Number 96
Number 96 was one of the most groundbreaking and controversial TV shows in the history of Australian television. It was not only the first show to feature on-screen nudity, it portrayed gay, transgender and interracial relationships with honesty that was way ahead of its time. It was also a technical innovator; writing, filming and marketing at a pace that saw over a 1000 episodes, a movie, numerous books and spin-offs created in the space of five years.
This is is the first book to bring all those involved in Number 96 together in print to tell the show’s story in their own words. Over five years, author Nigel Giles criss- crossed the country in person and by mail to gather the personal accounts of over fifty members of the cast and crew, who kindly shared their stories and their treasure trove of memorabilia. The result is an unparalleled behind-the-scenes look at all the highs, lows, twists and stories of Australia’s most notorious address.
This is is the story of the magic and mania of Number 96, told by the people who made it.
