Did You Know?
Trivia | The radio station 90.2 (Mhz) that Grant and Paul are listening to in the car on the way out of Auckland is called "The Rock". See more » |
Goofs | When Grant and Paul leave their house at the beginning, the scenes of them driving are completely out of order. The first shot shows them very close to the Auckland CBD, followed by them driving down State Highway 1 in the country (nearby Rangiriri), then passing under the Papakura Motorway bridge (part of Auckland), back again on the SH1 country road and past the Japanese bus they encounter, until the car turns off at Pokeno (which is much further north of Rangiriri and just south of Auckland) to head west.

Kelly:
Are you coming to the party? Paul: Of course we're coming to the party. Kelly: Then just head back that way, it's a left, and a right... Lisa: Follow us, if you think you can keep up. See more » |
