PTV unveils campaign to promote all-night public transport on weekends via GPY&R Melbourne
In a significant move by the Victorian State Government, Public Transport Victoria now delivers all-night public transport on weekends in Melbourne.
GPY&R Melbourne has created a campaign to launch the Night Network, showcasing how public transport can ‘Open Up Your Night’ and cementing Melbourne as the late-night capital of Australia.
The Night Network launched on January 1, and is a 12-month trial that provides all-night trains, trams and buses in the metropolitan area, and a 2am coach service to key regional centres. It will allow Victorians to travel from restaurants to theatres to bars, or simply to and from work hassle-free.
TV commercials air 
cross the state, and outdoor media will appear throughout the train, tram and bus network.

I remember crying with laughter when I first saw this ep of Fawlty Towers.
I think that the cop car is ‘given away’ too early though. We see the decals on the side- so the reveal of the cops becomes redundant.
Which I think is a shame- shouldn’t give away the punchline halfway through a joke.
I think the above post was meant for the spec savers article today… Anyway, nice work from Public Transport Victoria. They’re seemingly one of the more interesting / progressive government clients….
Nicely realised, simple piece of comms.
Simple, but in a good way.
Okay what on EARTH is this soundtrack though I can’t find it
