The Tardis materialises in the outback town of Didjabringyabeeralong... The Doctor and Clara step out of The Tardis...
"Strewth!... what the fuck is that mate?... it's a bloody ripper!"... says the local colourful character... "who makes it mate?... Holden or Ford?... it better be a Holden or I'll get a drop bear to shit on ya!"...
"what a strange man!" says The Doctor... "come on Clara... back in The Tardis... it's time to go fight some Daleks!"...
The Doctor and Clara return to The Tardis and it dematerialises...
"Darlecks?... what da fuck are Darlecks???"... says the local colourful character... "that don't sound like a Holden or Ford... probably some crappy little Japanese shitbox!"...

...as with the Americans I think that the British would probably go for the standard stereotypical 'fair dinkum Aussie' to be in the show using words like strewth/fair dinkum/knoath/rippa etc to convey the Australian presence lol!... maybe Moffats writers might be more sophisticated than that but still... cheers.

Possibly. The only british tv show that i have seen that did an episode in Australia was Inspector Morse. I thought that was ok.

They did do one based in Australia:
"In 2018, the Second Doctor and his companions Jamie McCrimmon and Victoria Waterfield arrived on an Australian beach, where they soon became embroiled in the machinations of Ramón Salamander. (TV:The Enemy of the World)"
(http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Australia)
Wasn't "The Enemy of the World" one of the episodes that went missing and they found it?

I always liked the idea of Aussie Daleks
"EXTERMINATE MATE, EXTERMINATE MATE"
"ALL BOGANS MUST DIE"
"THE DOCTOR BURNT THE SNAGS, THE DOCTOR MUST DIE"

The Doctor (Peter Capaldi) is joined by Clara Oswald (Jenna Coleman) for time travel on a cinematic scale. Having the time of their lives, the pair meet new and old monsters, and go on a journey that takes them to deadly alien planets, creepy underwater bases, Vikings villages, a global Zygon uprising, and leads them through hidden alien dens, to the very end of time itself.
Meeting monsters old and new the Doctor will come face to face with Missy (Michelle Gomez), a city of Daleks, deadly mercenaries called the Mire, terrifying ghosts and more.
