This Fabulous Century was a 37-part series produced by the Seven Network, after Luck's previous employer, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation had declined, believing that a series that relied so heavily on black-and-white film, when the country had only recently switched to colour television, would not be successful. It was shown on Sunday nights on Seven, and became the hit of 1979.

Peter Luck was raised in Adelaide, South Australia, and attended Findon High School. Luck was married to Penny for 43 years, and they had a son and daughter. Luck suffered a stroke which left him with limited speech and physical incapacity.
