On this day in 1993, ‘Sale of the Century’ presenter Steve Parr took his final slide on TVNZ, wrapping up its four-season run… at least for a moment (it later resurfaced on TV3).
A bit of a sad slide for fans, but a memorable one all the same — from Steve Parr’s now-legendary opening entrance to Jude Dobson’s glam finale look, and contestants competing for a rug, a US trip, and a box possibly containing a $29,000 Mitsubishi Mirage.
