About Video History Snippets

In Australia, television advertising has also produced iconic and memorable commercials reflecting the nation's culture and humour. Some of the most beloved Australian TV ads include: **"It's Time"**, a political campaign for Gough Whitlam in 1972 that featured an all-star chorus of celebrities; **"What You Get Is What You See"**, a rugby league promotion that starred American singer Tina Turner in 1989; **"Solo Man"**, a soft drink ad that showed a man performing extreme feats of athleticism in exotic locations in the 1980s; **"Lubemobile Will Come To You"**, a car service ad that had a catchy phone number jingle in the 1990s; **"Not Happy, Jan!"**, a Yellow Pages ad that spawned a popular catchphrase in 2000; and **"Rhonda and Ketut"**, a series of insurance ads that followed a romantic storyline between two characters in 2012. These are examples of how Australian TV ads have entertained and influenced generations of viewers.
