00:00There was an old woman called Isla who could not find her vagina.
00:10Meet Aussie bush mechanic and carriage driving legend, Isla Roberts.
00:16They don't make them like Isla any more.
00:18I could go down a well and pull a bloody dead kangaroo out, garden, that lovely garden.
00:23Eugh, kill a sheep.
00:27She lives a quiet life in Australia, with her friend Susan.
00:36Friend, yes.
00:38Do you think?
00:40Your constant companion?
00:41Stop it!
00:42Isla's kind.
00:43So I shot it.
00:44I cut all their throats.
00:45The dog's eighties brines.
00:48If you want a horse, dog, cow put down for some reason, she doesn't do humans.
00:55Bang!
00:57Is it?
01:00And very, very straight.
01:02I'm not a lesbian.
01:03Isla's not a lesbian, you know that, don't you?
01:05She is.
01:06I'm Isla Roberts.
01:07Cool stop.
01:09And no one can tell Isla what to do.
01:11You're no longer actually driving.
01:13I will be.
01:15I'm sorry, but no you won't be.
01:17Nobody can stop me carriage driving.
01:19Come and see what the critics are calling formidable, feisty and fun.
01:25But a bona fide ripper of a documentary.
01:29So saddle up and get ready for a wild ride with Isla's Way.
01:33Did we say she was tough?
01:35Nearly bloody 90 and I still cry about it.
