Oh well, I only watch about 1 hour of TV per day as it is, so I may as well sell the damn thing now.

Cheers Cc.

You have destroyed my life. Well, certainly insofar as the chances of getting anything done today are concerned, and then my wife will destroy me.

There's some good stuff!!

Better not tell you about the BBC's Tomorrow's World archive

Wondrous Rob. Thanks. Just wish here was more of it. Seems so crazy that the BBC has millions of hours of stuff they can't or won't show to us. Sigh.

Since we're doing archives, this is as good a place as any, for the sake of completeness, to put a link to the granddaddy of them all although it is largely American of course. Still, must be a billion years worth to watch. The Internet Movie Archive, that lives at

archive.org/details/movies

There are some old British public information films there, for example.
