FLAT WHITE: Six O'Clock Spill

  • Summary

  • The Temperance Hall was first constructed on it's current site in 1863 by the Emerald Hill Total Abstinence Society. From its inception it was used as a community space for meetings, concerts and other social activities. For a century the Temperance movement in Victoria had a strong hold on Melbourne, achieving restricted trading hours from 1915 through to 1963. Thus emerged the phenomena known as the 6 O'Clock Swill and a cultural legacy of entrenched binge drinking. Here is the Temperance story - the good, the bad and the present.

    FEATURING: Daniel Brasher, Josh Hayes, Scott Knight, Maree Shefford, Damian Vuleta and Samsara. Theme music by MBRYO
