30th Anniversary of the "The Famous Five" 1978

Thanks for putting up the YouTube links, Petermax.

I'm not sure why you're getting that message, Julian. I checked Part 1 for both series and they work for me. A few months ago I couldn't get clips to play on YouTube but the problem was solved when I downloaded the latest version of RealPlayer. I don't know whether your problem is caused by anything like that? Or are some countries strict about allowing access to material under copyright? (I've no idea whether individual countries can prevent access to certain clips on YouTube.)

This is weird. I'm getting the message, "Sorry, this video is not available" for all those videos, Petermax. Have they been deleted?

I have checked and double checked all the links Julian , and they play fine in both Internet Explorer and Firefox. If you are using I.E, then you may need to download Adobe Flash Player, this will be indicated on the Youtube website if that is the case. It may be worth checking with your I.S.P to see if there are any issues with Youtube in your part of the world.

There seem to be two threads running on this topic, this one and the 78 Series Poll thread - both discussing the same subject. Would it be possible to combine them? I have just watched one episode, and am looking forward to the discussion on the 3rd.

[Petermax]

I agree, two threads on the same subject could dilute matters somewhat. Perhaps the poll thread could be locked and a suitable diversion URL posted?

I don't mind if you continue the discussion in here.Quite the opposite it's much better not to have too much threads on the same subject.But I wish to suggest a new moderator for this special kind of discussion.

Such is the beauty of the E.B.S Forum is that there are no real hard and fast rules except during the rare occasions when the Trolls decide pay us a visit!

May I gracefully decline the honour bestowed upon me? I am but a mere foot soldier and prefer to remain that way, an officer I am not.

Now I really must get a few beers in and re-aquaint myself with the two TV versions of Smuggler's Top. For good measure I also intend to re-read the book!
