Crafty Carson and his nasty friends started a grass fire which started to spread. The flames were raging and the bush children watched in horror. Granny Goanna was unwell and in the homestead. The bush children tried to call the Dogtor but flames had damaged the radio. The fire then reached their store of fireworks and 'Boom!'.The Flying Dogtor" series was broadcast on Australian Television Network (later becoming the Seven Network) between February and April 1964 (see item D254 for schedule).Typewritten, carbon copy, foolscap, 4 pages.Page 2, 'Man' handwritten in between 'Old' and 'Redback'.the flying dogtor, robin boyd, crawford productions

The flames closed in on the house and Granny and the children were terrified. But meanwhile, high in the sky above them, exercising his powers in scientific rainmaking, was The Flying Dogtor. The sky was filled with rain and it put out the fire. Crafty Carson Carpetbag and Old Man Redback, with the help of Elvis Evil Eagle, got a hold of the rainmaking powder and schemed to start a flood.The Flying Dogtor" series was broadcast on Australian Television Network (later becoming the Seven Network) between February and April 1964 (see item D254 for schedule).Typewritten, carbon copy, foolscap, 5 pagesthe flying dogtor, robin boyd, crawford productions, manuscript

Crafty Carson Carpetbag, Old Man Redback and Elvis Evil Eagle stole the rainmaking kit from The Flying Dogtor's plane. Elvis Evil Eagle (aka The Bodgie Bird) flew up again and sprinkled the powder into the clouds. The rain started filling the gully and the creek flooded into the homestead.

The Flying Dogtor and Elvis Evil Eagle crashed mid air and the Dogtor helped Elvis gain control and rescued him. Thee Dogtor then tried to loosen a pile of logs that were blocking the creek and making the flood worse, but the effort sent his plane into a spin.The Flying Dogtor" series was broadcast on Australian Television Network (later becoming the Seven Network) between February and April 1964 (see item D254 for schedule).Typewritten, carbon copy, foolscap, 3 pagesPage 1: spelling correction, hand writtenthe flying dogtor, robin boyd, crawford productions, manuscript

Elvis resumed pouring the rainmaking powder onto the clouds and the Dogtor could not loosen the logs that were blocking the creek bed. Because the Dogtor had been so nice to Elvis, in the end, Elvis helped the Dogtor dislodge the logs and the flood subsided. But Crafty Carson Carpetbag and Old Man Redback lay waiting, scheming, planning their next nasty surprise.The Flying Dogtor" series was broadcast on Australian Television Network (later becoming the Seven Network) between February and April 1964 (see item D254 for schedule).Typewritten, carbon copy, foolscap, 2 pagesthe flying dogtor, robin boyd, crawford productions, manuscript

After the fire was distinguished and the flood subsided, on his way flying home, the Dogtor heard voices repeatedly on his radio "Calling Flying Dogtor". A sick voice asked for the Dogtor's help in the main street of Ghostville, the old mining town across Dry Gulch Gully, now a ghost town. He got to the abandoned address, 13 ("unlucky number") Spook Street.

The Dogtor knocked at 13 Spook Street and a faint voice said "Come in". Behind another door inside, came a faint child's voice "Help me" which led the Dogtor down a passageway. It was of course, Crafty Carson Carpetbag setting a booby trap to kill him by using a trick string and a huge stone.

There was an enormous crash and Crafty thought he had finally squashed the Dogtor but he was not harmed when the great stone fell, using his stethoscope to open the door. Crafty was hiding behind a shed in the yard waiting for the dust to settle. The Dogtor used his teeth to catch Crafty by the end of his tail but Crafty twisted and escaped through an opening in the back fence. He slipped into an old mine shaft and planned his next trap for the Dogtor.The Flying Dogtor" series was broadcast on Australian Television Network (later becoming the Seven Network) between February and April 1964 (see item D254 for schedule).Typewritten, carbon copy, foolscap, 3 pagesthe flying dogtor, robin boyd, crawford productions, manuscript

Crafty Carson Carpetbag tricked The Flying Dogtor into stepping into the mouth of an old and deep gold mineshaft. The Dogtor fell down the mineshaft, and Crafty thought that he had succeeded at last in getting rid of his enemy. He even climbed into the Dogtor's plane and tried the controls, planning to fly it away and keep it for himself. Meanwhile, The Flying Dogtor fell deep down the mineshaft, like a stone.
