The Silent Partner! Such an underrated gem. An interesting fact. The mall used as a filming location also shows up in Short Circuit 2.

Wow, The Silent Partner back on UK tv after, what, 30 years? At least that long, I would think. My favourite film when I saw it in the 80s and probably still my favourite, though I've not seen it for many years. I picked up an American dvd of it a long time ago, but the picture quality of the clip you showed was pretty good so I will definitely be watching it on Talking Pictures TV! An early appearance by John Candy as well. Great film!

Further to Noel's comment on TFD about the trade test transmissions. Yes please, I remember them well. Best one: Algerian Pipeline.

Very happy Strange But True will be showing, theres only been bad quality videos on here available recently. Theres still a huge interest in paranormal stuff however the new format is either ridiculously bad fake ghost hunter shows or those that are made up entirely of stock footage. Another bonus is that the series is mostly UK based stories.

Doomwatch! I loved that series. Up until recently I would have put money on the character of Dr John Ridge being played by Derren Nesbitt until I found out a couple of months ago that the actor was Simon Oates. That's only 52 years of misapprehension. What can I say?

[@frankshailes3205]

Derren Nesbitt was the lead character DCI Jordan in "Special Branch" around the same time and wore pretty much the same outrageous fashions!
