New Idea — 14 August 2017

Popular political commentator

Annabel Crabb pays an

intriguing access-all-areas

visit to Australia’s Parliament

House in Canberra.

This ground-breaking new

documentary was shot over

a 10-month period, with the

production crew granted

unprecedented access by the

authorities at Parliament

House, opening up parts

of the building where

cameras – and members

of the public – have never

been allowed before.

In the first instalment,

Annabel meets the woman

who could throw Australian

democracy into disarray,

simply by stopping deliveries

of coffee and toilet paper.

Tensions are running high and

it’s only day 12. As the

castaways endure further wind

and rain, they struggle to

maintain morale without fire

and adequate shelter.

Blatant lies and a blindside

at tribal council puts everyone

on edge. Then, on Sunday

night, with distrust among

the remaining tribe members

and supposed tight alliances,

emotions are at an all-time

high, playing havoc with morale.

It’s the fantastically ridiculous

film franchise that just keeps

on giving.

This time around, with much

of America lying in ruins, the

rest of the world braces for

a global sharknado.

April (Tara Reid) and her

family must travel around the

world to stop the sharks.

One of the most surprisingly

popular series on our screens

returns for more incredible

insights into the railroad

network of the US.

British former

politician Michael Portillo

crosses the Atlantic

to ride the railroads of North

America. He’s armed with his

faithful Appleton’s General

Guide to the United States

and Canada, which was

published in 1879.
