Thanks for this historical treat! Wonderful glimpses of the revue and interviews with cast, writers, and others involved with the show who became household names through Australian television’s first satirical series

Stephan Wellink’s well researched and engagingly presented documentary shows how The Mavis Bramston Show expanded the cultural boundaries of conservative Australia in 1964, using satire to lampoon the establishment and spotlight taboo topics. Well chosen clips interwoven with reminiscences from cast and creatives make a satisfying portrait of this groundbreaking show.
