    When pre-recorded tapes were expensive this was the cheapest way to have a copy unless you had a local video shop with good rental rates.

    This is was a lot of old tapes found at car boot sales tend to have films on from the 1980s - 90s.
    Good point!
    Now that DVDs are dirt cheap, and Blu Rays offer better quality, a lot of people are dumping their VHS tapes.

    ITV always seemed to premiere the best movies...

    The Americans had to wait another two years until it premiered on TV in the states.
    We were lucky!

    Thanks, I remember because it was the first time I'd seen it, & thanks to The Empire Strikes Back being reshown at cinemas in early 1983 I managed to see all 3 films in order within a few months.

    Thing is a lot of times i find these scans and where i find them they say the year beside it.
    If they dont say the year on the actual page.

    Cheers for the info.

    i reckon this is from 1979, when children of the stones originally aired. Because in september 1981, the tv times was redesigned, and didn't look like this anymore.

    I think this is from 1988 as Schools programmes switched from ITV in 1987.
    Also Ralph Hardwick did not become regular in Brookside until 1985.
