- A dark-sheep type of man returns to his hometown after a prolonged absence. While he's been gone ludicrous rumours have spread about his whereabouts. Is he a big footy player or is he a film star. Turns out he's still the same lovable but not likable sort of fellow he was when he left. He wants his old girlfriend back even though she is married to his brother now and is pregnant.

An exhibition that has just opened at the National Wool Museum in Geelong pays homage to the artistic side of the sheep.
- The growing divide between city and country has seen another push to teach children from metropolitan areas about life and work on the land. The Kondinin group has just released another book in its children's educational series, this time it looks at beef.

- Saffron is the most expensive spice in the world. By weight it's worth more than gold. Prized for its intense colour, aroma and flavour, the dried stigmas from the crocus flower are used in Middle Eastern and European cooking. Twelve years ago a Tasmanian couple decided to try growing saffron, even though no-one had ever managed to grow it south of the equator. After a devastating false start they've established themselves as Australia's only saffron suppliers.
- Organisers have always hoped the Year of the Outback would be more than the sum of its parts. At last count there's been some 700 community events and festivals organised across the country.
