I’ve heard the trailers for this program on Radio 4 tonight. Does anyone know if the program contains any soundtrack recovered from the unplayable reel to reel video tape of the BBC coverage of the Apollo 11 Moon landing that Paul V. recovered some time ago? I seem to remember that someone said that the soundtrack was OK, it was just the video that was u/s.

I haven't listened to the doc, but the full 12 minutes of sound from the early morning (July 21st) repeat of the Moonwalk is featured on track 3 on the new DVD that BBC Video has just released. You can purchase just the Moonwalk disc, or the box set which has the Moonwalk disc included as a 3 disc box set. Paul |

I haven’t heard the finished programme yet, but I went to the recording of it a few weeks ago and I was pleased to see that although it was radio, we were shown the video of the clips on a screen. I don’t know the source but one of the clips could well be the footage you describe, very badly breaking up pictures but ok soundtrack.
I shall give it a listen later to see if it made the final edit.

Thanks, that would be interesting to know. I’ve recorded the program but haven’t listened to it yet.

I’ve now heard the finished programme.
Don’t think anything was edited apart from tightening gaps and losing the occasional slip up, so the clip I think you are referring to is in the finished programme- it was used to illustrate when things went wrong in the studio. Again slightly edited I think to lose some of the silence when nothing happened when they tried to show a pre recorded clip.
