Ok, I know that there are alot of people from New Zealand living here in Australia but there are some ads on tv that you know were made in New Zealand. Recently they have started to show (again) the old V drink ad with the termites - that's a well known fact that it's kiwi made (& funny)...Now there are 2 new ads on tv that have been made in New Zealand - Well at least 1 of them has been. The first 1 is for the Thin Lizzy Make up - everyone in the ad has a Kiwi accent so it's definately made in New Zealand. The second is for the new stone dine cookware - now this one could have been made in Australia - the demonstrator has a kiwi accent but could be living here in Oz. I'm not complaining about kiwis - I'm married to one so have alot of family (in-laws) in New Zealand. I just thought with Australia being a bigger country, we should be able to make our own ads.

I was just talking to a friend yesterday on how many shows are on now that are from New Zealand, I have noticed the ads as well, I guess they must have a new studio over there or maybe the content laws have changed here in Australia...

you can. we get them in the uk. Aussie adverts. they don't even bother to dub them. I think it's the economic climate. why make an ad for each market. make one ad and use it for all regions.
