- The scorching interior of the oldest continent is home to one of Australia's toughest inhabitants- the mighty Red Kangaroo. In this inhospitable yet magnificent land "Rusty" takes on everything the sunburnt country can throw at him. From the moment he is born Rusty's quest for life begins, as he hauls his tiny body to his mothers pouch. Establishing Australia's dramatic arid interior using image stabilised aerial cinematography, we are drawn into Rusty's world. Extremely rare footage of a Red Kangaroo birth and specialised in-pouch cameras capture an intimate portrait of Rusty's development from within the pouch. We are introduced to Rusty's formidable neighbours through close encounters with wedge-tailed eagles, dingoes, venomous snakes and giant monitor lizards. And also some entertaining and gentle neighbours such as a troupe of emus and the bizarre shingleback lizard. While Rusty must prove himself among his own kind he must also survive attacks from predators. Above all, this is a story of survival against the odds and what it takes to endure drought, heatwave, and bushfire. Rusty struggles to prove his strength, not only in the conquest for dominance, but against the very land itself. The land upon which his species has evolved over tens of thousands of years, and that still manages to challenge his very existence.

- From newsprint to radio, from newsreels to television sets in our homes, the 24-hour cable news cycle, the digital information revolution... we find ourselves in a world where news is instantly available through a device in the palm of our hands. How we access news has rapidly and irrevocably evolved over the past century. We now consume news at a rate unprecedented at any time in history. And through all these changes, there has remained one constant: our fascination and hunger for information. "As It Happened" pulls back the curtain on some of the most shocking, notorious and captivating news stories of the past century. Stories that broke around the world, with new details unfolding day after day. Details consumed by an eager public, delivered through the collective experience of news media. From the media frenzy of the Lindbergh baby kidnapping or the televised capture and trial of OJ Simpson. We were on the ground in Iraq as we went to war, in the streets of Paris the night Princess Diana died, and in the Oval Office dissecting the Clinton/Lewinsky affair. These are the stories that started as global news and became media spectacles.
