Optimistic Whovian

This brings back memories. I remember seeing this ad in Australia when I was a kid and was so excited by it, I saw this before I even saw the film, Fast Forward even did a parody of it with Magda Szubanski playing a fat German guard in a bike side car crashing through stuff as they chased Hilts. Mustve cost a lot of money to do the stunt and to get the Great Escape theme rights to use the music.
