  • Very interesting work. I am trying to buy a camcorder of the same guage to mimic the BBC style of shooting. I am looking into investing in an WV-3260. Any suggestions on how to make video look like your TV show (of course using the editing equipment provided such as SVHS systems).

  • The WV-3260 looks as though it would do the job. No point in using S-VHS for editing, unless you're an afficionado of old technology. The style of production was taken from Monty Python's Flying Circus (Series 2, c. 1970/71) and The Young Ones (1982-84). I suggest you watch DVDs of those shows (you can probably get them on Amazon or the BBC shop. You'll enjoy them and be inspired.

  • Are you in touch with Andrew Gardner? Could you send him a link to this vid? I don't think he's actually SEEN this yet!

    Cheers!

  • Ah, I love the young ones!
