It's the whole show in one go! Today The Country is brought to you by the classic board game Trivial Pursuit and the music of Ricky Gervais. It's Gervais's birthday today so Dom is punishing everyone with David Brent's greatest hits. Thanks Dom.
We also have special guest Warren McSkimming, ex-cricketer and area manager for Tru-Test. Wazza's here to kick off the Tru-Test Trivial Pursuit competition. You could win a stick reader worth $2300!
On with the show: First up we have Richard Loe. The farmer and former All Blacks hard man talks a bit of farming, footy and global warming in Canterbury! (Don't mention the Crusaders...).
Today's panel features two high-profile Southland farmers Don Nicolson and Dean Rabbidge. They are up in arms over the proposed Land and Water Plan from Environment Southland.
Next we have some weather with Phil Duncan who says winter has turned into "sprinter" with spring-like conditions being experienced by many.
