NFSA ID

At the height of its popularity Skippy was broadcast in 128 countries with a weekly audience of over 300 million viewers. The voices of the cast were dubbed into local languages and the NFSA collection includes several foreign-language Skippy scripts.
This is the title page of a script for Series 2, Episode 2 – 'The Perfect Hosts' from Thailand. Its translation into the Thai alphabet is a visual reminder of the global reach of Skippy.
The scribbled notes and underscores also emphasise that this is a working manuscript that has likely been marked up by directors, actors or production staff for the purposes of production.
