The great granddaughter of Biddy O’Shea has flown to the Northern Territory station run by Frank Morrison, great grandson of James, to talk about their future together, but they disagree about his ‘prehistoric’ views of a woman’s role. Frank (Franklyn Bennett) is a federal MP, who sees his future on the land in the harshest part of the country. His speech to Parliament helps Biddy Parry (Peggy Maguire) make up her mind to share that life.
