Andy Webb and Diana Martin, from England, are the producers of “First Light”, a 50-minute film about how various cities and towns around the world are going to celebrate the arrival of the new Millennium.
Andy said that Tonga would be featured in this film. They visited Gisbourne and the Chatham Islands, as well as Washington DC and London. In Tonga they visited Tofua Island, and interviewed King Taufa‘ahau Tupou IV, Crown Prince Tupouto‘a and officials at the Tonga Visitors Bureau. They also visited Vava‘u. The film for Canada Television will be shown early in 1999.
