The series was filmed in 1973, but the new DVD release has been remastered by the National Archives of Australia. I got my copy from the library. There are 10 episodes in all.
The Woolcot Family
I remember reading the novel, by Ethel Turner, as a young child. How I cried when Judy dies saving the General! It is one of those novel moments I will never forget. Seven Little Australians obviously dates from the era when children's stories didn't have to have a happy ending. It was written in 1894.
Please don't send Judy away!
I post-date the original release of the series but I don't think it has dated at all. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
And, yes, I cried in the final episode!
You can see some snippets from the series here.
