Thanks to Ian Levines perseverence, he finally made contact with Alan Bromly's widow last week and recovered over 8500 telesnaps from her.
I plan to put these into the written archives centre of the BBC if they'll have them. They consist of the following complete episodes in Telesnap form:

The Big M 1-6 29/08/67 - 03/10/67
There is one further play which is missing the first 8 frames and is not in an envelope unlike the others. It's set at Stonehenge and was partly filmed on location there so if anyone has any idea as to what it may be...
Cura has made notes on the actual envelopes of how many 'snaps' are enclosed, the date of capture and in some cases what he thought of the programme. He has also noted whether a capture is from a live/taped broadcast or a telerecording although by the sixties he has stopped this practice.
Obviously, the bulk of Alan Bromlys sixties programmes do exist, but many of the fifties stuff I'm sure is missing although I will double check next week. Very nice to see 'The World of Tim Frazer' further represented plus a few new Durbridge shows I'd not heard of from the fifties.
Apparently, he loaned all his 'Out of the Unknown' telesnaps to someone in the late 70's/early 80's. If that's you, Alan's widow June would like them back!

Paul
