Apollo 11 Moon Landing: 50th Anniversary Collection [DVD] [2019]

The three-disc BBC Moon Landing: 50th Anniversary Collection is fantastic insight of the Apollo programme through the eyes of the BBC.It is an impressive collection of programmes. These include the two programmes fronted by James Burke marking the 10th anniversary of Apollo 11 mission in 1979 and documentary made by the journalist James Cameron questioning the need for sending men to the Moon at all !All these programmes show the BBC at its best in celebrating this space anniversary, and does not disappoint the viewer. In fact they definitely engaging in covering all aspects regarding Project Apollo.

Bought back many memories of watching this unfold when i was very young.

An excellent collection of BBC archive films, including James Burke's 10th anniversary programmes, some vintage Sky At Night and the recent 8 Days show. Plenty to please a space nerd like me.Obviously quality varies but this set does not disappoint. The biggest draw for me is the disc showing the moonwalk synced to the available BBC TV audio. Brings back the sense of being there I had hoped, and noticed how spare the commentary by Burke and Moore was. When history is being made, these two professionals knew to let the pictures do the talking.

Good product. Arrived at time.

Bought this for my husband who really enjoyed it.

Worth getting for disc 2 alone, with James Burke's excellent documentaries from 1979. These contain multiple clips from interviews he had with astronauts, NASA officials etc. One of the most hilarious clips is of Jim Lovell explaining the intricacies of using the "toilet bags". He also describes the environment in which Apollo was conceived, and why it died.

I bought these mainly for the two 1979 10th anniversary programmes presented by James Burke, which are, IMHO, two of the best documentaries on the Apollo programme. The othe content is also up there. Recommended

Very pleased with this dvd of moon landing , had the original on 35 mm film but lost it while moving house , would recommend seller to every one , delivered well on time .
