  • I remember a lot of people not getting this ad when it aired. I think he had to do another shoot explaining that he wasn't really a tobacco exec.

  • @Hobby331 yeah I think it will come down to that too....

  • Same packaging and public restrictions will apply to alcohol as well

  • his laugh at the end sort of scared me...

  • @roguequokka And the proof that it will work is how much the Tobacco companies are spending on advertising against this legislation.

    Would you have started smoking in the first place if today's advertising restrictions and plain packagng were in force back then?

  • 2 years since I quit that horrible shit. I used to buy cheap smokes and put them in a Peter Stuyvesant pack. I know it sounds pretty pathetic but how many of us wear Levi jeans just for the label when Target jeans would be just as good? Marketing plays a HUGE role in selling this poisonous shit and big tobacco knows it. I am 100% behind plain packaging legislation!!!

  • i love John Clarke, he plays the exec well, but disagree with cancer council intentions

  • @DetFreat I can't believe you just argued that point. Let me guess you're a smoker

  • @whatmeworrymelbourne Yeah, but we've been claiming Kiwis as our own for years. Sam Neill, Crowded House, Russell Crowe, John Clarke.

  • @dw29392

    I think John Clarke is a Kiwi.
