Essentially, eight strangers gather around a breakfast table and tell their personal story. The host holds up plates one by one, each with different stories on them, the guests then have to guess which plate corresponds to which person. The results are surprising. There's a man who raised three daughters alone. A Chinese man who speaks fluent Te Reo. A young women who worked in a conflict zone. In some ways it's as if all of New Zealand was at one table, just sitting down for breakfast, having a chat.
