YET ANOTHER BLOODY outback drama. JAMES LAURENTSEN dons light coating of shoe polish to fight race prejudice as a half-Aboriginal detective. Not much remembered. By anyone, thankfully.

    Well, not remembered except for Frank Farian, who named his musical project after watching the show.

    I call it project because only 2 people in the videos, Liz Mitchell and Marcia Barrett actually sang on the records, and Farian did the male vocals which Bobby Farrell mimed to.

    Farian later took the appearing on stage & miming to someone else’s singing a step further with Milli Vanilli.

    The real performers were all seasoned session performers & lacking a bit in teeny bopper appeal, so getting a couple of night club dancers to act as front men seemed a good idea at the time.
