TV3 political programme off air

11:56 am on 14 August 2010

A burst air conditioning pipe brought live broadcasts to a halt at TV3 on Saturday morning.

The leak caused some minor flooding in the newsroom and required a shut-down for health and safety reasons.

The problem halted the political programme, The Nation, co-hosted by Morning Report presenter Sean Plunket.

The programme will screen on Sunday morning.
