SYDNEY - More than 40 years after leaving the set of Skippy the Bush Kangaroo, actor Tony Bonner has failed to win a share of the iconic television show's profits.
Bonner, who played helicopter pilot Flight Ranger Jerry King in the first series in 1968, had taken action in the NSW Supreme Court against Fauna Productions Pty.
He had been seeking either a A$750,000 ($938,000) payment or an undefined share of the profits.
Bonner had not established he was entitled to a share, Justice Ian Gzell said. Bonner was paid for his services under a work agreement.
