Rove

Rove McManus is back in New Zealand and back on the tele to host a special episode of 7 Days which will be screening tonight.

It's the first time in the hit comedy panel show's seven year history that Jeremy Corbett won't be hosting, with Rove filling in while he's overseas.

Rove says he's genuinely touched by the response he got from Kiwi fans since it was announced he'd be hosting the New Zealand comedy show for a night.

The award-winning Australian media personality and comedian last appeared on TV3 in 2013 as the host and namesake of Rove LA.

Newshub sat down with Rove to discuss his favourite interviews of all time, why Kiwis love him even though he's Australian, rugby, what he's most excited to talk about on 7 Days, his comedy inspirations, why he moved to radio from TV and his old mate John Campbell.
