Watch out for ‘Skippy – Australia’s first Super Star’. It’s surprising it has taken this long to eventuate, but finally there will be a documentary paying homage to our very own Skippy the Bush Kangaroo.
WA’s Electric Pictures, which created the documentaries The Hunt for HMAS Sydney and Gallipoli’s Submarine, will produce the doco. ‘Skippy is an iconic star for many Australians of a certain age,’ said executive producer Andrew Ogilvie. ‘He was watched by millions of us and many more millions overseas. He was one of the very first characters to make it overseas. It was sold in more than 100 countries.’
Skippy: Australia’s First Superstar will tell the inside story of the television series starring the crime-fighting kangaroo, which hit screens during a time of social revolution. Click here to check out the story www.tvtonight.com.au/2008/08/skippy-australias-first-superstar.html

For all my fans out there they may be interested to know that I am
still getting a small piece of gratitude from the show with my song ‘Rolling Along’ that was in the serries. Amazing after all these years.
