We watch it to.

It makes me laughh when they bring food through and then argue the toss with customs. Most of the food they bring through you can get in Australia.

What annoys me about that programme is they show a case right at the end of the programme and sat yune in next time to see what happens..

trouble is, next time is nothing to do with the previous show!!

I got alot of good tips from it. On the trip we've just been on I took my Golf shoes because shock of shocks I was going to have a game of golf whilst in Port Douglas (went to Mossman instead Port Douglas was far to expensive).
I declared them as sports equipment and the nice lady at Brisbane airport took them and cleaned them for me free of charge, they came back looking brand new.:thumbsup:

Watched it the other week when 2 women were smuggling drugs inside a suitcase.

One of them got through and waited on the safe side the other got caught, it was only after they spotted her waiting about 2 hours they got her.

I for one don't think thats too good with customs if she got through in the first place with all that cocaine.

And that chinese woman with all those mushrooms OMG how much shrooms can one person eat?

Can you tell i get really annoyed sometimes watching it. :)

Great tv though.
