Harrow country.
This shot, taken on a bit of a cloudy Tuesday from the City Botanic Gardens is looking across the Brisbane River to Kangaroo Point and the Story Bridge on the far left. For those Aussies and also some overseas countries (UK is one) who have been engrossed in the adventures of our local TV production "Harrow", lead dissector, Daniel Harrow, well known pathologist at the fictional Queensland Institute of Forensic Medicine, knows this reach of the river well as it is his home...not on the range, but on the yacht.
In fact, if you look to the right of the vessel in the middle foreground and then over to the far bank of the river, you can see a number of other yachts tied up at a small mooring. This is his usual maritime home, although I don't think we have ever been shown the boat's name. It is featured, in an unexpected way, in the final scenes of Series 3 which has just finished being shown in Australia. My lips are sealed.
We have grown to love him in Brisbane, not only for the entertaining television but for really showing the city at its best, although, when identifying some of the locations used in the series, he certainly gets himself into some odd places.
The three series so far have been produced by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and Hoodlum Productions. No information yet on a 4th series, we hope so.
In an odd twist, very similar scenes were used in the first episode of the TV series "Mission Impossible"....."Good Morning Mr. Phelps" that was filmed in Australia during the Hollywood writer's strike back in the 1980's. Back then, that episode was supposedly set in London of all places!
