Personal letters from ANZAC soldiers are read 100 years after they were written in touching tribute.

To commemorate ANZAC Day, Legacy and GPY&R Melbourne and Finch have created 'Letters of Gallipoli', a seven-part webisode series.

The letters are read by prominent Australian actors and personalities, including Vince Colosimo, Damon Herriman, Diana Glenn, John Howard, Gyton Grantley, Ita Buttrose and Josh Lawson.

Working with the Australian War Memorial, GPY&R researched the letters and diary entries written by Australians while they were aboard ships, fighting in the trenches and wounded in hospital beds.

The project uniquely documents the events as they happened over a century ago, through the personal accounts of soldiers and nurses writing to their loved ones.
