Just Us is a 1986 television film, based on a true story and the autobiography by Gabrielle Carey, of the same name. Set in Sydney, Australia, but filmed mainly in Melbourne, it starred Scott Burgess and Catherine McClements. It was written by Ted Roberts and directed by Gordon Glenn.[1]
The autobiography written by Gabrielle Carey tells her story of how she made the 'mistake' of falling in love with Terry Haley, a prison inmate at Parramatta Gaol.
The character's names were changed for the movie, in which, Jessica Taylor (McClements), a young journalist, is sent to a maximum security prison to watch a debate and gather up information for a story she is writing. It is there that she meets long-term prisoner Billy Carter (Burgess), and after a while, the pair fall in love and want to get married.
Just Us was filmed in Melbourne, though set in Sydney and Adelaide. The locations of both Parramatta Gaol and Yatala Gaol was filmed using the exterior and interior of Old Melbourne Gaol. Other notable locations included:
