Children's live action puppet show airing between 1984-1987 on ABC Australia following the adventures of Blinky Bill from the Dorothy Wall books. Characters include Blinky Bill, Mrs Magpie, Angelina Wallaby and Walter Wombat from the books, and new characters such as Charlie Goanna, Eric Echidna, Sybilla Snake and Kerry Koala from the neighbouring fictional Acadia Ridge park.
The local woodlanders are carrying with their everyday life as normal until the next morning, when two men Harry and Joe start to take down the entire forest with their tractor. The animals evacuate as many trees fall down, and more trees are cut down including Mrs Koala's home, and a tree knocks Blinky Bill unconscious.
Life is never peaceful when Blinky Bill, the mischievous koala, is around. Sporting a hobo knapsack, a pair of red overalls and a wandering soul, Blinky is always on the search for adventure.
In the town of Greenpatch, Australia, a courageous young koala named Blinky Bill (Ryan Kwanten) tells a story about his father, Bill Koala (Richard Roxburgh) while embarking on a journey across the wild, and dangerous Australian outback in the hope of finding him.
The Wild Adventures of Blinky Bill is an Australian animated television series based on Dorothy Wall's books about Blinky Bill
