    463 - Australian Bushranger Moondyne Joe

    Moondyne Joe is Western Australia's most famous Bushranger, but as first time guest Angus Gordon tells us, he is more famous for his jail escapes than his bush ranging! Note: Angus was raw dogging this report and let us know he got a couple of names wrong: the convict he called Simon Levey was actually named Solomon and the Governor of Swan River was Hampton not Hudson.
