Miriam Margolyes is on a mission to explore the unique Australian ethos of the 'fair go' 鈥� something she swore to uphold when she became a citizen nearly ten years ago. Embraced as a defining feature of Australian life, this core value promotes equal opportunity for all - no matter your background, class, race or creed.

Miriam Margolyes begins her Australian adventure in the former penal settlement of Lutruwita, Tasmania, questioning how a 'fair go' could have begun in a place like this. As she bumbles her way from north to south, Miriam is confronted with the complexities of Tasmania鈥檚 rich history.

From the dichotomy between colonial Australia and indigenous peoples to the state鈥檚 conservative past with LGBTQIA+ rights, Miriam navigates truths while meeting those still fighting for a fair go. Along the way, she encounters indigenous activist Michael Mansell, tucks into some road kill with independent politician Jacqui Lambie, and comes face to face with the state鈥檚 shocking illiteracy issues.

As she begins to reveal her own personal battles along this journey, Miriam discovers that the fair go is an ideal worth fighting for.
