Featuring John Doyle and Tim Flannery, they did 2 other previous shows ,Two men in a tinny ,were they followed the Murray Darling and the 2nd across the Top ,from east coast to west.
I might find it difficult watching these days after Tim's last assignment as Climate Commissioner for Julia Gillard.

They have a new one starting this week one ABC 1.
This one is about the Australian / China relationship.

I think it starts Tuesday at 8:30. Three parts.

Watched part 2 last night on Fox. Lots of my favourite places. The Blue Mountains, Lithgow, the Hunter Valley, and the far north coast of NSW.

They even called in to our mate's pub, The Australia Hotel, in Cessnock too.

Will have to keep an eye out for part 3 for a Cape York fix ;D

Probably the slow witted person who picked John Doyle.  That sarcastic voice makes me want discuss imported campers with the cat.....  :'(
My alternative to cheap import trailers;
