It's mustering season at Olga Downs cattle station in Northern Queensland. Twice a year, 2,000 head of cattle need to be rounded up across 44,000 acres in the Australian outback. It takes helicopters, light aircraft, quad bikes, motorcycles and as many jackaroos and jillaroos you can get your hands on to muster the cattle back to the yards for sorting, drafting and branding.

In the first of two programmes from Australia, Anna Jones makes the long journey to Olga Downs to live and work with the Harrington family, and witness her first ever muster. Dad, Peter, flies the plane while Mum, Carmel, and their grown-up children Emily, Grace and William cover the ground on quad bikes and motorcycles.

After the dust, heat and noise of the muster and cattle yards, Anna discovers another surprising side of Olga Downs. A pioneering electronics business - developed by William Harrington - which is bringing the internet to the outback.
