Episode 16— Homemade Telescope
Aired December 9, 2019 · 43 min

Synopsis
The team takes on a well-traveled leather case, a fantastic homemade telescope built from scrap metal and a century old decorative bowl that survived the Nazis. Suzie and Lucia make a start on the leather briefcase. Richard and Dom make a start on the scrapyard telescope. Meanwhile Kirsten takes on the jigsaw of the bowl smashed by the Nazis (and the cat). Suzie repairs and restores the leather work on the old case while Lucia refreshes the lettering on it. Dom tackles the metalwork and mechanics of the telescope.

Every stage matters — pitch decks and treatments from development, location scouts and table-reads from pre-production, set photos and crew anecdotes from production, edit-bay notes from post, and press kits, festival memories, or marketing ephemera from distribution. Any moment that didn't make the press tour, any document or photograph that's been sitting in a box — please share it so it's not lost to time.
We particularly welcome contributions from writers, producers, cast, crew, festival programmers, distributors, marketing teams, their families, and anyone who was there at any stage.
