Anecdotes

That Summer Day is a one-hour docudrama that provides a fictional account of the lives of six children on the day of the bombings of the London public transport system on 7 July 2005. It was directed by Jon East, written by Clive Bradley, produced by Hannah Pescod and executive produced by Jon East and Mark Redhead. The drama combines fictional elements and archive footage from television and radio to document the effect the events had on the children. The programme's creation is the result from the correspondence the CBBC website received following the events, from children struggling to come to terms with it.
