Ginette McDonald's salt of the earth creation Lynn of Tawa tours New Zealand and Australia in this series. In this episode Lynn explores Otago culture — Scottish heritage, bad student art and niche sports — while offering the naughty innuendo and blunt comments people love her for. She meets many quirky locals: curlers, playwright Roger Hall, nature expert Peter Hayden, plus visiting American Leeza Gibbons. She even turns down Sam Neill. Lynn still reigns as McDonald's most famous role, and it's easy to see why — this warped travel show provides a fine showcase for her effortless improvisation and charm.
