Abba: Bang-a-Boomerang
- 2012
- Documentary
- 55mins
- Status: Completed
Of all the ripping yarns of entertainment in Australia, by far the most fascinating is that of the relationship between ABBA and Australia in the 1970s. The story behind ABBA's arrival on the world stage centres on Australia and has never been told. The only clue we have of the band's fondness for us is the strangely named song Bang-a-Boomerang. We now return the favour with a documentary of the same name – a humorous, passionate and poignant evocation of ABBA's time in Australia.
Bundy's Last Great Adventure
- 2000
- Documentary
- 55mins
- Status: Completed
BUNDY'S LAST GREAT ADVENTURE follows the final journey out of retirement of a 2-foot gauge locomotive (collectively known as 'Puffing Billys') from its current home at the Australian Narrow Gauge Railway Museum in Woodford, to the banks of the the Daintree River north of Mossman in Far North Queensland, Australia. Shot in stunningly beautiful countryside in tropical North Queensland, 'Bundy' is a small, cantankerous steam locomotive, which was built in 1951 in the Bundaberg Foundry, and served as a 'sugar-train', hauling cane from farm to mill.
Crown of Thorns
- 2004
- Documentary
- 55mins
- Status: Completed
Crown of Thorns Starfish have been a source of almost continual controversy on the Great Barrier Reef for the last 15 years. Major peril or cyclical phenomena? That's what scientists have been discussing, arguing and indeed procrastinating about in laboratories and at conferences all over the world. Meanwhile, the Australian Government has stepped back, hoping and wanting to believe that the cheapest option (ie. to let nature run its course) is the correct one. But as one scientist puts it, 'if you put two scientists in one room you'll end up with three questions!'
Hell No We Won't Go
- 2015
- Documentary
- 57mins
- Status: Production
In the 1960's and 70's a small group of Australians agitated for the end of conscription of young men to serve in the Vietnam War. This small group became a mass movement that caused the Menzies era Liberal/Country Party to lose power. This documentary looks at the personal cost of the activists by resisting conscription.

Our Marine Turtles are mysteriously disappearing. When Australian marine scientist Dr Col Limpus started releasing many thousands of newly hatched turtles into the waters of the Great Barrier Reef they should have reappeared 15 years later as young adults. But they didn't! They simply disappeared. The answer to the 'disappeared' is to be found in the Mediterranean and in the waters off Peru and Chile, half a world away.
