For the third year in a row, Sam Kekovich will be promoting Australian Lamb for Australia Day, although the TV commercial is a little different to the past two years. With 2007 being an election year, this year’s video is filmed in the style of a political advertisement you’d usually see from the Liberal or Labour party. The video is called “An Address to the Nation” and goes for about 3 minutes.
Some of the quotes I love include;
“Speaking of tests, there’s one way to keep the Ashes permanently in Australia. Make our own. The ashes from a good lamb barbie are a lot better than some burnt Pommie stump anyway. And reduce global warming by finding alternatives to fossil fuels to power barbies.”
“My fellow Australians. I have a dream - that by Australia Day 2007 no Australian child will be living without a nice juicy lamb chop. And I have a dream that on Australia Day mung beans and lamb chops can sit together, side by side on the same plate, as long as it’s not mine. And I have a dream that lamb can unite Australians of all colours and creeds - even hairy legged sandal-wearing lentil eaters.”
“Don’t be unAustralian. Vote Lamb on Australia Day. You know it makes sense. I’m Sam Kekovich.”
