Talking about British mini-series, I'd like to see:-

Something In Disguise (1982) mini-series with Anton Rodgers.
Glasgow Kiss (2000) six-part mini-series with Sharon Small.

I have been after this too. A nice sinister turn from Richard Vernon in this one.

Sorry mate........ I think I've found all mine...........

I had one of the Danzigers films mentioned earlier ESCORT FOR HIRE. Recorded from ITV about 1984 but accidentally taped over it a few years ago.
Doubtful if that one will ever appear on TV again.

Population Zero with Oliver Reed i have it on tape but i taped it off the tv 20 years ago so its not as good as it used to be.

I have this mini-series on 4 discs if you are still looking and it won't cost you £140!!

I have been looking for these for some time:

Flesh and Blood (1951)
Escape to Danger (1943)
The White Unicorn (1947)
Noose for a Lady (1953)

Crunchie,
I've been trying to locate ALL U ask for, &, indeed, DID lo-
cate "Ramsbottom," which, contrary to popular belief, IS en route
to Me. I'll let U know if & when, the others turn-up.

Some tough ones:
The Woman for Joe (1955)
The Boy and the Bridge (1959)
Badger's Green (1948)
Up for the Cup (1950)
It Started in Paradise (1952) (perhaps the easiest to get)

I have this I downloaded off the net a while back. It's archived on a DVD-R somewhere (unlabeled) if you're looking for it.

I too would love to see "Badgers Green" from 1948 - I think there are other versions too, all equally hard to find

[Grebmoolb]

Sorry I Can't Answer ALL the PM's I'm getting, but, I'm tied-up w/"Cinefest," Syra-
cuse, NY, USA, this Wknd., finding Films for People attending. Just leave Your
"Wants" on this thread, but, as for Me finding, pls. keep Titles, pre-1959.
Thanks.
