Robin Boyd Foundation
Document - Script, Robin Boyd, The Flying Dogtor. Episode 41 Golden Trail, 1963
The Flying Dogtor and the bush children found out where a bushranger had hidden treasure 100 years ago. Unfortunately, Crafty Carson Carpetbag and Old Man Redback found out just a little sooner, dug up the treasure first, and disappeared with it. But there must have been a hole in the chest, for the children found a gold coin on the ground, and then another and another. They set out to follow the trail with their faithful friend, The Flying 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, 2 pagesthe flying dogtor, robin boyd, crawford productions, manuscript
