Still Stroppy Beggars

Having achieved Federation, who are these people today? What exactly is an Aussie? In the final episode of Tony's exploration, he looks at the legacy of 222 years of British settlement. How did the country founded as a penal colony grow into a nation? And where are its loyalties today? Tony takes us to the true birthplace of The Ashes, helps re-create the first powered flight by an Australian, goes on a legal Fox Hunt (one of the most incongruous sights on the Australian landscape), takes a spin with invention buff James O'Loughlin in the first model Ute, retraces The Dismissal with cartoonist Warren Brown, and interrogates former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd about his convict past. From this, Tony reaches his own conclusions about how the past has influenced the Australia of today….and where it's heading tomorrow.
