S01E01 Credits and Roll 00:00-
<menacing synthesiser music>
<a cube of fours made up of fours rotates supplanted by historic video, film and even black and white film footage vaguely referencing the voice over>
The Amphetamine and Heroin epidemics
The problems in the Towers
Biker and Yugoslav bombings
Burning children on a carnival ride
The Builders and Labourers standing commission into corruption
The Royal Commissions into Policing, including the in camera Commissions
The falsification of coronial inquests
“The Incident”
The lack of freeways in Sydney
And the trams
Tonight thanks to a court ruling*1 Four Corners can reveal to you for the first time in New South Wales how each of these relate to the Sydney Goodhouse apartment, or the one very much like it, which you almost certainly live in.
Tonight on four corners we expose the long reach of Georgios Dikepolis—more often known as George Goodhouse—into our lives; and it all starts with a legal innovation in South Australia: the strata title.
yours,
Sam R.
Many a time youse and others have tried to save Sydney’s trams. I’ll save them alrighty. I’ll save them even after “the incident.” I’ll even give you more railways and fewer freeways in laid out medium/high density public transport centred garden suburbs.
Think Soviet Linear City with more London plane trees. And more dead dodgy solicitors.
1) Australia’s libel laws are notorious. Please consider this when I talk about wiring someone to a pot belly stove ripped out of a slum weatherboard cottage using a wire coat hanger on a fishing trip. Much of the content here will be historical elements turned up just a little bit louder and more distorted. I am interested in the systems aspect of how NSW may be reasonably construed to have worked without reference to any persons currently living.
