- In this jovial session, English biographer and journalist Andrew Lycett described James Bond creator Ian Fleming as the "model of James Bond" himself. He explained how Fleming came from a wealthy family background and his father was killed during the First World War, a major setback in his life. He said Fleming's mother had been 'a major influence,' and that Fleming had tried his hand at various jobs before he eventually end up in naval intelligence, where he worked as an assistant to the director, an experience which also had a great influence on him. Lycett stated that Fleming later on got bored with his job and expressed a desire to write a book on spies to one of his colleagues. Fleming got ideas for his books from the people he met during the war, and his writing was also based on fantasy and family dynamics involving the role of his father. Lycett commented that Senator Kennedy put one of the Flemings Bond novels in his top ten novels of his choice. Author of bestseller Bond sequel 'Devil May Care', Sebastian Faulks was asked about how he conceived James Bond after reading various of the novels, to which he replied, that normally, "I don't write this kind of books nor read them". He said that he found the novels better than he had expected, but when asked to write a sequel, had decided to make some changes to Fleming's format, including to make the settings more exotic. Faulks said he used 75% of Fleming's style. There was discussion about Bond girls, and Faulks said he had created a modern Bond girl who was 'better than Bond' at times.

- For nearly six decades (and counting), James Bond has been dazzling movie screens all over the world, thrilling us with high-octane adventures and signature suave super-spy style. Since the first film's release in 1962, the James Bond series has grown into the fourth highest-grossing film franchise of all time. These days, a "Bond movie" is simply just shorthand for a full-blown, totally engrossing cinematic experience. The actors, the action, the wardrobe, and of course the music all coalesce to give a Bond movie its magic. And with the last two Bond films winning Academy Awards for their respective original songs (coming after countless Bond song Oscar nominations throughout the series' history), we thought it was about time to really zero in on 007 original music and answer the burning question: What makes a Bond theme sound like a Bond theme? We enlisted the help of our own in-house J. Bond to break it down for us.
- An episode in the life of pioneer Australian animator, Eric Porter, and his creation of one of the most iconic and enduring of Australian advertising images. In the 1930s and 40s, Eric Porter had established himself as an efficient and innovative all-rounder in the Australian film industry, making a living from sponsored work and cinema commercials. He branched out into producing and directing a dramatic feature film, 'A Son is Born' (1946) with Peter Finch and Ron Randell, and whenever he could he explored the possibilities of animation. As an animator, he was largely self-taught but there is evidence that he reached out to Disney for advice and received helpful replies. In 1942, an opportunity arose that changed the course of his career. Through a casual conversation he found himself commissioned to make an animated cinema commercial for local entrepreneurs Bert Appleroth and Albert Lenertz who wanted new and exciting ways to promote their very successful Aeroplane Jelly, a brand of brightly packaged crystals that had attached itself to the current craze for aviation, and was famous for a catchy musical jingle to promote the jelly on radio. For the first time, Porter felt creatively free to develop an animation concept and style, and came up with a two-minute animated commercial called 'Bertie the Aeroplane'. The film was such a success that, like the Aeroplane Jelly song, had a life of its own. It was followed by a second animated commercial, 'Bertie the Jet' in 1954. In making these two films, Porter was free to experiment with animation techniques and with colour, and the films led the way for his future work in animation, culminating with an animated feature, 'Marco Polo vs the Red Dragon' in 1972, and in television programs. The films also were a vehicle for Porter's own mischievous sense of humour. 'Animating Aeroplane Jelly' celebrates this turning point in Porter's career - a moment which was also a turning point in the history of Australian animation. The films went further to help to embed the Aeroplane Jelly song as an iconic and much loved part of national popular culture, still loved and sung widely 70 years later, just as Bertie the Aeroplane toys are still marketed widely.
- One of Australia's most famous photographers and explorers, Frank Hurley, presents this absorbing film on the history of Australia's first expeditions to the Antarctic continent between 1911 and 1954. In the summer of 1911, a group of pioneers set off from Hobart on the tall ship Aurora to an unknown land. Their send-off was captured by Hurley in remarkable, archival footage. Buffeted by blizzards, and with the ever-present threat of crevasses, they made Cape Dennison in Commonwealth Bay their base for one year. Hurley describes his subsequent expeditions to the region with Shackleton, Wilkins and Campbell. Campbell's expedition in 1947 saw the establishment of scientific stations at Heard and Macquarie Islands. In 1954, Hurley joined the expedition led by Phillip Law on the Danish ice-breaker, the Kista Dan. Hurley's original footage shows the ship edging its way across the pack ice to the safety of the harbour where the first permanent Australian post in the Antarctic, Mawson Station was established. A rare film which reveals the true hardship and courage of these early pioneers.
