Recognized it the second it started. I remember it bought tears to my eyes the first time I saw it. It's still the way I see NZ police, brothers and sisters in blue.

[@grantstevens2979]

Yes, very moving and thought provoking. I wonder how many went ' on the job' because of it.

[@johntunnage3098]

put this back on tv , this strikes hard at the nz whanau

[@maxclough8931]

You guys should make a remake to this.

[@jasonpayneuk]

Brilliant blast from the past, recognised it from the first couple of seconds

[@mck2021]

I do, I loved it!!! I still have that song because I loved it so much.

[@meg7088]

I so remember this ad and yup it's a very long road.

[@NitramO_YT]

As a French, it's really interesting to see this!

[@nzspambot]

I do!, nice retro throwback

[@pianoman4967]

Remember it well and it's still so very very relevant! It could still be run and it'd make an impact... yeah, and a few giggles about 90's fashion. Thank heavens moustaches haven't come back! Police are still our front line!

[@grantstevens2979]

Um. I had a mo back then. 🤔

[@mk2escortvan]

Richard Long. I rest my case.

[@tomcruise6132]

WHERE DID THE 90s GO 😥😥😭😭

[@NicholasWingoldenkiwi2095]

Indeed Tom Cruise where has it all gone since then

[@kiwiryker]

I remember this ad , ,

[@MiaogisTeas]

I wondered why I never became a cop. Now I know why; this ad made the job seem so damn morose and filled with tragedy it's a wonder any one wanted it. 😅 Thanks for the nostalgia though.

[@creeny2900]

oh wow i remember this as a kid :) memories

[@RUMBALman4downunder]

Bring back the helmets

[@oakenshadow6763]

I'm an American, so unfortunately I do not. I also had yet to be born. Wish more ads told people that we all need to be better. The police can only do so much.

[@pingu255]

Damn those 90s house vibes

[@NicholasWingoldenkiwi2095]

Here’s to the police on the Frontline everywhere in the community and dealing with crime all around God Bless the NZ Police

[@philipdavidson645]

I se John Gallagher, 1987 World Cup winning All Black.

[@emptyangel]

Damn they really should bring back the white custodian helmets...

[@azbgames6827]

reminds me of british cops

[@NicholasWingoldenkiwi2095]

They are true beauties those classic helmets

[@rosepatmore8794]

Omg yes

[@arsewipe22424]

What's the song playing?

[@naasaanaf2981]

Is Johnny still around?

[@insertthecoinz]

Classic mustache, classic hat.. oh gosh lol

[@insertthecoinz]

Also yes good ad, thank you mates 🥰😍

[@dcblueeyez]

Does anyone remember the tv ad Just wait till daddy gets home... Eat your peas molly. I can't find it online anywhere.

[@MarkSmith-ud4sd]

The officer holding the lost little girl was on the back cover of our telephone book.

[@chahal_s]

So depressing like most nz ads

[@S.Reflecks]

This is so cool

[@H.R.T.P]

Since they've stop making vlogs hardly anyone watches this channel now.

[@alepepe5714]

Wow....god bless you. The old times...

[@cappin6937]

Not me because I didn't exist in the 90s

[@davidrampone]

Did you guys carry guns in the 90’s?

[@benhoffman1576]

NZP have never and still don't routinely carry guns. When I was young in the 90s I well remember the cops carried nothing more than thier notebook and handcuffs.... no pepper spray, baton/ASP, taser, stab vest, nothing of these it really was a different time.

[@mikeross8894]

Ben, what part of nz are u in.. they all carry now?!

[@mk2escortvan]

@@mikeross8894 no they don't. Sometimes it's reported that Police are carrying in a specific area, but this isn't permanent.

[@NicholasWingoldenkiwi2095]

@@benhoffman1576 at least that is how Batman would set a good example in crime fighting

[@jaydensteyn1359]

I'm glad the hats have changed

[@sebastianspring1563]

Not me wasn’t born lol

[@baddi3sslay]

No I wasn't alive :/
