Funnily it was on the US ARCHIVE's website at
https://archive.org/details/IslandOfAdventure1982Divx" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. I think it is a VHS-RIP but still it's better then nothing. I apologize for not letting all of you know, until now, I was too shy

Sorry but to make up for it you can watch TIOA! I watched and enjoyed it but, the cyanide and other liberty's they took was annoying having read the book many times. Still I enjoyed it.
That's all!

Found out an interesting piece of trivia the other day. Kiki, and the eponymous Alien from the first 'Alien' film have something in common.
Apparently, they were both voiced by Percy Edwards!

Yes I've just ordered the film from there, whether it's an official release I'm not 100% sure, but the website looks legit, and the reality is any Blyton fan isn't going to get the film anywhere else, so alas beggars can't be choosers in completing our DVD collections. It'd be much easier if all the films/TV productions were given a general release, but I'm aware that for rights reasons this isn't always possible, so we have to make do with what we can access.

In addition to the link that @MaccasAU posted, the film is also on YouTube.

Sadly, the film is so different to the book.
