Eight Scottish kids, Harry, Lucy, Simon, Chrissie, David, Sarah, Leon and Shona and their teacher, Gerry. Are part of a UFO club at their school in Falkirk. They are given a video diary before they leave on a trip to Australia to study a reported UFO sighting. When they arrive at Australia they meet the head ranger, Arnie and the park ranger who is going with them, Melissa. Melissa takes Arnie to one side and tells him that they have been having radio problems in the area they are camping at and she doesn't know the area that well. Chrissie gets jealous of Shona and sabotages the medical supplies. That night,after they set up. Sarah hears a noise outside, so she goes of to investigate and finds her self face to face with bright flashing lights. The camera stops (end of episode)

Sarah bursts into the tent and tells the others that she has seen a UFO. The others don't believe her, so she says she'll show them the recording she filmed. When she rewinds the video she discovers that she has accidentally taped over it. The next day they are split up into groups. Lucy and Sarah go and dig some toilet holes for the campers. Melissa, Leon and David go and try to find some water. They find a river and they notice an abandon canoe, which they find some backpacks and a newspaper dating ten years back,open to an article on a UFO sighting in the area. Meanwhile Simon and Chrissie go and set up the monitoring equipment. On their way back they notice a mound a believe it is an aboriginal tombstone. Back at the camp Gerry tells Shona and Harry what got him interested in UFOs. When the others come back Simon and Chrissie tells them about the tomb stone. The others want to see it. When they arrive Melissa tells them it only a magnetic termite mound. Later Simon leaves his boats
