Guardian newspaper feature - Television Treasures

[nellfrizzell]

Hello everyone,

I hope you don't mind me posting on here as a new member. I'm writing a piece for The Guardian about 'television treasures'; lost episodes hidden on VHS in your attic, props from favourite shows, a piece of costume, merchandise or a prize won on a game show - anything like that. 
If this if you, I'd love to talk to you. It will be a big piece in G2, very friendly. My deadline is Thursday so I'd be looking to do interviews tomorrow (12th December) or Wednesday (13th). 
Thank you so much!

Nell

"It may seem strange that in an era of archives, internet databases and online auctions, treasures can still get lost. But nosing around on the gloriously lo-fi website missing-episodes.com I realise just how many slices of television history have been wiped, erased, junked or simply taped over; and how many people dedicate significant time to finding them. People like Ray Langstone."

Well done, Ray! Nice to see you get some wider recognition.

Pity they don't allow comments, it might've been useful.
