Parker Finds Large Gold Nuggets In Australia!

Maybe I didn't see everything but I don't think Parker found any big nuggets.  He was 'shown' big nuggets in Victoria on the first episode.  Now they're off for places North or West.

He looked very uncomfortable around a metal detector.

That's gold that was found on a lease in Corindhap. The first week they were in Vic and filmed in Creswick (only found a few tiny bits), Corindhap (on a lease) and then filmed some stuff in the Ballarat Gold Museum. They then went down some old mines with the Victorian Historical Mine Shaft Chasers group before heading up to Qld where they are filming now. 

Tyler from Aussie Gold Hunters has joined Parker as well as a new guy named Fred who you will see around Episode 13 of this seasons Gold Rush.

and here we are in Arizona looking for bits......

Parker's Episode 2 was worth the watch last night.  No huge nuggets and a lot of hard work.  My first look at anything Queensland.

Tyler's Trial

In the legendary Palmer goldfields, Parker and his team encounter a lucrative family-run mining operation and discover dirt far richer than anything they've ever seen in the Yukon. But convincing the family to lease him virgin ground will come at a price.

Not sure how these should be numbered (and Discovery Channel's numbering doesn't help...).  I think last night in USA they showed the 4th episode from Australia.  The quote you posted looks like it's from the 3rd episode.

Parker's been extra nice Down Under.  Mr. Hyde is just waiting inside to blast forth.  I'm thinking his full operation won't air until next year (Fall TV season in USA).  I've been entertained with this latest sub-series in Australia, seeing the varied scenery and learning the accents ?, but once they get to mining and being nasty, I'll probably quit watching again.

I watch the Tuna shows and some others and the bottom line for me is the size of the live tuna.  In what order they were caught and the splicing together of the good weather/bad weather segments to make one 'story' is very distracting.  I just want to see the fish that are caught.

If Parker is holding new nuggets that have not been previously shown or found before this series then I'm glad they did it and they are not fake nuggets.  If they are fake then kick all of them off and Discovery Channel with them.

"ALL" ...reality shows a set-up--- they could not afford to follow a detectorist around all day whilst filming---

Look at a lot of the nuggets that are clean when they come out of the ground---

but it can entertaining... just remember it is fiction....

You are right about 2 and the rest of the episodes.  I don't know which is which.  I've only seen two of them but here is the list of episodes.

I need to go back to ON DEMAND and see all of them.

Seeing the Palmer Goldfields in Jonathan's backyard was fun.

Seeing someone find a nugget and putting the detector away right after was BS....reminds me of the GPAA gold shows where gold was just laying around like candy at the store...

Mostly I love seeing the country...because

I Love Australia
