Default 1950's TV
Wonder if anyone can help.

I have a 1950's TV, just serviced, and have a standards converter etc so i can watch it, but what i would like to try and get is 1950's Tv programmes to watch on it. I have the Quatermass DVD's but does anyone know of what else i can get? thanks

The original Twilight Zones are available, as are Alfred Hitchcock Presents, the Richard Greene Robin Hoods, William Russell's Lancelot, Robert Shaw in The Buccaneers, The Army Game, William Tell....and Torchy the Battery Boy...
A good place to start is Network, a UK company that has released most of the UK material mentioned, as well as a good selection of early and mid-60's telly too... Catalogue Should be good fun...


You're obviously a faster typist than me, Harbottle...

I think The Invisible Man was a late 50's show? and is available on DVD.

Yet so much 1960's TV is lost! Sad indeed
