It's a good programme isn't it
 And they don't need to make it look more dangerous than it is (unlike the ice roads  )  An engine to TDi for!

Excellent series so far. Amazing how long these trucks are, I wouldn't fancy trying to reverse one with all the trailers on! 1999 Defender TD5 110

Could you imagine asking a trucker here if they would take their trucks along "roads" like that!!!
I wonder what the reply would be  |

I can't find Outback Tuckers on planner or On Demand. Does it go under another name as I'd like to watch it.

James, it was on the Quest channel if that helps, although I have a suspicion that the series ended, as the series link finished

I'd not heard of it before yesterday, the missus had it on, there was around 4 episodes played back to back on Quest, as Gum said.

Me neither. I'd just come in for a cuppa whilst working outside and had a flick through the channels as you do and came across this little gem. I laughed so much when I saw them trying to tow the FOUR!
trailers out of the mud with that tiny thin chain ! Excellent stuff. |

Gutted I missed this, sounds pretty awesome. I like IRT, but the way they over dramatize everything (seems to be the norm for any kind of American documentary though) does get annoying after a while...
