The Dismissal 1975 - Where Were You?
Fifty years after the Governor-General of Australia sacked his Prime Minister, how do we remember the events of that day? Gough Whitlam, Malcolm Fraser and Sir John Kerr were the principal actors, but thousands of other Australians were there too and they had their parts to play in the political drama.
