In this program we feature a mob of Eastern Grey kangaroos that make their home on a beach, the highlights of the city of Longreach including the original Qantas headquarters, part 2 of the Two Tims’ car rally adventure and the spectacular Bungle Bungle Ranges in Western Australia. Greg witnesses a playful mob of Eastern Grey kangaroos that live by the beach and grass on the New South Wales south coast. As the joeys erratically bound around the mature kangaroos eat grass on people’s lawns. Greg travels to Longreach and delights in its many claims to fame. Rural Australian life is brought alive at the Stockman’s Hall of Fame. After viewing artifacts from yesteryear meet a real Aussie stockman, Rusty Frame, as he recounts the golden era of outback life and his encounters with bush legend RM Williams. Greg visits the original Qantas headquarters of Qantas where he runs on the wing of a 747 jumbo jet. The Two Tims manage to make it from Longreach to Ballina in the last leg of the Great Escape Car Rally, despite their forty year old vehicle breaking down and needing a mechanical overhaul.
