This series is timeless. It will be watched in 100 years time.
You cannot get back to the innocent 50's 60's of Australian National Park life because there are so many people these days and so few animals.
This was made in the early years of TV when TV's were just becoming accessible to all in Australia. It no doubt helped popularise Australia.
Unfortunately Australia is no longer a quirky low populated part of world-it is modern country with large and complex cities with almost non-stop 24 hour activity.
Give me back my simple childhood days of coming home from school and watching Skippy or re-runs of Skippy.
I was even too young to appreciate Lisa Goddard as the 16-17 yo Englsih girl.
God bless all creatures great and small like Skippy the Bush Kangaroo.
