This campaign uses naval orders that are well-known in Australia through popular culture, and then changes a letter to change the meaning of the entire phrase. ‘Nan overboard’ twists the phrase ‘man overboard’, used when someone falls off a ship. ‘Nan’ is a colloquial version of ‘grandmother’ typically used in Australia.
