Aussies:
If we're taking the piss it means we like you.
If we don't like you, all you see is our game face.
As a Pom I know you relate :p
Remember watching a show called Australian story. On one episode they had an American aircraft gunner who settled in Australia after the war with his Australian wife. He said one day his father inlaw asked him how things were at his new job? The American said that he doesn't think he is liked because they are always taking the piss out of him.(paraphrasing) He said his father inlaw smiled and said Don't worry they like you. If they didn't they wouldn't have anything to do with you.
@@wufongtanwufong5579 The other way I've heard it is so long as an Aussie is making fun of you, you're safe.
As an indigenous person of mixed heritage living in outback South Australia, the 2017 ad is my favourite as it brings all Aussies together. Personally, I don't care when we have the holiday ... I just want to see us all as one... had enough of fighting and bullying over so many years. Now all seems so much better. Perhaps still got a way to go but I am tired of years of it and appreciate how far we have come.
My dad is an Aussie, my mother is French arriving 1950... very few French immigrated to Australia prior to 2000. Australia Day or Invasion Day commemorated Arthur Phillip colonising on Jan 26 1788 beating La Perouse, a French navigator by ONE DAY.
We were that close to being a French colony ! Cheers. Love your stuff and humour matey
2016 is my fave. The lady in Warsaw is Lee Lin Chin. She was a newsreader and her backstory was probably that she was working as a foreign correspondent at the time. It also featured cricketer Mitchell Johnson and a double for Princess Mary of Denmark. She’s from Tassie!
Mary, The crown princess of Denmark (wife of the next king) is an Aussie. That was her being airlifted out of the palace balcony in Copenhagen.
In my opinion the Sam Kekovich ads are the best, they were the original Aussie Day lamb ads
Funfact, Dan Kelly, Ned Kelly's brother is my great great great great...idk how many great grandfather. Im also gluten intolerant so when Ned was like "im not veg im gf" I laughed at the irony.
fun fact, a lot of people are related to ned kelly or the gang. a girl in my class in primary schools great great whatever grandad was the bloke that ned saved in the river
So you can't drink OAK? That's unaustralian..
@@okm88 deport him?
@@devonlord99 off to Nauru he goes
Lisa Kay that must have really tickled your funny bone when the gf quip came up
I’m Aussie and I’ve never seen that singing one before. Thankfully
The older adds are much better
Lee Lin Chin (the lady in Warsaw in the 2016 ad) had been an Australian news correspondent for decades on SBS.
She's the people's Prime Chinister of Australia.
Lee Lin Chin in an Aussie Icon !
Like me, we're both Aussies born in Malaysia, like many other overseas born Aussies. Proud to be one 🇦🇺💖
The historical characters being invited to the BBQ by Richie Benaut, a cricketer and possibly the best cricket commentator in the world, were Captain Cook, explorers Burke and Wills, the outlaw Ned Kelly, and cricketer Don Bradman, (who was presumably still batting as he ended his career with a test average of 99.94. The contemporary figures I didn't recognise.
You had Sam Kekovich, AFL commentator and previous Lamb adds, Ita Buttrose - women's magazine guru, The bloke he said nope to was Billy Birmingham who made a career as a comedian sending up cricket commentators of whom Richie Benaut was his most favoured target.
@@RolandjHearn I'm guessing that these people would be well known in Australia, I'm on the other side of the ditch.
@@iallso1 Very much so….
@@iallso1 mate you did very well then on the historical figures. Your own history would give you Cook,cricket gives up Benaut and Bradman. But Burke and Will's and Ned Kelly - well done.
@@RolandjHearn Didn't realise it was Birmingham (I've heard him often enough, but never seen him) - Richie's reaction suddenly makes a lot more sense....
The 2016 ad is bad look now since the government has left Aussies stranded in other countries not letting them home during the pandemic.
Check out 2021 lamb ad , it's a play on covid border closures between states/ with overtones of walls usa /.Mexico, Israel/Palestine, Berlin wall. Clever
Nice one, Rob. Now you need to see the one entitled "Mum's Doing a Lamb Roast" (my personal favourite)
Don't you want dinner with Tom Cruise?
@@petercrispin2129 And there's this one - ruclips.net/video/BtawXMD60cA/видео.html - which I'd forgotten all about.
@@stevenlowe3026 I'd forgotten about that one as well. Lol.
That is staring the wonderful and very talented now very famous Actor Naomi Watts! still funny to this day! xx
This is the way we travel between Australia and New Zealand.
His phone number 04 😂, both countries take the piss out of each other.
Some people suggest we celebrate Australia day on May 8 because it rimes with mate drawn out as in maaaate. lol
M8
Sam Kekovich’s is still the best
Truth!
Keovich's barbie girl ad is the all time winner for me!
The wall one is missing and Rob stop being so serious they're ads mate I didn't like the dancing one either it lacked humour of the others
Re. The French;- I love their food & their women. Re. Aussie inclusiveness;- the silent majority feel this way, it's the empty vessels that make the most noise about immigration.
If you are in need of help whilst overseas, you can always count on Aussies & Kiwis to give you a hand. Even you Poms are usually pretty good. Don't ask Yanks or Italians though...
haha! Oh i cant wait to come down under!
I don't think the 2018 one got much air time, I don't even remember seeing it! The others were shown a lot.
Sorry Rob, but to get the really history on these ads, you’ve got to go right back to “She missed a dinner with Tom Cruse (lamb commercial)”. Even better the two follow ups’ from”[Fast Forward] Win a dinner with Tom Cruse 1 & 2” . NSW in Oz
Hi Rob..
I like the 2017 add the best.
That is what Australia Day is all about. And why it is celebrated. Everyone's welcome to this great multicultural country to live with peace and freedom together.
Calling it Invasion day, only divides people. We must not dwell on the evil past. We cannot change history. We must look at how much better as people we have become since then.
Now helping the Aboriginals more than ever. The best we can.
Dwelling on the past only brings hate and division. There is bad history everywhere. We must always look forward and learn from history.
We remember, learn, move on improve, but not dwell.
Only my opinion.
I also like the 2016 add. Let's rescue every Aussie from around the world. So they can come home and have a barbie with Lamb on AUSTRALIA DAY. 🙂👍
Agree completely. Just remember that it was Britain that “invaded” or settled Australia. Before he starts talking about our terrible history he should take a look at Britain’s.
Did they get a Yank to write that musical one?
I'm so glad l've never seen it before!
The bloke changing the portraits in the background was a dig at the revolving door of prime ministers
The best part was the piece of paper the USA president held that reminded him who the current prime minister of Australia was. Any other country it would seem insulting, but it's a fair point in Australia politics. The last Prime Minister of Australia to serve out their full term was John Howard in 2006/2007.
The old Aussie saying was Poms drink warm beer and eat cold pies. My old man liked his pies cold, whenever he was eating one we'd all call him a bloody pom lol.
Ah the memories. I've been in Australia for 50 years now (I'm 56), originally from Lincolnshire, and consider myself an Aussie.
2017 was to show the multicultures of Australia, for the most part. Lol there was alot of big names in it too. It's also my favourite Lamb ad. Lol
2019, we had alot of different PM's during this time. Lol also one of my favourites. (They showed mainly the ocean part) lol xD
Australia is the most multicultural nation on earth, that’s what the ad was referring to and celebrating
We never stole Pavlova....we found it just lying around with no one about. Now be quiet and drink your warm Beer :P
haha! Cider thats is warm is the best! ;)
You need to check out the katut and Rhonda ads, the GOGGO Ad and the rabbits in China ad.
You’d move to Warsaw if you are a journalist of some distinction.
ah yes poland you'd move for the food
Ive been to Krakow 3 times and its my favourite place!
Lee Lin Chin!
That's her name...
The boat people one was having a dig at people who don’t like newer refugees coming into the country illegally - called boat people
Quite rightly unless you are aboriginal or TSI you are a boat person lol
Happy Bastille Day, French people.
2015: yes, these are famous people: Capt Cook, Richie Benaud (former Aussie test captain, cricket commentator, now deceased), Burke and Wills (famous 19th century explorers who died trying to cross the continent, south to north), Ned Kelly (bushranger who wore armour, was captured and hanged), Ita Buttrose (former editor of Women's Weekly - Aussie version - and now head of the ABC - Aussie version), Billy Birmingham, aka the 12th man (used to make comedy records lampooning cricket commentators, including Richie Benaud), Sam Kekovich (you are already familiar with his work).
2016: The skinny Asian lady is Lee Lin Chin, who used to present the SBS (multicultural government TV channel) news. English beer is warm; I know, I lived there for a year. Beer should be at a temperature that makes you think you might get frostbitten fingers from holding the glass. Rugby player - yeah, maybe. No idea. I am from Melbourne (Aussie rules country). Cricketer is Mitchell Starc, left handed fast bowler. Queen of Denmark is Mary who came from Tasmania.
2017: Well, Poms et al. invading "Terra Nullius" (land that supposedly had no people in it - ignoring the fact that it already contained the oldest known civilisation on the planet). You can't insult the French on Bastille Day. This one is highlighting the multicultural aspect of Australia. The Serbian guy is Sam Kekovich again. The guy with the plastic wickets is Adam "Gillie" Gilchrist, who was a champion Australian wicket keeper and run making machine. The thing the Turkish lady is offering is a kebab, which is the perfect 2 am snack after a big night. The guys talking about the "ch'lly b'n" are Kiwis (we would call it an esky). The Aboriginal woman in the striped top is Cathy Freeman, who won the 400 m at the Sydney Olympics. "Boat people" is a (derogatory) term for refugees who arrive by boat. There were many of these from Vietnam in the 70s. One of the guys in my year in the medical course was a boat person, as was Ahn Doh, a famous comedian in Australia. The Liberal (think Tories) government has instituted policies, including naval patrols to identify and turn back the boats, off shore refugee processing (in places like Nauru and Papua New Guinea) and third country resettlement (including New Zealand and USA) to discourage them. The comment "Aren't we all boat people?" is very apt and is a dig at the government. Australia is very multicultural. 26% of Australians were born overseas and 50% of Australians have at least one parent who was born overseas.
2018: I think this is a play on West Side Story. Again, a bit anti-government ("Global warming is a lie. It's BS that we won't buy.") This a reflection on our government that is way behind others in instituting policies to reverse climate change and is actively pursuing a "gas-led recovery" (although this ad does predate the latter). Our Prime Minister, Scott Morrison, once brought a lump of coal into Parliament as a "show and tell" to let the opposition (Labor and Greens) know that it is nothing to be afraid of. He also ridiculed the South Australian grid scale Tesla battery as being akin to the "Big Banana" (a tourist attraction in Coffs Harbour). "Can't even celebrate Christmas" refers to some schools that out of a sense of not causing offence/political correctness, have avoided the usual Christmas activities (Christmas carols, plays, decorations etc) - a bit like the way Americans say "Happy holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas".
2019: Refers to the fact that when they wrote the constitution, it contained a provision that New Zealand could join too. There were some indications that we would become one country, e.g. fighting wars as one group (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps - ANZAC). "One Nation" is a dig at Pauline Hanson's extreme right wing, anti-immigration party. The "underarm thing" was an infamous episode that occurred during a one day international cricket match between Australia and New Zealand in 1981. NZ needed 6 off the last ball of the match. The Australian captain, Greg Chappell instructed his little brother, Trevor, to bowl underarm to prevent a boundary. The batman threw away his bat in disgust. This was within the rules but "just not cricket". The Kiwis have hated us for it ever since. Yep, the mention of "Most of your awesome stuff is already ours" refers to Australia laying claim to NZ things (pavlova, Phar Lap - a famous racehorse who was born in NZ but trained and raced in Aus and "actor" probably refers to Russell Crowe. As Gladiator, he was considered Australian, but as someone assaulting people with phones, he was considered a Kiwi. Sharing the NZ Prime Minister refers to the fact that NZ's Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, is a hip, clever, compassionate person, whilst Scott Morrison is a pompous, arrogant, fossil fuel-loving a-hole. I, for one, would be happy if we became the United States of Australian and New Zealand governed by Jacinda.
Where's 2020 (and 21, for that matter)? I think my favourite is 2016. I don't remember it, but it is clever. Let us know when you are coming down and I will put some lamb on the barbie for you.
Will confirm it is supposed to be Crowe, the scarf is red and green symbolising his part ownership, and big fandom towards the Rugby League team South Sydney.
as to the Pha Lap thing, the horse was legitimately purchased at a horse sale for the grand price of 160 guineas or £168 in 1926 (?), so he was no longer the property of NZ, he was owned by an aussie...
cricketer was mitchell johnson, the chef at the end was george colombaris (2016)
Aboriginal
Yeah the one with all the ships rocking up got a lot of well deserved backlash for trivialising and essentially making a joke out of the beginnings of colonial genocide. There are some topics that should not be co-opted into these ads and that was definitely one of them. I cannot believe some dumbasses actually greenlit that and thought it was acceptable.
exactly my thoughts!
Rob, I know you aren’t sure how to react to the recent history of Aboriginal (First Nations) and Australia Day / Invasion Day. That’s OK mate.
I’m aboriginal and my family approach it this way. The day before ‘Australia Day’ we celebrate what it is to be Aboriginal - ultimate environmental sustainability, land management, art, culture, song, peaceful ‘internation negotiation’ and a democracy and governance that is only recently being appreciated by governments and regulators the world over.
In Australia Day, we celebrate what it means to be as an Australian. There are many things to appreciate - such as RUclips … and lamb! Cheers mate
Still reckon you should do the 90s kids shows that traumatised us aus kids like Mulligrubs, Plasmo and Round the Twist as I suggested on another video; but this is gold mate.
Also, don't fuck with Lee Lin Chin; she could fuck up a rugby player with a beer in one hand and a designer dress in the other. Yee be warned.
(ruclips.net/video/iNgZaFvTJ_Q/видео.html newsreader FFA, battle royale, last man standing. Guess who wins).
Informing you for your own good mate. Like batman she has no limits, no hesitation, no borders of district or law.
I lost it in the "Operation Boomerang" one where they just rappelled down and grabbed Princess Mary from "Definitely not Copenhagen."
2018 was the worst by far. 2021 ad was easily the best for a long time but it wasn’t in the package. Check out this years rob for the COVID twist.
You need to watch the Tom Cruise one. Love that one!! Although I don’t like Tom Cruise he’s so arrogant and loves himself so I’d do what the person in the add did. Check it out.
I strongly suspect the political one was due to far left vegans, and then upsetting the far right anti-refugee people, basically calm down, it's just an add.
An expensive ad. The French discovered AUSTRALIA … apparently.
we didnt steal Phar lap , the owner bought an unfit horse with worts on it ,recognised its potential and brought it back to Australia and turned it into a champion . would be nothing in NZ . and pavlova was invented in Australia by a NZ chef for the visit of Pavlova the dancer .
I think it was fairly obvious that you were on the left Rob. Eventually you will come to realise you will have to draw a line in the sand. A subjective outlook just does not cut it.
Trust me mate, bugger all of us liked that 1 either. Screw politics when at a BBQ. The 1 that started just a bit B4 12:00
I used to have a sticker on my car: "Eat more lamb, 10,000 dingoes can't be wrong!"
One of my favourite Australia day ads was the one with a parody of barbie girl (the song) i found it hilarious.
The ad from 2015 with Richie Benaud was the best one. This was made just before he died (RIP)
Yeah there is a Hemsworth who isn’t known outside Australia and that’s Luke Hemsworth.
I am an an Aussie and cannot recall seeing any of these ads. The Sam Kekovic ads are better than any of these.
Richie Benaud ( pink shirt ) the Voice Of Australian Cricket R I P Richie x
I didn’t like the political one either, however, lamb is always the thing to bring everyone together.
Everyone? You’re forgetting the vegans who’ll have megaphones and signs outside your place screaming at you for having a bbq
I really like 2016: it shows how Aussies are all around the world being successful doing different things but when it comes to celebrating being australian we all come together.
Stop OVER THINKING Aussie Ads.
The beauty of these ads is the inclusivity of them. Trying to explain all the cultural icons, we could be here for weeks.
Australia trying to annex New Zealand was because were were going through Prime Ministers like crazy, and we all wanted to adopt Jacinta.
She does seem to be doing a good job running things, better than our Scomo anyway.
Yep Princess Mary of Denmark, she’s an Aussie
The guy in the pink shirt at the start is cricketer Richie Benaut.
12:50 welcome to how the vast majority of Australians see the left vs right political system…
Contrary to the louder outspoken ones, the overwhelming majority just keep to themselves and wanna go about their lives and be left alone…and ask only for that same consideration…
But this isn’t that far from the truth…
Hahaha I haven't seen a lot of these. Just to give a bit of context:
The first one, the guy on the phone calling everyone is Richie Benaud. He was a cricketer and became a famous cricket commentator, you will hear his voice on Australian cricket commentary a LOT. Sadly died in 2015.
The others in the video are all famous Australian historical figures, the guy in the square helmet is depicting Ned Kelly, for example.
The lady in the second one in Warsaw is Lee Lin Chin, a famous world news journalist for the SBS network here. She covered a lot of stories and also did the Eurovision coverage for quite a while. I guess the joke is that she is stuck in Warsaw on Australia day covering some story and can't get back home, not sure if there was anything specific going on at that time.
Also I've never heard anyone non-Polish pronounce Kraków correctly, well done!!
Lee was getting ready to retire.
You need to react to Cold Chisel and Jimmy Barnes. “When the War is Over” “Khe Sanh” and “Flame Trees” is a good place to start.
More suggestions anyone?👇🏽
Star Hotel.
I love the Australia Day lamb ads. I had never seen the political one before and I'm an Aussie. Don't know if it ever went to air. There are a lot of indigenous Australians who don't talk about invasion. I think they've accepted what became the inevitable and prefer to just get on with life. The rest of us immigrants are happy to be one big happy family and you can see that whenever there are disasters (flood, drought, bushfires, cyclones, coronavirus, etc). Everyone pitches in to help. To give you an illustration of how we're all Aussies once you've settled here, my younger daughter's bridesmaid came originally from the Punjab and when someone asked her where she came from she named a local Sydney suburb. Someone else suggested you watch the Mum's cooking a lamb roast ad - I agree.
Please review the Rhonda and Ketut Ads.
Rob, what you may be missing is that these ads are packed with well-known aussies from sport, the arts, politics (the West Side Story parody had actual politicians).
Picture the Pommoe equivalent starring Pete Best, Cliff Richard, Botham, Ginger Spice, Boris J, Lulu, Jeremy Clarkson, a bunch of Jimmys (Savile, Carr, Edwards), Daniel Craig... are you getting it?
gotcha 😁
Rob, can I also recommend the recent movie, “The Dry” based on the book by Jane Harper. It will give you a picture of our droughts and the Aussie life in these times. It should be out on DVD or available on line by now. Australia is a vast land, full of contradictions, as are its people. You can die of heat in the outback or freeze in the desert overnight. You can be digging in the red dirt or skiing in the wintertime mountains. A UTube channel, Simon Hahmel, will show you the highlands in summer. Although, you have learnt a lot about us by now, you may be sick of us.
PAVLOVA IS AUSTRALIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1:14 Brings tears to my eyes to see and hear Richie again. We miss him dearly.
Except the 2017 ad they left Tassie off the map at the end lol. Poor Tassie.
Sam Kekovich is an Australian Icon!!!
and a good afl footballer
If you want to see some awesome mates helping mates watch the docos on the 2011 floods or the 2019 bushfires
Pav is Australian
Loved most of them didn't like the dancing in the street one
agreed
Youre left Rob? I almost unsubbed but I find you too funny for that….lol
well if you look at a scale I'm on the right side of the left! 😉
The sea between is called “ the Ditch”
I never saw the 2018 one. (aren't I glad about that!). I'm guessing it's commenting on the Gay Marriage Plebiscite which happened a few months beforehand (November 2017). Westside Story references were a bit strained. meh. 0/10.
I remember having lamb chops so many times growing up in Australia as a child & a glass of sherry
As an Aussie... I find these lamb ads kind of cringe worthy. A few sort of funny bits, but other than that, cringe worthy.
Lamb is becoming quite expensive in Australia.
Isn’t it!
@@moniquem783 , it's no longer the cheap Sunday roast like it used to be.
These ads became more ridiculous and less humorous year by year.
In England in the early 70's the beer was warm or at best cellar cool.
The only cold beer on tap was Harp and or Skoll (?) Lager.
Watneys Red Barrel 20 or 30p a pint, is that still a thing?
Some of these, like the Westside story one I hadn't seen before. The one with the commandos is ironic considering how the current PM Scomo has prevented for a long time Australians stuck overseas from returning home. Some of the older ads from earlier years are better.
Australians will soon be going to the China embassy to seek political asylum and greater opportunities and freedom not currently offered in Australia.
Scomo no more. woohoo
Why move to Warsaw? I went there for the Pole Dancers. Very disappointed. Tried going north for the Lapp Dancers and was equally disappointed. Don’t ask me about the Gaza Strip….!
You should check out the 2012 version - my favourite ruclips.net/video/C1cA2lBfYuc/видео.html
2017 was a bit controversial but I thought it was brilliant.....and 2018? I can't ever remember seeing it. It was just weird...maybe a reaction to Trump and the Murdoch press but a Lamb ad? Nah.....and don't start the Great Pav Debate!! :))
Probably going to get howled down, but Australia was officially proclaimed a Commonwealth on January 1st, 1901 uniting all 6 States and was no longer recognised as a British Colony, so, January 1st is much more appropriate and less divisive.
2018. The tune and theme are from "West Side Story" - two cultures battle in New York and that was also based on Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet"!! 🤨 Not catchy, bad theme! 😏
You look bewildered so I’ll explain the characters. Richie Benaud, a famous Aussie cricketer from the past, calls “Cookie” (Captain James Cook) to invite him around for a BBQ and some backyard cricket. Cook then checks with explorers, Burke and Wills (who died in the middle of nowhere), to join them. Then they get onto Ned Kelly, the famous Irish bushranger. The woman in the car is Ita Buttrose, publisher of Australia’s biggest selling magazine, The Australian Women’s Weekly.
Lamingtons are Aussie cakes, made from sponge blocks dipped in chocolate and rolled in coconut. You can buy them and request jam and cream or just cream, and the bakery will split them and add whatever you request. They’re really delicious! I can’t recognise the guy who calls Richie and asks to join them, possibly a non-Aussie cricketer? The last guy is Sam Kekovic, a retired sportsman and commentator, who was hired to do the lamb commercials.
2016: that woman is Australian journalist and presenter, Lee Lin Chin. As a journalist, she would go wherever they sent her, so the ad puts her in Poland in the middle of winter instead of back in Oz at the peak of summer!
The Princess would be Princess Mary of Denmark, an Aussie who married Prince Frederick.
Thr bald chef in white saying, “Well done? Never!” That’s George Calombaris, Aussie chef and one of the three original judges for MasterChef Australia, (along with British ex-pats, Gary Mehigan and Matt Preston.)
2015: John Shackleton in the Antarctic! 😂. Aboriginal woman who asks hey guys, what’s the occasion?” is former gold medalist Olympian, Cathy Freeman!
The Malaysian Aussie who asks, “Aren’t we all boat people?” Is a former contestant on MasterChef Australia season 1, Poh Ling Yeow, who is now a celebrity chef in her own right. There are also lots of Aussie cricketers mixed in with that crowd.
Yes, that’s the message they want to express. We can only make it reality if we keep moving forward.
Australia was nearly French. La Perouse arrived on 26th January 1788 at Botany Bay and the British arrived on the 20th of January at Botany Bay before moving on to Sydney Cove...
proof was found that France claimed the western half of the continent before the first fleet arrived in the east, at least as early as the Gros Ventre expedition in 1772, if not before
Rob, you are a wonderful and brave person to go out on this limb. I'm an American from the States with dear friends in Australia that, as far as I am concerned, are saints. My husband and I had a discussion about moving to Australia because the US has become a s--t show. However, my friend offers me the assurance that Australia is as much a s--t show as the States. It breaks my heart. I will jump into the deep end of the pool. My husband has been the Shahrazad to Australian lambchop sacristry . I am in lust of his cocoa-chili lambchop rub. Neither I, nor he, would dare compete in the hierarchy of the chop de la lamb. We love and honor you.
I love, love, love Sam Kankovich (Kenlkovich). His Barbee Girl video makes my pants get wet. Is it the acrobatic young men,; the man disgustingly, delightfully being squirted with sauce; or simply the admonition to enjoy a good lambchop? I want to see him nekked.
Believe me, you Australian people, I think you are wonderful.
Be kind.
(Separate the teals, 3 down more to go!) Song from "West Side Story"! Make a decision, somebody, were all Australians!!! 🎃🐂 Forgetable! ❌
Something you've not mentioned is the cost of the ads. Australian royalty has featured in these ads
Richie Benaud, Cathy Freeman, Adam Gilschrist, Wendell Sailor, etc, etc, etc. Many Aussie legends featured in the early ads.
And you won't be shocked, Pork and Beef had better years of sales than Lamb after their inclusion campaign.
Aussies just want meat. Not a message attached to it.
Australia Day is meant to be celebrating Australia being 'settled' (Invaded) by the Europeans, many of us who are Aboriginal don't celebrate it. Alot people have also come to call it invasion day instead, I don't go that far myself (though I have family that do).
Different people will treat it differently, if invited out by people I will go to hang out with people, but otherwise I don't really do anything. I know some people in my family who refuse to have anything to do with it, while others just don't care, some of my friends do celebrate it though
On a visit to Australia a few years ago I asked what Australia day was celebrating. I was informed that it was the arrival of the first European settlers, to which I responded "so you celebrate the arrival of criminals". That didn't go down too well.
The day that we celebrate isn't the day it wasn't original day they landed
As it was agreed by all states to move the day
A simple Google search will give you the actual day .
@@AussieVeteran71 I was explaining why some people say invasion day instead, though p I have reworded the orginal message slightly just in case. However as far as I'm aware the date change has yet to happen, also I just did a quick google search, and it looks like it's still not an offical change yet.
@@iallso1 That is one way to view it, just be aware there was more than just crimnals, and even the crimnals that did come weren't the more extream crimes
These ads would be out around my birthday and I thought they were hilarious (26th January-which is usually what Australia Day is celebrated on). They still make me smile a bit. I do love my BBQ and pavlova as my birthday cake lol.
4:10 The person on-screen is Huw Higginson, an Australian English actor who played PC George Garfield in "The Bill"
Who invited New Zealand!!? Bloody chilli dogs!? It was fun, were all boat people! ☑️ Just byo drinks! 🤨
Ritchie Benault, wow Mr Cricket! Bradman! Ita Buttrose, absolute legend! 😁🤗☑️
I loved ALL of them! Especially the " how long have you been here?" I sold my TV 40 years ago...these type of ads are the only thing I've missed. ;P
The guy Richie Benaut didn't invite to the BBQ was the 12th man, a comedian that did cricket commentary parodies. Very funny stuff from the '80s '90s, even if you only have a mild understanding of the game.
The all are welcome one is our ideal situation. It is how we want to view Austraila. We are not quite there just yet but are working on it. As for the indiginous peoples feeling on this, my experiance has been that is how they feel for the most part also. They want to welcome you and be included in what you are doing. One of my faverite quotes on the subject is "We want to walk with you, we do not want to walk alown.".
