The Screen Guide

In the South Pacific Ocean, one extraordinary pinnacle of volcanic rock stands alone - Ball's Pyramid, near Lord Howe Island, soaring 600 metres straight up from the wild waters of the Tasman Sea. Despite efforts to uncover its secrets, it remained a mystery - until adventurer Dick Smith led a team of climbers and scientists on the first serious attempt to record life on Ball's Pyramid, and to claim it officially for the people of New South Wales. Their climb, and their discoveries, make an absorbing program.
