That's one of the dupe copies made in the '80s.
I have no idea where he got the idea that it was Amercian though -- someone in the UK did this...
Also unclear why he would only have a 1-day auction. Seems like he'd get more for it if he listed it for a week...

My suspicion is that the original auction may have been pulled and that he's put it back up as a one day auction so that he can sell the film before the BBC can get back onto him. Richard |

Just out of curriosity, has anyone from the BBC contacted him yet ? You can contact sellers after the auction has ended as well. Just a thought.

Why would anyone from the BBC contact the seller, other than to tell him that his auction is being closed down!

I was wondering about whether the BBC would stop a Super 8 auction since that's clearly not a legitimate copy of the film (all of the legitimate prints would be 16mm)... I suspected that that might be his reasoning - hoping that they wouldn't see it and stop it ...

I thought copies were illegally made of some episodes and distributed back in the 80's. So, I never heard how this auction turned out. Did the auction close naturally, or did ebay and the BBC intervene ? I was just currious.
Thanks, Lance.

Are there any other examples of 8mm copies?

Are there any other examples of 8mm copies? Certainly The Chase #6, The Evil of the Daleks #2, The Web of Fear #1, The Wheel in Space #3 and The Invasion #6. Richard |

interesting,
and we can be sure these are reduced copies of the 16mm/35mm we know of and not of bbc origin(non official obviously)?
