06:45Good color that most Aussies make you like cat pedal capital
06:51You don't sound like Harold Macmillan
06:54Yeah, we're not we're not close friends. I heard him on the wireless. He's all la-dee-da
07:05Do you miss home
07:07Sometimes I
07:10Miss my brother
07:12Some of my friends
07:14And we had a house back there. They were in a hostel better than this place. I'd imagine
07:22Well, yeah, we lived somewhere else
07:26After my husband died this is all I could afford
07:32I'm gonna have a word with the boss
07:34See if I can't get it all fixed up for you, mr. Bates. Yeah
07:37Hmm
07:59Oh my goodness, this is what happens when you combine fantastic heels with hazardous tears
08:04It looks bad that you in pain I flirted with the doctor to get some morphine
08:10I'm floating on a cloud most of the day. Sorry to ask you. Sorry to ask honestly
08:16Anyone who think we're complete strangers?
08:18What is it?
08:20Do you have a telephone directory I could use need to help Kate? Oh
08:24Annie can't take on everyone else's problems
08:28But there is something I need you to help me with
08:34Meg's husband Donald
08:36Still owns 50% of the store
08:40They walked out hasn't shown a minute's interest and then out of the blue. I get a letter that he's sending auditors in him
08:47Right. Is that a problem? Yes
08:50The books are in chaos
08:53The books are in chaos, I've overspent on stock and if he sees him in the red he'll panic and want out
09:01I'm not really in a position to buy out his half. He can't audit without me there. So
09:09This little accident has bought me some time
09:12Marlene you did not do that on purpose
09:15That is madness
09:17You could have really hurt yourself, what were you thinking he walked out on me Annie
09:22and he had a kid with
09:23fat ankles free to feed a child
09:27That business is the only thing I have to show for the years I put up with that useless pig
09:37Anyway until I get back on my feet Annie Roberts you're in charge
09:43Me it's you or Eileen Butler and between you and me. I think Eileen's got a drink problem
09:48Well, okay. Um telephone and directory. We're in the hall as many calls as you like
09:56It's a shame she's not married couldn't deport her then
10:01Couldn't deport her then
10:11Says here you were supposed to travel with Henry Broad
10:16He changed his mind
10:20Not really because he came over just a few months later
10:26He's a complicated man
10:29You said Michael was taken from you in England, but my understanding is he was in a children's home I
10:36Had I was having problems
10:40After he was born I
10:44That was very down I was struggling
10:51So, how did he end up in Australia because the charity that helped me
10:56In the children's best interests
11:00Send them thousands of miles away
11:03and
11:05Then they sold Michael my son. They sold him to that family in return for a large donation
11:13Okay
11:14I really am
11:16This is a very serious situation. The rules of your scheme clearly state that a criminal conviction will result in immediate deportation
11:26Please please
11:29If you send me home, you'd be like ripping out my heart I
11:34took him back I
11:37Took him back and I gave them my child
11:40All I asked for was some weekends and she agreed
11:46And then she stabbed me in the back
11:56I
11:58Seems your fiance is here asking to see you
12:05I don't want to see him. He's yes
12:18Where is he?

14:45Benny

15:00Joan you'll do clothing Victoria haberdashery and I'll take home and garden and we have to count every single item
15:07Yes
15:08That is generally how a stock tape works, Victoria
15:38God

15:54Annie yes
15:58There are 500 pairs of them
16:01What the bloody hell? Oh

17:09Dan Poric arrived today, so go on a bus to meet him. There's three become five. We've allocated huts

17:33You've a very gray aura you have a sad emotional life
17:45Here they come
18:03Park
18:27Wish it all
18:33Oh
18:39Sydney
18:41Oh
19:00Poor bugger never set foot on the soil
19:03Why on earth do they want to keep his body in their heart? It's tradition from pagan times
19:08Well tell them they can have him for one day no alcohol
19:13You tell them I'm sorry. You're the one running things around here now, so you tell them
19:23Why do they keep sending these backward people here probably how the Aborigines felt back in the 1700s
19:39Oh
19:42Under the command of naval captain Arthur Philip
19:45The fleet sought to establish a penal colony on the coast of New South Wales
19:50Which had been claimed as British by lieutenant James Cook in?
19:541770 the majority of convicts were transported for petty crimes
19:59London and other British cities were dirty
20:03overcrowded and filled with the unemployed and the drunk
20:06The government wanted to send them elsewhere out of Britain many struggled with homesickness
20:14starvation and ill health
20:17Only one in six of the convicts were women
20:22But on arrival some soon fell pregnant and would create new life in the country
20:28by 1789
20:30The colony was on the verge of collapse
20:32Captain Phillips struggled to keep peace and order
20:41Sorry floggings and hangings were
20:46As captain Philip wrote
20:49As he wrote at the time in his journal. I am NOT a pomegranate
21:02Oh
21:07Let me
21:33Okay, okay, can we you quickly
21:43Sweetheart I really wish you told me you were gonna do this. Everyone's so worried about you
21:50And he keeps ringing
21:53Well tell her that I'm fine we all just want you home
22:02You
22:12So
22:13Mr. Carter
22:15You have a wedding imminent and plans for children of your own
22:19That's right more than enough to make an appeal to the assisted migration scheme on the basis that
22:24my future wife
22:26will become an outstanding Australian citizen and in the longer term a
22:31Procreator of Australian children, but how can we be sure that there won't be a repeat of the Michael incident there won't be
22:38I'll give you my word with all respect miss Thorne. I'm gonna need more than just your word
22:47Like what I
22:52Need you to sign this restraining order
23:00Of
23:12My dead body
23:30They say it's snowing in England
23:41Three two one
23:45Looks amazing
23:48Can't wait for any to see all this what's she like you're Annie
23:55She's strong clever
24:01Gorgeous it was her idea to come out here. It's nice to hear a man talk proudly of his wife
24:07It's rare look around at the party, and you'll see powerful men with beautiful women on their arms, but
24:14That's all they want them to be on their arm
24:17I'm all for them. I'd be bloody lost without my girl
24:30They're all staring what if they call the police
24:43You like them they do they like them
24:53Hello Marlene, it's Annie. I've got a slightly outrageous idea
25:00Okay girls
25:07And he says that someone called our window display pornographic has to be worth a little item of the day I
25:15like the controversy
25:17The bikinis look fantastic, but the mannequin it's not really enough. What if we added in another element?
25:24Here
25:26In Corburn on the high street Wilson's department store is causing quite the stir and this is why
25:36And here at the beach not everyone was pleased to see this Hollywood trend arriving down under your
25:43Disgrace mrs. Annie Roberts assistant manager at the store. What would you say to people who say these bikinis are?
25:51inappropriate
25:54Just
26:04Peter
26:07What you doing there
26:11Nothing doesn't look like nothing
26:16What's happened
26:20I've been thinking and
26:22If England sent over convicts and those convicts had babies and
26:27Their babies had babies and their babies are yes, I get the idea. Yes
26:32Then there's a chance that some of the kids in the summer camp are descended from thugs and criminals. I
26:41Suppose yes, yeah that explains things come here
26:48You're all right
26:52We're having a wait tomorrow for that I know you didn't know him but
26:59We'd like you all to come along
27:02I'm very sorry about your father. I mean my husband have an engagement
27:07What about you?
27:09um
27:11The the Dutch are having an Australia Day party, but I don't be songs
27:16Dancing see the haunted
27:19I
27:21Okay
27:24Great
27:50I
27:52Wish you told me it was gonna be this dressy
27:54Talking about see is that where they used to said dressy. He said dressy didn't say dressy dressy. Did you?
27:59Never mind. How are these politicians then?
28:03Might there be someone here that can help Kate someone influential in immigration. Listen, let's let's not go around asking you
28:09This is a big deal. I don't want anything to be trouble
28:11I
28:15Leave our government want to be your population
28:18You know what?
28:18My policy would be get Aussies to screw more and give us the ten pounds for wine and beer you'll have
28:24Babies pop it out left right and center. Well, me and my family are very grateful for the opportunity
28:31Very welcome, but if it were up to me, I'd pull up the drawbridge can fill them up with piranhas
28:37Why is that?
28:40It's good for the mayor to hear the views of his constituents
28:42Well, the population of Australia is the same as the population of London
28:47You've got this very big beautiful country, but it needs more people
28:54Well
28:57All I can say to that is
29:00Terry impregnate this woman
29:03Start tonight populate or perish
29:05I
29:07Have a good evening
29:11Well, what a character
29:14And he would you mind if I borrowed your husband for a moment
29:17I'll be back
29:19Your job tonight is to make sure that that man has a very good evening

31:03Rover
31:15Well, I'll go and find the party
31:33They said it couldn't be done yet here we are days away from the winning design being announced in a few years time
31:41Right here on been a long point a new opera house and concert hall will be built
31:52Finally
31:53Australia's leading city and artists including the Sydney Symphony Orchestra
31:58Who are represented here tonight will have a facility that matches their international fame
32:04This work on been a long point is one of the many steps
32:24We meet again

32:28What a coincidence. This is my wife Elaine and this is
32:32Don't tell me it's Annie Roberts. I'm the second we did yesterday
32:35Yes, the thing is I've not yet told my husband about said segment. So if we could your secret sex with me
32:43Thank you until tomorrow
32:45When we broadcast the entire country
32:50George

33:42I've commissioned the artist to paint me Ayers rock
33:46Do you know it I?
33:48Don't named after Henry Ayers
33:50Proper politician if only today's not held such high standards
34:05Charles Mellon running for mayor against our friend Samuel
34:10He has a beautiful family at home
34:12He's a hypocrite Terry a hypocrite and a liar
34:16Why are you playing me?
34:20I'm a businessman. I don't meddle in politics until politics meddles with me
34:25Now a big part of his campaign is supposed housing reform and if he gets his way your little asthma boy
34:31He'll be out in the street
34:35I'm not following. Well, I'll be so much red tape. No one will be able to keep their rents low
34:41But he's just playing politics Terry with the end of getting votes from certain communities. Maybe likely to get into power. There's a chance
34:48He's smooth people like him I need to be insulated either way it goes I'm gonna need your help with this one
34:56How how just a little pushback
35:02For the greater good

47:03This will break her heart
47:06This will break my children's hearts is that when you want
47:12It goes away if you change your housing position
47:17You think Benny Bates is
47:19interested in society's vulnerable
47:22Any Bates is interested in two things pounds and pence
47:26Meanwhile those people in his houses are living in disease-ridden death traps
47:32I don't like doing this
47:34But I need to take back an answer
47:42Tell him
47:52I'll do as he asks but one day you and mr. Bates will have blood on your hands
48:02You
48:14Here in Corburn on the high street Wilson's department store is causing quite the stir and this is why
48:24Underwear in the shop window
48:26Except it's not underwear. It's something called the bikini and it's all the rage in Hollywood
48:33Mrs. Annie Roberts
48:37What would you say to people who say these bikinis are inappropriate and should be banned well, I'd say
48:44Look at the men on this beach
48:46At least half of them are wearing no top and very small trunks. Well, I suppose the difference is if I can put it
48:53So bluntly mrs. Roberts, they don't have breasts. Yes, but we're covered up
48:59And I think women and girls should be able to wear what they want as long as we remain dignified
49:05Put some clothes on yourself. I've got clothes on
49:09More than you. Well that man does not understand fashion and the way the world is changing
49:15Well for what it's worth, I think you all look very Hollywood and I feel well a little overdressed
49:23All this a lot of walking to the store another can I get another yes
49:53You
50:24You
50:28You are not allowed
50:31To come within three miles of Michael's home or Michael's school

50:41Until he reaches the age of adulthood
50:45Which in the state of New South Wales is 21
50:49Any breach of these conditions

50:55arrest an
50:56immediate entry into the deportation process
