Kettering, the town in which this series is set, was the site of a celebrated UFO sighting in February 1976. Around this time period, Tasmania was considered Australia's biggest UFO hotspot. For instance, just two years following the first Kettering sighting, a pilot reported making contact with an unidentified flying object in nearby King Island. Ten years later, in 1998, hundreds of residents of King Island reportedly saw "strange lights in the sky," with sightings going on for an entire week. As recently as 2013, residents have reported lights floating above their property, darting off in different directions.
Dr. Anna Macy (Elizabeth Debicki) wears Fergus (Henry Nixon)'s old 'The Saints' t-shirt for much of the series. 'The Saints' were a seminal Australian punk rock band that originated in Brisbane in 1973. In real life, Nixon's father (a recording engineer) engineered, mixed, and co-produced the band's fourth album 'The Monkey Puzzle.'
The Kettering Pub seen in the series is actually the Lewisham Tavern, which is a little over an hour's drive from the town of Kettering.
Filmed on the Australian island state of Tasmania, the series was one of the highest profile shoots in the region since The Hunter (2011). The Tasmania Government, through Screen Tasmania, invested one million dollars - of an almost fifteen million budget - in the series. Upon its release, it was the biggest television production yet made in the state.
Had an eighteen-week shoot, which took place from late August to December 2014. From the start of filming, it would take the series almost two years to premiere on television.
