I love your show you really made my day when I was young. I appreciate all that you put into your shows. The thing I’m astounded about now is the change in the out back honestly we travelled by bus right through the back of Queens land and up to Darwin and then back down through the middle to Adelaide, me and all 5 children didn’t see anything but dirt, there were no trees no hills of rock no grasses or water anywhere, it was just flat dirt. It’s incredible to see the difference in what vegetation was there, altho Australia changes so dramatically and at a whim
worth watching, there is also a doco researching lasseters life and interviewing his son etc is intresting as shows him in adelaide only 6 months before he discovered the reef,short time in those days for 16/17 yr old with no money or exsperince to get into that country, sounds very likely had only heard about it but not found it,shame as his son has spent his life time looking for it
Best about bush tucker it's like a giant supermarket and I read the book of the Australian outback adventures with bush tucker man Les Higgins and maybe one day in the future I might do a bush tucker series of my own and I seen places of bit of Australia
I've seen it. Found it way back when, was kicking round those parts as a teenager. Can show anyone who's keen, just need some money for supplies though. Few grand should cover it, you can wire it thru and I'll meet ya in Alice with a couple camels. Scouts honour✌ Any takers??
If Lasseter really found this gold when he was seventeen, why didn't he grab a few kilos of it? Then he'd have plenty of money to go back later. Doesn't make sense. I think he made it all up.

In September 2011, the state of Texas abolished all special last meal requests after condemned prisoner Lawrence Russell Brewer requested a huge last meal and did not eat any of it, saying he was not hungry. The meal consisted of two chicken-fried steaks with gravy and sliced onions; a triple-patty bacon cheeseburger with fixings on the side; a cheese omelet with ground beef, tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, and jalapeños; a bowl of fried okra with ketchup; a pound of barbecued meat with half of a loaf of white bread; three fully loaded fajitas; a pizza topped with pepperoni, ham, beef, bacon, and sausage; a pint of Blue Bell ice cream; a slab of peanut-butter fudge topped with crushed peanuts; and three root beers.

Another brilliant program from Les Hiddins. Interesting and down to earth . Just the job 👍🇬🇧
Les Hiddins is just brilliant. Really miss him on TV.
Such a shame there was only 3 seasons of his show !

I grew up watching this show in the late 80's.
These shows take me back to my childhood. 🙏
Great Clip Les, miss watching your shows in the 80's.
Sadly out of rocking such beautiful scenery...
Then, technology back then they had the best available then
Still a great video
Really love watching these. Making me pine to go back there..
I know, I haven't gone to the centre since 2002 - gotta get back there again ..
Mr hiddins followed him for many years a hero
Got this on DVD might watch it again tonight!😀👍⛏️⚖️💰🥇🏜️🐪🐍🦎🇦🇺
Bloody good show old mate you little ripper! Aye!
Year Sheila, love to join him on one of some of his trips and throw some roo on the barbie.
I would wager that ol' Lassiter was thoroughly sick of that landscape before he expired.
Especially because he'd only read about it in books ! Central Australia is HORRIBLE ! lol
Ahh, back in the day when these shows were actually real...
Here! Here!
Reality TV was actually real...
Too right mate..
it's actually "hear, hear" but either way it's the stupidest expression/phrase/whatever the fuck it is
I love watching getaway on a Sunday afternoon haha
Excellent tv program, no bullshit.
Jacking up a landrover while lying underneath it in sand! Jeez Les, not the smartest thing you've ever done.

Such a great series, what do we have now zilch.

Doesn't make sense. I think he made it all up.
He was a conman that probably thought if he could only get out they were ‘bound’ to find something.
was a good show when it was on
We all know he'd be vilified today and not even get on tv. Thanks for the upload.
Why ?
Me to he is Deadly lov watching 👀..
"We had an accident." "What'd it cost you?" "Two camels." Now that's a country.
Yeah, Les is a legend. No doubt about it.
How he kept his trousers clean beyond me
@9:50
Him: About to repair a flat tire, "I'd like a dollar for every time if done this job."
Me: Sitting on the couch, "Ummmmmm. I'd have a dollar."
“See that lump of rock there”

Christmas🎄❄️2021
They ever find this "Gold Reef"? Has any one?
Like the name no works given
34h is the best class
when you think about it
so its east of alice springs.....im off!
👍
If he found the gold what went of it today.
Steve’s mentor
Peter Pan of the Kimberly's
Land Rover safe he not taken wheel off
lasseter had a long history of being a con man.
That’s what I thought
If only they new to mine the 1930 penny there decedents would be loaded now !
I wonder if this place actually exists
Probably not
Video is of very poor quality. It looks like someone recorded a tv program with a potato phone
Lasseter was a con man. Simple as that. His history is speckled with con, after con, after con.
thanks for clearing that up...thousands before you couldnt......but you know everything cheers.
pfffff.
