One had broken ribs and two years of heartbreak to overcome. The other had been a national celebrity but never faced anything like this before. Now they were running against each other, to the death.

July 10, 2023 Big Brother is Watching (and Listening)
How much are we being watched? Or is it all in our imagination? With the increase in CCTV and smart ware, from phones to fridges, the feeling is we are all increasingly being tracked.

July 07, 2023 The double-lives of Corallee Collins-Annan
A book deal, a possible Netflix documentary and a tale of success in the face of adversity, was the life painted on social media by wannabe New Zealand lawyer Corallee Collins-Anan.
In a tale that mirrors a Walter Mitty creation or a version of Inventing Anna, the reality seemed to be deceit, missing money and academic failings.
In this episode of The Long Read, Steve Kilgallon sets out the life Collins-Anan painted for herself verses real life.
