Larry Williams Drive

TVNZ has indicated consultations are under way with Shortland Street staff - and there's growing concern around possible job cuts. It comes as TVNZ made the move to cut the series from screening five nights a week to three, leading to fewer episodes being produced. Former Shortland Street actor Will Hall says the industry is fraught with trepidation and there's limited job security - but he hopes no cuts will be made "I hope we see the light and keep Shortland Street for what it is, there's a great foundation and I'd like to think there's still a place for the soaps, even in 2025."
