Ah, memories! We recorded the music (from Tchaikovsy's 5th Symphony) at EMI studios in Castlereagh Street, and the video was done in the AMP pavilion at the old Sydney Showground in Moore Park. A big production for a 40 cent packet of coffin nails! Oh, and 'Boris' was a violinist named Geza Bachman who also played on the sound recording.

[@nath-wp7xp]

Thanks for commenting. Great to read about this.

[@angusgallagher6130]

You're a part of history my friend

[@danielstone9404]

Wow ! That truly is a great story ! And the same word came to my head, memories! Isn't KZbin great for this?! Ads that you figured you'd never see again. With all the associated memories. I didn't know until I studied music at Adelaide school of music (TAFE) that it was a Tchaikovsky piece, that they would end up using as the intro for his T.V. show. 'Straal-ya, maaate,' where has it gone??

[@debunked2926]

Any idea what year this was. I do remember seeing Hoges in old magazines lying around advertising Winnie cigarettes which I think were from the early 80s.

[@andrewsloane2064]

Was it the First Movement The Second Movement or the Third Movement that you used.

[@garynewton1263]

The Paul Hogan show filmed around Melbourne was awesome. Good times.

[@calesternarr]

If anyone doubts the power of advertising, this would be Exhibit A. This brand, launched in 1972, went from a standing start to market dominance almost overnight. Hoges and “*Anyhow” (mandatory asterisk) linked with emerging national sensibilities pumped up by the Whitlam Government, became symbols of Australia in the 70s. Still dominant today.

I can vouch for this man. l myself at the age of 12, known for being an upstanding respectable young boy from Blacktown, my choice of durries were Winnie Blues. Ya never knew you had so many mates when ya pulled that pack out. Save us a drag bro? Good times. Funny as.

[@rodneykearle9476]

Dallas Nyberg I’m sincerely sorry you have had a lung removed as a result of lung cancer from smoking I assume. No disrespect but our democratic rights to make choices in this country are being slowly eradicated due to the fact some people make choices that lead to poor outcomes for themselves. Nobody holds a gun to our heads or forces anyone to make decisions in life but when things go pear shape for some the answer is to point the finger as if their consequences are someone else’s responsibility. Not everyone will contract a disease brought on by their inhalation of cigarette smoke so why should everyone pay a price for that? Kind of takes the “D” out of democracy in my eyes.

Right up there with "Hey charger" ...as iconic as they come...not only this ad, it was the combination of "Winfield cup" in the footy...it was the perfect storm for me leaving Highschool in 1982,...In primary school we would stand around and tell one liners from Hoges show the previous evening. I was already a seasoned smoker of Winnie Reds in highschool. A member of Kurrawa surf club, I don't remember too many of my mates who didn't smoke, I was picking up Glasses in the beer garden of Broadbeach International Hotel on weekends as a 16 year old (pretending to be 18). It really was a completely different era...I dunno we grew up faster. I would sneak out week night and see bands at the (long gone) iconic Cloudland ballroom in Brisvegas..bands like "echo and the Bunnymen", "Ian Dury and the Blockheads"...thats how old we're talking hahah Thankfully gave up the cancer sticks 6 months ago at the age 59...insidious bastards...I had a good run, don't miss them...don't smoke kiddies

Back then AUS was still a British colony and cigarette smoking was big fashion. 0.40c was cheaper than the 0.50c for the big brands of the time.

[@johnrroberts7900]

Yeah, but Australians are the biggest hypocrites when it comes to alcohol (you know - the one that causes more misery than any other drug - murders, rapes, assaults, thefts, car crashes causing death, disfigurement and paralysis, plus cancers, dementia and other health issues). The Federal Government lets it get off scot-free. (Don't get me started on how soft Australians are on heroin, ice, etc. dealers) The state governments are so embarrassed they allow full-licence drivers to legally drive home after having drinks (the current legal limit represents intoxication to a non-drinker), they have stopped advertising what the limit is! Hypocrisy!
