Hero image for Lynn of Tawa - Red Nose Day

Lynn of Tawa - Red Nose Day

Commercial (Full Length) – 1991

In this short and sweet advert from the early 1990s, Tawa's most famous inhabitant (played by comedian, producer and director Ginette McDonald) encourages viewers to go the extra mile for Red Nose Day and purchase a giant red nose for their favourite vehicle.  Red Nose Day is a promotion by childrens' health research charity Cure Kids, which aims to raise spirits as well as money. In 1991, all proceeds went to cot death prevention. Lynn admires her car's new accessory, dropping her classic compliment, 'grouse, eh!'.

Hey, if you think this is a hoot, check this. Grouse, eh!
– Lynn (Ginette McDonald) shows off her 'clown' car
