I did ask on this forum before about Survival i thinks it's unclear on how many do exactly exist.

I wrongly assumed that Anglia's Survival all existed as it was a programme that was on film, not VT - however I now realize that although you can't erase and reuse film you can certainly chuck it in a skip, and that was clearly done far too often.

That's interesting because Anglia managed to export Survival quite well from what I've heard, but that's no guarantee of survival (no pun intended!)

Apparently,there were several documentaries announced,the others being:
DISCOVERY 70: SURVIVAL – The Homecoming tx: 31.10.1967
Written by Collin Willock; directed by Stanley Joseph; music by Johnny Dankworth
Introduced and sung by Eiko Nakamura
Spring in a Japanese village brings a special surprise…..
16mm print.
The style and tone of the early Survival series were very different to the later wildlife-concentrated series. Note the inclusion of musical numbers.
Moving the Survival archive from Norwich to Leeds has revealed to ITV that many editions survive only on negatives; or are incomplete or are undubbed films that need re-cutting; or in many early cases; no longer exist at all.
These early editions are welcome returns for ITV.
DISCOVERY 71: Work – “Mining” ATV Schools tx:Jan-March 1978.
Presented by Sylvester McCoy
16mm print.
Here again, the episode title doesn’t match anything listed on ITV paperwork but the entire series is missing so I haven’t unspooled masses of film. It's an edition from a completely missing series and when we run the film, we'll know which one it is. Sadly TV Times is no help at all.
My thanks to Steve Birt as always.
DISCOVERY 72: Look - Cairngorm Country tx: 29.11.1963
Produced by Jeffery Boswall.
Genome says:
“A journey on pony-back with Peter Scott and Rhona of Alltnacriche, climbing from the banks of the Spey to the summit of Cairngorm .
Wildlife sequences filmed by CHRISTOPHER MYLNE for the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds
Film editor, Jim Tobin
Music composed by TONY DESMOND and played by a section of the BBC WEST OF ENGLAND PLAYERS. From the West
16mm print
Thanks to Steve Birt, my good friend and all roun
