Episode Details

At 97, Doug Harrison still wakes at dawn to tend his family’s remote sheep station, proving age is just a number when passion meets purpose. He took over Langwell Station in 1946, married his wife Joy, raised three kids, survived a deadly 1982 drought, and even earned his pilot’s license at 23—later mentoring his own pilot son. Now, his grandsons run the property while he still drives a ute, tractor, and gopher, often with his chihuahua tagging along. His mantra? “If you’ve got nothing to do when you wake up, what’s the point of getting up at all?” A living legend of grit, land, and relentless purpose.
