[Mishmash] Flying Doctors Opening Credits

[Fred Atkinson]

David, 

    A one off is an Aussie term I haven't heard.  Enlighten me.  ;-)

    Is the series still running?  I'd like to know.  

    Stay in touch.  
    
    Regards, 



                                                                Fred

  Well Fred, it was a Crawford production.  This is what  I found:   

   

  http://www.crawfords.com.au/libary/drama/flyingdocs.shtml

   

  6 hour mini-series produced in 1984 (2 hours x 3)

  Executive Producers: Hector Crawford, Ian Crawford & Terry Stapleton

  Producers: Charles Tingwell & Graham Moore

  Associate Producer: Mike Lake

  Director: Pino Amenta

  Writers: Terry Stapleton & Vince Moran

   

  Filmed on location at Nulla Station in the far west of New South Wales, Minyip in the wheatlands of north-west Victoria & Mundi Mundi Plains on the South Australian border beyond Broken Hill

   

   

  That suggests it was a one off.

   

  Cheers

   

  David

  David, 

   

      I was told it went into a new season.  Are you sure about that?  

   

      I got a copy of the original Flying Doctors movie on Ebay some years back.  Later, I got six of the television episodes.  It's never been shown in The States.  But it has been shown in Europe and other parts of the world, I'm told.  

   

      I think it's fantastic.  With all of the junk we have on our cable channels here, I don't understand why they don't put The Flying Doctors on one of them.  

   

      Regards, 

   

   

   

                                                                      Fred
