Two friends, Melanie Tait and Kim Lester, talk nostalgia, social history, and TV trivia as they rewatch random episodes of the legendary A Country Practice. Includes interviews actors and creatives from the show, discussions of the big social issues of the 1980s and 90s, and a look at how ACP shaped Australia’s film and TV industry? Kicks and giggles also had.
A Country Pals,
We've loved making this podcast for you over the last two years, but this is our last episode for the foreseeable future. We hope you've loved it as much as we have.
Joining Mel & Kim this week is our formidable Social Media Manager Chez Robbie, who is pretty much the world's foremost ACP expert. And, Great Podcast Talent, as you'll discover.
Thank you for listening, we hope you love our chat about the series finale of ACP.

Lots Of Kisses Before Lots Of Dying (With Special Guest Chez Robbie!)
It's here: the episodes we lose Shirley Gilroy in a plane crash.
This is a brilliant episode from Season 12 - it shows the beginning of Tom and Anna's romance, Esme falls a little in love with Percy... and young journalist Max Blair comes to town, dying of HIV AIDS.
The thing is - Mel and Kim aren't great on the later series and this ep is going to hurt for the purists. So, we've got Chez Robbie in as our fact checker, thank goodness.
