Can anyone answer: where are these online databases you speak about?
I might be able to help the search, possibly, if you show them to me.

All these threads announcing things found - where were they, and how did you manage to track them down?

Okay, I'd agree that in an ideal world everything should be kept. But in the real world, that may not be practical. If its only possible to keep some things, what should be kept, and what can be juinked?

missingepisodes.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=general&thread=7188&page=1#71336Paul Vanezis : "I am not someone who believes everything should be kept. But I do believe the right things should be kept." What ARE the right things to keep? These are just my opinions. Please share yours. Okay, for a start any kind of dramatic presentation should be kept. That's a no-brainer. Any thing with a scrupt where actors play a story is a unique and irreplaceable bit of television. None should ever be junked, no matter how loved or hated it is. Not even "Heil honey I'm home" should be thrown away. But there's plenty of things I don't care about keeping. I've never been interested in sport. I recognize that some people do, but is there any need to archive it? Does anyone care if horse racing from 1973 is lost forever? Keep significant ones, junk the rest. Pop music: in studio performances by bands are pretty interchangeable, IMHO. If you have one example of Bananerama performing Walk Like An Egyptian, do you need ten? They're just miming to a prerecorded track anyway. Interviews with Showaddywaddy on TISWAS, fair enough. Some people might be interested in that, even decades later. But frankly I'd be much more excited by the recovery of a Lenny Henry sketch. What are your thoughts?

The Twist as in the dance? Or as in who has the best twist-in-the-tale?

I doubt it. At about £600 in 1975 money to buy a VCR it would have been beyond the budget of most students.

I heard a while back that there is a surviving clip of the episode.
Why would they feel the need to 'ban' Manchester? The team would lose the round, thus be out of the competition. Next year the Manchester team would be 4 new people.

I've been to auctions. Here's a couploe of places I've attended www.greasbys.co.uk/catalogue.phpwww.frankgbowen.co.uk/ecatalogue.htmIt's possible they've retained their catalogue for sales several years ago, but it wouldn't do you any good. Buyers just turn up on the day, pay a deposit to get a bidder number. The auction house doesn't take their names. All the record would show is that a particular item was bought by bi9dder #217, and they would simply have no idea who that was.
