Lockie Leonard - Series 1

DESCRIPTION

Lockie Leonard is based on the award-winning novels by author Tim Winton. Set against a backdrop of great surf on the spectacular coast of Western Australia, its quick wit, physical humour, emotional depth and acute observation guarantees fresh new entertainment for children and their parents. What chance have you got when your dad's a cop, your mum's a frighteningly understanding parent, your brother wets the bed, your best friend's a heavy metal devotee and then you fall in love at twelve-and-three-quarters years old? It can only mean trouble, worry, mega-embarrassment and some wild, wild times. Lockie Leonard – hot surf-rat – and his family have just moved to the most remote town on earth: Angelus. For Lockie this is a TOTAL LIFE DISASTER – no friends, new school and a house that is truly in danger of disappearing into a swamp ... but then Lockie spots the one thing that makes it all okay: this weird little town has the best surf he has ever seen. Through the eyes of Lockie Leonard, we view the truly mixed-up yet very normal life of Lockie, his family and friends.
