The next episode of Maori Television's LGBT programme Takataapui will be broadcast at 9:30pm on Monday 1 September: Who will take the Crown and the title of Queen of the Whole Universe 2007? The show is an annual fundraiser for the New Zealand AIDS Foundation and a major event in the queer calendar; a staged Beauty Pageant with a huge cast of volunteers and competitors putting on the high heels, the choreographed moves, high hats and spectacular frocks, for a show at Auckland's ASB Theatre. Join us as we follow three pageant finalists as they prepare and take part in the big night out last December. Takataapui is broadcast on Maori Television each Monday night at 9:30pm, then repeats on Freeview's Stratos channel at 10pm. Takataapui TV - 26th August 2008
