Britain's foremost survival expert, Ray Mears, goes walkabout in Australia in his new series for BBC Two.

Ray Mears sets out on his second of four journeys through the wilderness of the Australian Outback.

Ray Mears and "Bush-Tucker Man" Les Hiddins meet in this second episode in the series. The pair appear to have much in common, not least their love of the wilderness and indigenous people and their contributions to Bush craft.

Ray and Les take a trip across Les's home state of Queensland. Their journey starts in the jungle of the East Coast – full of "tucker" – slang for food – strange dinosaur-like nests and plants that leave a sting like no other. Here, Ray sleeps in a "swag" rather than his usual jungle hammock and shows how the buttresses of the local trees provide an opportunity for impromptu Bush craft.

Ray and Les visit Cape Tribulation on their way to Cooktown and tell of Captain Cook's journey up this coast.

As they journey, Ray and Les find that they have similar views on many things. Heading inland, they take a draining drive across the unchanging terrain of Queensland.

Finally, Ray and Les reach the crash site of Second World War bomber Little Eva. The site, which can only be reached via helicopter, symbolises how and why Les first became interested in Bush tucker.
