Did anyone see this show last week? I downloaded it from iTunes during the week and loved it!! It features an all indigenous cast and the storyline kept me glued to the screen.
It's on again tonight on ABC 1 at 8.30pm if anyone is interested and I think Debra Mailman will be featured in an episode soon (not sure if that is tonight's episode or not). |

Yes, I watched it. I love Leah Purcell
 . I'd be watching it now if I didn't have an assignment to do. It's great to see these stories told on ABC rather than SBS. Now... when is one of the commercial networks going to grow a pair and a drama or comedy about/by Aboriginal people? And Ernie Dingo on The Great Outdoors doesn't count. |

I loved it last week I felt so much for the mum who had to cancel her Bali trip and those poor kids. I am trying to watch it now but DD15 is doing her homework and won't shut up and when you have teenagers you have to talk when you can

If there is an Aussie show about pretty much anything, it's guaranteed that Debra Mailman will end up in it at some point.

I watched this tonight by accident (couldn't handle watching BATG). Thought it was great - well written and beautifully shot. Will be catching up during the week on the rest of the series.
