Australian Unlimited

Australia Unlimited was an Australian television program, which aired from 1956 to circa 1961 on Sydney station ABN-2, with part of the run also being shown on Melbourne station ABV-2. The first episode of the series aired 7 November 1956. The series moved time-slot and day of broadcast several times. Ron Powell hosted the series for part of the run. Originally 30 minutes, it later became a 15-minute show. It was one of the first series produced by the ABC.

Topics in early episodes of the non-fiction series (which largely focused on rural subjects) varied from snakes^[1] to bonsai trees,^[2] the latter considered an odd choice of subject matter by The Australian Women's Weekly.
