The Dam Busters is a 1954 Australian radio serial written by Morris West and produced by Gordon Grimsdale. [1]

It was based on the book The Dam Busters by Paul Brickhill. West and Grimsdale also did radio adaptations of Brickhill's books The Great Escape and Reach for the Sky.[2][3] West wrote these after relocating to Sydney from Melbourne following the end of his first marriage.[4]

A number of the cast had served in the airforce during World War Two.[5]

The Sydney Daily Telegraph said "The wonder of this programme lies in the consistently true characterisation given by each performer."[6]
