Does anyone remember a 1980 kids tv programme in the australian outback that started off with a real life kangaroo that then became animated but still against a real back ground. I also had a koala a platypus and a little girl. Can't for the life of me thing of the name!

I forget the exact name, but for some reason I'm thinking of a cartoon called "Blinky the Wombat" or something.  He had his Outback animal friends and their nemisis were the dingos.  That's all I can remember.  The show hasn't been on TV for years.  Don't think it's the show your looking for though... :-/
