2:10 Nelson Mandela tribute - Helen Clark - We knew it was coming, but still it was a jolt today, a shock, as the world heard with great sadness that Nelson Mandela, the warrior turned peacemaker, the anti-apartheid champion and father of the new South Africa has died at the age of 95. Former New Zealand Prime Minister and now head of the United Nations Development programme, Helen Clark talks with Jim Mora
2:20 Christmas Windows - Caroline Trevella - They line up outside the shop windows at Kirkcaldie and Stains department store in Wellington every day to have a peek at something special. The Christmas display in the windows, with polar bears and pohutakawa, kiwis, Santa and the elves in their workshop, is nothing less than enchanting. Caroline Trevella is the creator and she's been working on the window display from her own workshop for months. Shop windows are one of her specialties.. she created the Christmas windows at Ballantynes in Christchurch for many years too.
