The Timeless Land. A television series that was produced and broadcast by the Australian Broadcasting Commission, premiering on 4 September 1980. It was written by Peter Yeldham, based on the Eleanor Dark novels, and starred Charles Yunupingu as Bennelong and English actress Nicola Pagett (star of the British series Upstairs, Downstairs) as Mrs. Mannion. Other actors included Ray Barrett and John Frawley. Formed in 1936 when Howard Jacobs was contracted by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation to lead the newly formed band on a tour of Australia. In 1969 the name was changed to The ABC Showband, a reflection of the fact that they were playing less dance music and more light styles of music. Brian May became the band leader when the name changed. It was disbanded in 1981 when the ABC sacked the remaining members due to reallocation of funds.
