First, ep 3 is on ABC 1 right now.
Try ABC 1 catch up - http://www.abc.net.au/iview/#/abc1
And thank you for your kind words.
Still no news of a portrait from Australia to mark the Diamond Jubillee.
Let you get to the TV now....

: Romanticised, but of course. Thank you RE
: for the exchanges. I have enjoyed them.
:
: I have also enjoyed celebrating the Diamond
: Jubilee of the Queen of Australia.
:
: All great fun. And I had the concert
: playing in the background.
: Shortly we will have another episode of The
: Diamond Queen.
: Australian TV seemed slow to catch on.

:
: Likewise, Nellie. You bring a lot of thought
: and knowledge to this forum. You have a
: greater knowledge, in particular, regarding
: the British Royal Family's jewellery
: collection than I so it's a pleasure to read
: your posts.
:
: I definitly took interest in the Jubilee
: celebrations in recognition of the Queen's
: role as Queen of Australia, first and
: foremost.
:
: I was also discussing with a relation over
: the weekend that one downfall of being an
: antipodean Monarchy is that we are unable to
: celebrate alongside our head of state in
: person, which would have been just
: wonderful. I enjoyed watching all the events
: live on Sky24 and found the coverage
: plentiful though the commentary was not to
: my liking.
:
: Can I ask Nellie, what are these episodes
: you speak of re The Diamond Queen?
:
: I have not seem nor heard of them but would
: very much like to watch them.
:
: I'm not surprised that Australian TV is slow
: on the uptake. ABC was itself pressured into
: televising the Jubilee after a backlash.
