My wife and I have just finished watching the second of the 3 discs..We are enjoying the insights presented but feel that now by episode 7 there is no need to repeat so much of the preamble before you get to the next part. Episode 7 did not play without pausing many times before continuing,must be a stubborn finger mark on the disc. Too big a programme to absorb in one sitting; so we are spacing it out as we continue on our own trip from Newcastle to Brisbane and Gladstone. Looking forward to watching all the way to the end and then doing a repeat.

Fun DVD but each episode starts with at least 3 minutes of the previous episodes and finishes with what's in the next episode. A bit like Masterchef. Hard to tell when they actually did their big lap? We watched it with our 3 kids and in the first episode they flip the car and trailer (sorry for the spoiler). The Mum keeps repeating "I think I've killed my kids" This is repeated beore every episode. By the end my kids started saying they don't want to do a big lap. Good lessons though.

We found this DVD to be very interesting while not boring, the interaction between everyone is wonderful. I haven't given 5 stars because we thought some places could have been included that weren't and a little more time in other places would have been good. Probably would have meant one more DVD added to the mix but apart from that it has been very enjoyable.

We are planning a big lap around Australia, so we bought this DVD to get some useful information about such a trip. Apart from the amazing amount of advice, the DVD is just simply entertaining, the family is so humble and real, it's so fun to watch this series. Highly recommended for anyone who want to see Australia's beautiful nature and also want to have a laugh.

Have only just started watching it, but so far it is awesome. Just love the fact nothing is scripted, just a great Aussie family on the trip of a lifetime. It is something I have always wanted to do but I have a wife that has zero interest in the great outdoors or camping. Have a 4WD which has seen some bush tracks but I go with a mate who also appreciates what a magnificent country we have. Why go overseas to spend your dollars when there is so much to offer here in our own backyard. I am old enough to remember the Leyland Brothers, your DVD reminds me so much of their adventures.

Not enough information on towns and attractions along the way., it would have been good to have some more details of the communities passed through. Too much footage of open roads and bare landscape which everyone knows outback Australia is like anyway.

Watch the big lap became a nightly family event for us and we were all a bit sad when it finished. We loved joining the Baile family on their trip and found the film both entertaining and informative.
