PK CHEWING GUM AD NEW ZEALAND 1989

[tbird81]

As a child, I always remember being annoyed that the pieces of gum didn't just drop out like they do on the ads - you always had to milk them out of the wrapper.

translated: 'It's a piece of new zuhhh-lind...'

[SiliconBong]

True enough, MightyMouse350, who pronounces it New Zealand as New ZEEland?

[loquacious00]

So.. PK is a piece of NZ.. LMAO.

[LilyOpmac]

Ha-ha we have Wrigley's gum in UK also

[catlover28]

What the fuck?

[DrRockkso]

Hahaha.

[Conniptions886]

It's an Aussie ad, actually - jingle was changed for use in NZ...

[theidolwhorocks]

@Conniptions886 That's what you think.

[Conniptions886]

@theidolwhorocks - Truck in one shot has a NSW number plate - not many of those in New Zealand...

[theidolwhorocks]

@Conniptions886 Doesn't mean it's Australias.

[yodasodaskoda]

@theidolwhorocks Common practice to shoot the ad for Australia market and change out relevant info for nz viewers...of course this stlll happens and not just Australian ads...always used to annoy me when this played back in the day that it was clearly Australian images...so you are wrong...but you know that already ay...just being a dick to the aussie cos it takes one to know one ay

[TheUnbeen]

@yodasodaskoda we have so many australian ads ae, but them american ones are shit, like the twix ad wit da cops and there helium voices

[yodasodaskoda]

@TheUnbeen Too right...that ad sucks big time...those manicured cops with the little drop down compartment revealing the product...sick making...what's hilarious is how they put a "do not attempt" disclaimer up when the cops inhale the helium...
