AM Host Laura Tupou has serenaded King Charles III ahead of his coronation this weekend.
As Friday's show wrapped up, Tupou revealed she'd mentioned she'd played the flugelhorn once in a meeting.
She then said an Auckland music store had sent the show the horn so she could play the UK national anthem.
"It's been 21 years since I mentioned I played," she said before launching into a rendition of 'God Save The King.'
"This is going to be terrible," she said, before adding: "Enjoy everyone, because I won't be."
Despite a false start, Tupou said; "I'm not saving the king with this performance," before co-host Ryan Bridge chipped in with "Save yourself."
"I can't save myself, I'm drowning," Tupou joked.
