Bump. Yeah, I know I'll probably get flack for re, re, re bumping this thread, but just on the off chance that someone reading this might, just might have some new info about the missing serial Seven Serpents Sulphur and Salt possibly being exported for viewing outside the UK with the still intact Season 3? (Please see further back in the thread for more info). Considering how widely sold it was its odd that nothing has survived from the first 2 series .

Hello...way back in 1982 I wrote to Thames TV to ask them what AOW they still had in their archives and which countries they sold AOW to. They wrote back with a list of all 3rd series episodes which they held. From what I remember they stated that they had sold the series to Canada, Malta, Yugoslavia and I think the Carribean (not sure if it was a particular island). I suppose there may still be a glimmer of a chance that the tapes/filmsof series1 and 2 may still be in existance there? The Tomorrow People was well distributed by Thames....I used to have TP videos from Oz...mainly copies from grainy film prints in the 80s so could there still be film prints of AOW still in existance in those countries? (I know Yugoslavia is now split into about 7 countries). Prob long shot..as other researchers may have checked whilst looking for other stuff... I've had no luck yet finding anything yet, but....it is TRUE that Thames sold shows in Yugoslavia! I found a few 'Viewpoint' episodes (of the English Programme) in Slovenia.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was catalogued in an archive or two as 'Banana Man'.
(Only kidding).

If it’s passed anyone by, Fred Owl’s page on Twitter is well worth a visit. Lots of good stuff on there including some pretty good recons of Missing Episodes and detailed export lists. twitter.com/fred_owl
