Skippy rocks! 19 December 2004 ~ 23:32 No, not the peanut butter (which we don't have in the UK anyway). I'm talking about the Australian kids TV show about a kangaroo�which hubby had never heard of until a couple of weeks ago.We used to watch it avidly here when I was a child but I don't think it was ever syndicated in the US. Well, when I recently bought us our first DVD player and saw some Skippy DVDs I couldn't resist purchasing them. We have been having great fun watching them. Hubby is quite captivated. The series is from the late 1960s and is about a national park ranger and his two sons in New South Wales, and their heroine 'pet' kangaroo Skippy, who always manages to save the day�in much the same vein as Lassie and Flipper did in the late 60s USA. Skippy is absolutely adorably cute and I highly recommend these DVDs. Children will love her!
