If it is the same dealer don't bother if you're looking for quality - these are poor quality VHS copies of broadcasts from C4 and Bravo. One Scotland Yard episode that I bought still had the Part1/Part2 boards from the tele broadcast!!

with all this old transfered stuff I don't expect miracles but it needs to be of a reasonable quality, I expect a lot of people are viewing on LCD and Plasma screen tvs or good color crt sets ? wheres I am viewing on one of my restored 50 year old valve sets !!!! so for me I dont need that good a quality stuff anyway

That sounds cool Den !

I remember when I used to live down south there was an old electrical shop in Balham - it still had its old neon up, way on the top of the building. You could see it from the train as you were passing through. It was an Ekcovision sign - always made me smile broadly as we chugged past....

Ah the old Ekco sets I have maybe 30 in my collection,while modern tvs such as Lcd and Plasma will play all our old black and white films and tv shows, they can never replicate the picture quality of the original 405 line valve tv, I think lcd sets are a fantastic achievement but they are a different technology and therefore produce a different type of picture, I do have a couple of modern color cathode ray tube sets sets but I dont watch them much !!! I was brought up with black and white tv and never did take to colour

Can you help and mention as much as possible? Maybe those which are available on DVD or Video?
Many thanks in advance and personal emails to me most welcome.
Thanks from Spain

John Mills in Mr Denning Drives North is a crime cover-up film. Very enjoyable.
