Production
On 6 December 2017, Foxtel announced that A Place to Call Home had been renewed for a sixth season.[1] It was later announced, on 19 March 2018 that the 10-episode sixth season would be the series' last.[2]
Production on the sixth season began on 19 March 2018.[2]
Of the show's return, Foxtel's Executive Director of Television, Brian Walsh stated, "Simply put, A Place to Call Home is one of the finest pieces of drama ever produced for Australian television. The series will be long remembered for its captivating narrative, outstanding performances and world class production values. Foxtel is proud to have been its home for the past four seasons and there is no doubt that it will be missed. A Place to Call Home was a series which was saved by its fans and so the journey of this, the final chapter, is a very important one. It was imperative for us that the series retain its integrity and that we would bring the series to a close at its natural story point and that is what everyone who loves the show can expect."[2]
Foxtel's Head of Drama, Penny Win stated, "At Foxtel we have loved bringing this series to audiences and we know that it will be a beautiful closing chapter created by Bevan Lee, and the amazing cast and crew."[2]
