life in the curiosity show

Edición de la obra Curious Recollections

Every child who grew up in Australia in the 70s and 80s remembers "Curiosity Show", the science show that encouraged kids to build their own experiments at home. Running for 18 years, it was a groundbreaking television production, winning awards and screening into homes around the world. As the show experiences a renaissance online, co-host Rob Morrison delves into its weird and wonderful past. From a flight to Antarctica, to being an expert witness on dingos in the Lindy Chamberlain case, to using a sex doll to win a scientific debate, Rob's recollections from this era - and of his long partnership with Deane Hutton - are imbued with his famous sense of fun. He also takes us behind the cameras, sharing how he got into the television business and small tips and tricks to engage with viewers all around the world. For fans new and old alike, this is a wonderful peek into one of Australia's most beloved televisions shows. You'll never look at Humphrey B. Bear the same way again ...
