Top End Bub

Lauren is a dynamic Indigenous lawyer ticking off life goals in Adelaide. She's married to Ned, a handsome husband who makes fresh croissants. What else could a person need? After Lauren's eight-year-old niece is orphaned, the couple reluctantly abandons their big-city goals and move to the Top End to raise the child. While Lauren and Ned juggle the responsibility of becoming unexpected parents and try to keep their marriage together, Lauren must come to terms with her responsibilities within her culture as she transforms from an individualist to the linchpin of her family.

Directed by Joshua Tyler, Miranda Tapsell, Top End Bub leans on a strong ensemble — Miranda Tapsell, Gwilym Lee, Ursula Yovich — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2025.
