A classic TV show from the 1970s, albeit one that has vanished into obscurity today.

Number 96 was an Australian Prime Time Soap that followed the lives of residents of a block of flats in Sydney. It quickly gained notoriety for its subject matter, being the first TV show not only full frontal nudity and onscreen sex, but also a long-running homosexual relationship that drew no interest from other characters.
