Tim Ross provides more than an architectural history - as well informed and compleate as that is - of Australia, he delivers a finely nuanced, gentle, compassionate and respectfully humorous social commentary on the development of all forms of housing. Often tongue-in-cheek, always entertaining, Ross effortlessly walks us through the growth of housing, social and private, and showcases the effects these paradigms have on the human soul. From one architectural tragic to another, I applaud this series and look forward to more episodes. The ABC seems to screen a lot of home-made content these days (a result of repetitive funding cuts?) and the quality has suffered considerably; Tim Ross's show exceeds all expectations and I for one am eternally grateful.
