No Leave, No Life
No Leave, No Life is an Australian lifestyle television series, hosted by Ernie Dingo in season 1, James Tobin in season 2 and Tim Ross in its third season. The program features a celebrity guest presenter each week surprising ordinary Australians with a holiday, and the destination is then profiled. Another celebrity, often a comedian, then fills in for them at their work while they are away.[1] The title of the show, "no leave, no life" was an Australian tourism campaign slogan.
