Myf Warhurst's Nice (2012)

A lot of the music we loved growing up wasn't necessarily ground breaking - but it was...nice. In episode 1 - And Easy Listening - Myf explores her first musical loves, some that have stood the test of time and others that she now cringes about. Myf embarks on a journey to find out why our first musical loves have such an impact. The journey takes Myf from the Tote in Melbourne where she picks Alan Brough's music brain, to Atlanta, USA where she talks love duets with her long-time musical hero Kenny Rogers. The conclusion of the episode sees Myf fulfilling a childhood dream by performing a love duet with a very special musical guest.

Growing up in a small country town, Myf thought dinner at the local Chinese restaurant was the most exotic culinary experience possible. With hindsight she realises a lot of our earlier food experiences weren't exactly authentic - but they were... 'nice'. In Nice and Tasty, Myf explores Australia's recent food past. Are we ashamed of our national foods and if so why? Is there more to the food in the bain-marie of our local takeaway than we think? Along the way Myf chats to culinary icons including everyone from Peter Russell-Clarke to Matt Preston. She learns how to cook a dimmy and attempts to track down the elusive chiko roll chick from posters of her childhood. This episode also features interviews with regular chef from GMA Elizabeth Chong, advertising CEO and regular on Gruen Planet Russel Howcroft, Peter McEncroe - the son of Frank McEncroe, the man who gave us the Chiko Roll, and one of Australia's most acclaimed chefs Shannon Bennet.

Most of us have a family portrait - a moment in time frozen forever staring down at you from your parents' wall. And even though they're invariably dated and often awkward - there's still something... 'nice' about them. In Nice and Snappy, Myf embarks on a journey to examine more closely these often overlooked loungeroom staples. Along the way she talks to one of the world's most renowned portrait photographers, Douglas Kirkland; sits for a school photo; and attempts to track down the man who took her family portrait 35 years ago. Can she coax him out of retirement to photograph her family once more? Also features interviews with comedian and friend Adam Hills; assistant curator at the National Portrait Gallery, Joanna Gilmour; photographer Stephen Dupont; school photographer Tim Miller; and Myf's big brother, Kit.

Myf's parents were both art teachers and as a result, she grew up surrounded by art. Myf loved it all, the good, the bad, and the ugly - she thought it was all 'nice'. In Nice and Arty, Myf looks at the kitsch and popular art of her childhood and questions why she, and many others, are still drawn to it. Myf delves into the art world - talking to a series of artists working with kitsch and tries to convince the most popular artist of her time, Ken Done, to paint her the doona cover she coveted as a child. Myf is then inspired to spruce up one of the national galleries and enlists the help of some crafty friends.

As a teenager, Myf's mum wouldn't allow her to partake in the biggest fashion trend gripping her peers - a perm. Looking back, Myf now realises her mum might have had a point, but at the time Myf thought it was 'nice'. In Nice and Trendy, Myf explores some of the fashions that she and the nation got swept up with in the '80s. In an attempt to understand just why we got caught up in these sometimes dubious fashions, Myf talks to some unlikely trendsetters including George Negus and her perm idol, Craig McLachlan. The conclusion of the episode sees Myf living out a long held teenage fashion dream. Also features interviews with one of Australia's best known hairdressers, Edward Beale; Jenny Bannister - a fashion designer who has created looks for Tina Turner, Kylie Minogue and Naomi Campbell; pioneer of Australian style and internationally acclaimed artist and designer, Jenny Kee, and fashion forecaster with over 20 year's experience, Tony Bannister.

In the final episode of the series, Myf looks at that hallowed place where all the 'nice' stuff lives - the 'Good Room'. Myf talks 'Good Rooms' with everyone from Pete Smith - face of Copperart, to host of Bargain Hunt, Tim Wonnacott in a bid to understand why we collect the stuff we do. Myf queries if this room, full of seemingly meaningless objects actually has more significance than we might think. Myf takes her brother Kit on a road trip to revisit their childhood home in the small town of Donald in country Victoria. She steps into her good room for the first time in 30 years and finds the experience overwhelming. The conclusion of the series sees Myf inspired to make over the nation's Good Room, with the 'nice' stuff she's accumulated throughout the series. Also features interviews with Gene Bawden - an academic who has devoted his life to studying the 'good room'; Joseph - a garage sale enthusiast who collects other people's 'nice' stuff; and Kit Warhurst - Myf's older brother.
