So what have we learnt?









1. Koala's are not bears but in fact marsupials - their closest relative being a wombat.






2. If you want to work in Australia you have to wait atleast six months for your visa to clear.






3. America is the world leader for entertaining Hobo's (The winner being the black guy in Boston who shouted 'Hey Baldy, I would've kept the wig on' and then started whooping like James Brown)






4. Everyone in America thinks they are Irish; they are not, they are American.






5. It is easier to watch televised football in America and Australia than it is in Britain as it is all free and on normal television.






6. It is illegal to hold a Koala in New South Wales but perfectly alright in Queensland where Koala's are allowed to be held for up to half an hour per fortnight.






7. American's are, by in large, genuinely warm, self effacing people; the ones who are loud, self opininated, moronic, offensive, rude and who think Wales is in England seem to be the ones who leave their country and impose themselves on the rest of the world. Yes, you Katie.






8. The bloke on the Aussie $10 bill looks uncannily like the late (Thatto) Heath ledger.






9. New York is awful and more people should admit it...






10. ... apart from the Chelsea Hotel which is eveything it should be.






11. Fortitude Valley in Brisbane - where you can go into a bar, get glassed, bandaged up and carry on drinking - was obviously the inspiration behind Mad Max.






12. Summer Heights High is the best comedy series in the world at the moment.






13. There is a one hundred quid difference between buying Timberland boots in the UK and in the states.






13. Airlines should are legally able to seat you in the midst of a party of teenage dancers from Florida who are are pumped up on E numbers and have been watching High School Musical on a loop for the last six months.






14. San Diego is classy and has the best zoo in the world.




15. The Greyhound bus is safer, quicker, cheaper and more comfortable than any form of transport in the U.K.


16. Noone came make cider like the English.



17. Everyone everywhere (apart from the north of england) supports Manchester United.



18. There were no rabbits in Australia in 1839, there are now in excess of 300 million.
