Great show but are they taking the piss with the name 'Holden Ford'?
Kinda.
It turns out the creator of the show spent a lot of his childhood in Adelaide. When naming the character, he started out thinking about Holden Caulfield from Catcher in the Rye (partly because he was driving a Holden rental car at the time), and because of his upbringing his mind logically went to Ford.
