natured enough to send herself up in recent years on cult show Havoc: sitting in a plush chair by a roaring fire, reading lyrics from The Doors earnestly to camera in the "D'Audney Reads The Doors" segment. She'll be missed. By Alex too.
