Yes it is that one, it was Channel five that showed it, it also aired the program The Truth behind the Moon Landings which debunked the moon hoax theorists.

Another thing I find strange. Land a few miles away from area 51 is identical to some of the land on the Moon shots, and how was the capsule filmed landing if no one else had visited the moon before hand
What shot of the landing were you thinking of? All the shots I know of were taken from the LEM. The shot of them going down the LEM ladder was done from a camera on a boom, that the astronaut swung into position prior to the EVA.

As for lift off on the later missions this was done from a remotely operated camera on the lunar rover, and it took several goes to get it right, as it was controlled from the ground.

One question, this was during the height of the cold war, if it was faked, the Russians, and several others would have exposed it as a fake, but the Russians acknowledged that they did it. Why would they have gone along with it if they could have humiliated them?
