It held the gun and did the crimes. Very few people know this very true fact!

2017-04-13 18:46:28 +0000 UTCWell then. See who this final cop might actually be then!

2017-04-11 21:03:18 +0000 UTCI feel like stories like this are circulated, but the hard part is finding a solution - and then actually making it happen.
Extra History
2017-04-11 20:45:54 +0000 UTCThere certainly were, in many areas. One of the cops Ned shot (Sgt Kennedy) was a good cop even in Ned's estimation; he said he felt sorry for shooting him, though he still felt like he needed to do so to save his own life. There were also cops involved in the searches who wanted to take a different approach and were disgusted by the cowardice or incompetence of their superiors, but they were still bound by the chain of command and could only do so much. At the end of this episode, Ned disappears for over a year because leadership of the Victoria police is briefly taken over by someone who has the idea to actually work with informants rather than persecute them, but he winds up getting displaced before his program can really get any results. And in the final episode, we will see an example of one very good cop without whom things would have played out very differently...

2017-04-11 20:43:03 +0000 UTCShe was a really incredible woman! I wish I could have spent more time on her. At one point, if I recall correctly, some of her neighbors started gossiping and complaining about her being this rowdy single mother and how undecorous that was. She replied by organizing an even rowdier makeshift event where she basically jumped on a horse and galloped up and down the main street doing trick riding demonstrations.

2017-04-11 20:39:13 +0000 UTCThat is such a cool calculator! There may have been some different in what £1 could buy in Australia at the time but I think that gives us a close enough estimation. It was a good lot of money (though Ned had been hoping for more).
Extra History
2017-04-11 20:28:58 +0000 UTCThis is what a corrupt and incompetent police force looks like. Stories like these should be more widely circulated.

2017-04-08 11:33:41 +0000 UTCI'm loving this series so much, even looking forward to showing my parents when they come into town today. The only person besides Ned I would want to know more about is Ellen Kelly. I can't imagine being a single mother at this time and enduring everything she has only to wind up being tossed into prison. She must have been made of something special and incredibly strong.

2017-04-08 00:09:33 +0000 UTCThis series was very Kelly-focused, but I almost wish I had more time to go into the comedy of errors that was the police hunt for him. There was really a lot going on... including this. And the time they shot at each other, which was also referenced in this episode.

2017-04-07 20:35:53 +0000 UTCI am okay with that as long as it's through a private link (meaning, not shared on a Facebook post or anything like that where others could find it). Hope your friend enjoys it!

2017-04-07 20:23:34 +0000 UTCHe had just come in from a days' riding so he was super dusty and I guess super cranky about being interrupted during his bath. I have to admire that gall. ;D
Extra History
2017-04-07 20:22:36 +0000 UTCI've never watched that show, so I looked up the character and went "hey, it's my friend Rob!" I can see the Ned Kelly resemblance, though. :)
Extra History
2017-04-07 20:21:22 +0000 UTCHe's such an interesting, complicated figure. He does some undeniably bad stuff, but he wants to see himself as a good guy, and he tries to live up to that too.

2017-04-07 19:41:05 +0000 UTCI got a couple of good chuckles at the bank manager agreeing to help Ned & Steve - ONCE he was finished with his (weekly or monthly) bath! XD Also, Good on ya for pronouncing Jerilderie correctly! :D

2017-04-07 19:15:05 +0000 UTCIs it strange that Ned Kelly reminds me of Julian from Trailer Park Boys? The often-noble attitude, having to corral the idiots in his gang (i.e. Ricky), and his attempts to get back at "crooked cops" are all traits the two share. They also kind of look like each other, which I find funny.

2017-04-07 17:40:12 +0000 UTCAwesome episode! I can see why so may people liked him.

2017-04-07 17:39:21 +0000 UTCSo how much is it for James to speak at an organization? And does a homeschool group qualify?

2017-04-07 17:39:01 +0000 UTCMaybe. But there could be an episode about how Kelly changed the country.
