Sea Urchins - Series Three, Episode Five
Television (Full Length Episode) – 1983
I was terrible. It [teenage modelling] was the worst experience of my life and I hated it and I said, ‘That’s it, I’m never acting again’, but then Television NZ called for auditions for this kids’ show called Sea Urchins.– Rebecca Gibney describes getting her acting break on the show (Mindfood magazine)
I don't know, I've never tried landing a plane before!– Karen (Rebecca Gibney)
I want this ship cleaned of anything that might come home to roost: cages, smells, feathers ... the lot!– The villainous wildlife smuggler Carl (Jeremy Stephens)
