Presented by Shane Jacobson, this is the first documentary ever made about one of the most tragic and monumental events in Australia’s history.

At 11.50am on October 15, 1970, two years into its construction, Melbourne’s West Gate Bridge collapsed when a 2,000-tonne section broke off and plunged 50 metres to the water below, taking with it the lives of 35 construction workers.

The survivors and the shattered families have never fully told their intimate stories of survival, grief, injustice, reform – even pride – until now, on the 50th anniversary of the disaster.

Australians are never stuck for an opinion. Just ask us.

Since the arrival of The First Fleet the inhabitants of this small continent have had a healthy skepticism (to the point of disregard) for authority, pretension, and entitlement. Respect is earned, not ordained. We’ve been kicking against the pricks for a couple of centuries. And that’s something worth shouting about.

The People Speak is the rallying cry from our past. Contemporary actors, activists and agitators breathe new life into the speeches, songs and letters from past eras that stirred up change.

The production won Most Outstanding Factual Program at the 2014 ASTRA Awards.

First screened 2 December 2012.

This engaging factual series is set at Coolibah cattle station, 600 km south-west of Darwin, Australia. It follows the daily lives of the Jones family as they muster cattle, fight fires, battle floods and even wrestle crocodiles.

This raw and humorous snapshot of family life shows just what it takes to live in the outback.

Shot over a six month period, the production was a massive undertaking. Accommodation and a production office were specially installed – the crew living in ‘dongas’ – in one of the most remote parts of Australia.
