  1. We’ll get Models Inc. to handle all sensitive international matters in future.

  2. The whole thing was ridiculous. Let’s hope the British do a campaign promoting Britain here titled: “Where the bollocks are you”.

  3. Why the bloody hell not post a gratuitous pic of said scantily clad Laura to illustrate the thread?

  4. The site that your link takes us to states that Lara is from Cornulla - is this some mythical land populated by hot semi-clad babes and as a result attacked by affronted Mulsim youth who prefer their women with their clothes on?

  5. 4. Having come from Cronulla, yep. it is.

  6. Sorry to add a downer chaps, but while Lara is suitable eye candy to promote our fair land, her inability to annunciate is annoying in the extreme.

    Diction, darling, diction!!

  10. The BACC currently lists “bloody” as its 27th ranked most offensive word, behind “crap” and just ahead of “God”.

    Must find this list.

  11. Yes Tom, but if she’s just for looking at (and I have no objection to that), she should just stand there, look pretty and say nothing.

    Sadly she is not the 21st century equivalent of Lauren Bacall who at 19 steamed up the screen in her movie debut with the line, ‘You know how to whistle, don’t you, Steve? You just put your lips together and… blow.’

    Great looks, perfect delivery

  12. You’re allowed to show diction on Aussie TV in adverts?

  13. So when is she gonna do the “Git back here, you sods!” advert?

  14. "God” is an offensive word?

  15. #6: You mean, she talks, too? Yowza!

  16. Hm.  You know, Sods’n’Slags Holiday Packages could be a moneymaker…

  17. Happily, we are all to see more of Miss Bingle. Woo Hoo!
