Okay guys I know I belong here given the Monty Python references, but who is Super Fly?
You would think that with the amount and size of flies we can grow here in the Land of Oz Downunder some TV exec would have imported the show but apparently not.
Part of our National Costume is a broad brimed hat with old bottle corks hanging on string around the brim to shoo the flies away, along with our Great Australian Wave also to shoo the flies away from ones face or food or babies.
We do have one famous TV fly. Louie the Fly from the Mortein Fly and Insect Spray ads.
" I'm Louie the Fly, Louie the Fly, Straight from Rubbish Tip to You,
"I'm Badder and Meaner, and Mighty Unclean, the Nastiest Fly that Youve Ever Seen"
All sung while flying into a house with a fly sized smoke hanging from his mouth and dirt and germs falling off his body.
You get the idea. He has been around on TV since I was a kid in the 70's
