I went to the same Stage School as Mark and used to play soccer with him, Mark Lester went to the same school, as did Simon Le Bon, Nicholas Lyndhurst and Ricky (Digby the biggest Dog in the World) Beaumont among many others. Mark (Dightam) is very good in Polanski's MacBeth, I think he's a DJ etc up Manchester way now.
There is nothing wrong with the sound on my Laptop (which is the only type of computer I use these days) and the film sound was recorded in mono, not stereo.
Thanks for this. The CFF films I saw as a child were Sammy's Super T-shirt and Glitterball. They really stayed with me and before youtube I searched the internet for them repeatedly, without even knowing their titles, to no avail.
I grew up in the 70s and used to hate the Children's Film Foundation. it might have been my age but it seemed so condescending. Check out 3:30 for banality. Having said this I am sure some kids enjoyed it. Not me though. BTW if Swallows and Amazons is CFF I will happily eat my rubiks cube.
My mistake for some reason I cannot pick up the sound on my pc for some reason. I tried it at my friends house and it worked fine. My flash could be out of date or it could be the format of the clip[s means my pc doesn't pick this up. Hopefully this will be rectified soon.
All other videos I have tried are working. I have tried the on and off on the mute and I still cannot hear any sound on this video except a very slight muffled hiss at the very top end. The picture quality is fine. It is a real shame as this was my best remebered CFF from the 70s. I have tried The Sky Pirates and there is sound on there crystal clear.
Anyone watching this video could they please comment on whether they can or cannot hear the sound from thier end...please!
Hmm, sound my end and 109 other people have viewed it.....is your volume turned down on the youtube player next to the play button? be amazed at the people that dont realise they muted it by accident...??

Interesting thing on the sound. I was puzzled that it works on my computer OK but I don't get sound on any of the 4 parts on my mobile phone.
Then I noticed that on the PC the sound only comes from the right stereo channel, the left is silent.
Obviously my phone only plays the left channel on stereo videos.

Quite a contrast to Peeping Tom. Thanks for uploading! It was fun.

There is audio, but only in the right channel and it's a bit quiet. Possibly a mono sound source that didn't convert very well?
