How television should be. Both very interesting and educational too. Love these old reruns and it is also nice to see beautiful weather from back here in the rainy UK. Good health to you Les.
I met Les Hiddins ( the bush tucker man ) up at Cape York Peninsula back 1980s we took him out bush and showed him bush food we stayed for coulpe of nights before heading back to the Community
cool stuff...
"Crikey I hope so" lol
Gotta love the Bush Tucker Man! Would watch this as a kid, and now I'm 35, havnt seen anything come close to this legend showing us the Australian outback.
Parked and walked up to a lagoon between Pine Creek and Yellow waters about 1985.Standing looking at bird life, only thing in sitght, Charlies monster reared its impressive head right in front of me! How you get terrified while your brain is trying to process an answer. A big bull browsing on waterlillies and such, on bottom of the waterhole completely submerged like a bloody hippo, then coming up for a breath..perfect timing, I had been there for 5 minutes , Thank you ABC, for replaying this series.
I was a young adult when this series was on air, and didn't mind watching them as I was literally brought up on nature programs so they were my entertainment. Watching them, now, on RUclips; I'm finding them so fascinating with the historical stories that Les brought to life (which didn't resonate with the younger me as much as the scenery). Thank you for showing these again and teaching me some history. I especially liked the ending... nice touch!
He has put All his Work online now..just fantastic the way people learn n learn from programs such as these .. legend
Timeless. Thanks les and his cameraman!!
Les and Malcolm Douglas showed Australia to the world. They did this in a way that was respectful to the indigenous people. In fact both learned a great deal from Aboriginals and shared that with us.
It's sad to know that after this episode, there is only one more episode left. Thank you ABC for sharing the entire 3 seasons.
literally watching this one over again because of this
The closing commentary recognising the pivotal role of aboriginal guides was good..A very interesting story well told
Like most im very sad to know the next episode is the last in les series of bush tucker man but i thank you so much abc for re-releasing theses because you have brought les show to the older and newer generations and as someone that is 24 now and wasnt even born when this show had finished im so greatful to have watched theses over the last few months i orginally only found out about this show through my dad showing and talking to me about it and im glad he did because ive enjoyed this journey the whole way and i hope les knows he still inspires many people like myself ♥
its so awesome how you can learn about other cultures from the comfort of your own home. don't get me wrong I would much rather experience other cultures, but being a working man with meager means this is the best i can do for now.
I believe this series was first aired in the eighties, absolutely amazing stuff, brilliantly presented by les hiddins hope he’s still fit and well👍
Thank you ABC for putting all these awesome episodes up!
As a Ham Radio operator, I can tell you that atmospherics and sun spot activity can really effect Ham Radio operations. One minute a band can be wide open, the next, shut down hard. But its still a decent way to communicate over long distance.
Love the fact that Leichhardt named places etc after ordinary folk and events. British explorers named discoveries after Gentry and Superior Officers, maybe to curry favours. I like the river named Comet after seeing a comet one night, also discovered coal in Central Qld.
They were named because they were hero's.
I have been a fan since l was very young, done some years in the army myself. I can still sit down with a good cuppa and watch all his documentaries over and over. Absolute legend in my books.
The abc should rerun the entire series these programs are very educational
Another great episode with some great history of our country.
What a great story mate, thanks for sharing that and cheers to the bush Tucker man , les your a legend..🐾
Absolutely loved this sires especially being new to Australia. Helped me understand the Australian aboriginals and Australians people.
Australian legend. Thanks ABC, you guys are alright too.
Bush Tucker (Les Hiddens) is a truly great Australian
Fantastic. And 'Charlie don't surf!'
Great bit of history and most enjoyable arm chair travel!
On ya Charley! 💪👍🏻🙏🦘
By this episode Les had been upgraded with his transportation. Happened a few bits back. Yes I have always wondered about the camera bit. I understand it and they did it very well for the show, but there you go..he is not alone.
This comment is also dedicated to Charlie.
You can’t beat Les.
not unless he asks
Les wholesome as always. The world is so anti colonialism now that it’s trying hard to forget and destroy these stories and discredit them (not true colonialism here per say but you get the point) Yet so much of the stories les tells is about cooperation of different cultures back then in reality.
Still a great series
What a wonderful set of videos I've been ching n RUclips from the UK I'm a country boy but I have never seen ccntry ike the Bush before and I find it very interesting & may be oneday in the future I may be able to visit your beautiful country
Your a legend les hiddens not many blokes like you you kiked something off in me thankyou
Right on, Charlie, right on! 😐
Best educational video's
Great show Less
Ya a good man Les. Cheers mate.
Watched several of these enjoyable educational theme music is great too
What an absolute Australian icon. Back when men were men.
Interesting video
Thank you ABC for this.... now if you could only re-release all the old episodes of Recovery, miss being 21 and the festival scene of 1997 haha.
i bought recovery on dvd at jb hifi. came with 4 cds. look into it. 😉
Onya Les
Nice
what happened to Les Hiddens? Why did this amazing show end??
because you had to get up, and get out there and see it for yourself like a big boy neo.
We will always try and impose our will on the land!
It is great learning about the history of our nation and those early settlers and explorers, but the series really did steer away from learning about "Bush Tucker" which was the whole point of what the show was about. Unfortunately this is what happens when these great shows get extra funding, get slicker in production and have all these extra people and producers working on the show - the show changes and many times they lose sight of the true essence of what the show was meant to be about. And those changes are not always for the best.
Les was contracted through the Army to research and log bushtucker for printing on maps for survival purposes; hence his Army attire and vehicle. After leaving the Army, the later shows are in his own vehicle as noted by a keen observer.
Les obviously changed the thrust of his shows into retracing the steps of early pioneers. You can find and read Leichhardt’s book online. 👍🏻🙏🦘
Watching these TV episodes from the past, has made it so blatantly clear, how much TV content has massively declined.
Did he really drink un purified unboiled water straight from that Creek I find that hard to believe for a survival expert
Crocks ? You there ? lol
I got stuffed down that way,almost lost my truck .
So where do I get a hat like yours?
What style is that hat? It is unlike the traditional Aussie bush hat.
It's an akubra sombrero customised using steam to reshape the crown and brim.
I've got one myself
hahahaha goodby Charly
…Choked me 🆙.,@ zé end, there Sårge.., aargh., toÖ much salt 🫰🏽🥲
Arnhem is in holland ❤️👍🏻🤠
I don't understand why you would give yourself schedules and specific times you imagined you would reach A to B when planning on the other side of the world...Surely it would make more sense with these early expeditions to keep things open ended because you have no clue what will happen and giving yourself deadlines must just add an extra level of stress for no particular reason..
aboriginals had a "net zero" society, and we killed them, now we want a net zero society.😂😭
I don't like the cattle got handled
there not yabbies they are cherrabin thought bush tucker man would have known the difference
Maybe back then they were all called yabbies like squid/calamari thing
he was testing you guy relax
lol vhf is so out dated now days
golf country 🙈
absolutely fascinating! what a great story ! thanks ABC. 📡🌳🏞️🛻📹🤙😎🌅🇦🇺
