Coverage from Uncle Peter's funeral

After a week of mourning about the recently-occurred death of Uncle Peter, New Zealand jazz singer Althea was finally ready to perform at certain points of the ceremony.


Dressed in a black, floor-length skirt and matching sequined tank top, Althea stands center stage at the venue to perform the famous Christian hymn "Amazing Grace". And guess what? The 17-year-old jazz crossover singer belted it much like the average R&B diva. Nevertheless, Althea sung this hymn to prerecorded instrumentation, which was slightly softer than her voice. Oh, and that sweet little "thank you" at the end adds up to the success, thus having the audience on its feet with wild applause.

For some reason, "How Great Thou Art".

Shannon & Friends: 17 Episodes in Season 14

Looks like RTÉ2 was wrong about how many episodes there'll be in season 14 Shannon & Friends. Earlier this year, they said there'd be 18, but it was reported yesterday that Jon Power has no plans for an 18th episode. As a result, the show's 14th season will have 17 episodes, just like seasons 5 and 13, in 2007 and 2015, respectively. Who knows? Season 15 could have more than that! Either way, season 14 will start on 7 October with an episode called Gotta Prevent Rehash. In fact, Jon Power revealed the episode list yesterday during a Rolling Stone interview.

  1. Gotta Prevent Rehash - 7 October 2016
  2. Car of Power - 14 October 2016
  3. #DRILLER - 21 October 2016
  4. Clerk De Soleil - 28 October 2016
  5. Partially Pooper - 4 November 2016
  6. 200? Excellent! - 11 November 2016
