Paul Henry was Benny in crossroads? Figures.
Apparently the Falkland Islands garrison used to refer to the islanders as "bennies" after that character. Once this became known to their commanders, this derogatory term was promptly banned. The squaddies then began calling the islanders "stills". When asked why, the answer was "because they're still bennies, sir".

Edward
WoodwardWere we discussing imprisoning Paul Henry in a large Wicker Man and torching it, whilst a young Britt Ekland dances naked? I'm all for that kind of shenanigans.

A useful
poll would have got respondants to "put these
two/three people in voting order".I have a feeling that analysing such a poll would be a statistical can of worms. There are N! outcomes of a poll with N candidates, without even considering those voting for less than N.
Determining the error margin on that lot would need a good statistician, and they charge more for their time than journalists.

Conversely, if they get acquitted but meantime the other team has won, would there also be a rerun?

I don't believe you would want to swim and ski on the same day in NZ unless you liked either rock dodging in slush, freezing in icy water, or both.
If one was dedicated to try such things and had the wealth of a John Key, the French ski resort of Isola 2000 has helicopter service to Nice.
