De BBC zend een driedelige docu uit over Australia, het land, de mensen en hun invloed op elkaar (mining etc.): Australia with Simon Reeve
Afgelopen zondag was deel 1 (die is op internet semi legaal nog wel te vinden) de komende twee weken de andere delen.
Happy Watching
Simon Reeve travels around Australia in this 3 x 1hr BBC2 TV adventure series, a riveting journey that blends a travelogue with current affairs, history, culture, wildlife, conservation, and offers unique insights into life in glorious AUSTRALIA. The first leg of Simon’s journey takes him from the ‘red centre’ of the country south to the wine region, then west to Perth. On the second he travels across the remote and wild north to the Great Barrier Reef. And his third takes him down the east coast to the magnificent cities of Sydney and Melbourne.
SIMON REEVE COMMENTED: “So much of what we think we know about Australia is wrong. I loved having a chance to challenge pre-conceptions about the country and the locals on this adventure. We used to think of Australia as a quaint European backwater on the other side of the planet. But Australia’s changed. It feels fresh, new and diverse. And rather than being cut-off, it’s perched on the edge of Asia, the most dynamic region of the planet.”
“Australia has just the right balance of familiarity and exoticism to make for an endlessly appealing adventure. I was bowled over by the confidence, the humour, and the optimism of the country.”
