Days that Shook the World Series I and II
Drama Reconstructions of key moments in history told through the prism of first person testimonies of the people closest to the action itself. From closing down Dealey Plaza in Dallas to drinking Margaritas with the Newman family, the closest spectators to JFK when he was shot; to filming a Palestinian hostage sequence, with actors armed with replica AK47s, spray painting Arabic slogans in a live army base with extremely jumpy guards; to having a replica of the Crown painstakingly, and expensively, created, only to be smashed up, this series brought history alive again for both viewer and production personnel.
