Don't worry, New Zealand got their revenge Colonel Logain Send a noteboard - 02/06/2010 01:22:54 PM
And no, I'm not talking about sports here.

A few weeks later, the theme for this segment, known as "The Pitch", was to convince tourists NOT to come to Australia, which resulted in, IMO, the best ad of the series.

Just a bit of background - at the time, the Australian tourism slogan was "Where the bloody hell are you?"

Imagine if Australia DID invade NZ though. Think of the rugby team!

EDIT: Forgot the link...
*MySmiley*

I have nothing to add. I just wanted to be included in this thread.
It's really dangerous here

8th? We would need a 7th first. The Shrike - 02/06/2010 02:05:32 PM 638 Views
I blame Australians who already talk about NZ as the 8th state. *NM* Rebekah - 02/06/2010 02:06:48 PM 303 Views
But which is the 7th then? *NM* The Shrike - 02/06/2010 02:08:07 PM 312 Views
I have no idea. Rebekah - 02/06/2010 02:12:23 PM 604 Views
Maybe the North Island is the 7th and the South Island is the 8th Colonel Logain - 03/06/2010 12:56:44 AM 632 Views
Holland should invade Belgium, I want a day off too! *NM* Bramhodoulos - 02/06/2010 02:37:30 PM 258 Views
You have an easier way of getting extra days off, though. Legolas - 02/06/2010 02:59:08 PM 644 Views
It might be easier, but it's probably less satisfying. *NM* Rebekah - 02/06/2010 03:02:25 PM 341 Views
That would have other advantages Bramhodoulos - 02/06/2010 03:10:40 PM 620 Views
I'm not sure we even have any ships left. Didn't we sell them all to Bulgaria? Legolas - 02/06/2010 03:18:25 PM 721 Views
I'm convinced *NM* Camilla - 02/06/2010 03:20:07 PM 264 Views
You would be. *NM* Rebekah - 02/06/2010 11:38:02 PM 268 Views
Yeah, how come you and Tim are the only ones in your family who still post here? Joel - 02/06/2010 05:45:42 PM 697 Views
Sister is busy learning to be a scum... I mean, journalist. Rebekah - 02/06/2010 11:38:36 PM 583 Views
You had me at "Let's invade New Zealand". The rest just helped justify the war fever. *NM* Tom - 02/06/2010 07:56:14 PM 287 Views
Makes perfect sense. *NM* Rebekah - 02/06/2010 11:38:54 PM 262 Views
You don't need an army, navy or air force. God defends your free land, New Zee-ea-land . *NM* Tim - 02/06/2010 11:39:04 PM 290 Views
Damn straight. *NM* Rebekah - 02/06/2010 11:39:50 PM 274 Views
I think it's Nieuw Zeeland. Tom - 02/06/2010 11:42:32 PM 706 Views
The Ad challenge on that show are rather fun mick - 02/06/2010 11:43:38 PM 630 Views
