Season 1 Episode 6: The Making of ANZACS

Nov 24, 1985NR53m7.3

A nice inclusion after hours of living in the pockets of these characters, is History in the Making - The Making of Anzacs. At 45 minutes it manages to squeeze a lot of quality stuff in, such as interviews with key cast and crew, and more technical aspects of filmmaking such as stunts, effects, costuming, design and the music. It is narrated and has the same technical specifications as the feature.
