Clip description

Yuma (Cassandra Glenn) and Kyanna (Christine Glenn) are desperate to return to their own lives. Kyanna cooks for the family – father Henry (Myles Pollard), stepmother Roz (Jen Apostolou) and brother Heath (James Fraser) – in an attempt to get a return trip to Alice Springs. Meanwhile in Alice Springs, Aaron (Tyrone Wallace) and Iona (Letitia Bartlett) want to go bush with Yuma to film a documentary.

Curator’s notes

Double Trouble has a great humorous thread running through the series, with likeable characters and good performances. Here we see a contrast between living in the city and the skills necessary to survive in the desert.
