What happens

Seven Little Australians is a ten-part Australian television series that aired on ABC Television in 1973. The mini-series was based on Ethel Turner's best-selling novel, Seven Little Australians. The series was largely faithful to the book; differences include the fact that Judy was thin and waiflike in the book, she is more solidly built in the series. Meg's hair was long and dark, but in the book her hair is long and blonde. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
