What the heck was that TV show they made us watch in primary school in the seventies, where the kids go into the bush with their teacher, who falls off a cliff and perishes, and then it's so cold they have to burn their map to light a fire? I assume it was an Australian show - there was a lot of British telly around, but it must be tougher to get lost in the wilderness in the UK than it is Down Under. I vaguely recall something about their following a river and finding a hermit living in a shack, possibly on the beach.

that weird half-hour thing starring a very young Mel Gibson as a spaceman though

THE HELL

It was about how they make TV. The first half was a "making of" for a Wales Bank commercial, and the second half was a fake "making of" for a non-existent sort of sci-fi show with Mel Gibson playing an inept actor.
