Lost songs of Australian rock legend found buried in a garage (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Chrissy Amphlett is Australia's most iconic female rock star — a prowling, pouty lead singer in a school pinny and suspenders with a fierce on-stage presence and a voice both husky and strong. But since her death in 2013, Chrissy's story has not been told on screen. In a two-part series, Australian Story discovers the private woman behind the rock star, interviewing original Divinyls members and unearthing behind-the-scenes footage and photos of Chrissy and the band that brought us hits such as
Three years in a Chinese jail changed Cheng Lei. So has freedom (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Cheng Lei no longer needs to make roses out of toilet paper to add a hint of beauty to the repressive darkness of the Chinese prison system. She's free and finding beauty everywhere: dangling from a parachute above Victoria's Yarra Valley, playing soccer or starring in her own play about the 1,154 days she was wrongfully imprisoned for supplying state secrets overseas.

'King rat': Inside Barnaby Joyce's defection to One Nation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The one thing to know about me, says Barnaby Joyce, "I won't be pushed around". "And if you're gonna push me around," he tells Australian Story, "I'll fight back." The former leader of the federal Nationals is talking about his final stages with the party, a rancorous period during which his one-time media adviser, now wife, Vikki Campion, says he was "treated so badly". That's true, Joyce says, but admits, "I rose to the challenge, too". "I responded likewise," he says, of the febrile months af
