Aussie TV Adverts

Australian TV, when I get the chance, is much different from UK offerings, especially when it comes to the TV commercials.

I posted before about how a lot of the local businesses have their owners / operators / employees appearing in the ads, as opposed to sourcing actors, as is the norm in the UK.

But I was speaking to people at work today, and was reminded that TV ads here can be quite risque. Here, just for fun, are some examples of what can be on TV in Oz, even at lunch time...

LMAO. I have seen some older Australian ads and no way would they put those on American TV...although they put a lot of trash on television. Love the funnies.

Hi David, I'm also Scottish, and in my single days spent a wonderful few months in Auz - so much so, having hundreds of cousins already firmly established in Sydney,I decided to emigrate there. Fate had other ideas, and I ended up marrying and settling in London - but I always wondered "what if?"

Love the ad's. Hubby is in advertising, so this really tickled my funny bone!

Hi Shrinky.

You could do worse than London.

But never say never...

Ah yes, Aussie TV. Not sure why, but after watching those ads my extra soft pillow top mattress just isn't doing it for me.
