This year they wheeled out the 1971 Christmas show and bundled it together with the broadcast of two lost episodes found in a former Sierra Leone cinema. They looked stunning Smile


It's amazing what they can do with these beat up old telerecordings (in the clip before of Philip Morris and Michael Aspel watching it the film looked in a terrible state). Very hard to tell it wasn't from a colour videotape to begin with. It looks even better than the Dad's Army restoration from 2008, though I imagine the techniques for restoration have come a long way in those 10 years.

TV Whirl - Celebrating 20 Purple Years

One of my earliest memories of TV Forum was a bunch of trolls, I assume from a school or college, flooding the forum with insulting posts about James Spiring one afternoon.
