Network have sent out an e-mail advertising the pre-order for the film version of the Likely Lads but on the e-mail appear to have included the wrong cover image for an otherwise unknown release not announced yet anyway which states on the cover that it includes two previously missing episodes of the tv series. When you click the link it takes you to the pre-order page but the cover is completely different and there is no mention there of those tv episodes. I take it this was a mistake but indication of their intent to release the tv episodes too.  |

Well, I normally make a slowed version of cinema films, so they run at 24fps - but the film of the Likely Lads, which has been released before, was something else.
I slowed it to 96%, but their voices still sounded too high. I slowed the slowed recording to 96% again before they sounded right.
I hope the new release gets the speed sorted out correctly!

It would be really nice if the previous Likely Lads set could be re-issued,with these two episodes added. |

Which two episodes have been found? Strong speculation but don't think it's been confirmed? |
