Or you could just turn down the colour on your TV set.

Red Dwarf managed to have enough outakes & let out material for 2 home video collections, a few years before DVDs started included extra bits as an insentive to buy them.

Sad news, she's a bit before my time, & didn't seemed to have much of a revival in the 1990s, unlike many 1970s acts.

I would also like a best of compilation from editons they couldn't show.
Yvonne Elliman's performance of If I Can't Have You was one performance I was please to see featured in the Disco compilation.

No time to check but I think some of them mentioned might be on the Charley videos.
I'll try to make a list of ones I remember that might exist, being shown in the 1980s might be a help.

I certainly have seen many other PIFs used in clip shows that aren't on the Charley compilations, so there's some hope.

I did read of a Cliff Richard Concert on the radio in quad in the early 1970s, what this televised as well?
Omnibus had a radio night in the early 1990s sometime.

The Awakening is a bit hit & miss, some good ideas such as the Malus feeding on anger, but if feels padded in places for even a 2 parter.
I did wonder what it would have been like as a 4 parts with Kamelion in, as originally planned.
I'll have to dig out the DWM Fact Of Fiction profile.

I've certainly heard of Tomb & The Daemons being bigged up before the 1990s, along with The Web Planet.

Some existing stories seemed to have been built up a reputation before they were released on video (or even a rare repeat).

Did they use Nigel Kneale's adaptation or another one that would work better on the radio?

I'm sometimes amused by watching things from just 10-15 years ago & noticing how much things have changed.

Worth remembering that Charles Hamilton/Frank Richards died 24/12/1961 (he was born in 1876) so had a chance the watch the 'Bunters',though he missed 'The Celestial Toymaker'... IIRC his family weren't too happy about Cyril.

Marni Nixon made a living supplying vocals for actresses who had singing voices which were deemed unsuitable.
