Living with Waltzing Matilda Alan Whicker introduces the fourth of ten films in Australia's bicentennial year. Northern Queensland seems an abode of the blessed. And yet each year the crocodile notches up its terrible toll, despite the signs that warn of the presence of this unlovely amphibian ... unloved by all, except Mike Pople , who left Bristol to become a ranger for the Queensland Wildlife Service.
Among other examples of Pommie exotica who flourish in this balmy backwater are Bill Moull from Dagenham who sells prawns to the Japanese, Pat Robertson from London who sells koalas to the Japanese,
Geoff and Edie Taylor from Coalville in Leicestershire, who are making a brave attempt to convert
Australians to the garden gnome, and Eddie Farrell from Manchester, who lives in hope of finding gold - but who, to date, has not found enought to fill a gold tooth. Assistant producer MO BOWYER Film cameraman RAY HENMAN

Let There Be Light
In the Middle Ages, people believed that light was the very embodiment of God, and they celebrated his presence with the breathtaking splendour of their stained-glass windows. Very little is known about the men who made them. Yet they are still a source of inspiration to modern craftsmen, like those working on the huge unfinished cathedral of St John the Divine in New York. For the first time, a film camera has recorded for Everyman the magical beauty of the great rose windows at Chartres
Cathedral from close at hand. And the great composer, Olivier Messiaen , at the organ of the Trinite church in Paris, talks of the special place light and stained glass have in his faith and his music.
