Currently on Daily Motion, after being taken down and then re-instated. I'm not sure about the legality of this, tbh - you'd assume the soundtrack is (c) the BBC, but apparently Levine is successfully claiming Fair Use (which seems ridiculous to me, but I'm no lawyer). www.dailymotion.com/video/x8udnui

According to Coronation Street Wiki at coronationstreet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_1202_(24th_July_1972), episode 1202 TX 24 July 1972 is the only episode missing from the archives. If you scroll down to Notes, you can see all the detail. It says “It would appear that soon after transmission of Episode 1202 in 1972, the only copy of it was either lost, destroyed or erased.” But based on previous discussions on this forum, all episodes exist. So is the Coronation Street Wiki site wrong? Some older forum threads also state that there are a few episodes which are not in good enough condition to be viewed. I wonder if that’s true? Granada's solution to the gap in their programme is quite interesting (taken from lostmediaarchive.fandom.com/wiki/Coronation_Street_Episode_1202_(Only_Lost_Episode)#Discovered_as_Missing)Reconstitution Realising the narrative gap in the story could affect the sale to the overseas market, Granada then attempted to try to find anything they had to recreate the episode. However the production were unable to locate a single copy of the script from either the Writer Adele Rose, or in the Archive, but they found an detailed Outline of the synopsis which included the Cast List and the Sets used for each scene as well as shots used. P694/203A Under the title P694/203A, Granada got the following actors: Doris Speed, Betty Driver, Stephen Hancock, Robert Keegan, Peter Adamson, Barbara Mullaney, Irene Sutcliffe and Jeremy Young and only three sets: The Rovers, Rita Littlewood’s flat and Benny Lewis’s flat to recreate about 8 minutes of 1202 as the opening part to an now abridged version of Episode 1203 in order to create an episode of normal length, the only scene that was kept from the original outline in this revision was Annie firing Jacko. This revised version has never been transmitted in the United Kingdom and, presumably, the complete version of Episode 1203 has never been sold abroad.

I'm pretty clueless about Missing stuff, but here's a site called Made In Maidstone www.youtube.com/@madeinmaidstone-xt5tn/videos which has only recently appeared and it has a lot of (presumably) TVS shows, No 73, It's A Mystery, On Safari, Highway, Dramarama etc. I know who the uploader is. I just watched this missing Dramarama: youtu.be/kCi2WlBnEOQbecause of you, Ray - between this, the episode of Lulu's Party and all of Champagne on Ice, you really are knocking them out the park this month!

The earliest surviving episode is number 126 from 26 April 1965. That was only found in 2008. Other than that, the earliest surviving episode appears to be number 986, broadcast 5 December 1968. So I guess the latter was previously the earliest surviving episode? 1965 is pretty early - is there a story behind the recovery?

You're deleting posts while being abusive and one-sided yourself. You're unfit to be a moderator. It's no surprise collectors won't return items with people like you involved. I've been polite throughout, but you really do seem to have a bee in your bonnet. Bye.

To clarify, I have literally no interest in arguing the toss with anyone on here. If you don't like the way you've been moderated, then stop posting on here and go somewhere else.
The internet is full of places where posters are actively encouraged to spout their political views, no matter how repellent, misguided or idiotic they might be.

Moved this thread to the right part of the forum and deleted a load of tedious political posts. Try and stick to actually talking about tv programmes, not your personal conspiracy theories and the like (and be polite please - no name-calling!)

From personal experience of my younger relations, black and white is no obstacle at all - the pace of some 60s television, on the other hand... Oh no I'm afraid I do not share that experience. At least, it depends very much on their age now or their generation. Under 10 seems not to be terribly bothered but my own peer group can barely watch B&W; even "I Claudius" is too different for them! I suspect we're just using different definitions of young people - I assumed RTD meant children.

RTD says a modern audience are simply not interested b&w episodes... Best news I've heard all day. From personal experience of my younger relations, black and white is no obstacle at all - the pace of some 60s television, on the other hand...

To reiterate Dave's point, Angel - please take time before you post and both consider whether it's worth posting, and if you decide it definitely is, where would the best place be to post it. I'd hate to have to put you on moderated posts, but you are clearly starting to annoy multiple other posters.
In the meantime I'm locking this thread and moving it elsewhere, as it is neither anything to do with archival releases or, tbh, much to do with anything interesting at all.

I was advised over a week a go they are now in stock and being sent out.... so far my copy has yet to arrive however... To be fair, as someone who sends books and cds out every day, a week or more even for first class post is not exactly unusual with the Royal Mail nowadays.

An update: "Film is Fabulous! intend to announce lost British feature films from the 1930s and 40s, children’s television programmes from the 1960s, and all manner of film off-cuts, mute negatives and trims. These include a missing television episode that was returned by a private film collector at the event in Leicester on Sunday. The print, together with the other missing material, can now be preserved and stand as a legacy to the collectors who have cherished the films for many years." filmisfabulous.org.uk/update-on-missing-film/It's really good to see film collectors getting the praise they deserve for keeping hold of these shows. Too often (more in the past than now to be fair), I used to see people slagging them off as hoarders etc.
