It was a quiet night on television last night, with the news programs ranking in first and second. It was Seven that came in first with a total TV national reach of 1,978,000 and a national average audience of 1,226,000. Nine came in second with a national average audience of 1,097,000.

In a modern love story showcased on Nine’s news, a man whose car went up in flames has saved the one true love of his life, his case of VB.

At a shopping strip in Ermington in Sydney’s West, the man’s car went up in flames. The video showcases him desperately trying to get his VB safely into his car despite the wall of smoke hurdling his way as he opens the door.

“His hard-earned thirst is now chargrilled,” joked anchor Peter Overton before confirming that no one was harmed in the incident – as for the case of VB? B&T would hazard a guess one or two were downed promptly after the ordeal.

The hilarious video has gone viral, with some saying it has the potential to make up part of the next VB campaign.

“This is the level of calmness I want to achieve,” one commenter said on Nine’s post to Instagram.

“The way he just calmly put the beer in the car makes me think like he has had a bad day already, and this is just the cherry on top of everything,” said another.
