I remember this well and Bob Wright was the compere who use to ask us all different questions.
We were all sponsored by non-profit organisations who could win up to 100 pounds.
I remember the winner got a new wardrobe worth 150 pounds
She also got to go to the Miss New Zealand Show and compete for Southland. This included a tour of New Zealand.
