KANGAROO DUNDEE
A BBC Natural World SPECIAL for BBC2
BBC / BBC Worldwide / Animal Planet
2x1 Hour
A quirky, humorous and touching film. A 'love-letter' to one of the world's most bizarre and beguiling creatures; captured with a cast of human characters and stories that only Australia’s red-hot centre of Alice Springs can assemble.
This hugely entertaining, smash hit BBC Natural World Special, is told by an extraordinary man called Brolga who dedicates his life to saving, mothering and teaching red kangaroo orphan joeys for release back to the wilds of the Australian Outback.

REVIEWS
"Unless I’m very much mistaken, this week saw the birth of a new heart-throb/TV fancy-piece: Brolga – just “Brolga” – a typically tough, laconic Australian, who lives in the OUTBACK raising orphaned, baby kangaroos. Yeah, that’s right – he’s a ripped 6ft 7in Aussie dude, He’s into animals –and he’s Sexy. This then is Hor n Free. He is David Attenborphwoargh."
