Duntroon: Marking Time (1970x1)

Air date: May 02, 1970

Peter Reid presents this controversial story on bastardisation at the Royal Military College, Duntroon. The use of re-enactments to illustrate acts of bastardisation led army minister Andrew Peacock to claim the show was 'partly faked'. The fact that the Queen was visiting at the time of filming was seen as an added embarrassment to the government of the day.
