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!

I'm not sure we even have any ships left. Didn't we sell them all to Bulgaria?
