- The conservatory in Adelaide Botanic Garden, South Australia, is one of Australia's most prized buildings. It was constructed for Australia's bicentenary in 1988 to house a tropical rainforest which is now thriving, but Rob was able to get a sneak preview inside before it opened and he explains some of the revolutionary features of this impressive building.

Wow! I can't wait for 1989 to come around so we can see what it looks like!
Have a look now maps.app.goo.gl/vwWEehC4WeXbNRpK9
I was a child of the 1970's and loved the Curiosity Show. Thanks Rob for your book presentation at the Salisbury Library recently.
I'm a regular at the conservatory. Some years ago they stopped using the heating system but it still looks great. As a bonus they made it free to enter.
Thanks very much - yes, I enjoyed the author's talk. The conservatory is a 'must see' for visitors to Adelaide - Rob
I remember when David Attenborough visited the conservatory to promote The Private Life Of Plants TV series. I managed to get his autograph there.
I looked after him for a few days in Adelaide. As nice a man offscreen as he is onscreen. A giant of natural history - Rob
You can see the plants from the road now. I suppose they've had 32 years to grow.
I hope I'm not the only one in their 30's that watch these
Why do I keep reading comments , could be. I‘m in my 40s ;)
@@uncledoc9010 I didn't watch it as a kid (USA) regardless it still gives me a high dose of nostalgia

I vaguely remember my 40's. 😀
I just cracked 40 does that count?
@@Optimus-Prime-Rib I should of said "over 30" lol
0:31 "within cooee" is an australian expression equivalent to "within near"
"Cooee" is also a clue in "The Boscombe Valley Mystery", a Sherlock Holmes story.
"this, a computer" so great
Walked past the place so many times but never have been in . now I have my own little jungle in my backyard in Whyalla under shade cloth even had a native frogs turn up and moved in
I live in Whyalla ,that would be fantastic to see more people doing that .
I think the day it opened 32 years ago was the last time I went there. I imagine all the trees and plants would be full size now.
They grow up so quickly 😢

Is it still open? I remember hearing/reading somewhere that the State Government was considering closing down the Bicentennial Conservatory to save costs.
Pretty
Brutal audio. :-)
That was cool.
You are amazing.
How's the garden doing?

I've lived in Adelaide all my life, but I have never actually been in there.

Anyone else look at their teachers and tell them to each ham sandwiches?
I wonder how this forest looks today.

Mr Beast could learn a thing or two from this clip
This video is fascinating, but holy hell, good sir; how did you manage to do all that talking and walking in a rain forest environment while wearing that gigantic sweater? How much weight did you lose that day just from sweat?
There's a really high pitch in this video that is driving me crazy, and also will annoy teenagers and below
We get a few reports of that. It seems to be some technical mismatch as we can't hear it here and it doesn't show up in any waveforms - Rob
Perhaps it's due to being filmed in PAL 50hz. In US the rate was 60hz NTSC.?
now if we could just globalize this somehow...
