Peter Anthony Luck (5 January 1944 – 6 September 2017) was an Australian author, TV journalist, producer and presenter. Among the shows he worked on were This Day Tonight, Four Corners, Sunday, Today Tonight, Inside Edition, Bicentennial Minutes … A Time to Remember, This Fabulous Century, The Australians, 50 Fantastic Years and Where Are They Now?.
Contents
This Fabulous Century was a 37-part series produced by the Seven Network, after Luck's previous employer, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation had declined, believing that a series that relied so heavily on black-and-white film, when the country had only recently switched to colour television, would not be successful. It was shown on Sunday nights on Seven, and became the hit of 1979.
Personal life
Luck was married to Penny for 43 years, and they had a son and daughter.
Death
Luck died on 6 September 2017 at Concord Repatriation General Hospital. He had cancer and Parkinson's disease when he died.
