video

From: Wikipedia.org
Whiplash was an Australian television series made by the Seven Network and ATV and ITC Entertainment. Filmed in 1960-61, the series was first broadcast 1961 and had opening titles featuring the Australian locale and terrain, and a dozen wild kangaroos.

Set in the 1860s, the series is a western filmed in Australia, and stars Peter Graves as "Christopher Cobb". The series is loosely based on the life of Freeman Cobb, who was the genuine founder of Australia's first stagecoach line Cobb and Co. Peter Graves, in his character of Christopher Cobb, used a bullwhip rather than a pistol to settle disputes.
