As you may know the Space Christmas Special that went to air on December 20th 2002 was the last show to be hosted by Hugh Sundae and Jaquie Brown.
Introducing the new Space hosts for 2003...
Phil Bostwick and Jo Tuapawa.
Phil will be familiar to some of you as last year's Space researcher and occasional host who also went by the name of work experience Phil.
Jo is moving up from Wellington and her role as field reporter for WNTV to join Phil on the couch.

I'll miss Jacquie - I see she's now pretty heavily involved in running George FM, so will still have some influence in my life.

I never liked Jacquie. There was just something about her that rubbed me up the wrong way. It was quite funny watching her and Hugh though, especially when it was obvious they'd had a bit of a disagreement or something, and they'd be all tight-lipped with each other.
Jacquie certainly wasn't what I was ...
Jacquie certainly wasn't what I was expecting from Space, maybe because I grew up with hosts on music programmes who were pretty out there - like Karen Hay, Barry Jenkins, Dick Driver. Compared to them, Jacquie is someone you might find working at Jayjays, but she had an interesting sense of humour, one it took me quite some time to appreciate.
For some completely inexplicable ...
For some completely inexplicable reason, she reminded me of Margaret Thatcher. Go figure.

I could never stand Jacqui, i bet neither could Dominic or Hugh.

I loved Hugh's ironic mullet, but sometimes he he had really bad moments, like the time when he said he wasn't sure if he should like Princess Superstar or not. He didn't want to like her because "Bad Babysitter" seemed really cheesy, but he thought maybe he should like her because she'd worked with a whole lot of really good artists on her albums.
Jacqui seemed really spunky and could be really rude and fun at times. Oh, I will miss her.
I like Phil. His smoky interview with Lee Scratch Perry was great. I've not seen Jo on WNTV. I hope she won't seem like a children's television presenter, because one of the best things about Space is how adult it is.

yeah it was good when they got her to host last year for 2 or 3 shows, the only downside is that they got Paul Reid to be her co-host, yuk

I loved Paul hosting it!!! He was good in the Space Patrols....hehe the guy from the chemist they talked to in Mission Bay (with the Billy Bob teeth..) about finding a dentist.....that dude pierced my ears a couple of weeks ago :P i feel so proud lol :P hahaaaaa
I love space!!!

jacquie was very funny i met her at the airport while i was reading through some magazines at whitcoulls it took me a while to get used to hugh but hes ok
but over all my vote goes to jane yee!too! shes an awesome presenter! goooo jane!
K for starters Paul was crap! he is ...
K for starters Paul was crap! he is such a dick! Wen Rubicon came in the first time and totally screwd the place up i was shocked! then wen they came bak in and started doing it again... :O now come on! yeah i spose theyre tryna be try hard rockers with songs with names like "bruce and "happy song"... wohoo then tryna trash everyones favourite show space! shocking! as for that Jo chick... nah uhh! ive seen her a few times on what now (no i dont watch it but come on ur not all telling me u havnt seen it atleast once!!!) and no way, she seems totally clueless sbout wut shes talking bout... i think Phil seems alright. thought he was a bit weird at first but he shud do the job just fine! as for Jaquie and Hugh... :( i miss u guys! they rocked! i think they worked really well together and Hugh was a lil less on the porno than dom was. Jaquie was seriously really funny with her fashions and personality! a real shame they both left.
Jon Jr. my man... cant agree more! Im a big fan of Channel Z and often watch M2 with Jane! she knows her shit and does a pretty good job presenting! i think she shuda got the job along with Phil!

ooh this should be interesting, but im not too sure about phil being full time host, just coz he seemed quiet, but hey only time will tell, and i have no idea who that jo person is, but hopefully she has a passion for music and stuff. i remember seeing the whole Space crew at big day out so no doubt there will be bdo footage on the first episode or something.

Theres an interview with the new hosts over at bands.co.nz - looks like it's going to turn into a variety show!!! scary stuff
When I think "variety show", I think of ...
When I think "variety show", I think of magicians, ventriliquists and tap-dancing twelve year olds. Of course, I'm sure Space 2003 will be nothing like this.
I like that idea that there'll be interesting people other than musicians interviewed on the show. With Squeeze being dedicated to NZ Music, it makes sense that Space look at other type of pop culture, the sort of things that wouldn't be arty enough to make it onto an arts program. Ooh, I'm getting quite excited!
The interview with Phil and Jo is interesting. Phil's responses are well written and funny, while Jo misses out words and uses quite a few television production technical terms. The interview can be found here:

Ha ha I remember when Geoff Bryan had a beard.
Anyway I went to the same school as this Jo chick and though I can't say I ever knew her too well I know she did start a petition to keep the Wellington Channel Z going so that's got to give her some cred at least!?

Jo Tuapawa is a very cool chick. She went to the same school as me, and has always been a very outgoing, crazy, very muscially minded girl. Everyone keeps slagging her off because she was on What Now, but guess what? Everyone has to start somewhere, and 99% of the time it's right at the bottom. At least we know she has some experience, and we're not going to be stuck with a clueless bimbo like that Amber chick from Juice.

theres a *nice* wee article in this weeks 'TV Guide' that comes with the Dominion Post on Jo. her favourite website is NZM........how interesting......

Ah... yes. I read that too and now I know who Jo is. I think it's a bit one sided tho that tha interviewer only interviewed her, but didn't get Phil's side of tha story. However, I say congrats to her and Phil on scoring tha hosts possition.
Wonder what Hugh and Jaquie are gonna be doing then...
