It's fair to say that the Newstalk ZB newsroom made some fresh discoveries about our colleagues today.
A viral Twitter topic, sparked by comic writer Gail Simone, has seen tens of thousands of people around the world share their first character crushes.
Simone asked a simple question: "Which animated character did you first think was super kissable, even if it sounds weird now?"
She has been flooded with responses, and the topic is now the top trending subject on Twitter as people reveal the Disney, Nickelodeon and anime characters that first stole their hearts.
Producer Antz put the question to the newsroom, as well as Andrew Dickens, and some interesting results were unveiled.Â
