I have to agree John, this is now a non-starter. There were certain comments made on this forum which have scared off most people i think. The main problem is that only the consortium would have had access to copies and this collection will then be locked away by the BBC and KAL, never to be seen again because of 'copyright and clearance' issues. As for the leagality issues: 1. if the BBC were willing to turn a blind eye to have this stuff returned, i never saw a problem. 2. Distributing copies to others who would like to see this missing stuff would be an issue. How would you prevent someone from selling this stuff on? It's such a pity that something couldn't have been worked out, i fear that this collection will never see the light of day again.

John i agree the BBC should have bought it back, but i can understand the problem. If the BBC would pay £20,000 for their 'own' material that they wiped can you imagine the public outcry at the use of 'public' money to retrieve something they should'nt have junked in the first place. Only a few weeks ago they were in trouble for wasting money on leaving do's.

Obviously Kal are not going to transfer ALL of this collection, what part of this collection would get priority? (apart from totp) Does someone need to identify what is missing from the archives first ?

I think we need to 'negoitiate' a reasonable price for the collection and then try and raise the funds needed. £20,000 is a bit steep. If we had around 100-150 people willing to give between £100 and £150 we might achive our goal.
The logistics would be, we will get one DVD of each show and would then need to make 150ish copies of each one. A big task i agree but not unrealistic. After all, how many of us would want everything in the archive? (Royal weddings not my cup of tea).
Has Kal got any deals/contacts with professional DVD duplication companies that could help out with this process?
Anyway, has anyone approached Ken yet regarding a 'reasonable' price?

I think to make this viable we need around 150-200 people to contribute. Don't think many could contribute the big sums needed to keep the number lower. Does anyone know of any other 'Organisations' that could contribute? or maybe a millionaire on the forum I for one could'nt really go more than £100 ish

I seem to remember reading something along the lines that 'some' of these tapes were not playable and needed to be 'restored' (baked) before being played? (obviously not VHS/Beta). If this were the case, this would add some considerable cost to the project, wouldn't it? and if we would all require DVD copies of TOTP/Kenny Everett or whatever took your fancy, just the Totp listed by Mark would require over 400+ copies alone. How would the copy process be achived? and who would do it? It's a great idea but the logistics wouldn't seem to add up, or do they?
