New Zealand's PM stayed calm during an earthquake on live TV

New Zealand's PM stayed calm during an earthquake on live TV on Monday morning.

She interrupted AM Show presenter Ryan Bridge to tell him there was an earthquake happening, looking briefly troubled, before smiling and carrying on with the interview.

The 5.6-magnitude earthquake struck about 90km north of the capital, Wellington, at 08:00 local time (20:00 GMT Sunday). It was felt across the country, but there were no reports of damage or injuries.
