Real Outlaws

Ned Kelly Part 2: Outbreak

Ned Kelly, along with his brother Dan and two friends Steve and Joe are forced into hiding deep in the Victorian bush. Left to their own devices, perhaps things might cool off and settle down. I guess we’ll never know. When the police come knocking, all they’ll find is trouble. Deadly trouble. An incident will spark a crimewave that will split loyalties and pit the public against the authorities - it’ll go down in history as the Kelly Outbreak.
A Noiser production, written by Danny Marshall. With thanks to Graham Seal, professor of folklore at Curtin University in Perth, and author of Tell ‘em I died game: The legend of Ned Kelly.
This is Part 2 of 3.
