YEP - This is a find!

Congratulation Kelvin Walker, thank you, and please find anything missing you can!

(added to the 2020 list, which is well under way....)

[Kevin Wilson]

Amazing something dated so late was lost. How come this was missing in the first place? Did they think qos wasnt worth keeping?

[Ray Langstone (was saintsray)]

Sporadic episodes are missing after the late 70's; one episode of a later vintage is lost because the tape was damaged.

[garygraham]

One of the demolition crew on New Broadcasting House in Manchester in 2013 said that tapes marked A Question of Sport were in the rubble. He asked what video format they were likely to be. Could just have been duplicates if none are missing.

(ALL FINE THEREAFTER)

If anyone finds any episodes, can they either get in touch with me on the Forum or Kaleidoscope. Thank you!

[Richard Marple]

I remember one episode was interrupted by a fire alarm which caused the studio to be evacuated.

While waiting outside one team asked members of the audience for help with the picture board, but the production team found out & changed the picture which had been seen before the alarm went off.

This was all shown on a documentary & I wondered if the whole of the studio tapes had been retained.

Richard, the clip you mentioned about the fire alarm was shown on the 20th anniversary edition of A Question of Sport, there was one pick to go and Ian Botham chose Number 11, which was a boxer (Chris Eubank). That's when the fire alarm went off. Whilst the building was being evacuated, Botham was asking the studio audience who it was. Then the producers changed the picture to Nigel Benn, wearing a part of a towel over his head with a small dumbell hanging loosely from it. Also at the very end of that show, David Coleman asks the viewers who is the mystery Highland Guardsman playing the bagpipes during the closing credits, who was Bill Beaumont.

Yes that sounds right.
