  • The Top End of Australia is a fascinating place during the wet season. Les Hiddins takes us on a journey through Arnhem Land, the Gulf Country and Cape York Peninsula. He finds bush tucker including tennis ball fruit and a native grape. In exploring the wet lands of Cape York, Les shows us that even he gets bogged sometimes. Finally, he resorts to building a canoe from tree bark to explore an inland lake.
    'Bush Tucker Man: Wet Season' first aired on the ABC in 1990.

    Keep it coming ABC. I remember the show back when I was a pup and the old boy watched it all the time. Now it's my turn to watch it with my young bloke 👍

    Still such a great show, Shame this sort of thing is not taught in schools and such. Basic bush survival and bush tucker.

    • @matthewcullen1298
      @matthewcullen1298 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It would teach more than that to I reckon. Teach kids a bit of healthy self sufficiency and healthy respectful confidence.

    9:12 "I've never seen a mosquito that big, 90 gallons yeah, but not 100". Classic. 🤣

    May a Pommie may be excused for saying “Bonza, good on you, ABC”!

      @SuperRoo_22 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've actually never heard anyone say "Bonza" here. And it should be "good onya". Not hving a go at you though mate. Les Hiddins is a national treasure. Glad you enjoyed watching. 👍

    In the year 2022, with so many influenza's, ooops, I mean (social; media) influencers talking so much BS, just how refreshiing is it to watch something like this, with someone being so "natural" and knowledgeable.
    What an absolute legend Les Hiddins is, and also what a great example for the current crop of influenza's to take note, and learn, from.

    Bush Tucker Man was my all time fav gowning up in the 80's/90's, I loved David Attenborough of course, but Les and is pure Australian way of explaining and doing things will always be a part of me :)

    Such a beautiful country, gee it's great living here.
    My Dad spent the 1960's and 1970's living up near Cape York, QLD. Very remote. He worked for CSIRO. Les Hiddins was ex-Army and came up there to learn, and my Dad helped teach him some useful things to do to survive up in the tropical Cape. Dad's a humble fella, now retired, but it's good to know that half a decade ago, as young lads, they were up there!

    they used to put these programmes on the British channel 4 on a Sunday.
    gave a mellow glow to the day.

    You can tell how much a bush tucker man knows by the size of his hat. The bigger the brim the bigger the expert.

    There is also a pilot episode.
    I collected the whole lot on DVD years ago. Video before that.
    I always remember that one of the videos was sent from Oz (to the UK) and was owned by someone who died. His wife sold it to me.
