Expedition Tiger

Sunday, 5 February 2012 New SeriesAn expedition team comprising tiger experts, photographers, adventurers, a naturalist and a scientist, venture high into Bhutan in the Himalayas in search of big cats.

They are searching for a secret tiger population which could save the magnificent creatures from extinction.

Bhutan is a forgotten world, having been closed to outsiders for years. No one knows how many tigers prowl the jungles and mountains there.

The team of big cat experts travel through the jungle on elephants, deploying the latest camera-trapping technology and combine it with FBI fingerprinting software to identify individuals by their stripes. They even have a specially trained sniffer dog tracking down tiger dung.

Their project is ambitious and arduous, but exhilarating. They head to the peaks where they climb gorges, shoot rapids and live with yak herders, moving through mosquito-infested jungles, leech-ridden swamps and then to breathless icy summits.

Sunday, 5 February 2012

Artists Freddie Robins and Ben Coode Adams are moving from one extreme to another as they leave their cramped two bedroom London flat to take on the conversion of a huge grade two listed timber-framed barn in the Essex countryside. But at seven times the size of an average three bedroom house, turning this 500-year-old building into any kind of home is a challenge.

Transforming the home into a live/work space for themselves and their daughter Willa, Ben and Freddie's whole design is based around creating a massive free-form contemporary space with very few walls to display their ever expanding collection of toys and objects. As they begin to grapple with the sheer scale of this project they begin to question whether their quirky ideas are workable, and Kevin wonders if the cavernous barn will ever make a cosy and comfortable home.

Zen: Ratking

Sunday, 5 February 2012 FinalA glamorous Roman detective series based on the books by Michael Dibdin and starring Rufus Sewell.

In the final episode, the Italian Ministry once again turn to their favourite detective Aurelio Zen when wealthy industrialist and political party funder Ruggerio Miletti is kidnapped. They want Zen to get Miletti back alive at any cost - financial or personal.

Then Miletti's lawyer is murdered during an illegal ransom payment, and Zen discovers that the kidnappers are only part of his problem. He must also contend with the Milettis, who are no ordinary family. Nothing is as it seems: considering themselves above the law, spoilt daughter Cinzia, her ruthless husband Carlo and overlooked younger brother Silvio are scheming to gain control of the family company.

Things are no better in the office, with new Chief of Police Heuber imposing a strict moral code of conduct in the workplace, just as Zen and Tania's relationship is blossoming.

Caught up in the political minefield both inside and outside the Miletti family, Zen's life, career and reputation are on the line. Not even his admirer, powerful prosecutor Nadia Pirlo, can help him through this dilemma.

Paired with rival detective Vincenzo Fabri, who is plotting to overthrow Heuber, Zen must decide whether to play Fabri's game or uncover the truth.

Australian Story

Monday, 6 February 2012

Australian Story series 16 begins with a two-part special on a notorious hit-and-run incident that left a cyclist dead and challenged the justice system.

In 2003, prominent Adelaide lawyer Eugene McGee ran over and killed cyclist Ian Humphrey. He failed to stop after the collision and more than six hours passed before he turned himself in to police.

A witness described seeing McGee driving "like a frigging idiot" at high speed moments before the crash. McGee had consumed at least one bottle of wine over lunch that day, but he was never given a blood alcohol test by police.

After eight years, two trials and a Royal Commission, the penalty paid by McGee was a $3100 fine and the loss of his driving licence for one year.

The inside story of this notorious case is told for the first time by Di Gilcrist, Ian Humphrey's widow and their children. Gilcrist says the South Australian legal system has let down her and her family. Her campaign exposing the weaknesses of the investigation and prosecution led to major changes in the state's legislation.

Eugene McGee gives his first interview since the fatal collision in Road To Nowhere.

"It's been an unmitigated disaster for everybody, certainly for my family, clearly for Mr Humphrey's family and for all people associated with Mr Humphrey," says McGee.

Key legal, medical and political figures including the SA Victims of Crime Commissioner, the former SA Attorney General and MP Nick Zenophon also feature.

Returning Programs for 2012

Mondays from February 6

http://www.abc.net.au/austory/



8:00pm – Australian Story

Australian Story returns in 2012 with stories that are 'narrated' by the subjects themselves. The program aims to present a varied and contrasting picture of contemporary Australia and Australians from many different perspectives and to contribute to the wider spectrum of coverage of issues and individuals. It seeks to make Australians, in their diversity and individuality, more understandable to other Australians, and explores how Australians lead their lives through ordinary and extraordinary events. These stories may have greater interest or topicality when they are the stories often the hidden stories of celebrated or infamous individuals, but Australian Story will also give voice to the ordinary individuals who have lived through more than ordinary success or setback.

8:30pm - Four Corners

Four Corners is Australia's premier television current affairs program. It has been part of the national story since August 1961, exposing scandals, triggering inquiries, firing debate, confronting taboos and interpreting fads, trends and sub cultures. Four Corners will repeat the following evening at approximately 11:30pm.

9:15pm - Media Watch

Media Watch, presented by Jonathan Holmes, is Australia's leading forum for media analysis and comment. The program turns the spotlight onto those who literally 'make the news': the reporters, editors, sub-editors, producers, camera operators, sound recordists and photographers who claim to deliver the world to our doorsteps, radios, computers and living rooms. We also keep an eye on those who try to manipulate the media: the PR consultants, spin-doctors, lobbyists and 'news makers' who set the agenda. The program is repeated the following evening at approximately 12:15am.

9:35pm - Q&A

Hosted by one of the ABC's most respected journalists, Tony Jones, Q&A puts punters, pollies and pundits together in the studio to thrash out the hot issues of the week. It's about democracy in action - the audience gets to ask the questions. It doesn't matter who you are, or where you're from, everyone can have a go and take it up to our politicians and opinion makers. Q&A is live to air - it's happening as viewers watch!

Tuesdays from February 7

8:00pm - Foreign Correspondent

Foreign Correspondent has been Australia's leading international current affairs program since 1992. In 18 years reporters, producers, camera operators and sound recordists have travelled to more than 170 countries and produced more than 1,500 reports.

The program draws on the ABC's extensive network of international correspondents and a Sydney-based reporting and production team. Foreign Correspondent is designed to exploit the strengths of television - striking images and multi-track audio, a strong focus on storytelling, exotic locations and emotional appeal. Foreign Correspondent reports on major international issues but it also travels to places where reporters and camera operators are less welcome - investigating stories that governments don't want told.

Then The Wind Changed

Tuesday, 7 February 2012

On 7 February 2009, Australia suffered its worst natural disaster in recorded history. One hundred and seventy-three people died when a series of uncontrollable bush fires swept across the state of Victoria. The next day, the headlines pronounced the small rural hamlet of Strathewen, only 40 kilometres from Melbourne, 'The Valley of Death'.

The fires of Black Saturday hit Strathewen with an unparalleled ferocity, and the scale of destruction was overwhelming. Strathewen's small community suffered the highest concentration of loss of life, environment and property in the state. Survivors were linked by trauma, unimaginable grief and the weighty task of trying to understand what had happened to their worlds. There was no roadmap for recovery from a disaster of this size and no instruction manual on how to respond. After the shock of survival, just as the adrenalin finally ran dry, the real work began.

Director Celeste Geer interweaves her own family's story with the experiences of five other families and individuals from Strathewen in an intimate exploration of post disaster recovery. Through a combination of compelling home movie footage and observational material, Then The Wind Changed documents the extraordinary spectrum of human responses to the firestorm that swept through one valley. And from this delicate observation of destruction and loss, comes a quiet meditation on what it means to belong.

Gareth Malone's Extraordinary School for Boys

Tuesday, 7 February 2012 FinalInternational award winner, Choirmaster Gareth Malone teaches in a primary school in Essex in the UK for one term. His mission is to tackle the gap between girls' and boys' literacy and his final task is to tackle the boys' number one enemy - writing.

In the second part of this final episode Gareth and the boys reach the all important performance. It's been a tricky ride for Gareth as he nears the end of his experiment, but the culmination of his hard work is evident as the boys take to the stage in front of 400 or so family and friends.

At the same time he is heading towards a crucial test that will determine the success or failure of his time at the school and whether he has met the head teacher's target of improving the boys' reading age by six months in just eight weeks. When the results are in, they make fascinating reading.

Artscape: The First Interview


In Paris, August 1886, the world's first media interview occurred when the great photographer Nadar interviewed the famous scientist and sceptic Chevreul on his 100th birthday. The meeting was recorded by Nadar's son Paul as photographer and a stenographer using shorthand.

The two men discussed photography, colour theory, Moliere and Pasteur, the scientific method, the crazy ideas of balloonists, and - of course - how to live for 100 years. It was a lively and interesting conversation between two legends of the 19th century: one born before the French revolution; the other destined to see the marvels of the aeroplane and the movies.

The photographs and the original words were published in Le Journal illustré (Paris) on September 5, 1886. As a series of unposed portraits it is remarkable; as a photographic and stenographic record of an interesting and sophisticated conversation from 1886 it is unique.

Now, with the technology of the 21st century The First Interview comes to life as if a talking movie was filmed in the 19th century. Part two shows just how the impossible was achieved.

Absolutely Fabulous 20th Anniversary Specials

Wednesday, 8 February 2012

Twenty years ago the world was introduced to Edina, Patsy, Saffron, Bubble and Mother. It has never been quite the same again. As outrageous, scandalous, raucous and fashion-addicted as always, the ladies are back on screen reprising their award-winning roles in three specials - and they're going to be fabulous, darling.

Eddy worked in PR, and PR'd things. Into every new fad and fashion imaginable, she and best friend Patsy were often found to be at the bottom of a champagne glass, or more likely, bottle - and not much has changed.

Long-suffering Saffy was hardworking and the grownup of the house, all but ignored by her mother and hated by Patsy.

Now, returning to the small screen to mark this special anniversary, we see a life changing experience for one character... which invariably affects all the others.

Twenty years on the ladies are a tiny bit older, none the wiser - but definitely still Absolutely Fabulous.

In the first special, one of them has been away for some time, so there is lots of catching up to do. She returns with a new best friend, who is both a blessing and a threat to the household. It forces them closer than ever. It may even involve one of them owning up to her real age.

Outland

Wednesday, 8 February 2012 New SeriesOutland is a six-part comedy series about a gay science fiction fan club and the lives, loves and never-ending dramas of its five members.

There's Max (Toby Truslove), insecure and looking for love; the sexually-adventurous, muffin-baking Andy (Paul Ireland); Rae (Christine Anu), the moral centre and unofficial head of the group; the high-camp, high-maintenance Fab (Adam Richard); and the wealthy but socially-inept Toby (Ben Gerrard). It's an odd, and often precarious combination of personalities.

The five of them are forced to meet in each other's homes when they are unceremoniously evicted from a larger science fiction club after Andy accidentally sets someone on fire. This new intimacy reveals parts of their lives that are far too personal for a club meeting.

The group's stated purpose is to 'explore the infinite and varied concepts and ideas behind the worlds of speculative fiction through discussion and debate'. Or, in other words, to sit around watching videos. Whichever way you put it, neither of these aims is ever achieved. Every meeting collapses into chaos as the fault-lines within the group are exposed. Relationships are destroyed and hilarity ensues as secrets and skeletons come crashing out of the closet.

Episode 1: Max - Wednesday February 8 at 9.30pmMax is about to have a close encounter of the intimate kind. Dylan has invited himself in for coffee, but so has Max's science fiction club. Will Max come out as a geek? Or is he destined to remain alone in his nerdy closet?

Family Confidential


Australia's blockbuster novelist, Bryce Courtenay, plundered his own incredible life story to create his internationally bestselling books and films. But when he put the story of his son's tragic death into print, it scarred the family forever. Today, as Bryce Courtenay struggles to complete his next book, his family reveals the difficult and complex truths behind the larger-than-life fiction.

"He's a great storyteller. If truth is a problem there, well whose truth?" Celeste Coucke, Bryce's daughter-in-law.

For the past twenty years, Bryce Courtenay has reigned supreme as Australia's bestselling novelist. It's said that every home has at least one of his books on the shelf; and every year, he writes a novel for Christmas that generates ten million dollars for the Australian publishing industry.

This is the story of a man conditioned from childhood to win, and who discovered himself in his imagination. But the journey has come at a cost.

For Bryce, a good story always comes first. His work takes precedence over everything. It means there is little time to spare for his family - and even his new bride sees little of him when he's working. And, when he wrote about his own family's tragedy, everyone suffered the consequences.

Nothing has stopped him - until now. In 2011, fate dealt Bryce a cruel blow. Ill health has cost him a deadline. For the first time in twenty years, there was no Bruce Courtenay blockbuster in the bookshops for Christmas, and a man for whom stories are life, faces an uncertain future.

Minder: Better The Devil You Know

Saturday, 11 February 2012

The British comedy-drama about London's criminal underworld - made famous in the 70s for putting the slang word 'Minder' into Australian and UK conversation - returns to the small screen.

This revamped series follows the escapades of Archie Daley (played by Shane Richie), a socially ambitious but highly unscrupulous importer-exporter, wholesaler, used-car salesman, and anything else from which there is money to be made.

Archie ropes in the honest and unlucky taxi driver Jamie Cartwright (played by Lex Shrapnel) to help him with one of his 'jobs', ultimately becoming Archie's 'minder'.

Their first encounter is followed by shady business deals and a highly entertaining series of events.

Episode One: Better the Devil You Know Taxi driver Jamie is roped into helping Archie out of a fix with the infamous Gold brothers. Archie promises to persuade local landlady, Petra (played by Jenna Russell), to sell her pub as part of a huge redevelopment. When persuasion doesn't work, the Golds supply Archie with lots of cash to make her budge.

Archie is also under pressure from bent councillor, Conway, to seal the deal. Archie manages to convince Jamie that if he helps him he'll make it worth his while.

Can the pair pull it off in time and will it be enough to save Petra's pub from demolition or Archie from further retribution?
