Bodgie is an Australian television movie, or rather a live television play with filmed sequences, which aired on ABC during 1959. Originally broadcast on 12 August 1959 in Sydney on ABN-2, a kinescope recording was made of the program and shown in Melbourne on ABV-2 on 2 September 1959.
At the time, most live plays broadcast on Australian television were simply performances of overseas plays. Bodgie represents an early example of depicting Australia in the context of a television drama, along with soap opera Autumn Affair (1958–1959), hospital series Emergency (1959), and a few other live plays. (It was an adaptation of a British story, but relocated to Australia.)
It is not known if the kinescope recording of the broadcast is still extant or not.
