Maybe this means it will be a bit more warts and all, as opposed to a love fest for the fallen martyr that I'm sure Bev would have turned out.

You assume correct.

She has pitched her story to three production companies including Shine Australia about making it into a TV movie/mini series. Apparently she chose another production company, so Shine decided to make their own mini series about Brock.

Shine also made the INXS mini series and Beverley believes their version will be sensationalised and not adherent to the truth. Or something...

Hardly earth-shattering news (not that I condone that sort of thing), but it seems like almost yearly Bev Brock is finding new ways to cash in on him.

I never understood why Bev Brock wielded such influence over his post death "image" when as I recall she was divorced from him and he had moved on with another woman before he died. If anything it's his children that should have any and all say over it.

Like with any film production it's impossible to do a bio accurately because it's hard to sum up a persons life in a few hours on the screen.

I don't hold other people in God like worship, but I was sad when he died. He was like any man, he had his failings, set backs and downsides. Mostly it's just best he is left to rest in peace and if anyone is "cashing in" it should only be his children.

Added edit:
Given the link below must have been written in Aug/Sept last year, I have no idea if this article is about the same concept or by the same team as the mini series that started this thread, but someone else thinks the same way as Pecky:

Take it from someone in the acting biz here in Aus. We don't really do this stuff justice. If they want to do a bio on Peter's life, a Senna type doco would be brilliant.

Ten. Its still not confirmed from what I understand, Ten has had history before of announcing drama productions that don't eventuate. Something suggests to me that Bev Brock has unwittingly helped in the publicity to find $$...
