  • It looks brilliant!

  • best ad ever

  • STOP the ads Foxtel or you will lose you customers, learn from the mistakes that

    free to air have made.

  • oi that little nerd kid at the start looks like me because i am only 9

  • oi if there is any aussies out there mate tell me because we got color tv in 1980 and the americans got color tv in 1950

  • who sings that

  • @MJRULEZ2956 Whitley - Lost in Time

  • Have you noticed there is more and MORE ads on foxtel

    then a year ago, people paying money to watch commercials brilliant.

  • I agree, the breaks are longer, but there is a difference between commercial advertising and promotional advertising. I think you'll find Foxtel show ads about themselves most of the time, instead of businesses.

  • why is the dad so old?

  • i've also been looking for the foxtel austar one!!! anyone know how to find it??

  • Where the FUCK IS THAT FUCKING COMMERCIAL - the one that is Foxtel and Austar!??!?!!?

    It was on recently but now gone - FUUUCK!!!

  • oi ivanshere calm the fuck down mate there on all the time in australia far out man

  • hahahaha sure thing man but i cbf recording it bad quality nd cant put it on youtube :/

  • Is seamus in this video? He is so not!

  • While watching an add for life insurance my viewing was abruptly cut off by a television show as i pay to watch these excellent adds i feel you should keep these invasive shows to an absolute minimum why else would i pay? I also enjoy the company of insurance folk who call from time to time in person at my door as does my Doberman Trixy. Please explain.

  • I'm kinda mad a Whitley now.

  • wot about now

  • this is television now

  • dont spill beer on jesus

  • pretty childish comment "rhys21kipling". it just goes to show your IQ doesn't it 20 years ago HD was not heard of. good commercial by the way, always liked it.

  • u r a stupid cunt and a disgrace to your shit hole of a country.

  • settle. are we behind the times in Australia? yes. did England ave this in the 80's? no

  • Awesome add and awesome song! Whitley is a great fit for the add.

  • this is the best ad for foxtel

  • I always watch this ad. It's da bomb.

  • My housemate bought the whole album based on this ad! Oh, and we have foxtel too! Kudos...

  • Yep this ad is brilliant. Love the track the morphs , BUT , pitty foxtel is garbage !

    Good ad nicely put together. Many thanks.

  • And I love the full song too.

  • I like this ad , and bands must love there ads on tv with youtube.

  • Hey, that's my husband you're talking about! He's the "nerd" in the scene where she's pregnant and when the kid is about 5. He's actually totally HOT. Good makeup & wardrobe can ruin anyone ... His brother (Patrick Brammall - Canal Road, The Alice) plays the guy with the mullet, handing his dad a CD, and the grown-up son in the last bit. We nearly had my son in there as the 5 y.o. but we decided he's not cut out for that line of work - too much expensive equipment to destroy...

  • He should be very happy about his perfomance. Many thanks good work ;)

  • hahaha love this ad .. gud shit

  • This such an awesome ad

    I love it and so do all of my friends

    we love seeing it at the movies and on TV!

    THANKYOU

    now I can watch it more

  • haha the woman got knocked up in the time it took to turn television from black and white, into colour...

  • i was in the cast and she wasnt knocked up it was a suit silly

  • well, it took longer than 8 or 9 months for public television to be in color.

  • by the way no 1 is whilsting..

    i just wanted 2 tell u that! =]

  • haha im on this add =] behind the nerdy kid =]

  • OMG...

    the girl with the piggy tails!?!

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    shes soooooooooooo cute!!

    aHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    i love her!!

  • I think this song is awsome! really clever theme 2!! CONGRATULATIONS

  • whats the name of the song?

  • Lost in Time - great, ah?

  • This is the funniest ad going at the moment, can't stop laughing each time i hear the whistle - even starting to do that whistle myself at times!

  • lol hes got a hot girlfriend for such a nerd.

  • i love this add so much soemhow its heart warming the music and relations..i suppose how technology is going so fast.

  • OMG The nerdy kid at the beginning went through my school bag!!! He goes to my school. OMFG

  • He stole my lunch.

  • great ad!!

    whos the curly head kid that passes the remote? I've seen him in something else and I can't place it????

  • same, i'm wondering who he is?

    he also reminds me of this guy that used to be on this show called "sarvo" like 5/6 years ago tat i watched as a kid

  • hahaha im in this ad at 0:12. only see me for a second though. easiest job ever, all i had to do was to look up and then down at the camera behind a green screen. o and the kid before me was in that ad for the election i think where hes the prime minister but he cant vote.

  • congrats - I'm also in it from 0:14 - 0:17 (the mum running from behind the lounge). What a hoot - everyone loves 'our' ad, ah?

  • hahaha, i never thought it was going to be as good as it turned out, i thought it was going to turn out like one of those crappy foxtel ads like the one where supposedly the T.V. starts talking to you and persuading you to get foxtel. i remember seeing that lounge room that you had your part in as i went to mine, its really strange seeing it on tv.

  • Bullshit

  • Bullshit

  • pretty good ad actually

  • Greatest ad ever..... it is good but come on.

  • i keep thinking someone else is whistling.. it freaks me out. lol

  • nice song and good ad

  • I love this!!!...I love these types of adverts that show how electronics, fashion, lifestyles etc change throughout the decades...and thanks to you all for posting the name of the singer and song name on this page....

  • I think he was Chopper the pathologist on Water Rats. And some other stuff too. Yes I liked the very 60s way the mum sat down and smoothed her skirt

  • greatest ad ever!

  • awsome

  • Ahh, I love this ad. Possibly the greatest, ever.

  • Can anyone tell me who that women is behind the lounge and sits down in the chair. I want her for an ad. Great 60s face. What about the great TV face on the guy at 41 secs onwards I know him from somewhere. Congratulations FOXTEL you have got the greatest actors in this ad. I hope see more of these two faces.

  • do you seriously want her for an ad? I think I can get you her name and agent details as my hubby worked on the ad with her. Let me know if you'd like me to get them.

  • Great ad, shows how far we have come in such a short time.

  • ok i found the song its

    Lost in time by Whitely

  • Love the ad, love the song, love the acting, wonders will never cease with foxtel!!!

  • Yeah, I like the acting, too. Nice to see new faces instead of the same old ones they always use.
