When award-winning hit comedy series Educators debuts its 3rd season on TVNZ2 in December, Kath and Kim star Magda Szubanski will finally make the show.
The Australian comic super star had the best time filming in New Zealand, but because of lockdowns, producers were not able to finish her scenes for last year's series.
The first episode of the new season of the unscripted show about awkward teachers will debut Szubanski alongside fellow Aussie and series regular Rick Donald.
Donald's angry PE teacher character who has a criminal history is joined by Szubanski playing his scary mum.
"I grew up watching Magda on Kath and Kim so it was pretty surreal doing a scene opposite her and having her play my mum," Donald tells Spy.
