Was there a TV mini-series about Fred Burley???? I am familiar with a movie called Undercover that was about Burley and Berlei. Can we get a source or reference for this information? --RichardAmes 08:16, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Structure of page

I think there are three subjects here:

1. The brand (or trademark) 'Berlei'.

2. The company and companies (Berlei Limited) which were originally Australian. Then the NZ and UK decendents. The various takeovers and splitups..... Hestia, Dunlop Australia, Pacific Brands, etc. In this connection other people may be mentioned: Hurley, Michael Hershon.

3. The bio of the Founder.

Originally Australian??? - It still is! Pacific Brands based in Melburne owns it, together other companies they now own such as, Dunlop, Swan Lee, King Gee etc

I think the writer must of got confused with the Berlei subsidary in England that is a company in it's own right that just markets the Australian product.
