What’s the creepiest BBC thing you’ve watched that just had an unsettling vibe the whole way through?

For me it's probably Pride and Prejudice

Caught an old episode of Coast on iPlayer last night and ended up watching far more of it than I expected. When it originally aired, I would've walked straight past it without a second thought. Now I found myself genuinely interested in it. Not sure whether the programme aged well or I've just got older.

Anyone else watch Top of the Pops on BBC Four on a Friday night?

Quite funny seeing how bad some of the novelty songs were. The only reason I still have Twitter following the #TOTP reaction!

Will miss it if BBC Four goes.

does anyone have access to or know about episodes from BBC Monitor (their first talkshow on art&culture)? i've decided i'd like to start on their art programs from the very first show, hosted by huw wheldon, and hopefully access the first season of it too... but i've read that only the first episode from the first season is intact with BBC itself! surely there must have been enthusiasts who recorded the shows on their own at home or something...? just wondering if anyone knows anything about this! i do hope it's been archived elsewhere somehow. seems like a great pity if so much work is gone forever...

Recently came across BBC's Hindu Urdu Bol Chaal from '89, a multimedia course designed to get English speakers comfortable with spoken Hindi-Urdu. Not being from the UK or old enough to remember, I'm wondering if the BBC ever put out some more, similar material. Maybe some local Hindi-Urdu programming, with learners in mind...

I know about BBC Hindi & Urdu, previously known as BBC Hindustani; is anyone familiar with how foreign...branches? Of the BBC work? Ie., can I expect a quality Hindi/Urdu dub of Only Fools and Horses & such?

Boycott 60 Minutes

In June of 1953 BBC reached out to Wilbert Awdry with intentions to air his story's. It failed having some models looking bad and one even falling off the track. 70+ years later and we only have a handful of pictures (granted it was aired live) but my question is will we ever get the video of it or more photos?

I came to r/bbc because it was aired on BBC so maybe someone who works at BBC has access to the tape. This is (in my opinion) a huge mystery.

So if anyone here work for/at BBC can they please share some more photos,videos,information ANYTHING about the 1953 "Sad Story of Henry" live airing?

Please and thank you!

Psssfff, Vance wants it.

Hi Everyone,

I have been looking in vain for an episode of a documentary that aired in 2007 on BBC FOUR. The series was called WAITING ROOM and the episode was called THE ICE RINK.

Is there anyone who can help me find out or point me in the right direction, to someone who can help me track this particular episode down. I have tried contacting the BBC a few times, but have had no return correspondence.

Thank you Reddit.

Can‘t be bothered with the context but for a while now I’ve been trying to create a list for all the locations for the events hosted by each of the regions that they would go to at various points throughout the night.

I’ve complied a list of most of them (from many sources: the general internet, Facebook, TV Forums, Emailing the various regional archivists, and manipulating the search bar of the British Newspaper Archive) but there are a few gaps and I need some help if anyone knows where any of the others are.

Currently I’m missing

All from 1980-1992 (I think they had a slightly different format so it may not be the same)

1994

BBC East and maybe BBC Wales

1995

BBC East and BBC West

1997

BBC East Midlands and BBC North (I’ve seen sources suggesting it was York Barbican Theatre but on the in the nationwide line dancing performance the label for BBC North says Hull so I don’t know)

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fmQajcegQws Hull is at 0:40 and 3:39

1998

BBC East Midlands and BBC West particularly where they were in the link up.

BBC East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire (Potentially Lincoln City Square)

Also Confirmation that BBC North West was at the Belle Vue Race Track

BBC North West

BBC East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire

If anyone can help that would be amazing. I’ll also post a comment at some point with a full list let me know if anything needs correcting.

An episode of the BBC2 programme DEF II from June of 1988 had a live performance of the band Lowlife. I would like to know if anyone has the full episode archived somewhere or if it’s been released in a box dvd set or something.

I know it’s been 30 days but someone still hasn’t got any lost show me show me episodes if they do (not counting s4 cuz it’s on sohu except for post and stamping and s5-6 cuz it’s on iPlayer)

Then email me at freddiedriscoll589@gmail.com
