Foreign Correspondent S21E13 · That Was Then This Is Now

Overview

Foreign Correspondent celebrates 20 years of Australia's finest international television reporting with 'That Was Then This is Now', a one-hour special featuring the return of much loved alumni to reflect on their most memorable moments and - for former host and reporter Jennifer Byrne and former Europe correspondent Tony Jones - a return to the scenes of their landmark reporting for the program. Jennifer reprises an early assignment in New York on the spectacular dot-com boom of the late '90s and chases the internet revolution forward with characters from her original story. Tony heads back to Bosnia and his powerful reporting of the Balkans' conflict of the '90s. Some things change dramatically and fundamentally alter the way we live our lives, others remain mired in the past and barely change at all.
