A romp of a trip from Buckingham Palace to the Sydney Opera House in Betsy the London Cab. Waved off by the Queens closest confidante Dame Edna Everage, it headed to Australia via Ireland as the Irish Passenger, Ned Kelly by name, wanted the taxi blessed by a priest.
A blessing was timely as lots could go wrong. The European Alps, the Baluchistan Desert in Pakistan and several deserts ins Australia had to be crossed. The Taliban had to be avoided in Afghanistan and the Ayatollah avoided in Iran. And a million holy cows had to be avoided in India. And being a taxi it was obliged to pick up a few unruly passengers along the way including a monkey and an elephant. And all the while the meter was ticking.
It's a crazy but true adventure, set to wonderful music. Woodend local, Michael Dillon, who filmed it all will be there to tell you more and our special guest will be Betsy, the London Taxi itself.
