 Changi Episodes 1-6
| Changi is a story of Australian mateship, of boys who become men in a climate of fear, who react to the terror around them in the way they know best. They laugh at it... and survive.
Written by John Doyle (one half of Roy & HG) and starring Stephen Curry, Leon Ford, Anthony Hayes, Bill Kerr, Desmond Kelly, Geoff Morrell, Matthew Newton, Mark Priestley, Charles 'Bud' Tingwell, Matthew Whittet and Frank Wilson, this series follows six young Australians who go to war full of confidence and bravado. When Singapore falls in 1942 they are marched off to Changi where they survive three-and-a-half years of life as prisoners of war. Humour is their key to survival. |

TOURISM NEWS
Qantas In Flight Magazine chooses
White Hat
Cemetery Tour as its featured Australian tour for May

There are many fine historical tours
throughout Australia including cemetery tours. From these, the
prestigious Qantas In Flight Magazine has chosen the White Hat Tour
of Melbourne Cemetery as its featured Australian tour for the May
2007 edition. This tour was also featured by ABC radio on 24 May and
will feature in a documentary series on Burke and Wills to be shown
on European television in 2008. The tour has been operating for many years and has won
praise from a wide range of sources. This is not a dry and stuffy
tour but in keeping with all White Hat offerings it is Informed,
Intelligent, Independent (and occasionally) Irreverent. You can find
details of the tour at White
Hat Tour of Melbourne Cemetery and view the article at
Qantas In Flight Magazine. |
