What Now is getting double the trouble this Sunday morning, when
it welcomes TWO new faces into the studio presenting team!
The announcement comes after the 10 week Charge In For Charlie
process, which saw the kids of New Zealand vote for their favourite
presenter to take over the long-running, much loved host Charlie
Panapa.
This Sunday morning's What Now show (Sunday TV2, 8am) reveals the
surprising twist in the presenting team when both Adam Percival
(from Christchurch) and Longi 'Ronnie' Taulafo (from Auckland) are
introduced to their fans and welcomed into the What Now
world.
'This is an awesome opportunity and my dream job awaits me', says
Adam, after learning of his surprise career change from
broadcasting student to TV presenter. 'And the best bit is, I
get to enjoy the experience with a new mate too!'
'Big ups to all my supporters who voted for me, I can't wait to
hang out with you every Sunday morning. It has been a crazy
experience, with more awesome, gungey craziness ahead with Gem,
Adam and I, so thanks for choosing me to be part of it!' says
Ronnie. He comes to What Now after working at Youthtown in
Auckland.
Both lads have a keen interest in sports, music and the world of
television and are ready for anything What Now has to give
them. To get through the presenter search process, both Adam
and Ronnie have wrangled animals, polar plunged into icy water,
played games with children and even bungee jumped to help win over
their fans!
'Adam and Ronnie have proven they have what it akes and we are
excited about having them join the What Now family. The whole
team are looking forward to the awesome antics they will bring to
the show!' Producer Reuben Davidson says of the new line
up.
Wake up, get up, tune in and get ready to go this Sunday morning,
as What Now says goodbye to Charlie and welcome a whole new world
of fun as TWO new presenters join the team!
