For all may be wishful thinking that any of these exist, the one I'd love to be there is the first R3 episode. |

Try booking a viewing session for it www.bfi.org.uk/nftva/rvs.htmlIf they don't have it ... they'll soon find out and let you know! (And then amend the database if prompted) And if they do have it ... bingo! |

If I lived in England I would. Two possibilites: 1: You cancel whatever the situation is once they confirm it's existance or not. (If not you won't have to cancel) 2: You request viewing at the associate BFI facilities in Northern Ireland - which is the QFT Belfast if memory serves. You don't pay up front .. only on arrival .. so you can't be out of pocket by cancelling. |

As I said over in the Mausoleum Club thread...
"I don't think there's any reason to believe that all of the entries reflect the presence of a copy of the episode at the BFI. It's simply an ongoing project to create a database of television programmes that were *made*, not that exist. "
Try checking out a few missing Doctor Who titles, for instance!

Steve A suspect a hybrid .. e.g. the HTV serials "King of the Castle" and "The Georgian House" ... both are referenced as 7 part serials as regards TX dates .. but only individual episodes which survive/reside at the BFI have specific entries ... .. i.e. only eps 1 and 7 of "Georgian" and all eps of "King of the Castle" EXCEPT eps 3 If the listing was purely all the eps made, then surely they would all be listed? |

The database is a mismash of their holdings and a general UK TV database.
