Fred,
The term is also used stateside and simply means one of a kind.

  David, 

      A one off is an Aussie term I haven't heard.  Enlighten me.  ;-)

      Is the series still running?  I'd like to know.  

      Stay in touch.  
      
      Regards, 



                                                                  Fred

    Well Fred, it was a Crawford production.  This is what  I found:   

     

    http://www.crawfords.com.au/libary/drama/flyingdocs.shtml

     

    6 hour mini-series produced in 1984 (2 hours x 3)

    Executive Producers: Hector Crawford, Ian Crawford & Terry Stapleton

    Producers: Charles Tingwell & Graham Moore

    Associate Producer: Mike Lake

    Director: Pino Amenta

    Writers: Terry Stapleton & Vince Moran

     

    Filmed on location at Nulla Station in the far west of New South Wales, Minyip in the wheatlands of north-west Victoria & Mundi Mundi Plains on the South Australian border beyond Broken Hill

     

     

    That suggests it was a one off.

     

    Cheers

     

    David

    David, 

     

        I was told it went into a new season.  Are you sure about that?  

     

        I got a copy of the original Flying Doctors movie on Ebay some years back.  Later, I got six of the television episodes.  It's never been shown in The States.  But it has been shown in Europe and other parts of the world, I'm told.  

     

        I think it's fantastic.  With all of the junk we have on our cable channels here, I don't understand why they don't put The Flying Doctors on one of them.  

     

        Regards, 

     

     

     

                                                                        Fred
