Rural Legends records some of the vast oral history of country Australia. It features heart-breaking, inspirational and entertaining stories of people who are the essence of regional and remote communities. Using a team of over 70 specialist rural reporters, the ABC has created a fascinating 40 part radio series called ‘Rural Legends’ which sets out to profile some of the ordinary yet remarkable people who live outside our capital cities. It is these people who form the fabric of rural Australia and who have made this country what it is. Rural Legends attempts to give some insight into their character – what makes them tick, the experiences which have shaped their lives, and what impact they have had on their own part of the country. Meet some of the remarkable characters who reflect the challenges of living in our regional areas.
