Skippy the Bush Kangaroo who used to go "click click click click" to Sonny Hammond to which Sonny replied "What Skippy? There are guys trapped down the old gold mine?" when actually what Skippy was saying "Any chance of some leaves (or whatever kangaroo's eat) as I'm starving Cobber!"
Skippy was inspired by Britain's Lassie the collie dog & the US's Flipper the dolphin. The Australian networks realised they had to come up with something to compete with Lassie & Flipper. They decided on a kangaroo even though kangaroo's are considered vermin in Australia

And Richard mate...sorry to tell you, but there is virtually nothing "Australian" about Fosters.

I did hear it wasn't well regarded in Australia. What about Castlemaine XXXX?
