Wednesday, cup of coffee, another Bush Tucker Man - beautiful middle of the week. Love that series. Cheers from Poland.

[@ryanpedersen5722]

Great to see you watching an Australian classic :) all the way from Poland Gday from Australia

[@RandellMonaghan]

Les is my hero, i love the Australian outback because of this man, his heart for the original in habitants and there lessons and culture has educated a generation of Australians and affected them is such a positive way. He's so humble, too humble, he basically pioneered the documentation and identification of Australian bush tucker not that he will outwardly say it was all him. Think it's about time he was renamed Sir Les Hiddins.

[@deanriley5690]

Never watched Malcolm Douglas???

[@secretstreamsandfeverdreams]

Re watching these as an adult and I am more and more impressed with Lez, what a true ledgend

[@Rosshenderson]

Hmmmm didn't know that les spelled his name with a z

[@Ty-dz9ed]

@@Rosshenderson get over it mate...

[@ColinVanderheide]

Bush Tucker Man ... Maj Les Higgins A bloody Aussie legend First thing I noticed .. He does use FRE D👍👍 If you are the Army you know what FRED is

[@jjw2632]

first to comment so heres my take . This bloke and Malcolm Douglas. Best docos on Aussie landscape with a deep respect and acknowledgement of Aboriginal customs and knowledge . Way before their time . Time to heal

[@shanefraser7764]

Malcolm was awesome to watch,

[@shonkytonky]

A fantastic communicator with a great sense of humour. Been watching these shows since before I emigrated to Aus in 2003. The Outback as portrayed by Les is one of the reason I came to Aus. A national treasure. Thankyou.

[@mckseal]

Tell you what, this here's a great example of a place to get a feed. This spot by the edge of the waterhole is close enough to the road that every now and then a wild Les Hiddins will come by and just drop in some delicious steaks! ~A Yabbie

[@theoztreecrasher2647]

Also a place where some dumb city slicker/foreigner will casually drop in for lunch with me. Mick Dundee's Mate.

[@TradieTrev]

"I don't have a beer but book to read" Such a classic!

Thanks so much ABC Australia not only is The BTM (still) superb but it takes me on a massive nostalgia trip every time a fresh episode is posted. Cheers guys!

[@somethingelse4878]

Used to watch this on sky tv uk in 1993 and loved it then and still do

[@jimmyh8090]

Thanks for uploading this , I loved this show back when it was on tv and it's still excellent after all these years . Thanks Les, bush tucker man you are a legend 👍👍

[@Spiderwebsider]

From when the ABC was the still best. A long time ago now.

[@0088tjw]

Currently travelling Australia, because of my idols like Les Higgins, The Legend, cheers for the inspiration 👍

[@sasquatchfoote8235]

Brilliant, required viewing in my house as a kid 👍

[@tubefishing6969]

Bush Tucker Man - Aussie Legend

[@tazsnoop1044]

Love having this show back , love it , thanks Les 👍

[@simonRTJ]

Les was a regular fixture on British TV in the 80's, and I couldn't get enough! my dad and I loved this series, it kindled a fascination with the Antipodes and travel in general, i now live in New Zealand. I do not doubt that the bush tucker man has saved lives in Australia. good on 'im!

[@PAGANONYMOUS]

One day I'll spend £10, buy a ticket and emigrate. ;-) Love watching this again! used to watch this on cable TV back in the 80s In UK

[@kalebarancelovic]

Never seen this episode before. Seen the others dozens of times. Thanks for uploading

[@JuanPablo-kj9dg]

Just finished Malcolm Douglas series and came across Lez, love these adventurers showing the wild heart of Australia.

[@Rosshenderson]

Who's Lez. I know a leS with a actual s instead of the z does this programme

[@eurekaelephant2714]

Love watching these. Trips, as well as trips down memory lane.

[@alisonphilp7497]

A man beyond his years still love this stuff one of the first true adventures in oz love it

[@barryuppman9212]

Magical and bloody good music

[@anthonymichael5078]

There's no-one better! Love Les

[@adventure002006]

Just stumbled upon this series. Great information on one the most amazing Continents in the World. Surprised how old this series is, feels like it was just filmed weeks ago. Look forward to watching the rest of the seasons and episodes.

[@bmrt1000]

Miss this series! Used to watch it as kids...something in our house that wasn't missed!

[@JohnPanto]

As an old matelot to an old pongo.you had a great number here and thank for being so interesting

[@simonhenry3815]

I watched Les as a kid in the 90's and now wonder why it is that I found so much solace when I lived in Weipa, the Boulia Triangle and out to the west chasing shale oil in the Georgina Basin

[@HappySnappyChappy]

He's not just wandering around going "Oh look - figs!", he's obviously got enough understanding of the tree AND roots to be able to say "Now I can identify this plant from underground, like, if I happen to be bimbling about in a lava tunnel and fancy some tucker" THAT's Botany!!!! :o)

[@trueaussieray9093]

Taught me a lot as a youngster old Les

[@williamfenton8733]

Brilliant stuff. Pity that we don't seem to listen to what the trees are telling as Les suggested.

[@Womble1252]

I forgot how great the score musc was 😊

[@brentmcd12]

absolutely fascinating! 🏞️🌄📹🛻😎🤙 Thanks ABC 🎬

[@chuckokelley2448]

I love the opening little picture squares reminds me of Harry Butler

[@joeadams1225]

Great series, Vale Rory, another " One-Off".

Remember watching as a kid

[@kwacker45]

Loved this show

[@shanefraser7764]

In true Spirit of Malcolm Douglas mate, watching from kiwi land,

[@matthewharris-davies8368]

Mate this is my country, I grew up in the tablelands and worked in the golf. No better country. Not quite the same now but still unbelievable.

[@theoztreecrasher2647]

You "worked in the golf"?? Well we can see what your handicap is. 🙄😊

[@alaskajdw]

Glad I found this show. Very interesting

[@WestOzCards]

YAY another Ep. haha Seriously awesome.

[@alistairmills7608]

Gosh I love this.

[@janebrilly4386]

This guy is a Awesome could watch him for hours more please

[@twodogswalking840]

Les is one of the best. Malcolm Douglas was a legend too. Been watching these shows since they began but one thing I'm wondering to this day. What's with the unusual hat? I've never seen anyone else wear one ever and I'm Australian. What style is it? Is it Les Hiddins own bash?

[@sarcasmo57]

Makes me want to go for an explore.

[@trevorhancock2740]

Best thing on KZbin

“Along the track you find these government bores” even in the Bush you can’t get away from bloody politicians! 😁

I lived and roamed in the bush with Gudjil Gudjil and Jimmy Goona Goona.

[@raypestrapur2897]

How astounding and wonderful, good for you.

@@raypestrapur2897 My old mate reckons he's related to the boxers Cassius Clay and Rocky Gattellari. His name is Johnny Mudd.😉

[@Insideoutie]

Where was that music coming from during the drone footage at the lost city? I can't make up if it is coming from the drone or from one of the buildings.

[@sami6393]

Brilliant

[@algrover5746]

Classic! That fruit is young guava. Better to eat it if its ripe, it will be soft and sweet. :) less you hungry and needs to it for survival.

King Les

[@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen]

With all the developments in technology, digital cameras, drones etc. Why it is that content as good as this isn't being made these days? We are presented with ever increasing numbers of junk programs and nobody seems to be interested in making really great TV???

[@bazza2540]

Nah mate gotta walk out a Toyota dealership then straight to ARB fro $30,000 of shityoudontneed and bounce those 33's over a rock that's not even on the track until you bust a diff

[@Womble1252]

Scottys gone walkabout is a great self made Oz channel

[@JJ-ef7lb]

Very similar to how Native American tribes got eagle feathers. Amazing

[@dancingrook8553]

man there's something about the word saturated that tickles my pickle. The way it sounds on the ear and rolls off the tongue

[@timothymcdonald6913]

This show is scripted and shot, but it is still a really nice bit of the real thing as to the real bit of what one should expect and look for in the areas covered in the shows, Kudos to Leslie Higgins, Sir I think you are one of a few with a true spirit of adventure. Thank you!

Sir Les Hiddins

[@HoodaThunkit-sj3lk]

A 500 year old tree would only be born during Columbus if the Americas were discovered in the 1700's. Perhaps America never would have been created! Good on ya Les.

[@bluntox]

I reckon they were after what we call black kites or square tailed Kites

[@keithknight5973]

what's amazing is native American tribes would do the same thing to catch eagles for the feathers for ther headress

[@stewartlowe4597]

(I'll do this again) Seriously: what happened to Les Hiddin's hat? It should have ended up on display in the Bushman's Hall of Fame as cultural memorabilia the way Gene Krantz's vest and Indiana Jones leather jacket do in the Smithsonian in Washington.

[@WatchTheMoss]

Does Les ever make comments on here?

[@coldpotatoes2556]

Quintessential Australia, the colours the landscapes, the experience…..this is an average day in out-back Australia…rustic unforgiving and beautifully unique to any where else on this planet….and always home no matter how harsh or inhospitable. I grew up in the country with things constantly spiking, biting and tripping me out, now I miss the environmental abuse.✌🦘
