AAPT tv advert
 
OK very important question here. Since we've arrived, we've seen this advert which we find hysterical, due to female character, who I think's supposed to be greek/aussie advertising the AAPT telephone provider.

We were told it was a bloke dressed up as a woman, but I don't think so. She wears a big dark wig, and says, "is this a joke" and "ummm-ahhh". Who is she???? Is she a comedienne or just a character created for AAPT? Who cares, she's a legend!!

Please if you know, put us out of our misery!! :D

Maria Koustas (sp?) - the character is called Effie - The Bloke says she is from a comedy show set in a Greek cafe back in the 80s, and also appeared in the "Wog" films with Nick Gianopoulos (that is all totally Greek :rolleyes: to me, but he is an Aussie and sounds like he knows what hes on about!)
