Members of the team
The Swedish Bikini Team were played by American actresses wearing platinum blonde wigs.
Uma Thorensen — Avalon Anders
Karin Kristensen — Suzanna Keller
Hilgar Oblief — Heather Elizabeth Parkhurst
Eva Jacobsen — Jane Frances
Ulla Swensen — Peggy Trentini
The team appeared outside of the commercial campaign on several occasions including on the cover and a pictorial in Playboy and on a Married... with Children episode, "The Gas Station Show". They also had a non speaking appearance on a schooner on an episode of The Adventures of Mark and Brian, where Mark and Brian underwent US Coast Guard training and were attempting to impress the girls by being coasties and asking if they needed rescuing (to which their jet ski then embarrassingly capsizes).
The team, played by different actresses, also starred in the video Never Say Never Mind: The Swedish Bikini Team with John Rhys-Davies.
The movies Beerfest and Boat Trip include female Swedish teams, inspired by the originals.
Team member Heather Elizabeth Parkhurst appeared on Ken Reid's TV Guidance Counselor podcast on April 22, 2015 and discussed the Swedish Bikini Team at length. |
The Only American Beer I know is - Bud Light |

Actually, I remember the Swedish Bikini Team from 1977, not 1980. How about Bud Light? |

OK, I cheated too and you are right. Funny, I have a very strong image of talking about them long before the actual air date. Guess the mind can play tricks on us! |

Before pirate posed the question I had looked for pictures of the Swedish Bikini Team to see what colors the bikinis were. One picture showed the name Old Milwaukee Beer. |

How about Saint Francis of Assisi? He sure is a famous Saint! The Franciscans are named after him. |

"Little Willie" was the first LANDSHIP ever developed. It was done in secrecy by the British. They developed a code name for Landships that is used today. What are Landships and why were they developed? |
