Last week we flew to Gisborne (Thanks to Air New Zealand's Grabaseat) to talk to Lance Cairns about his incredible life. In the first 30 minutes we'd heard stories about Don Bradman, Johnny Cash and the Queen!
It was a conversation that wouldn't have been possible for nearly 50 years due to his hearing impairment, but thanks to his cochlear implant – we had an afternoon we won't ever forget

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
