Product Information

It was an innocent era for family TV entertainment, a child and a marsupial a friendship forged in the famed Waratah National Park, forever etched in the Australian Pop Culture landscape Narrated by Magda Szubanski (Babe, Kath & Kim), SKIPPY: AUSTRALIA'S FIRST SUPERSTAR takes a fascinating and definitive look at one of Australias most cherished TV stars, Skippy the bush kangaroo. Born in 1968 to an appreciative television audience, Skippy The Bush Kangaroo was the creation of John McCallum. A simple nature-themed family show about a boy named Sonny Hammond, his Ranger father and kangaroo that was sold in 128 countries has been watched by hundreds of millions worldwide and helped put Australia firmly on the global map. This program pays tribute to the many people who worked on the ground-breaking series and celebrates one of the most iconic Australian television shows ever created. The star of 91 episodes between 1967 and 1969, Skippy The Bush Kangaroo beamed into living rooms in more than 120 countries, introducing the world to the wonders of the Australian bush and a cast of colourful characters, including Skippys human companion Sonny, whose father was head ranger of the Waratah National Park. So sit back and get ready to take a nostalgic trip back to the glory days of Australian television as we laugh, cry and gasp at the unparalleled adventures faced by this unrelenting superstar whose theme song still resonates across the globe. Skippy: Australias First Superstar features previously unseen footage from the iconic series and a slate of new interviews including a world exclusive with Skippy herself, whose sardonic wit and lingering ego make for revealing and, at times, controversial viewing.

Fun and very engaging documentary
This is a very entertaining documentary about a timeless piece of Australian television. Skippy has aired in numerous countries around the world and been enjoyed by generations of Aussie kids. It comes from a much gentler period, and was based loosely on the Flipper series from USA. I even had some laughs during the course of the DVD.
