By Matt Akersten - 3rd December 2007

Ladies and gentlemen, join Steven Oates and his star guests as GayNZ.com brings you the very best of his live primetime gay show on Alt TV…

Clip 1: Kids!

Steven and his only slightly younger friends Nate and Zoe prove a late night talk show doesn't have to be 'adult'. Can we get some more Fanta for Nate please, Mr SPQR waiter?


Clip 2: Drag!

"Telling the cameraman to take his clothes off is harassment and we can be sued!" Beaver Brown and Miss Kola take a shine to Mark the cameraman. Mark hasn't been on the show before, but don't fret, Kola kindly offers to ease him in after a few Heinekens. Bless her.


Clip 3: Wax!

And here's the international super/megastar Oates mentioned! Musical star Mika and Steven are joined by a beauty therapist (finally! LOL) who performs a leg waxing on a rugby player who no doubt wishes he hadn't pushed his luck doing any more telly after appearing on Game of Two Halves. Wait a minute though… he's enjoying it!


Clip 4: Dogs!

"Shooter is a boy, and he seems to like having sex with boys. Why would that be?" Animal behaviourist Mark Farnworth answers tough questions when a Jack Russell Terrier takes over the show - and brings some of his mates, including Rob from Boyband. "Puppy puppy!"


Clip 5: Halloween!

Labour MP Judith Tizard brought her knitting in for a relaxed Halloween edition of Steven's show. But of course the cheeky host had a 'whacky' activity planned, and when telly & stage star Oliver Driver and Gabes from TV2's Mai Time joined the fray, the show ended with shocking violence. That piñata didn't have a hope…


Join Steven Oates and his Sparkle on Sunday guests each Sunday evening from 6pm from an hour of live chat and music videos on Alt TV on Sky channel 65.
