And we have another find!
'Beginnings', 'You Can't Do That Without a Hat', 'The Thirty-Minute Work Week' and 'I Don't Care' have all been found. Domestic off-airs as usual, but from what I've seen of them so far they're in reasonable shape.
9 to go...

Apparently.
"we received the following note from a Geoff and Helen Warner. They tell us,
We were friends of Victor Pemberton for many years until he died in August this year. Victor produced the 4th Series of Fraggle Rock and we have many master VHS of various episodes taken at the time of recording the show. Many of the titles are not thought to exist anymore. Those who are interested in learning more and making offers can contact the pair below. It’s not just Fraggle Rock — they have many other of Victor’s work, including his own production company program on Benny Hill. But I think it’s the Fraggle Rock that will get the most attention...".

Great news, I noticed the recent DWM feature on Victor Pemberton mentioned he worked on Fraggle Rock.
